Default Is anker still the best?
Hi all

I want to replace my battery for one that lasts longer. I have read many reviews about the anker battery. They state that it can reduce battery life by around 4 hours. Just wondered if there are any alternatives that some of you guys may have tried?

Cheers

I bought one a few weeks ago, and I'm very happy with it. Not only does it last a bit longer, but the physical fit seems to be much better, so I don't need the business card wedge to stop the phone crashing any more.

Hey all, I know this is an old thread but I recently purchased a ravpower 10kmah powerbank for 30 on sale here. It had great reviews from amazon.

I got a Hyperion one that I got on amazon. Been working great for me and life has extended longer than the one that came with my phone.

Bank? Well I got a external battery charger by ravpower. I've used that 2-3 times since receiving. It has came in handy during my trips. My extended battery is everyday since it's an actually battery attached to my phone. I actually have a galaxy s3 now though.
