Where to purchase a legit replacement battery for the Note 2?

Anyone found where to buy a real, new, OEM battery made by Samsung? I haven't had much luck with battery life with aftermarket batteries.

Apart from carrier stores? Too many fakes out there IMO. I went with Anker, through their Amazon store and it's served me well up to today. (Not going to be used much in the near future because shamu )

Yea I'm a fan of Anker. Once mine needs a replacement, that's what I'll be getting.

I just bought an Anker a couple of months ago. Great replacement battery for my NOTE 2. Battery life is great.

I know this is a fairly old post, I bought a new OEM battery direct from Samsung for $24...I swear it lasts twice as long as the eBay knockoffs.

So...where? How? That's what the OP was asking. Provide a link.
And I'd like to know where to get a legit replacement stylus. The two I got from Ebay and Amazon were crap.

is it their link? Anker?

I live in Italy and discovered Anker just seeing around Amazon.
I think it's a good product IMO and I think that if I have problems with my battery I'll change it with Anker's battery

I read a lot of people had problems with the Anker batteries swelling up and only lasting a few months before the battery life fell on its face.
You can go to samsung's website and buy the batteries right from them.
We were going to do that with our note 2's...but an OTA update killed my wife's phone so we decided to upgrade both phones.

Unfortunately, this link is no longer valid. There are so many knock offs out there that I'm worried about buying from anyone other than Samsung. Not sure if they're genuine but there's the dock and battery combo on Amazon and Rakuten for slightly less.

Got a Duracell from a Batteries Plus brick-and-mortar by my house back in June, and it has been "zero-problem" for me (knock on wood).

Thanks for the info. How's the charge time, SOT and idle time? Is it comparable to the original battery? My original SDI (Samsung Korea manufactured) is still running strong after 3 years with 7 to 8 hrs SOT but I want to have a spare considering it's harder to find the older it gets.
Anyone going this route should take advantage of the 10% off or $5 off promos.

IMO...
...charge time is pretty good, "seems" a bit better than what I recall for the OEM Samsung battery.
...SOT is OK for what I use the phone for everyday, which is just as a phone/texting, some internet surfing, light video watching (kodi, slingtv, mlb.tv).
... idle time is pretty good. Some nights I go to bed at 100% and wake up 6-7 hours later and it's at 93%. My issue is the location of my router, so the wifi drops sometimes and toggles back and forth b/w wifi and 3/4G data while sleeping. Those mornings it's down into the 85% range.
As always, YMMV based on your config. I'm on Chaz's NE2 Classic Stock, with small mods for sd card r/w cache, adaway, TiB scheduled, etc.

Weird. I just looked at that Samsung battery a week or so ago.

go to eBay look up zerolemon and get the extended battery adds bulk to the phone but when u get about three days out of it it's OK

I order battery on E-Bay for my n7100 i use to order MPJ 8500 mAh, this is good extended battery with lot of mAh this is my 2nd this i can recommend........!

I'm another Anker man, at least as good if not better than the stock battery.

Recommendation for a Battery Replacement?

Has anyone found a good seller for a battery replacement? The one I found on Ebay sold a BM4C battery but after a couple of weeks of testing I noticed the charge wasn't what I was used to. Using battery monitoring apps I found it was only charging up to around 60% cap. Looking for a better replacement.

Same here. Took the hassle to change my battery to finally have the exact same charge.

After a bad experience with ipartsexperts (~58% capacity according to Accubattery), I got a very good one from AliExpress. A new battery 2020-04. Got 88% capacity, almost like new.

Thanks. Is it hard to replace ? Never did on a Mi Mix.

It depends if you ever opened a sealed phone before. It was my second time. It is not that hard and I used two YouTube video specifically made from the Mi Mix to guide me. A good suction cup and credit cards are your friends. Some tools came with the battery and may be sufficient, but I invested in better tools for my first time.
One tricky part is that I didn't notice that a screw was under a Mi sticker and had a hard time to remove the plate over the motherboard, but once you see it, it is easy.

How is the battery holding up for you? I got mine in December and it was working well in the beginning (3800-4100 mAh according to BattteryGuru) but now after two months it's down to <1000 mAh.

Battery replacment with higher capacity

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to know if anyone has had any experience with using third party batteries for the N950. Specifically batteries with extended capacity. I have seen a handful of these batteries which say they have a 3600mah capacity over the stock battery capacity of 3300mah. They also say that they are Li-Po over the stock Li-Ion.
I cant post the link due to XDA rules but there are batteries available on Amazon under the title :
Galaxy Note 8 Battery ZURUN 3600mAh Li-Polymer Battery
The battery appears to have good ratings and would be a fitting upgrade for a decayed battery. I'm just asking if anybody with experience would recommend these batteries, are they real(in terms of spec), would the higher capacity effect the device negatively? And most importantly are they safe?
Any help would be appreciated!

Although I have no experience with batteries for the Note 8 as of yet, but from previous experience, I would recommend only official batteries. Even if these non official batteries are the correct mah, they will not have the same amount of cycles, so you will probably go through 2 or 3 of these batteries for the life of the official one.

I have had my Note 8 since the day it came out and I'm still using the same battery and I still get well over 8 hours of usage before I need to recharge it. I only charge it to 90% and I never let it discharge fully it's usually back on the charger whenever it gets near 20%. A friend of mine decided to put a 4,000 mah battery in his Note 8 only to find out that it wouldn't charge to 4,000 and it was dying much much faster than the original battery and it took even longer for it to charge back up so I wouldn't recommend getting aftermarket parts for it.

