The charging time from 0-> 100% is 265 minutes (4 hours 25 minutes). So far everything ok.
The term is simply fantastic. When 3tem cycle the machine stops with me under normal use since 2d 13h through and there are even 10% above. Excellent!
The stated capacity is therefore certainly correct itself 5500mAh I would have believed.
NFC seems, at least not to work with me. (Only 1 star deduction)
Now to the big gripe. The back cover. 3 positive things there were already here.
First, is not covered solely by the thickness of the loudspeaker and you can sometimes play a song when the device is on the back.
Second, it fits quite well, no bumps.
Third, surprisingly has improved the WLAN to 4 dBm my signal quality. Checked repeatedly.
But what good is all this if it is so extremely ugly ... from cheapest plastic.
Especially in the summer when the hands are something sweaty, the device feels incredibly uncomfortable in his hand. In addition, it is certainly too thick for my hands.
Is and remains simply the look the worst. I am normal in smartphones not as demanding, otherwise I would have rather resorted to an iPhone or HTC One. But is made as ugly as the actually quite acceptable Galaxy S4 here is simply not acceptable to me. And unfortunately, there are of course no longer the chance compatible cases to buy in order to conceal this, but the unit is simply too thick. (2 star deduction)
So Who optics and possibly NFC functionality does not care and has great hands who gets here a super battery with the device runs almost eternally.
Otherwise I do not recommendation.
Update 20.06.2013
Just one day after publication of the review I have been contacted by the seller. I suppose that the NFC will therefore function normally and I caught a bad battery. The ursprüglich withdrawn yesterday I'll add again.
