Remember that 4100mah battery?

We were all excited to get it... Now... The battery sucks. After 6 hours I'm down to 50 percent with little use. The stock battery is now a better battery. This 4100 def lost its charge.

I'm so surprised. The $1.57 antenna booster sticker that I bought on Amazon
still provides me with excellent reception.

Hahaha!! I paid $4 and it worked for a month or two but suddenly sucks. Oh well.

Ouch, that' sucks. Not to be mean, but it's what I expected though. Many times these types of third party batteries use cheaper materials that just don't hold up over time. That's why it's typically best to stick to OEM batteries. You pay a little more up front, but they last longer actually making them more cost effective. Not to mention if you have any trouble with them or they damage your phone, you have full recourse with the OEM.

Ya... It was nice for about a month. Time to go down to the 3500mah

On the topic of OEM batteries where can I get an extra one? Verizon doesn't sell them which I find odd and the OEM ones found on amazon clearly say that they won't work with the Verizon version.

Thanks ahead of time

From Samsung (see links below). You may be able to get 50% off if you sign up for a Samsung account. I'd highly recommend the spare battery charger.
