I have this one: amazon/B00K5AYMBS Works pretty well, I usually get about 2 full charges out of it before it needs to be recharged.

Another vote for a RAVpower battery pack but they don't sell my model on Amazon anymore. You can get a 14000 mAh one for 39.99. That's good for 4 solid full charges from 0% plus some left over on your Note 2 , What I really like about RAVpower packs are the 2 USB ports. You could charge both devices at once if you really had to.

Actually, the best one you can get is Anker Astro 3, currently on Amazon for $45.99 - Amazon.com: [Upgraded Version & All Smart Ports] Anker

Except I like the idea of having one with a built in micro-usb cord myself.

Can't, the way the cord is designed, I have a otterbox case on so it won't plug in.

It sports a 2600mAh cell, which should be enough to provide most smartphones with plenty of extra charge.

You can get the same lipstick battery in 3000 mAh capacity cheaper for $19.99 (versus the other powerocks for $26): Amazon.com: Anker

I got this one a few weeks ago and love it: https://www.amazon.com/Innogie-PPM900-6600mah-Smartphones-Tablets/dp/B00WU4NQT6
It's about the size of my galaxy s6 (a little bigger diagonally, noticeably thinner than phone + case), it charges my phone much quicker than I expected, and holds well over one full charge.

I'm looking for a new one too. Stick to a well known brand, and then pick the specs you need.
I have a 10,000 mah KMASHI that lied about the specs (I've measured), and now has, what I think is, a bad cell, because it will NEVER fully charge, yet it will lose charge over a day or two. Or more. Point is... it was nothing but trouble because I went cheap.

Acid Eye Power bank is best to buy online from its website or amazon.
