Well the official dock is often sold with interchangeable inserts one for the normal battery and one for the (im assuming official, when i comes out) extended battery

It has. Check the HTC Accessories site...
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=168379

i will get the original cradle because of the great stylefactor. also the 3,5mm-jack is an argument for that cradle for those who need it.
the shop where i can order it wants 32€, way too much in my opinion, i will have to wait for cheaper times

it does seem too much in my opinion
but it also looks so sexyyyy lol

Yup, quite sexy. Unfortunately it's also wasting a lot of space on the desk - I doubt I'll buy it.

which shop?

german distributor shop where i can order it (i have a little job in the business...)

I have a third party desktopcharger, made by Veripart.
costs 39euro and it has a slot for extra battery to charge.
it looks good and works great. worth every euro it costs

i'd pay up to 30€ for it.. too bad it costs more.

@ diamondMflexx
pictures pictures please

Here's a review (in Dutch) of the Veripart Cradle with extra battery slot, including pictures.

anybody know of a place where i can get an extra battery and cradle together for a discounted price..?

Sweet deal. I'd rather buy that htc for $25 than the sedio for $60.

That's what I plan on doing as well. Waiting for the charging dock....

Got my spare yesterday, along with this dock from Hong Kong. The dock isn't the most glamorous but it works, and came with a 1500mAh AC adapter. Having a spare battery let me really see how long this thing could go... had it off the charger at 9AM, about two hours of internet browsing, one ~20 minute phone call with mixed reception (E/3G, sometimes 0 bars), and a little better than 6 hours of music playback. At 9PM I swapped the battery, it still had 13% remaining... My G1 would have crapped out a long time before that.

i'm assuming these are the standard batteries, not extended life versions?

Yes, the same as what is shipped with the phone, though for only $25, it sure beats the 1600mAh that Sedio offers at $55 +shipping...

I don't know why you guys don't buy this one:
http://4u-kidi.com/info.php?itno=5571
It cheap and works like the original one. Before nexus one I used similar for my G1. And worked beautifully. And free shipping!
Just a thought.
by the way I bought also this DOCK. It's free shipping also, and cheapest on the market.

This dock is linked on the previous page for a couple of bucks less.... very funny dealextreme listing though... got me laughing... "AC/USB powered design brings more convenient" LOL

Haha

Haha - I love how everyone ignored your snotty dumbass comment. Maybe this site shouldnt exist because you can find all the data it hosts by searching google.com - Dont be such a jackass next time. Let the guy post something he feels is important

ddoughty, appreciate the backup but he's right. I thought I was posting fresh news and didn't follow proper protocol to check first before posting.
not sure why this thread got so much more attention, except maybe I used a bit more of a descriptive thread title.

Samsung charge media dock

The dock is pretty nice hardware

now did u get just the dock for 39.99 or the dock with spare battery for 49.99?

Kind of sucks that it doesn't come with the needed HDMI cable though. At least the one I saw at the VZW store today didn't have it.

luckily the one from my Xoom will work
besides, they are only $1.46 on amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon-HDMI-M...0Z9Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1305386226&sr=8-1
works great.

Where did you order the dock from?

They have them in store or you can order them through customer service.

if you get it through customer service or in store ask for the one WITH the battery, its $10 more and it comes with an extra OEM battery you can charge in the dock without needing the battery in the phone.

Does anyone know if this is available online anywhere?
I am not entirely surprised that my store 1. didn't even know they could sell me the charge 2. didn't have any accessories for it.
Thats what I get for living in Maine I guess

not a corporate store? I think only independant resellers don't have the charge or accessories for it.

No its a corporate store, just not well informed. I will maybe stop in again today and see if they have the media dock.

hmmm if my store was that misinformed idk how we would function lmao. If they still dont have it just ask them for the SKU and order it from customer service over the phone.

is it possible to use this dock with a case on teh phone?

Nope. I just tried.

I like the deal that I got the battery with mine, and it's kinda slick, but was VERY disappointed that there isn't a video out that goes with the dock. Why didn't they put the HDMI port on the same side so that you could have HDMI out while on the cradle?

I love mine as a bed side dock but this should not be considered a media dock...
The extra battery is what made it to good deal for sure.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App

The dock is nice and the extra battery is always a plus. I do like that the have a line out port on the back of the dock, but it would have been infinitely better if the dock had an HDMI out feature.

I got one when I picked up my phone yesterday. I LOVE IT!

Does this charge the phone while it's sitting in it?

Extended battery case for the Sensation

Is there an extended battery case for the Sensation? For example, a case where you flip a switch and it charges the battery? My Anker battery doesn't last me the whole day, a dismal 6 hours. I need more than that. Any help would be appreciated!

I found this PowerSkin. I will look into it, after I get paid. I really need my phone to last the whole day. My school day is from 6:30am-8pm, and then I have work afterwords! So, this PowerSkin, although it's very expensive might do me the trick.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/XPAL-PowerS..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item484e3683df I shortly found this too. Can you tell me if this is legit? If so I'm buying IMMEDIATELY.

It's probably legit. They were selling it for $5 shipped in their official site. I don't like its quality very much. Mine is 6 months old. I barely used it and it's charging for only 6 hours (it used to charge for like 13 hours before - it might be at half capacity). And sometimes it doesn't charge. I need to unplug and plug again to it starts charging. Maybe only mine was defective.
If I were you I'd buy an anker external battery (or of some other good brand).
I bought powerskin because it was $5 and I just suggested because it's the only extended battery inside a case I know.

Thing is that I bought an Anker battery, and it didn't last me as much as I thought it would. $5 shipped?! What the hell. Did they mark it up because it is rare now?! I mean, if you say it's good quality, I'll get it. Apparently the seller is in Brooklyn, so I could get it a bit faster. Like, when you say $5 shipped, you mean that the case was $5 or the shipping was $5. I'm feeling some type of way right now.

I believe $49.99 was the original retail price. The manufacturer overestimated demand and put it on clearance at a ridiculously low price. That was back in December I think. Unfortunately those are all gone now so we're left buying from third parties.

GooseWhite QI-ELF 1A QI charger for $25 + tax

Here is the Amazon link
http://www.amazon.com/GooseWhite-Po...1RS2KAEN60CZP&qid=1377203998&s=generic&sr=1-5
I just ordered it, I will post a review once I get it...I like how it looks in the pictures, and it seems to be possibly better than the China branded ones from Ebay or Amazon....so we shall see...
here's the Amazon pictures until i have actual ones

so in about a week or so i'll post the review and actual pictures
i figured since the 3 people who ordered their other Qi charger were satisfied that i would give this one a shot...it's a decent price and i like the looks...and it has a buzzer as well as an LED to let you know when it's done charging

Let us know how this one pans out.
I bought one of the DT-900's (on sale).. it worked great for 2 days.. and I haven't been able to get it to work since with my N4 (still works fine with my N7).

Only thing that really interests me on this one is the 1A charge, seems like that would definitely be on the high end for Qi chargers.

All of those pictures are CGI. I would wait for real photographs.

Yeah, that's why I got it, I'm hoping it actually IS what it says it is

I´ve just got it. Looks nice and works well, BUT it plays a moderately loud sound when you put your nexus to charge. This is very annoying because i use it when i go to sleep and awakes my wife.
Obviously i am not going to risk my marriage for an iq charger Anyone knows how to disable the sound? I´ve opened it, but i´ve found no buzzer in the circuit. I don´t mind breaking the buzzer if needed.
