Mophie resurrects its battery case for most of the iPhone 15 family at CES 2024

AppleInsider

Mophie is going back to its roots for CES 2024 with the re-introduction of its juice pack battery case for the iPhone 15 line, alongside releasing more details on its Qi2 chargers.

Mophie Juice Pack case returns

After years of developing phone cases that incorporated batteries, Mophie stopped after the iPhone 8. Now, there is a new version of the Juice Pack case for iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

These all-in-one cases have a 2,400 to 2,800 mAh capacity battery contained inside. When connected to a power supply, it will prioritize the iPhone, and only charge the case once the iPhone is sufficiently charged.

The new Juice Pack case also has a soft-touch ABS exterior, a slim design, and smart circuitry to always deliver the right amount of charge to your phone.

These new cases will hit the market in February for $99.95. Notably there is no battery case for the iPhone 15 Plus.

Mophie Qi2 battery pack

Mophie took the chance to also highlight its previously-announced Qi2 accessories, starting with the Snap+ PowerStation Mini. It is a 5,000 mAh portable Qi2 battery pack that can deliver up to 15W of power and has a built-in kickstand.

You can pick up the Snap+ PowerStation Mini for $69.95 when it ships in March.

Mophie's new Qi2 chargers

Mophie's Snap+ 3-in-1 stand is another Qi2 charger to power your iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch at once in a compact form factor.

The Snap+ Wireless Charging Vent Mount is also coming. It uses an extending arm to put your iPhone in the right position while driving.

The 3-in-1 will cost $129.95 and the charging vent mount will be $69.95. They both ship in March as well.

I've owned and loved several Mophoe battery packs many years ago, but with how long the iPhone lasts these days on a single charge I can say that I will never need one again. Of course, there are surely use cases that will want much longer durations between charges or use apps that are considerably more power hungry than what I use, but I am curious what that number might be these days — even with the increase number of iPhone users over when Mophie first started I wonder if they are selling as many units.

I would love it if Apple would make another Smart Battery Case. While a cute trick, inductive charging is somewhat of a gimmick and not nearly as efficient for charging as a hard wired connection. While not attractive, the Apple Smart Battery Case was perfect...

I’ve had these and they’ve been good. Now that USB-C is standard the pass through  should be good.  These are great when your battery health starts to dip.
