I just don't believe the high capacities quoted by some of the third-party suppliers. I go for the batteries that quote the same capacity (2600mAh) as the original Samsung battery. Because this indicates to me that the supplier is at least not exaggerating.
I do not have equipment to measure the true capacity of the third-party batteries. Just use them and see whether they last about the same as the original. In fact, the third-party battery, being newer, should last longer than the older original Samsung battery. Right now I switch between the Pisen, Nohon and Deji batteries. Stopped using the original Samsung battery (the oldest battery) because the capacity has deteriorated such that it depletes faster than the other third-party batteries.
I have also used Anker and Andida. Surprisingly the Anker, despite its apparently popularity in the US, seems to me to have less capacity than the other third-party batteries. I gave the Anker to a friend who is still using it. The Andida was my first third-party battery for the S4 and I find the worst. The phone will shut down when I activate the Camera app. I suspect the Andida battery cannot cope with trying to charge up the phone LED flash causing the phone to shut down. No longer using this battery.
Lastly, in case NFC is a requirement. I think only the Anker and Nohon batteries comes with NFC capability. But since I do not use NFC, this is not a criteria for me.
Yo Bro. Care to share where you buy those batteries? Wanna get a new one as I'll be using my brother's old S4 temporarily and I reckon the battery should have deteriorated quite badly already.
