Hi all,

Looking at maybe getting an extended battery for my S4, but I want to keep it as slim as possible, while also being worthwhile having though, no point something with a useless battery gain

I really like the design of this one where the phone sort of 'slots' in for two reasons:

1. I think you can use the original battery as well as the extended?
2. I like the way it doesn't look like it will add too much thickness

Only thing is that has useless reviews

Does anyone have one they would recommend?

Thanks! :)
 
though of just buying a spare battery or 2 to swap out whenever you need + maybe a charging dock that can charge the battery while its outside of the phone?
 
Didn't really like that idea, as I have my phone in a case, so would have to take the case off every time

Also I'm always near a PC usually to just plug the phone in for a battery boost which is what I do now, but I'd prefer if I could just flick a switch on an 'in-case' style extended battery
 
the "slot in" extenable batteries are more than likely designed for the phone without and additional cases/physically bigger batteries so if you go down that route, you would need to remove your case to use it anyways
 
I wouldn't have minded taking my case off, providing the new extended battery case provides some protection

I really like these two that I got recommended on another forum. They look very very nice! And are slim too, only add ~1cm to the phone. But I've had a think and I'll probably give it a miss as I've thought I'm always near a place to charge my phone, so can just save the money and stick with my nice slim phone :D

In that case I'd recommend the ZeroLemon 3000mAH battery to give you more juice in the same casing. My dad has one in his S4 and uses the original back cover, it is a big tighter to fit but it fits.

So my phone would be more than twice as thick? :confused:
