Anker is a quality brand, no need to worry.

Have had Anker batteries for my Note 1, Note 3 and Note 4. Excellent every time, order in confidence.

​For those getting issues like this after factory resets, or after updates, get a battery calibration app (any with a high rating will do, they're mostly free) and follow the instructions. Should fix the turning off before 0% thing

Ordered, heat.

I've been looking for one all night...I even contacted them at Samsung who are USELESS BTW. And they give me 3 links (after 2months of begging them in email) of which 1 did not even work and the other 2 had none in stock. I'm a little weary of this battery as it's not Samsung. .it's been in my basket since a few days ago lol. Probably shoot up in price since its been posted!

Good deal, heat added. Not sure if quick charge is supported though?

I have one of these batteries, would trust them above a possible imitation battery in Samsung packaging. I bought a 'samsung' battery that ballooned in size after a couple of months.

Thanks guys, just went ahead and ordered for 8 quid. ..had the phone since release date and now having to charge basically every day. Past year it's been switching off randomly every few days and freezer all the time. Hopefully battery will sort out.

.[/quote]Did quick charge work?[/quote]
Yes it does.

Great price. Heated and Ordered. Thanks Op.

I've just recently bought one ofor these (for the higher price - grrr) as my Note 4 would continually reboot unless it was plugged in to either mains or a portable battery pack.

Now the phone works fine, quick charge is fast, seems faster than the original Samsung battery that came with the phone but that might be because it's a newer battery?

Two questions, should I get another as a backup and will Amazon refund the £6 difference?

I bought this a few weeks back and it caused issues with the note 4... Contacted anker an they confirmed via serial number I had an old version of this... Best to contact them and confirm you get the latest version.

Their customer service is top notch.

I do need a new battery but £12 naaa

cheers op , i've been needing to get a new battery for my note 4. this is worth a pint at £8. heat added

Thanks op, my phone was turning off at 40% with a Samsung replacement battery. But if we was unable to replace the battery it would have cost us a lot more with having to buy a new phone. So it puts me off the new phones with non removable ones :disappointed:.

No way, I purchased this like 4 days ago

​I've also used one in my s3 in the past. Was much better than the Samsung battery

I take these do not catch fire? :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks op! Ordered! After the last couple of updates, my note 4 started rebooting itself and started getting really hot with the battery draining pretty quick without me doing anything on the phone! The wifi symbol on the pulldown notification section was flashing on and off also. So did a factory reset and seemed to have resolved the issues. Then after the last update, the phone would switch off with around 30% left depending what app I am using...

​Interbreasting

Might work for a couple of people but in general, it's time to worry! Fingers crossed it's not the EMMC fail!

I'm onto my second Note 4 after my first became unusable with the restarts. This is what you want to read There's quite a few different "fixes", some work, most don't. Installing the wakelock app that's mentioned worked for me but it eats through my battery. I've kept the phone in the hope that people have misdiagnosed the issue and that there's an actual solution.

As for this, cheers OP, I was just about to post it after reading my notification from the Camels that it's come down in price. I've bought one but do I go for a second? (I've already got one Anker and another Samsung...)

I bought a genuine one of these and they're great Samsung external battery charger I know there's load of knock off's on fleabay too...

I bought a supposed 'official samsung battery' on ebay for about £6 a few months back. Worked ok at first and then the sticky label started peeling off and then it died altogether recently. Definately fake. Would recommend something 100% like this. More fool me for even thinking it would be decent for £6 !

Heat.

My s6 edge battery level keeps dropping and i need to replace it. Whats the best brand internal battery i can get? Do anker do them?

great deal

Thank you for this deal!!! I've been having a lot of problems with my battery and some had bad reviews on Amazon.

Is it possible to get it delivered for Tuesday if ordered today?? Going away on Wednesday. :disappointed: Is the collect service quicker than delivery?

Thanks again!

I ordered it this morning using prime, but the estimated delivery is only on Wednesday.

​Thanks for the reply - bank holidays!!:disappointed::confused:

I've bought a portable charger to take with me but will probably be connected the whole time when I take photos!!

Used Anker products in the past and never been disappointed. Good price for a Quality replacement battery. Ordered and heat added.

I have this battery, and have done for a while, but had to revert back to my stock battery recently until I decide how best to proceed. It's as good as the Samsung battery, but however the battery is constructed, the Note seems to struggle to calculate the remaining charge in the battery. Certainly with high drain apps like the camera, it will often turn off around the 20% mark and when you come to charge it, will display its actual level of charge as 1%.

It is also noticeably slower to charge than the original battery. I'd put a rough estimate at double the time to charge to full.

