I have found that extended batteries don't compare to getting 2 extra stock batteries and a wall charger that charges them outside of the phone. Always keep one battery on the charger, and the other in your pocket (the third in the phone). When one runs out, switch with the backup in your pocket. Then, throw the spent battery on the wall charger when you get home and take off the freshly charged one that is waiting for you there. By the time you finish using the battery in your phone again, the one on the wall will be charged. You will always have 1-2 full batteries on you! Plus they are now skinny enough to fit in your wallet which is nice if you lose things a lot.

Also if you're a real freak about batteries you can keep a charger and a 4th battery in your car

I like the official extended battery with the more rounded cover, so I bought two and switch them out as needed. I can be away from an outlet for a long weekend with one in the phone and a spare.

That's why you get one 3500mah extended battery that lasts ya an entire day of heavy use and even 2-3 days of real light use.

Default Standard Batteries

I know this thread says extended batteries but i didnt want to open up another battery thread.
Has anyone had any experience with the following batteries?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ht_2719wt_1270

I have contacted the seller they claim for the batteries to support NFC, addtionally says they will fit with the regular battery cover so im well aware that the claim of 1900 mAh is likely way off. Can any one point me in the direction of relatively inexpensive, but good quality, NFC standard batteries?

The cases I've ordered along with my GNex will not fit the extended battery.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus - GSM (i9250) - Slim Bean(latest) | Franco Kernel (latest nightly) | My_GNex_settings (512 Read_ahead_kb | adjusted Row settings | color_settings)

Samsung T-Mobile Vibrant - ICZen (4.0.4)

ASUS Transformer Prime - Androwook
