The iPhone has poor battery life. So, double it with Mophie! – an iPhone NY tech tip

by New York Computer Help on June 8, 2009

The iPhone has improved upon its battery life with the new 3G release.  However, once you start watching a movie; listening to an album; or play a few games, you start to realize that you’re almost running on battery fumes.  The Mophie juice pack air has resolved the dreaded power issue of the iPhone.  After charging it up, it gives you double the battery juice of your current iPhone battery. 

Here are the cool factors with this rechargeable battery case:

  • It charges via USB and doesn’t require the iPhone during charging.
  • The device is slim and fits around your iPhone like a glove, acting like a protective layer
  • Provides 4 indicator lights to see when you’re running low
  • You can double your current battery life while using your iPhone
  • Mophie will first use its battery to deplete, so you can still have a fully charged iPhone afterwards
  • Did we mention it’s purple?!  Or the classic white and black.

 The InCase Power Slider was the first type of extra battery power that was produced for the iPhone.  We feel the Mophie is far more superior for the following reasons:

  • Mophie has longer battery life.
  • InCase Power Slider gets very hot to the touch.
  • Power Slider has a complicated sync process when connected.  The mophie doesn’t need as much tech support.
  • Power Slider is a little bigger and heavier.

The one advantage the Power Slider has is that it physically protects more of the iPhone casing than the Mophie.  But, this product is meant for giving more of a battery charge, not for scratch-protection.