Worth noting that this battery is bigger than the stock Samsung battery and doesn't sit flush to the case, so anyone with a tight fitting case around the Note might find that it doesn't fit properly or there is a bulge in it.

I've had none of these issues. I suggest you contact Anker.

I have this problem but it's running on the original battery. The problem seems to be with the phones as opposed to the battery.

As the batteries deprecate they go like that, but I've always had that problem with the Anker regardless of its age.

I've got this and highly recommend
I get about 4+ hours screen on time regularly
Heat added

I am a very heavy user of my phone as I use it for work and pleasure and some of the work I do involves using bespoke APKs, so I tend to encounter problems with phones that others perhaps don't. Good or bad, I think it's important to note anecdotal evidence of use and I appreciate the same from other users.

Only heat this guarantees is when your phone spontaneously combusts. :smile:

Cheers OP. Ordered.
Anker is top quality.

Good find have 1 in my note 3 if they had stocked the note 3 would have got another

Thanks op bought

Thanks, grabbed one. Now to find another Note 4 as mine is acting up.

Did you look at that link I posted earlier? There's a few fixes that worked for people if you're having the freeze, reboot issues

Well if the phone turns off when you have 20% battery remaining and takes twice the amount of time to charge it, you obviously have a faulty battery "heavy user" or not.

I refer you to my earlier comment - post #29

BOOM Heat

Not necessarily. There are plenty of N4 users who had issues with their phone shutting down at certain battery percentages and only a few were down to faulty batteries. Though in the above situation, it sounds like he's got a duff unit as my Anker's have never worked any differently to the stock ones.

Great deal, would this be okay to keep as a back up?
I bought one off ebay which had the original samsung package and it is doing okay for now.

Yes, I understand this. I've seen youtube videos on how to change the battery and have some kits that I've repaired macbook screen with and certain phone. The s6 edge battery is annoying me as thats my main phone and refuses to run for more than 4hrs reliably

Bought one. Thanks for posting

Is it a bad sign if the phone turns off with 30% battery remaining? (I've had mine, official battery, about two years - assumed it was time for a new one).

The comment about EMMC failure got me a bit worried but I'm not sure what it relates to, exactly..

My Note 4 used to go right down to 1% but has conked around 30% a few times lately.

This thread may help http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?topicid=195427 (they talk about checking for a "bulging battery" which I don't seem to have but dunno if this is common with Samsungs, never heard of this occurring before).

Uhoh, the meter went to 666° when I clicked Hot.... :confused::sunglasses::man:

You are satan

Repent or hotkdeals will be the same as always

I would have thought the last thing a Note 4 battery needed was a load of heat!!

I've been using one of these since September - even used it on holiday where it was 40c temperatures - not a problem. NFC and quick charge work with it too.

If you've been charging the phone once daily, maybe multiple times a day or been regularly using quick-charge then your battery capacity has probably diminished a fair bit over 2 years.. Although it shouldn't be causing the issues you've described.
Have you tried "re-calibrating" your battery? I've put re-calibrating in quotes as modern phones and batteries shouldn't ever need calibrating, But hey, it could work right?
Modern android phones also delete this so-called "calibration" data after the phone reaches 100%. The battery itself doesn't store any of this data and isn't physically effected by the procedure. (Except loosing some capacity if drained right down to 0% the charged to 100% multiple times during "calibration")

Most likely your battery has suffered some damage, ether from just general wear / tear, a drop or two or potentially some manufacturing defects which has reduced the life of your battery. Officially Lithium ion batteries have a fairly short lifetime despite a good percentage still being usable years after this lifetime expires.
Typically 2-3 years or 300-500 charge cycles including the time it's been sitting in a warehouse before being placed into a phone and before it was sold

I highly doubt you're suffering from EMMC failure as that would leave you with a brick..

i need this but for note 3

damn it

To be honest, I'm not really a heavy mobile user - it's when I'm out visiting my sister my phone gets a lot of use (young niece playing games - though that's only been recently and Santa got her an Android tablet).

Most days my phone is on my desk, attached to a (Blackberry) MicroUSB cable to my desktop PC. Not sure if that's a bad thing.

I've got a Blackberry Playbook charger (hey, I like the Blackberry accessories as they're well-made and cheap!), that charges around 2A but that's only if I'm in a hurry.

I've read about re-calibrating on the Android Forums ages ago, will have a look around, see if that helps.

aghhhh been needing a new battery for a while ... seller doesn't delivery to Northern Ireland :-( :-(

your lucky every day. my battery in my note 4 lasts about 8 to 10 hours if I'm lucky.

Your comment would have been (slightly) funny if it was the Note 4 that was in the news for catching fire and not the Note 7...

I had pretty much the same issue, after about 2 years my original battery would switch off around 20%, I think it was losing charge quicker also.

