Heavy, doesn’t protect screen but works great, got two full charges from 20%
FYI NOT APPLE CAR PLAY COMPATIBLE CASE HAS TO BE REMOVED. I have an iPhone 7 and battery dies after about 4 hours of use. Once it hits 20% I set it low power mode and then turn on the battery pack. It charged to 100%. I use my phone all the way to 20% again and I can just get another charge to 100% before the pack dies. ONLY ISSUE IS IT IS HEAVY AND HAS NO SCREEN PROTECTION. My temper glass cracked after its first fall on face. Raised lip on my old case protected from many falls. This case has no raised lip.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality battery case
Reviewed in Canada on June 5, 2019
Verified Purchase
I received this case about 5 days ago and have charged both the case and then my phone with the case. Works wonderfully and no problems so far. The case I received is one piece and seems to be very sturdy construction. It was easy to put my phone in and all buttons are easy to use. Battery LED's all function well and I can so how much charge left in the battery case. Simple 1 button operation to start charging phone. I just make sure the phone is fully charged before charging the case. Happy with the quality and ease of use. It does add more weight but is still slimmer and easier to hold than my last billfold style case was. Much easier to slip into a pocket.
Shipping was fast and the case arrived in under 7 days. That was about 2 weeks earlier than Amazon's expected delivery date and they are usually very close when estimating these in my experience.
Outstanding customer service from vendor with fast responses to emails.

I was sick of my terrible battery life on my phone! This case works extremely well with my iPhone 7, which, before I had this case it would die easily halfway through the day. Once I got this case my phone could go 2 days without charging. The charging case turns on and off which the touch of a button, easy to use, use it when you want!

You can charge the case and the phone at once, which is a bonus to have everything topped up for your adventures.

It's also nice how you can still use the lightning port as the case has one build into it (for headphones, aux, etc)

3.0 out of 5 stars Charges well but doesn't last
Reviewed in Canada on December 11, 2020
Verified Purchase
I bought this model to replace the one I have that has a loose port. The battery pack charged quick enough, but drains much quicker than my three year old beat up one. My old one will still get me through a day without having to recharge it, this one, under the same circumstances only lasted half a day. It is well constructed and will protect everything but the screen in a fall. It also has a handy kickstand. The other down side is that it is a two step charging process. You have to turn the case on to start charging the phone, and then plug the case in to charge or the case won't charge. Mine was hit or miss getting that to work. I can't recommend this based on my experience.

Much heavier than expected. I've used four different battery cases and it works as expected. I bur through battery and this gives me lots of juice.
Easy to install and secure on the phone. Others I've tried started coming loose as the weeks and months passed but this is solid.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware!! Shady Company! Connection port comes loose easily after awhile of using it.
Reviewed in Canada on January 9, 2024
Verified Purchase
Edited to add: After seeing my poor review, the company messaged me telling me that they would refund me for my most recent order. Initially, I was pleased, however, a couple of days later, they sent me another message asking me to take down the review in exchange for a refund. This company is VERY SHADY! They will stop at nothing short of trying to BRIBE you to take down your negative review, so that you can get your money back for THEIR, defective product. Unbelievable! Do yourself a favour and take your business elsewhere!!

The battery pack alone seems to work well to extend the life of a charge, however, the connection port comes loose easily. Each time, I thought it was my fault; that I had somehow been too rough with disconnecting the charging cord, so I just placed an order for a new one. However, after reading the reviews, I’ve learned that this is a flaw in the product. As a result, I now regret placing yet another order, and feel that the company should replace it for me. I won’t be ordering again after this one. I’ve already lost too much money. I wish I had read the reviews sooner. My bad.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great case and my battery frustrations are gone
Reviewed in Canada on November 27, 2019

I had a brand new Apple Iphone battery installed and I still could barely make it through the day. I don't know if you are like me but the prospect of being "tethered" throughout the day to cords at home, the office and in the car is frustrating.
This battery case is one of the best purchases that I made this year! Is it a slim case? No! BUT, if you are looking for supplemental battery power you are going to have to deal with the added thickness. I can go 2 to 3 days without a recharge. Battery on phone getting low? Easy, press the small button at the back of the case and it automatically switched to the battery pack power and starts recharging your main phone battery. This is a must for anyone that needs to depend on having a charged phone and not wanting to deal with cables all day. Highly recommended!

