Galaxy Nexus extended battery Despite the constant rumors of shifting release dates and reports of stock sitting in the back room – the Samsung Galaxy Nexus seems to be available all over the world but US right now. Yesterday, a new video surfaced online showing us the Verizon Galaxy Nexus in the wild – this time with the addition of the extended battery. The battery has a 2,100mAh capacity as opposed to the stock 1,850mAh battery that comes with the phone, and is also includes a new back cover to fit the battery in.

Good news for those of you who plan to purchase the extended battery: it’s not going to add too much bulk to your phone. The bad news? We still don’t know when the phone or battery is going to be released – so hang in there a little longer.
