Found online an extended battery called Mugen Power Battery. Not sure whether that's good or not.

The anker battery is the same size as the Seidio. Seidio just came out with an Active case for the extended battery.

Mugen batteries are good quality. Used them in past smartphones with no problems.

Yes, that's the one. I have the Anker battery in my phone with the Seidio 4500 cover. Same exact size. The Anker is a little heavier.

Never tried using extended batteries so can't say about quality.

I just got my ZeroLemon 7500 mAh. Can fit in the Samsung charging pack. I'll update with the performance soon.

I have a SGH-I337M version of the s4. Will the anker 5200mah work okay with it?

Been lurking for a while, and after finding consistently good advice here, I figured I'd finally join and chime in (albeit a bit late) on this discussion. I've got the Anker 7800 mAh extended battery, and there are some big pros and big cons. After having it for about a month of consistent use, the good news is that, with max brightness and 2.5 hours of straight web browsing with my Facebook, e-mail, and twitter set to receive push ASAP, and after using the music player for about 40 minutes straight, and consistent texting, the battery percentage rests at about 80%. With average use and max brightness and data push, I can go for roughly three days before I hit less than 15% and need to charge. It's absolutely great to be able to use the smartphone as it's intended to be used without having to worry over it dying or constantly being tethered to a plug.

Bad news.

It's incredibly huge. I had expected an extended battery to be bigger, but this thing is a monster, and it's incredibly heavy. I've attached a picture, and with the S4 in the extended case, it's three times as thick as it is normally. The case that came with the battery isn't bad - it's plain black and glossy rubberized material. As for weight, it weighs the same as holding my S4 (normal), S3, and Lumia 920 at the same time.



Overall, considering I paid $40 for it, I don't hate it, and I tolerate the width and weight, but I'm wondering - anything that's approximately as effective but not quite so big?

Thanks in advance.

I also have the 7500 mAh battery from zerolemon and it has been working great for me. Get about 2 days off one charge. Like someone else said, it was about 40 bucks off Amazon.

Thanks SO much for your mention of the hyperion case. I had no idea cases existed for the extended battery and I apparently drop my phone more than I think. And without a proper case, all would come apart and a matter of time before I cracked the screen.
