Battery upgrade for note 10.1 2014

[kma581]

My battery is a 7000 wah battery, and one lasts about 2 1/2 hours when watching movies before I have to plug it in. I understand Samsung also made a 8220 wah battery because of complaints. My question is how much more time could I expect if I upgraded?

After about a year and a half my battery was running down in a few hours. I replaced the battery with one from amazon, that came with a tool to open the case, and a video on how to do it. I now get close to 8 hours, depending on what I am doing.

It was a fairly detailed and tedious operation, that my husband helped with the connections part. But I was very happy with the results, and still see the difference of the replaced battery.

if your battery life is that bad, I would think this would help

here is the one I got:

Thanks for the info. That is the one I was looking at. It doesn't look too hard to do.

nope, not too hard, if you are good with connections, and wiring stuff. Im better at software, but my husband is very mechanical with wiring and small connections. I was very pleased with the results.