Huh, as for my device, I got it recently pre owned however the previous owner didn't take anywhere near as much care of my device as it seems your taking care of yours. So the battery capacity is pretty decayed and I've found it hard to get a healthy OEM battery online.
With my current new but unhealthy battery I wouldn't be able to protect it as I would like to by using the charging ranges you do. Tho I do really want to!
So I was thinking a new third party battery could be better than a 'new' oem. But again just another gamble it seems haha.
Thanks a lot for your advice!

Ifixit, who are reputable imo, have a link for the official battery . I would advise skipping Amazon/Ebay for it. Although it is €25, it is worth it. (They also sell all the tools you will need for replacing it and all the steps!

Replacement battery Quality

Greetings everyone. First of all, sorry for my bad English, im a bit rusty.
I have been using this smartphone since Dec 2019, it runs perfectly fine to this day, but as expected battery is starting to show some signs of fatigue. In a colder enviroment phone will turn off with about 20% battery remaining. I average about 4h SOT, moderate usage (Youtube, Web Browsing and Social media). Battery health apps estimate around 70% of battery health.
My actual question is what is your experience with replacement batteries? They are really hard to find, but i managed to get one for around 15 euros. It is probably some AliExpress copy, as OEM battery is not possible for me. Should i keep using my original battery further or should i replace it now? I fear that AliExpress battery might bloat in short amount of time.
I know that the best/forced solution is to get a new phone, but i can't afford that right now.

Just try and use the one which suits you

I've used the Lehehe 4000 mAh battery for around 1,5 years without any negative side effects. Only the back glas did not fully stick, but this was fixed with later batches from that battery according to other guys on Telegram.
Because I found this to be annoying after some time, I got the Nohon 4000 mAh a month ago. Works perfectly fine so far and the back fits nicely. I would've gone with Lehehe again, but they stopped delivering to Germany, so Nohon was my only option and I've already seen good feedback about it online.
Battery life was really good with both of these. Just make sure to clean the back glas and attachment areas on the phone and apply new tape to glue it on.

I've replaced battery with Nohon 4000mAh. The real capacity is above 3700mAh and after 6months of usage it still works, so you should definetely try to change battery at least for the 3300mAh.

Nohon battery

I wanna buy new battery but i didn't find original battery so I heard about nohon battery,,so if anyone tried it please tell me your opinion on it ,, thank you advance

I don't know what you mean. Check here and select BM4E.

Fixed 4 phones with those so far.
One of those phones (OnePLus 8) crapped out after a year. Turns out nohon batteries are *not* taking fast charging well. For slow charging phones (15/22W), they seem ok so far.
Expect 5-10% worse capacity than original battery. Which is a pretty good number as far as aftermarket batteries go.

They have Official Store in AliExpress from the link I sent you (select BM4E as I said). You should buy from there. The battery capacity is 3900/4000 as the original.

I got the battery sealed few months ago around April or May, but I installed it just recently at Friday to my device. I cannot give that info but they have 6months warranty and I am pretty sure will last more than 1 year.
At this point I think it's your best choice tbh.

November 2021 I think. The phones (iPhone 8, Samsung S9, Redmi 8 Note Pro) seem to run all fine, perhaps the batteries are aging slightly faster, but I expect em to last at least 1-2 years or so more.
That 1+8 which just crapped out fairly recently - battery swelled and started losing capacity rapidly and eventually refused to charge completely. All in span of a month after a year of running ok.
The owner of that phone was using its warp charging (0% to 50% under 30 minutes, daily) pretty heavily, which is what ruined the original battery in the first place (that one had around 70% after <2 years).

Okay thank you,,seems it's best option available now

Anyone know how i can get it from Germany ? AliExpress say it's not available to your country

I've been using a Nohon Battery in my Poco F1 since last April. Currently it is at about 80/81% capacity. I don't know if it's within the average wear range, but I thought it was a little fast, I don't know. Fast charge works great, battery life has been better, I've been changing ROMs lately, but I think it's standard. I bought it through Alliexpress and I received it here in Brazil in a month + or -
What I really wanted was to buy an original from Xiaomi, but here in Brazil they simply don't sell it. I've already read someone here saying that in India they sell the original, but unfortunately there's no way to import it here to my country. If anyone knows how I can get an original nateria, I'd appreciate it. But Nohon has served me very well.

The original battery in my case lost 10% capacity every 10 months, down to 80% by the 20 month mark (little over 600 battery cycles ) and further reduced to 65% in 30 months. Would have been higher but for bypass charging which I figured out how to enable just after 20 months. The new official battery is down to 92% after 8 months despite bypass charging being enabled from the very beginning (just 79 battery cycles ).

What would this bypass charging be? Something related to smart charging? What does not loading up to 100% consist of?

After reaching the desired battery charge level say 60% as long as the device is plugged it draws power from the AC Mains instead of the battery and the battery discharges even by 1%. This is actually the default behavior if the device is charged to 100%. Of course full charge and plugged in is not great from battery longterm health POV so root is necessary to tweak permissions of a couple of files to reduce the max. battery charging voltage which effectively caps the maximum battery charge level. No micro-cycles in contrast to Smart Charging which is anyway incompatible with bypass charging.
P.S. According to some this isn't true bypass charging whatever that means. However after replacing the battery I had used the device plugged in for most of 10 days and the battery cycle count increased by 1. Baikal OS since A12 at least included this feature OOTB. Root wasn't necessary but SELinux was Permissive. I don't know which is a greater vulnerability from security POV.

That’s our possibility…
I didn’t try it yet

One F1 user had good things to say about a third-part battery bought from eBAY UK.... I kinda regret not buying a 2nd replacement battery when they were being sold dirt cheap by Xiaomi India mid-last year. Some months later spare parts incl. the battery have been permanently discontinued.
