However, during the time that i did, i found it hard to ever switch back to my stock battery. This one doubled my battery life, and although it makes the phone a bit thick, i find that the benefit of extended battery life outweighed the downside to a bulkier phone. Pros : Double the battery, for real world all day usage! Great pricing Cons : Bulkier phone with this battery installed No custom case available to use for protection after installing the battery and the back cover. Wish they sold an accessory which would help protect my phone from drops after installing this battery and back cover. When the battery reaches 2%, it seems to idle there for a long long time before dying out. Appears to be some sort of calibration issue, one that i could never figure out and get to work correctly. Overall, i was extremely happy with this and highly recommend it to those who use the phone extensively and need a full days charge from it. Review: Lazarus the Phone - I'm a veteran of extended batteries and if you go cheap you get what you pay for. This one from Anker I thought I could say was the exception as they are a direct competitor of EZOPower in the alternative power market for cell phones and they make a good product. I'm obviously in error mainly because of the advertised mAh value of 5200. If you are familiar with your stock battery and its performance the first few weeks you'll know that if you download any battery widgets you are rated for roughly 22-23 hours of use by any measure. Actually using the phone degrades this a great deal however, I've tried several widgets and the phone battery gauge. Nothing points to this giving ANY additional power from the OEM 2600mAh battery during the first week of operation. I did notice after it was rated at 100% charged that the phone notated it not being "fully charged" for another hour and ten minutes, which I've never seen with any other battery however the discharge cycle is the exact same length as an OEM 2600mAh battery. That basically makes it an oversize OEM replacement with no discernible benefits other than adding the ability to use it as a bludgeon and I've got much cheaper rocks outside than a $600 phone. Overall it is an utter disappointment and no stretch of the imagination is going to stretch this battery's capacity. I have let it charge for 11 hours and still, even rated fully charged by any of the calculation apps, it is just...the same as the factory battery on a good day. The Seidio is rated for less but likely is at least what it claims to be. I'll consider it next after returning this. I give it 1 star. UPDATE: After interacting with Anker Customer Service and getting another battery to try I can say the performance is much better. I've used it a few days now, going on a week, and while the "Not Fully Charged" phenomenon still persists, the rate of idle discharge is far lower and it easily survives a shift and a half of use in low reception areas (which drains a phone far faster than if you have full signal strength or WiFi to use) and it still charges about as fast as the stock battery (which I do not have a reason for but can certainly appreciate). Certainly a turn around for the battery and I have nothing but good things to say about the Customer Service Representatives who assisted me. I can safely recommend this product to friends at this point. I'll give it 4 stars because it is really nice but I got a bad one to start so take that as it comes. Sometimes batteries are inconsistent. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00CN4T87C | | Brand | Anker | | Compatible Phone Models | Samsung Galaxy S4 | | Customer Reviews | 3.5 3.5 out of 5 stars (499) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00848061079081 | | Item Dimensions | 2.48 x 2.28 x 0.39 inches | | Item Weight | 4.16 ounces | | Model Number | AK-70SMGLXS4-E1W52NA | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required.

I took the battery out to look at it and it was swollen and scorching hot. I put it in a ceramic cup and let it sit out for awhile to see if it would cool down, but it remained very hot all day. The next afternoon it went down to being only warm and then finally cool. I ended up having this disposed and put the regular battery back in. I miss having the extra hours of charge, but since I sleep next to my phone I am kinda concerned that it could have actually exploded or caught fire next to me had I not noticed it. If you notice your battery is hot, and your phone has been powered off for awhile be sure to check to make sure it has not swelled up. There is always the possible chance I got a defective battery, but there is no way to know for sure. The regular battery that came with the phone has functioned properly since re-installing it, that said it doesn't last as long. The best thing about these batteries is that you can use your phone the whole day, so I hope it continues to work for you all. I am considering buying another one some day, but I might have to do some research first next time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/6399232-anker-5200mah-extended-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-siv-s](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/6399232-anker-5200mah-extended-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-siv-s) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
