2600mAh or 5200mAh battery for Samsung S4

linsv

I found that there are Anker 5200mAh extended batteries with different back cover for S4 on Amazon.co.uk for sale, any one used one? I was wondering which one to buy, £9.99 2600mAh or 17.99 5200mAh. They are both of great value for good reviews.:cool:
And there are also some good combos to get, it also looks good to get a try.

What is your choice?:)

I've got a couple of Anker batteries for my S2 but I only bought them once my original battery was on its last legs, is your original battery really so bad it needs a spare or replacement already?

I didn't go for the higher capacity one because I didn't want the back cover interfering with cases/accessories.

The charger I got with them I don't use - I'm not going to take it out every day, so I just use it to recharge the spare every now and again and swap them once every couple of months.

The original battery can not hold on 1 day for normal use, I would like to have a try to the Anker Batteries.

So you get Anker S2 batteryx2 + charger? Comparing with one single battery, for the price, that's a great bargain.
I found that Anker provides another option as batteryx2 + Charger + Screen protector, it looks a fairly great combo to get. And I never found this similar combo on market.
Although the 5200mAh is big in size, it can double the battery usage time.

The Anker battery's i have used on S1 S2 and S3 have all been as good as the original Samsung battery.

I have the S4 - and I have bought the two spare batteries and charger. That way I can charge both the phone and a spare battery at night and have a couple of batteries to get me through the next day. Personally, a single battery (stock Samsung) does not last the whole day. I often need to make long train journys and do not want to find myself without power for my phone. I bought the 2 spare Anker batteries plus charger for the Galaxy s2 and s3 - I also bought the extended battery for the S2 (Samsung brand) and did not find it particularly effective. I use at least 1.5 batteries between 7 A.M. and 7 P.M. and having 3 batteries at least means I could go until the early hours if necessary... plus I always carry my charger with me. In conclusion having the external charger and two spare batteries gives me much more flexibility.

Thanks jje. It looks like Anker batteries are the best choices.

It is more convienient to get one charger around.
PS: How lucky I am to find that the price of Anker batteries of S4 have been dropped, the 2x 2600mAh + Charger is only £18.99！

Anker are the best without a doubt. Especially when it comes to price.
