Excellent on the go app

eBay Inc Official Android App

eBay Inc Official Android App

I've been using this product for a little over a week. It's awesome. I've been getting over 2 days without recharging and with regular-to-heavy use.

In the past, I used Juice Defender to save battery life. When I first installed the battery, i turned it off to test the batter on it's own. I turned it back on after my last charge (in balanced mode) and it's currently showing that I've been unplugged for 38 hours and have 76% battery left. What a formidable combo. I'm guessing I'll get 3-4 days on a charge no problem.

As for the size, it does make the phone a lot bigger (duh). Thankfully, I was using an otterbox commuter case before I bought this, which is just about the same size. The new case is maybe 1-2mm thicker but it's maybe 1-2mm less wide. I personally like the thickness and flat sides of the new case, as it's easier to hold the phone without accidentally touching the screen.

The only concerns I have about this product are:

The weight: As you can imagine, this mega beast of a battery increases the overall weight of the phone. If I had to guess, I'd say it doubles the weight. Not a huge deal, but it will look odd if you carry this in your shirt pocket.

The Case. The case it came with fits snug, I'm just concerned about the longevity of the material and wondering if it would really protect my phone if I dropped it, especially given the added weight.

Overall, 5 stars.

Haven't had an oppportunity to test the NFC. Never did with the OEM battery either (thanks Verizon for blocking/disabling google wallet).

  3. This program works amazingly on my Viewsonic Gtab stock rom. It's very quick and i encountered no errors. It works in landscape also, which is a big plus on my 10.1 tablet and is very easy to navigate.

  5. The most recent updated version for this app has made it much better than the original version that I downloaded. I now have easy access to all the capabilities (all the ones I use, anyway) of the web version. It is nicely designed and well organized to show you your watched items, betting on items and selling items.

    The quick and easy access plus the fact that it will send you notifications on auctions make this an outstanding addition to my app library. If you use Ebay all I highly recommend this app for on the go access.
