The Galaxy Nexus is a beautiful phone, no doubt about it. That gorgeous 4.65-inch Super AMOLED Plus display paired with LTE support and a fresh build of ICS thrown in there for good measure is about as good as it gets. But the same things that make this phone great — its massive screen and LTE radio — are also the things that will leave you screaming at it at 4p.m. on a Thursday, when it’s completely dead.

But Samsung has prepared for this, launching an extended battery pack/cover bundle specifically for the Galaxy Nexus. It includes a Lithium Ion Extended Battery Cover, which is meant to offer extra coverage for your battery. A 2100 mAh extended battery is also included in the bundle.

Getting a battery life solution out to the masses early is a smart move by Samsung. Some of the biggest complaints about phones these days tend to revolve around battery life, especially when LTE is in the mix. The bundle costs $49.99 and is available now.
