This battery for the galaxy 4, does it look the same as the extended battery for the Galaxy 3? The G3 has that piggy backed battery. Just from what I can see via the photo, the battery for the G4 doesn't look like a piggy backed type! am I correct in that assumption? What comes; is it the same type (size & shape) battery as what the phone originally comes with when first purchased?

I don't know anything about the S3 battery. This battery is at least double the thickness of the normal S4 battery that comes with the phone. It's length and width are the same as the regular S4 battery.

Not sure about the S3. The Hyperion works GREAT in the S4. Though it is larger, heavier, and requires a new plastic back (included), it will hold a couple of days charge for my usage patterns. This makes the S4 a very useful smartphone.

I would venture to say that since the housing is different the batteries are different dispute the similarities.

Best thing you could ever do is make sure you have original Samsung Galaxy s3Mini battery. The ACTUAL battery-not "compatable", not " replacement for", etc., no imitations! Four pin connector BEST. I'm having trouble with my S4 battery, because of "compatable" battery charger designed for s3. Use original parts always!

I dont know. I own a g2, and ive only handle a g3 a few times. It seems to be about the same size.

No, the phones are different in shape and the configuration of the camera is different. The s3 is thicker front to back than the s4, and the camera lens and flash are horizontal if I remember, whereas they're vertical on the s4. You can probably find good pics to illustrate this if you just look up the phones themselves on amazon. I'm sure they'll have multiple angles. There are however many other options out there for a good price, just always be sure they say they're for the phone in question. I always read reviews as well.

A friend of mine did add the extended battery to his HTC Droid 2, and it worked fine. However, I have switched to a samsung Galaxy III because my HTC Droid 2 was acting very strange. So, I would say that the battery works OK, but, you might be careful not to invest much in that phone, as several people I have talked to have had problems with it.

not sure but you can compare the dimensions for each to check. but personally I doubt it bc most extended batteries add to the phone's size and the s4 may not have the same dimensions as the s3

I have never used a extended battery I am on my second battery since I have had the phone I have had the phone for a long time.When I needed to replace the battery I bought one on line its a lot cheaper.

I just read the "one star" reviews... the one I received is working just fine, and is an exact look alike to the battery that came with my phone. That is all I can say to you, it seems like my experience is not the same to all.

Hi Diandra. Thanks for your message. I did some research and both the Galaxy S3 and 4 are the same size 5.38 x 2.78 x 0.34 inches. You should be able to use the same charger. You can confirm with the company. Have a great day.

I use it for my regular S3 battery. If your extended use battery looks teh same I wouldn't think there would be a problem. It's works great with my regular battery.

Actually, I asked this same question and was told no. BUT, I bought it anyway, removed the plastic insert that came with it, and glued in the plastic case that came with this battery: Yesoo 4300mAh Samsung Galaxy S3 Extended Battery, Pebble Blue Cover, Extended TPU Case - Blue, Exclusive Black And Green Color Key Chain Kit, and it works great. It is a little snug, I may not be able to put my credit cards in, but that wasn't my objective in the first place. I actually ordered a second wallet to use with the regular battery that came with the phone. The whole process was simple, it snapped out easily and I used hot glue to make the change.

My order was filled by Cell Talk. The product appears to be a factory replacement, but I am always sceptical when the price is so low. My S3 has turned into a dog, so the battery was not my problem. The replacement works great. They had it shipped to me right away, it was a good experience. Hope this helps...

The phone is almost exactly twice as thick as the stock battery that comes with the phone. I am not sure how that compares to the extended battery by Samsung.

I bought an extra batt from Amazon as well and both batteries, the one that came with the phone (tmob s3) and the recently purchased one work ok. I think the newer battery is flaky. It only shows about 80% after charging overnight. Doesn't say that there's circuitry in the charger to prevent overcharging, but it does take a looong time to charge. IMO the slow charging cycle extends the life of the battery. There's a battery charge indicator light that shows RED when charging and BLUE when the battery is fully charged. Hope that helps.

Same charger is used. The charger plugs into the phone just as it does with the current battery. The only noticable difference you will have with the extended battery is the new back cover and it sticks out more than the standard battery.

Currently Zerolemon doesn't make extended batteries for the Galaxy Note 4, but I'm sure they will very soon. They put out the galaxy s3, s4 and s5 batteries within 3 or 4 months of their respective launches. Their website is Zerolemon.com

I will say the battery works as well if not better than my original Samsung battery that came with my phone and charges quickly. I was only going to use the TrendON battery as a spare but i actually use it often interchanging all the batteries and i read that just helps keep the batteries longer. The length the battery keeps a charge is the same.
