Maybe thickness wise the phone is near the defender, but it definitely feels smaller since the sides go inward.

Anyone know of a belt clip to hold the zerolemon and its back? I decided to ditch the otterbox. Too bulky.

Is there any charger/dock that I can use to charge the zl separately without having to modify it while im running the stock battery on my phone?
so, charged this thing up for 15 hours, and started it up this morning; within 30 minutes I have gone to 96% from 100...is something wrong with my battery, or does it take a complete charge/discharge cycle to calibrate itself?
I did wipe my phone and restore a back up,plus do all the normal email checking and stuff, but I was under the impression it wouldnt budge off 100% for at least a few hours..
thanks!

Everyone who thinks there is something with the battery, just give it a few cycles. Most people claim that the battery will discharge a few % in a matter of minutes but would stay at let's say 70% for hours. Your phone can only guess the % so you're best off turning off your phone percentage and quit worrying about it. The battery is 3x the size, it's going to last you for a while.
Serious claim without any proof.
That Mugen is vastly overpriced. Better to just buy 2 extra batteries from Anker for 25 bucks.

I really like the looks of the one in your link, but would like to have the option for a clip rather than just a belt loop.
Then you got a bad one or you're doing something wrong. I tested the ZL outside the phone, on a stand-alone discharge tester. It came it slightly above the sticker rating. It's the first extended battery I've ever tested that does. I have not tested Mugen or Sedio, I find them very overpriced. In the phone, I do get 3x the life of my stock battery. Ignore the stupid android % indicator. It's a guess. The only test that matters is 100% to turn off time in a phone, or a real external discharge test.
OK, so YOU have been a member of XDA community since 2012 and have 43 posts in here. EVERY SINGLE post promoting MUGEN battery.
I'm not trying to be XDA "police", we got our own distinguish admins and real cops on this forum
If you want to promote YOUR battery, I could care less. But if you come here to trash the competition with false accusation - that is NOT COOL!!! Just ask a few other vendors who no longer members of this forum.

He obviously gets paid by Mugen or work for them. Look at his previous posts, within a month he posted all the links directing people to get to mugen site. Admin, ban his account please? i signed up just to write this
Another reason not to buy overpriced, fake mah mugen batteries
I have both the Mugen and the ZeroLemon and they are both fine batteries that in my experience live up to their claims.
With the Mugen(6400mAh) I get double the stock battery(3100mAh) life and with the ZL(9100mAh) I get triple the stock battery life.
One is not better than or worse than the other. The ZeroLemon simply has more juice, that is the difference. Oh and the price. Mugen being too high probably.
Just my opinion after owning and using both.

ZL is clearly better in every persepctive except for ths case..
I personally cannot justify Mugen's pricing, they are aiming higher profit margin than apple
Oh well, some people like to spend money for nothing, so be it

I had few cycles so far from my ZL battery, and i could not be happier with battery life
Note: Phone is no stock/not rooted. Power saving on ocassionally
Typical battery life from my stock battery was 1~2 days with 6~8 hours of screen time
Zero Lemon
First charge: screen brightness auto / power saving / mostly wifi
over 2 days and half use with 24+ screen on time 8% battery left
Second charge: brightness auto / wifi and lte
over 3 days use with 20+ screen on time with some juice left
Since then i am using full screen brightness with lte because i cannot drain this thing
with 100% brightness with everything on i get over 16 hours of screen time, which is amazing
This is the first time that i do not worry about battery for my "smart" phone absolutely
Yeah, don't listen to anyone saying bad things about the zerolemon battery. I'm a moderate/heavy user. I use my phone for navigation/music (always simultaneously when driving to new locations in an area I just moved) a lot, have bluetooth always on with my pebble or for headphones when needed, gmail sync, never on wifi unless I'm browsing at home (i know wifi on even idle apparently saves battery but I'm too lazy to do that every time, lol), location settings always on except gps (until necessary for navigation), auto screen brightness, sms popup with fast blink setting, Advanced Task Killer Free without killing apps that keep opening up and using it frequently to close apps that I no longer am using (killing system/constant open apps like maps will drain your batter because these apps will fight you and keep restarting). I text a good amount, and my calls vary from minutes to an hour on and off but not too often compared to texting. I also live in a very excellent 4G LTE area with 5 bars always.
I am on perseus 35 kernel with CleanRom Ace 4.5 (smoothest for me so far - might try 4.9 soon because CleanRom doesn't disappoint).
I've officially been off the charger for 55 hours with all of the above having been done at many points in that time period and my phone is still at 77%.
This battery can easily go for 5-6 days if you use it the way I do. This is also on the first 12 hour charge...so if everyone claims that it gets better with the discharging of 5 cycles...I might be able to even push 7 days. I'll keep you all updated...but a battery that can last a week? That's insanely awesome in my book. If you guys have any questions or need advice on apps or kernel settings let me know.
Perseus Kernel 35: CPU:1400/300 (for some reason keeping it at 300 avoids freezes of any kind- odd but true- this is also what you need to do if you guys use the big 4G/5G profiles so the phone won't ever bootloop). GPU: 640. I/O Scheduler: Zen/Zen. LED Settings: Fast blinking, No fade. Audio: Headphone Boost at 63 (57 standard). Btw, even if you put the cpu max at 1600 or 1800 - the battery won't be that much affected...I've tried it. The kernel/rom combo is that good.
If anyone has better/more realistic tips for performance and battery life, feel free to share/add to this. Sorry for the super long post. Thank you

