Both those images are the N97's one. The only image we have so far (AFAIK) for the N900 version is the "draft photo" on the Mugen site, which shows absolutely nothing useful.

True... But it looking at the shape, it shouldn't be too far off.... (Doesn't explain why they don't have an actual picture though)

Just need to wait :) - not understanding the people complaining about it looking ugly as the draft is a draft not a product though!

Re: Mugen hugh capacity batteries
 

Assuming the overall thickness of the device with extended Mugen battery is 25mm, that's 5.5mm thicker than it currently is (19.5mm at camera "hump") which suggests the draft photo is more or less accurate, at least in terms of size (too early to say if the kick-stand will be added in the final product).

My guess is Mugen are going after the uber hardcore user that doesn't mind carrying or being seen with an unattractive half-ton brick, and maybe that's enough to justify the development costs but I'd have thought a replacement battery with a more modest capacity increase that only extended the back to make it flush with the camera would have been a sure-fire winner.

jeez i dont need that bulky fellow on my phone, i just carry a dc-11 charger, that gives me time to look for an outlet and charge via wall charger.

Thanks for feeling the need to bump a 3 month old thread to say so.

Re: Mugen hugh capacity batteries
 

After 2 months, I am still happy with my (182% comparing to normal) Mugen 2400 mAh battery.

Just yesterday used GPS tracking and web access (Mappero) for constant 6 hours and there were no possibility to charge from wall outlets during that time. With normal factory battery this would not have been possible.

This thread has typo in the subject line?

Also there is the thread with more info and usage graphs.:

Hugh! Is if I remember it right, widely known as the primal scream of a depressed castrated monkey. It has little or nothing to do with oversized Nokia batteries.

BTW, is there a backpack included when you buy that battery?

Re: Mugen hugh capacity batteries
 

i been waiting for some sort of replacement battery however mugen seems to be the only thing out there.... and atleast zimon is happy so to me this thredad is worth bumping...... is there anymore happy mugen users despite its size and weigh

in reality the stock battery is usless i have a powerful phone and to get mileage i have to trn off all functionality to have a little battery life remaining... well that defeats the whole purpose of having a full package communication phone... it would be better to buy a nokia 3210.