I had a problem with my initial pair. After notifying the seller, they sent a brand new one 2 (!) days later. Amazing service.

PROS:
Holds a charge
Music sounds exactly the same with cover on as compared to cover off
Seems durable, good quality
Has a nice stand

CON:
Bulky, but to be expected,... I don't think there's a way to get past this with the amount of battery included
First one did not work as planned.

2.0 out of 5 stars Switching to Brand-name model.
Reviewed in Canada on September 25, 2020
Verified Purchase
I previously owned a Mophie battery case so switching to this case for half the price was my first mistake. Do certainly do get what you pay for.

The case was structurally sound but the battery feature was just unusable for me. I want to be able to plug in once, and have the case and battery charge. With this case you have to press the button, then plug in the case, then it will charge the phone full, then the case. So your battery won’t be charged when you wake up and down quite a bit if your phone does anything like a nightly update. The charge worked well when pressing the button and the case wasn’t plugged in but the press-then-charge only worked ever couple of times. The charge indicator on my phone flashes randomly on as off as if the device wasn’t compatible (iPhone 8). Returning to Amazon and buying higher priced brand-name model.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Case if these are the features you want.
Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2019

I spent a lot of time researching phone cases on and off Amazon. Like most people (I expect), after owning a smartphone and smartphone cases for many years, I have developed a long list of wants, needs, likes and dislikes. That is to say, when it comes to phone cases, one person's gem is another's unusable piece of (#&&@@*. Consider my review accordingly:

(BTW, it's likely very apparent, but I am not a paid reviewer and I do not post a lot of product reviews. However, I have spent an inordinant amount of time researching and thinking about something as innocuous as an iphone case, so I hope that all this effort can be of help to someone else. Maybe you.)

This review is primarily for people who are looking for a BATTERY iphone 6/7 case that (1) has a lightning (not mini/micro USB) connection that will (2) enable both data syncing and playing of audio. There seem to be a few, but very few, cases on the market that meet this requirement. If these things are not must-haves for you, I would suggest looking at other cases -- as well as this one, perhaps.

Battery Cases In General. For anyone who is not accustomed to the size and weight that ANY battery case adds, then I strongly suggest you find someone with a battery case on their phone and check it out. Many people post negative reviews (this product and others) about added size and weight. Newsflash folks -- that's where the technology is today. Granted, some battery cases are bigger and heavier than others. I had a Mophie Juice that was meaningfully thinner and less weighty than this case, but the Mophie did not provide nearly as much battery capacity, couldn't sync, and used a micro USB cable (ugh!). I've also seen specs on battery cases that truly read like small bricks -- those cases (pun intended!) provided even more battery capacity. Surprise. If you like a little added weight and size (yes, some of us actually do like that), then a battery case is a nice change of form factor. However, if having the slimest, lightest phone is important to you, you are going to hate all battery cases (at least those available today). And, I mean hate. So, if you're not sure, do yourself a favor and try one out in real life before buying.

Now - about this battery case, I give it five stars for having the features I most want (noted above) and providing at least 2x, perhaps 3x charging on my iPhone 6. Note: I did not actually measure these figures, but after a few months of use, that seems to be the performance I'm getting and I love it.

However, I removed one and one-half stars because (1) if you fail to push the button on the back each and every time you connect to power/computer, the case will do nothing - i.e., it won't charge, it won't snyc, and it won't push music out the lightning connector. Of course, if it's not syncing or playing, just push the button -- no big deal. However, if you connect it to power to charge and forget to push the button, it gives no alert and does not charge, meaning that it's easy to wake up in the morning and find a dead phone (and sometimes a dead battery, too). That's really not cool. It is just too easy to forget, or to think you've pushed the button, but haven't. Also, I'm fairly certain that the battery case sometimes looses its connection to power -- so, even though I've pushed the button, it stops charging at some point. It hasn't happened often and usually has enough power in the battery for me anyway, but it's frustrating.

I removed the other half-star because, even though I can sync to iTunes through the case, i cannot sync photos to iphoto through the case. Thus, to sync photos, I have to remove the case completely to snyc. It's not a huge problem, but it is a bit frustrating and I cannot fathom why data snyc works with iTunes, but not iPhoto. Also, same problem with updating the software -- which I do much less frequently, but FYI.

