Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Spare Battery Charger with OEM Replacement Battery

Very nice little battery charger. The one I received included a Samsung/OEM battery w/ embedded NFC (near field communication (one can see the outline of the antenna under the battery's label on one side)). Also, "NFC" is printed on the battery label. The labels on the battery shipped w/ this charger are identical to those of my phone's original battery.It definitely works well w/ a Samsung fast charger. After years of using a smart phone w/ a non-removable battery, it's a treat to (a) be able to swap out a battery when needed again and (b) have a drained battery charge to capacity so quickly.I sometimes have to be on a conference call for hours at a time. In the past, I've had to get creative to keep my phone charged during long days and lengthy calls (external charger/battery pack; extension cord to plug in A/C to D/C charger...and so on). Now I can go back to carrying spare, charged batteries - just as I did back in my flip/pre-smart phone days.PROs:This charger is very portable - has a small foot print. It's just large enough to accommodate the Note 4 battery.Build quality feels sturdy/well built. The charger has some heft (w/out the battery). It isn't flimsy / doesn't feel fragile. The door movement is smooth - opens and closes smoothly w/ no slop. Battery fits into the charger perfectly and w/ ease. It, too, is a very good fit - there's no play in the battery when it's seated in the charger.The micro-USB plug of the Samsung charging cable (not included) seats into the micro-USB connector on the charger properly as well.The charger has an LED which indicates battery's charge state (Green = fully charged, Amber = charging...). The LED isn't blindingly bright - it's a modest size - just large & bright enough to make the battery's charge state clear w/out having to shield your eyes or reach for something to cover it up at night.The battery that ships w/ the charger comes in a little case of its own. So, if you want to carry a spare on you, you can do so safely - w/out risk of damaging the battery's contacts. I carry a spare batt' in the case in one of my tactical pants pockets.CONs:Just one - I'd like to be able to connect the charger (w/ a charged battery "loaded") to my phone for those times when I'm not in a position to terminate a call in order to swap the phone battery. I've searched around for a Samsung micro-usb plug to micro-usb plug cable to connect the charger directly to my phone. I've found one for "sharing power". (a) It's pricy @ $19.95. (b) I'm not sure it's compatible. Will need to contact Samsung to inquire.All in all, this is a great little accessory for a power-hungry smartphone like the Note 4. I highly recommend it.

This is a nice little set. I needed a new battery for my Note 4, and decided to get this charger and battery set instead of just a spare battery. It's very convenient to be able to charge the spare without plugging in my phone.As other reviewers have pointed out, this charger doesn't plug into a wall outlet, it has a microUSB port. I was a little disappointed by this also, until I realized that this is actually kind of a good thing for a travel charger. Not only can you charge the spare battery without plugging in the phone, you can charge it wherever you have a microUSB charger (in the car, with an external battery pack, etc..), not just with a wall outlet. The set also comes with a little plastic case for the spare battery, which is also very nice for travel.The charger is not much larger than the battery itself, and very lightweight. It has an LED that is orange when charging, and turns green when the battery is charged. It does NOT support the adaptive fast charge technology, it's a regular 2.0 amp charger.The battery is the same 3220 mah, NFC capable battery that comes with the Note 4. My old battery only lasted for about 12 hours, the new one lasts well over 24 hours.

I wanted to purchase a spare battery for my Note 4 when I purchased it earlier in the year as I play professional baseball I travel on a bus for several hours each day and fight for outlets in the clubhouse when we arrive at the stadium.I previously owned a powerbank portable charger for my HTC one m7 before buying my Note 4 but was not a fan of charging and using the phone since it made it extremely hot and more or less didn't charge the phone but prolonged the batter.This battery made my phone one of my favorite purchases for my career and daily activity. I no longer worry about my battery charge when on the road or in the clubhouse since I know I can pop this battery in in under a 30 seconds and have a 100% charge. It works exactly like it is intended to be used and have never had an issue with the battery. No calibration was needed from my phone and it accepted it right away as it is a Samsung product. It fits perfectly in the phone with no sliding and the charging case worked perfectly with my charging cable (also a Samsung cable that came with Note 4).I see this product as a necessity with all note 4 owners and is the first thing I talk about when someone mentions what is the best part of the Note 4, the already great battery life but the ability to swap batteries in no time and have a full charge.
