Smart phones like the HTC Desire HD<\/a> and the Samsung Galaxy S<\/a> are great, but the battery life on them can be a bit disappointing. Keeping a car or USB charger with you is one way to keep your phone going for longer, but only if you’re near a power source. What do you do if you’re out and about all day? The simple answer is to invest in an extended battery.<\/p>\n

Not all extended batteries are the same though. Some will fit into your phone without adding any extra bulk, where as others are physically larger and come with a replacement back cover for your phone. In the last couple of weeks, three of the biggest names in batteries have released a Galaxy S Extended Battery<\/a>, a HTC Desire HD Extended battery<\/a> and a Google Nexus S Extended Battery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Galaxy S Extended Battery<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Galaxy S Extended Battery is larger than the standard one that comes with the phone. This means that in order for it to fit you’ll need to fit an alternative back cover to your phone. Although this does increase the size of your Galaxy S, it’s not by much and the cover incorporates a handy kick stand that’s ideal for watching films or videos with.<\/p>\n

\"Momax<\/a>

In terms of battery life, the Momax EX Power for the Galaxy S offers 2700mAh compared to just 1500mAh on the standard battery. This means you’ll get almost twice as much life from your phone before you’ll need to recharge it.<\/p>\n

HTC Desire HD Extended Battery<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The extended battery for the Desire HD may not be packing as many mAh’s as the one for the Galaxy S, but it still gives a significant boost over the standard battery and most importantly, it does it without increasing the size of the phone.<\/p>\n

\"Mugen<\/a>

The Mugen Extended battery is no bigger than the standard one that comes in the box, allowing you to use the original back cover.<\/p>\n

Google Nexus S Extended Battery<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Again, the extended battery doesn’t have a capacity much higher than the original, but it’s still enough to get even the heaviest of users through the day. Like the Mugen battery, the Seidio Extended battery for the Nexus S doesn’t take up any extra space and can be used with your existing back cover.<\/p>\n
