wow..looks like it almost doubles the thickness.

wow..not even close. It probably adds about 20% to the total thickness.

Well, ordered it today! we shall see!

I think the increased thickness would be beneficial for me with my fat hands I just can't justify the 18$ shipping to Canada

20% ? according to the pics it looks more...but if it truly indeed last 80% more than stock than its worth it. Right now..i take my phone off the charger at 630 am and by 1230-1pm i have the low battery warning.

It's actually an optical illusion, the one on the left looks smaller because it looks more white on top so it blends more with the background thus causing you to belive that it's smaller.

Does this help? BTW...the actual difference is about 3.5mm.

Excellent !
 

Wow! Thats not much of a difference at all! I definitely want to buy this but Ive already purchased Seidio's holster & with the increase in size, it would be to big for it. When will Seidio be releasing a new clip holster that is made for the increase in size from the battery door? Also, will there be some sort of combo or bundle package?

I'd like to vouch for this battery... I just got it at the beginning of the week. The original battery would last me a day with regular use (odd web surfing, a youtube video or two, a short call or two, push email, msn), this one will get me through a weekend. Big improvement!

yes...it helps alot. thank you