Mugen and Zerolemon both make awesome batteries, Mugen just charges more money.
That's their prerogative. Doesn't mean anything is wrong with their battery, the Mugen simply doesn't have as much value for your dollar. I personally don't worry about value when buying gadgets. I worry about fun and the Mugen and Zerolemon have both been fun to use.

Yeah mate, you're definitely the one laughing, this battery isn't the reason why people only getting 1-2 days of use are getting 15-20 hours of screen on time.
There aren't other users saying they're getting exactly 3x the battery life with this battery
In fact, here are some quotes to show you the usage some people are getting:
Oh, and in regards to the case you say will fall off straight away:
Just because you're not getting what you hoped for from the battery doesn't mean it's not doing its job.
It's also entirely possible that you got a dud, you can contact zerolemon and see what they do about it.
Also, the STOCK battery that comes with the phone is also assembled in china.14Review Link :

Wow, what a beast! Finally, after years of begging, someone finally makes a non rectangular battery! I may have to buy one for that reason alone.

Wow, you are the most ignorant, dim-witted, impatient individual I have ever seen. It was stated MULTIPLE times that the battery wouldn't even be in stock till the 19th and yet you expect Zerolemon and Amazon to cater to you and you alone by shipping it to your door (days before it would even be available to the public) in 1 day because fast shipping was offered on a product that wouldn't even be in stock for a couple more days? You think you're some special person that has to receive everything first? Their PROMISE was to have it available for shipping on the 19th. And then you come up with some absurd assumptions that everyone you "talk" to at Amazon are foreign which just makes you look like an even bigger ignorant fool. You sound like some uneducated schmuck with only half a brain with the way EVERY one of your posts have been typed.
How about you step off your high horse and learn that the world doesn't revolve around you. If I owned a business and you were my customer; I would have told you a long time ago that you could take your business elsewhere because of how rude and ignorant you are. You act like businesses are just robots that are supposed to do as you say but in reality, they're formed from groups of human beings that can pick and choose who they sell to.
If I were Zerolemon, I would have just cancelled your order and refunded all your money and sent an email stating that you were no longer welcome to purchase from my company as that would be my right; you want to be singled out because you think you're special then you would get singled out.

Holding it seems great, if you put tension on the case like you are going to remove it, it is more flexible than id like. note however, i have no prior experience with TPU cases, or other cell cases..
if i even get exactly 2x the battery life, i would be more than happy. im loving the fact its not a 'hump' on the back. :good:7It looks to me like their only mistake so far is in answering people's queries about when it might be available. Had they simply refused to give dates, people would still be anxiously waiting.
It's always amazing to me how people feel like they are owed a product on a given date. If the date passes, they feel wronged and get angry. I could understand if the company had accepted their money already, but in this case nobody has paid anything at all. Yet still, people feel entitled and get angry at the company when their idle hopes aren't fulfilled. It seems like a lot of people need to pull up their big boy (girl) pants and learn that the rest of the world doesn't exist merely to cater to them.
