[G3 Accessories] zkyevolved:
Hello everyone! Here are my first impressions. (I'm going to reserve the next post as well to later insert my final review.)

Before I begin, please take a look at this thread for more information: http://mugen.co/mugen-power-6200mah-extended-battery-for-lg-g3-with-battery-door.html

FIRST IMPRESSIONS​

Well, I got this battery on Friday the 28th of November. When I first opened it I thought holy cow, this is going to make my device a monster! And well, it kind of does. The battery is at least double the thickness of the original and as you know it requires a new back plate.

The good news is that the backplate incorporates all functionality of the original OEM one: NFC and wireless charging. I don't use wireless charging so I can't confirm 100% that it works. But we'll imagine it does! :)

Here are some images I took from my tablet.

Sorry for the bad quality. If anyone really needs HD pictures I'll be more than happy to whip out the camera for it.

Yes, it makes it fatter. Yes, it also makes it heavier. The weight is never a problem for me. But the size could be a problem for some people. The new back has a kickstand which hides the grill for the speaker, which is fine. I'll test the volume output with and without the backing to see if there is a big difference. It does make the device easier to type on. As you know today phones are getting thinner and thinner and no doubt Samsung, LG, and Sony are on top for thin Android devices. But thinner doesn't really mean better. It's harder to dissipate heat and it has less room to breathe. OK. So I'd prefer thicker devices and just slap a fatter battery in it. The LG g3 already has good battery life for my usage.

My usage is the following :

Emails

Whatsapp, Line, Google hangouts

Web browsing

Taking pictures

Browsing the Play Store.

Phone calls

BitTorrent Sync always running and syncing to my server and PCs.

I don't play games on my phone as I use my tablet for that.

I took it off the charger at 8:30 AM this morning, and it's now around 11:20 PM. It has been a really relaxing day for me. I've used some Google Music while cleaning around and such. I've taken a few pictures and a bunch of messages. Let me share some of my screen shots. Please take into account this is still the first charge, and it could (and should) change.

The feeling to the touch us OK. It's plastic fantastic. The feeling reminds me of my old samsung galaxy phones (s3 and note 2). It's quite smooth. I prefer the touch of the original back as it feels "more premium" but hey, I'm not going to complain. I believe the added battery life you're getting far outweighs the plasticy feeling.

I'm going to do testing with the camera with this replacement backing and without the backing to see if it has any effect on the camera / flash. Please look to the full review to see what it looks like. I'll post comparative pictures.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or if you'd like me to test anything in particular. I'm not going to charge the battery again until it falls below 10%. So at this rate it'll take a while! haha.

UPDATE AFTER 24 HOURS:​

Wow, this thing is going to be near impossible to kill on a weekend. It's estimating with my usage a total of 7 days (6 more day) per charge.

My usage is the following:

I used a lot of media services (to sleep I use White Noise for an hour) and then Google Music as well. You also have my OST. Monster of a battery!

UPDATE AFTER 48 HOURS:​

Wow, this thing is going strong. This is after 48 hours of usage. I'm not a heavy user, but I did take a lot of pictures over the weekend. Played a lot of music. And some light browsing and a few phone calls (over the internet and real calls).

Here are the screen shots after 48 hours.

The next post I'll do is when it's dying and then post those statistics. Now that I'm back to a normal work day, I'll be using it more. I had a lot of family functions this weekend. See you in another day or so! :) After that I'll move on to my final review.
