You know there are multiple extended battery choices for pretty much any popular phone out there. The problem, however, is that you may not want to buy batteries from third parties and would rather grab such product made by the same company which made the phone itself.

If you own the Galaxy S III and you also happen to live in the UK, you can now pre-order Sammy’s official extended battery which adds 900mAh to your battery life, bringing the total capacity to 3000mAh. Of course, this extra battery capacity makes for a thicker phone, hence you’ll also get a replacement back cover that houses the extended battery and protects against damage. Moreover, there’s a built-in NFC chip for full phone functionality.

The price, you ask? It’s set at 39.99 GBP which translates into roughly $65. You can pre-order your unit from MobileFun’s website.