A few other considerations -- the design of the case is such that the front edge of the case is almost flush with the face of the phone. The benefit to this design is the case is that much slimmer (not that it's a slim case - see above, but it would be really, really bulky if the case extended beyond the face of the phone). The downside is that this case is not going to protect your screen. If you drop the phone on its face, or partially so, your screen is going to take a direct hit. So, it's all the more important to have a good quality glass protector and be mentally prepared to replace your screen if you have a bad drop at the wrong angle.

As to the case's protection (other than a face plant), this case will likely help if dropped on its back or the side. I've had a few very minor drops so far and the case has held up well and protected the phone.

Some battery cases can get fairly hot. So far, this one gets warm from time to time, but it's not been an issue for me at all.

If the phone is charged at 100%, you can, if you want, push the button on the case and continue charging while in use -- i.e., in effect running the phone from the case battery w/o depleting the phone battery. And, you can charge while using the phone. Cool!

The 3.5mm headphone jack is easily accessible -- at least with the handful of headphones/cables that I've connected. However, I'm sure there are cables that won't fit, as the molded plastic is cut fairly tight around the jack. If you have an expensive device that needs a 3.5mm wired connection to your phone to work, consider the risk. (Note, I think some folks have filed this part of the case to enlarge the whole - but, I cannot recommend it, as I haven't tried it.) On the other hand, if you use inexpensive headphone/buds or wireless, this is likely not an issue, either way.

I've not noticed any degredation or blocking of signal and the iPhone's onboard speeaker works fine. Yeah!

The cutout for the back camera and light works fine, but because this is a multi-model case, it's not particularly elegant or attractive. My first reaction was "yuk," but I got over it. Later, I realized that the extra large cutout makes it much easier to remove the phone from the case -- just place your finger into the cutout and push the top of the phone slightly out of the case (not too far or you'll damage the connector) and lift up. So, it's ugly and not very protective of the camera, but it is handy.

The voume and power buttons on the case all work fine and are easy to use. No problems. Some people may have difficulty flipping the small "silence" button on the side of the phone. If you have super short finger nails, you may need to find a paperclip or something.

Ah, I almost forgot, there is a small plastic stand that fits flush in the case and is easy to pop out for use. I have not had a need for it, but I expect some people will find it useful. Having said that, it does feel a bit flimsy and I could see someone who is a bit rough with things easily breaking it.

Last, the blue power lights on the back are great at indicating when the case is charging your phone and give you a rough idea how much power the case has. Unfortunately, that little set of blue lights are so bright (and they stay on while charging) that they add considerable light to a dark room. If you like a dark room for sleeping (like me), you may have to put the phone face up, if it is next to your bed, so that the blue lights are face down on the night stand. (Hence part of the reason I sometimes don't notice when the battery/phone is not actually charging.)

So many considerations for a phone case. I think one of the key questions to ask yourself is, what is most important to you in a phone case:

Phone Protection: this case is okay, but purley from a point of protection, there are much better non-battery cases and some better battery cases.

Style, Size/Weight, & Design: unless you really like the style of large, bulky, plain cases, I doubt any battery case is going to check this box. Battery cases are large, bulky, and generally not very attractive (although there are some exceptions to the design - my Mophie case was a very nice, deep red with a nice finish. Not very unique, but arguably nicer than a black, rubber box design.)

Battery Capacity: for most users, I expect this case will provide a good balance of power and size, but if you're a super heavy user or want days and days of capacity, you'll have to look for a larger (heavier) case with more power. There are also cases with less power that are more stylish and smaller/lighter in form factor, but they provide other trade-offs.

Connectivity: how important is it to not have to carry around both lightening and USB cables and to not have to remove your case, or part of it, to snyc and/or play music?

Until there are better options in the market, I would probably buy this case again -- but, I really hope that battery and case technology and design improves soon. Smartphone cover nirvana is still a ways off.

Great customer service, too!

en general es una buena bateria, pero tiene un gran desventaja: cuando la conectas solo carga la carcasa y NO el telefono a menos que presiones el boton, todas las baterias que he tenido tienen passthrough charging es decir cargan la bateria Y el telefono, en esta eso es un gran invonveniente pore o usas el cable para cargar la bateria externa o usas la bateria externa para cargar el iphone. :(
