Cover replaces the original battery cover and is made of same material as factory s4 cover. You will use factory charger and it will fit the ATT S4. Great battery, glad I got it. If you want a case that fits the phone with extended battery perfectly look at the Hyperion Samsung Galaxy S4 Extended Battery HoneyComb Matte TPU Case / Cover **Hyperion Retail Packaging** . Sold in various colors also.

It is a hard shell very similar to the original cover. You can still use the factory charger with it. I would definitely consider buying a protective case to cover your phone too (I got a nice case LAZA was the brand for $19.99). My S4 is US Cellular & it fit perfectly, I think an S4 is an S4 so you shouldn't have any problems.

The cover for the back is a hard shell and smooth. (I dropped it a couple of times). It will charge fine in the phone (when the phone is plugged in) and it will charge with various 3rd party chargers (not included with this). If you are asking about charging it up in a Samsung recharging case - the kind with the lid that closes, I believe you can charge it in that, but the lux won't close, so it's a little awkward. My phone is a Galaxy S4, from ATT.

It is for standard phone w/o extended batt, the case is nice the clip is a little weak I sugust wraping stainless wire around the clip to prevent damage hope tis was helpful.

The battery is about double the thickness. The back cover makes the phone itself about double the thickness as well. However with the stock battery I was charging my phone every day, now I am charging every 3rd day. I ordered the 4200 Hyperion battery and back cover. I also ordered the Extended Battery TPU case in black to protect the phone in case I drop it. The TPU case is sold by YESOO for $7.99... it is a get overall improvement. Good luck.

Yes, It has the hard shell back for the larger battery and then a soft rubber outer case. It fits snugly and provides a better grip for the phone and some protection for the screen.

Hi Beans,Our Galaxy S4 Neo Hybrid will fit over the official Samsung Wireless Charging Battery Cover. There might be a slight budge, however, it should not be noticeable. Our Galaxy Slim Armor will not fit over the official Samsung Wireless Charging Battery Cover. If you have any more questions, contact us at cs@spigen.com.Sincerely,SPIGEN SGP

It covers the plastic backing which came with the battery. So the battery snaps in, add the included back piece, then this cover goes over all.

You will need a new back cover for your phone. Then use this as a protective case. If you buy the battery online, usually the new back cover is a suggested item to be purchased.

I tested it through a somewhat thick piece of plastic (baseball card holder), and it still charged. However, the entire back panel is more bulky than the normal, so I am not able to use my previous case on the phone. Shouldn't be an issue with the more lenient protective cases

I have an S4 and it does fit it great. I have a iRing attachment on the back of my phone case and it still fits, although annoyingly. I don't know how much bulk the battery adds, but the extension of length is fine for your phone.

This case is for a Galaxy S3, NOT the S4. Whether you have the factory battery or extended doesn't matter, you need to look for an S4 case. The S3 and S4 accessories are not interchangeable.

It is made of a very flexible neoprene. Stretches to fit almost anything. No problems with my s4 w/ commuter case.

If its for a S4, it should be flat. The battery that was sent to me was half the size so I threw it out. I did not really look at it once I saw it wasn't going to work.

I don't know what you bought, but mine is a hard case and it works fine. I clip it onto my belt and slide the phone into it.

Hello. I only know of the cover that this comes with, that takes the place of the original/stock back cover of the phone; which I had problems with due to cheap plastic, the clips broke very easily, so the cover would not stay on. As far as a full case to buy, I don't know. Good luck if you find one. I don't even use this battery anymore because of the cheap back that it came with, as explained. But the battery itself is great. Again, I hope you find what you're looking for. I'd like to know if you find one too. Maybe I'll look into getting one then.

Not the case I received. It's a nice fit for my S4 but not with even the thinnest case. The Bionic is about 3mm thinner and 3mm thicker than the S4. An extended battery and case, especially an Otterbox, would make the overall package too big. Other than that, it's a nice case.

I use the same battery in my unit. There was no plastic wrap on it.. it is really snug in its holder.. I had to really fit it in there and just plug the charger into it..
