Has anyone here bought extra chargers, car chargers, batteries etc?
Whats the deal with the different size charger?
Lots of mixed comments online like the 2.0a charger and 3.0 cable combination give a faster charge.
Any truth to all that? if i need multiple chargers, should i be buying extras or just use the old ones i have from previous phones?

They dont charge as fast... I bought the orginals and works mu ch better then my S3 charger.

I am not sure the exact model. I don't  want the international one. I want one that can be used in H2O. It will be used as a gift.

There are 2 International Models

The G900H and G900F (both will work with H20)

I sell both those models. You could PM me.

The other models are the G900A, G900T, G900V, G900P
Those are all the carrier branded models. They may or may not come unlocked.

As far as a car charger this is the one you should get for the s5. It charges very quickly and I'm very happy with it. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DDLYCUW/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_nQNLtb09K8DXP

do you use the built-in cable or do you plug in a 3.0?

I plug it in as is. But being that it's 24w, it is made for powerful phones such as the s5, so if you're using the gps etc. while charging, you'll still be charging rather than losing power. I saw it recommended on the xda forums and couldn't be happier.

There is a black one and a white one. The white one comes with a lightning cable. You are referring to the black one with the traditional micro usb, correct?

When taking a video and then taking a picture while videoing, it will make a split second pause in the video.

Anyone else having this?

My batt was amazing the first month now its just as bad as any phone. I brought it in and they do this 10 min test to see if it goes down a certain amount, if it does they give me a new batt. Its supposed to go down 10%, mine went down 9%.

question is is it worth it to buy a double batt for my s5 or buy an extra battery as a replacement for when the first one dies?
If you have any questions please search and then ask. PM me for detailed help.

How would you keep the second one charged?

If you register your s5 with Samsung they should email you a 50% discount on accessories from their site. That brought down the price of an original Samsung extra battery kit plus it's own charger to about $25
