Customer Ratings & Reviews

battery life last longer the average battery, but don't like that the phone is thicker and replacement cover does not seal like original.

Still had the original batter in my Samsung S5 phone. The replacement battery is twice as large, therefore the updated back as well. I can now go a couple of days before I have to recharge. Love the convenience. The only negative is it made the phone heavier so I primarily keep it on a rubber stand and use the speaker phone a lot more.

This is an ideal battery replacement for my Samsung S5. Not a generic battery that looses juice quickly. Keeps full charge for a full day use. Only issue is that it is bigger/bulkier/heavier than the original battery and they give you a replacement back in order for it to fit. Not ideal, but it does the job for those not ready to spend $1k on new phone, and only need a new battery.

My original battery was so bad it would turn off at 50% just off on, off on, offon. I couldn't make it stop. I would fully charge it, unplug it, not use it, and 10 minutes later it would be down to 60%. I considered getting a new phone but decided to get this battery. It works wonderfully. It holds a charge forever! I'm glad I did get it.

Was holding off getting a new phone and chose to get a battery instead. Please with my new battery

It does a good job. I was having issues with my old phone battery, I got this one, and problem was instantly solved. It was a bit bulky but it got the job done.

Lasts long on charge....but phone is much heavier and larger, due to bulky cover

My Galaxy S5 battery had reached the point where I had to charge it about once a day with "power saving mode" on. I was hoping that the ultrlast battery would be identical to the factory model, however, it was substantially thicker and heavier. Plus, the battery life still required a charge about once every 24 hrs (granted, I did not run the battery in power saving mode). Now, I just bring it along on extended trips when I anticipate not being able to easily charge, but stick to my original samsung battery mostly because of the reduced thickness and weight

I immediately returned this without even trying the battery when I realized it came with a new back cover, because the battery is too big for the phone. It sticks out and is bulky.

this was a great replacement battery, but did not know it was thicker than the origiinal

I received the battery much faster than expected. I really was happy because I use my phone for business. Best Buy delivered exactly what I ordered.

Needed this to hold a charge, comes with a new back which is bulky.

Wrong item was lsited as a replacement battery for the Samsung S5 - it was not in the least.
