Please note I achieved my 1 day and 6 hours using the STOCK BATTERY.

I've done that also, with moderate to low usage though. No heavy gaming, internet browsing or texting... just light use. This extended battery I can go hard and still get 44hrs lol.

Im sorry, I did see that but I thought I read that others were getting great time on a stock battery. I had not had my coffee yet!!

I would HIGHLY recommend getting the Hyperion Extended Battery (4200mAh). I just received mine yesterday and I freakn love this thing. Non-stop texting all day, played some Angry Birds, went on Twitter multiple times, Instagram as well, browsed the web a bit and have Google Now on and all its features.

Most of us bought the s3 for its slick form factor. Adding a bulky battery ruins it.

If you buy a phone for its "slick form factor" then that's just dumb IMO. I bought this bc it is basically a computer that can fit in my pocket.

I can't believe this but (using stock battery) I am currently at 1 day 15 hours and I still have 30%... I am going to post a screen shot when it gets really low like 5% and see how long it's gonna last! Note: My longest life I've had was 1 day 6 hours. I beat that. Here we go!

Diligent, can you kindly explain to us what you've done to get such good battery life??

Well I am stock unrooted. I turned off Google Now after I got 4.1 JB. I have brightness full, weather updated every 3 hours. Live windmill wallpaper set every 3 hours. FB sync, Gmail, Outlook sync on... I even have the news ticker on my lock screen on to update once a day. I am trying to think of all the other settings I have. I used to have voice commands on but realized they were draining my battery. I turned the Sprint optimizer off but it ALWAYS comes back on. Wifi always on unless I am out for the night I turn it off. GPS always on. data on. I used to have all the motions on but every one doesnt work well. so the ones I have on are Direct Call, Double Tap to Top, and palm swipe for screen capture. CDMA is on cause I don't have LTE in my area yet. NFC off unless I wanna use it. Power saving mode OFF. Location Services all of besides use GPS satellites. OK I think I covered EVERYTHING. If you think I missed a setting please let me know. Note I have push for my outlook and get 100's of emails a day and this thing is still beastin. I honestly can't believe. So far I used FB a dozen times, checked email, gmail outlook etc, text messaging, phone call's.. I honestly can't believe it.

You didn't do a reset/reformat by any chance?!?!
