Bought a spare battery for my mini and it says 1500mAh as opposed to 1200mAh on stock battery.
Is this likely to be real and if so how much will it improve battery life (if at all)?
Is there a way I can test it to see how many mAh it is?
FYI it works in mini fine and good health battery monitor says...
Since you already bought it, you are the one to tell us about the autonomy
Concerning the test, I don't know about that...
PS: I almost bought one like that for me, probably the same manufacturer (China)

I bought mine on amazon for about £1.45 and £0.99 postage mostly for watching movies next week on a loooong trip so I can switch battery. I bought the battery thinking it was standard to be honest so i wasn't expecting anything special
I will update if I notice any significant difference. Perhaps it will have the placebo effect? Hahahaha
Now came to my mind: don't you need to calibrate the battery on every switch? Since the battery charge/discharge is controlled by software. And the extra 300mAh is theoreticaly "invisible"...

The 1250 is strained in it's shell so i doubt it.
It woldn't do much, a switch to CM7.2.0 RC1 Mebitek will do more if you are not running it.
Hello, I am thinking to order a new battery.
I did some research and I found couple high capacity batteries which you can see below, I would like to hear your opinions about those batteries also my present battery it's discharging very fast and below 20% energy phone suddenly is turning off so I decided the problem reason is battery, is that true? anyway what do you think about those batteries? Perhaps you can suggest me something better? thanks in advance.
disadvantage a non-standard cover which is a bit bigger than original one but big capacity
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAMSUNG-G...ltDomain_3&hash=item35b2149ecd#ht_3696wt_1447
big capacity but not same as below battery
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/P209-2430...ltDomain_3&hash=item256f1bdf7a#ht_2409wt_1037
the original one, doesn't have big capacity
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-S...ultDomain_3&hash=item4159667a91#ht_500wt_1156
You should search for the I9001 (sgs+) battery....
It will work in you I9000 but it is better than the original from I9000
Iam using this battery (for sure i got a I9001 xD) and it works fine
Im playing, chatting and listening to music a lot and i have to charge the battery once in 2 days
Hope this might fit to your problem
i think 1600mAh

One of them should do it for u
you dont really need the speicification for I900 the batterys work in differnt phones so an I9001 battery works perfectly in ur I900
The battery used in the Galaxy Camera is the same one as used in the Samsung Galaxy S II. So you can pick these up for less than £10 so it's no problem keeping 1 or 2 spare with you when you're out and about.
Due to the nature of this camera, the battery performance isn't fantastic as expected and Sammy should have put a bigger capacity cell in there. But at least replacements are easy to come by.

I hate to ask this question and get blasted if it's already been answered elsewhere...but this seemed like the most logical place for it. I know the different versions of the Galaxy s2 have different batteries.
Which one would one use on the Galaxy Camera. Going on a trip over to Asia and don't want to have to recharge the camera every 10 minutes. Saw two versions from Anker on Amazon and was hoping someone could steer me in the right direction. Because I'm a noob I can't save you time and post the links.
Much appreciated. Don't hate me.
Mate get the Anker twin pack which comes with a free battery charger. BARGAIN! and they are great i use them in my Galaxy Camera.

Thanks that's exactly what I was looking to do. But my dumb question is that there seems to be many variations of the 2 batteries and charger. Different mAH levels that say they only work for specific versions of the GS2. I'd hate to buy a battery that was too big with only a few days left before my trip and not enough time to exchange.
I assume that the different batteries that work with specific GS2s means that only one version works with the camera. Sorry to be such a douche about it. 1900 mAH that doesn't work with s2 II(SGH-I727) or s2 II(SGH-T989. 2200 mAH that doesn't work with S2I9100 etc. I don't know if you have as many versions to worry about on amazon as we do in the states since we have different carriers on different wireless technologies.
As long as the batteries fit shape-wise they should work. Anyway: the correct type is EB-F1A2GBU, 1650mAh.
But be careful, there are loads of fakes out there, just bought two (ok, they were unreasonable cheap) and they won't fit into the camera's battery slot (too thick).

I bought 2 x Galaxy S2 1800mAh batteries and a charger for £9 off eBay and they work without any problems. I know there are 'fakes' out there with regards to the capacities but I have used ebay for replacement universal batteries for years for a whole range of phones and (so far) no problems. As ever pick a seller with good ratings and read the feedback etc and I don't see why you'd have any issues.
Regarding compatibility, I just used the original battery model number: EB-F1A2GBU and searched from there.

Just use Samsung original battery for Galaxy S II GT-I9100....
Samsung release two models, 1650mAh like the one that comes default on GT-I9100, and 2000mAh official extended battery. The size is the same, so both can be used with SGC.
When I bought mine at the AT&T store here in NY, they gave me a Samsung charging kit for free. The kit has a Samsung battery charger and an extra Samsung battery.
I'm jealous, I didn't get this kit when I bought mine from AT&T. :/

In Indonesia, if you buy this on the launching day, you get battery kit (1x 1650mAh battery + 1x external charger) and protective film for the display :laugh:
I bought mine from att as well. I actually asked if there were any promotions going on for the camera and that's when they brought up the charger. They didn't volunteer the information. Go back into the store and ask.

Both can fit as long as they are Samsung original battery for SGS2.
I can't say the same for other non official 2000mAh (or more) extended battery :fingers-crossed:

Can i use Samsung Battery Charger Stand for Galaxy S II to recharge the Galaxy Camera original batteries?
As the batteries are exactly the same model they will fit in the charger, so absolutely, yes.

Last but not least...can i use Galaxy Camera charger to charge the battery with the charger stand? The output of the Galaxy Camera charger is 5V 1A but the input of the charger stand is 5V 0.7A...

You can use all accessories from the galaxy s2 and galaxy cam for the batteries.
The batteries are 100% identical. But be careful, there are extremly many fake-batteries out there.
It took me three times to buy really original batteries.

I heard that the batteries are also the same as the AT&T Galaxy S II (not the Captivate version). Is this true?

Hi,
I'm looking to replace the stock 1500mAh battery in my nearly 2-year-old Galaxy S. I've had a look around a notice their are some high capacity ones available. However, I'm not looking for those "extended" packs, it needs to have the same dimensions as the stock battery in order to fit into the case I use. I have no idea which manufacturers are reliable, can somebody help me out?
Check the Galaxy S I9000 Accessories section, many battery discussions there

ok so just now i had a look of the AT&T S3 Mini specs over at www.samsung.com and saw that it is listed as having a 2000mah battery, yet the phone dimensions of the new model are a little bit smaller than the ones on the I8190. So would it be possible to put the 2000mah battery from the SM-G730A into my I8190, which originally has just a 1500mah battery (i have a 1700mah one from the Ace 2, but i want more ).
And please don't tell me that there are external chargers, extended batteries or stuff like that. I know about those things, but don't wanna add bulkness to my phone or to be forced to always carry the external charger with me
Have a nice day !

I don't have that phone but as long as it fits, connectors and voltage the same you can use it.
I did this before with my Galaxy W since the shop I went didn't have my exact model.
Or you can buy same size 3rd-party battery that claims 2000mah (I am using one), but I think the numbers are overated. I didn't feel the 2000mah battery last longer than original one.

can you give a link to such a battery 'cause i can't seem to find it on the net? BTW my 1700mah battery just stopped charging to 100% from yesterday (only goes to 96 max and then stops). Not that it's a big deal, but 4% is 4% (about 4 hours stand-by time).