At the moment I'm using an alleged 'Samsung' replacement for the past few months but not 100% convinced by the life, if I use it fairly heavily (not extreme usage) it doesn't last the day. Might pick up one of these for comparison, if nothing else it means I'll have a spare to take on trips etc.

In theory keeping your phone plugged in constantly shouldn't really have any negative effect on the battery.. Although it may have taken a greater toll on the battery over 2 years than someone performing regular charge cycles.

Still a new battery would probably solve your problem and at this price it's hard to say no. At the very least you'll have a spare battery to carry with you if you ever need it! (Traveling, intense gaming sessions, powercuts, etc.)

I ordered one back in October, all was fine until recently when it stopped working and put the phone into a boot loop. Contacted Anker through Amazon and they said it had been out of stock a while and they no longer sell this battery it is discontinued and said they could only give me a refund. So got my £13.99 back and now a couple of days later they are selling the very battery they said they didn't sell and was discontinued!

Just ordered and will hope this one doesn't die after a couple of months at least it's cost me £6 less!

any for note 3?

same and Amazon haven't got any anker ones brand new...

Thanks for replying. I had a Note 2 previously and as far as I know (used similarly) the battery hadn't degraded too much. Hopefully this new Anker battery will sort me out :smiley:

Theres a good seller on Ebay selling genuine batteries

Had it verified by samsung and also ripped the outer foil off to give them the serial number.

Paid about 10 pound with delivery got quite lucky

I guess you could say that this deal has... exploded.

If only my screen wasn't smashed...

Oh by the random switching off I'm talking about at 20 % sometimes even 70% and then switch it back on n battery goes down by 30%.
The battery lasts 5hours max...a full charge without use lasts 10 hours for me which is pointless unless I'm working and busy during any break :P

it is supported like. I previously bought one months ago and still charges very fast

The Anker Note 3 batteries were really good, I had 2 and an external charger for mine, but I've sold the phone now (really should get round to sticking the batteries and accessories on ebay!)

It indicates you are joking. I commented about "jokes"

£8 for a pint? where do you drink?

mine was doing the same - died at 30% and notification light just kept pulsing on a 14month old genuine battery replaced my original one after 13 months - bought ine of these anker bwtteris vefor christmas and havent had it turn of of once battery lasts ages and runs down to 1%

Used this brand before, cheers OP!

But I thought they were Ankers.

Nah, only kidding. Ordered + heat!

Thanks OP, excellent find, like everyone else my Note 4 was doing the same and needed a new battery - I've ordered 2 :smiley: !

I ordered it on Monday through prime, still have not received it. estimated delivery is only tomorrow. anybody else got it?

No, took 2 days to despatch!

Got mine today, ordered it on Monday (Prime) - Amazon Logistics is never usually late with Prime. Hermes is usually the culprit!

I feel your pain

Got my one today, will drain down the battery and then put it on a full charge :smiley:

pay up before it catches fire

Will it fit note 3??

no

I've had my Note 4 switching off at various percentages before the battery gauge is empty ranging from 5% up to as high as 35% although I don't think it's a battery issue as a replacement geniune Samsung does the same and it's entirely inconsistent. It was happening for a while off and on but it's been behaving itself for a while, I have tried battery calibration procedures but it didn't make any difference. My first Note 1 developed a battery fault around 14 months but it was more clearcut, it shut down at 40% every time and there was a noticeable swelling on the battery.

For those wanting a genuine Samsung battery I found it difficult as the Samsung store didn't seem to have them and there were so many for sale claiming to be genuine that clearly weren't. Eventually I found Samsung released a package with a battery with an external charger (allowing the battery to be charged on its own), there didn't seem to be any fake ones of this at the time so it ensured a genuine battery. Although someone made the good point earlier that many of these batteries are likely years old now.

I'm a bit concerned by the high amount of reviewers that had issues with the battery that have bought it recently although I guess at £8 it's still worth a go given it does now support NFC and QC (if I'm reading comments here correctly?) and Anker warranty seems good.

One of the layers inside the battery is failing. I had this eventually on my original note 4 and replacement one from handtec, (which they just refunded the money on)

I can't see that it's a battery fault, it's been weeks since it last did it and in the meantime it's had no issues switching off at low percentages.

New battery won't hold charge and charging for an hour its gone from 10% to 11%
gone back to old battery...
not impressed with the anker battery

Contact Anker. I've never had problems with my note 4 battery from them but their CS is great

Anker's died on me and no-one's answering the phone. What's the best way of getting hold of these guys?

Around the neck.

I've also started having the same problem as before, where it keeps on restarting when the battery gets low. Was hoping to get at least a year out of it!!
