    Mini USB broke in 1 month why would you make such a cheap port, also the battery is held together with masking tape! This has to be illegal the thing could catch fire.

    I bought another case as for $20 from a cheaper brand and it has lasted 7 months more than this poorly made unsafe fire hazard apple don't carry this brand it makes your products look bad.

    Great for the first few months..

    Worked great for a few months then suddenly wouldn't charge. I took it back to the store and they replaced it with a new one. That one lasted even less time! Once again it won't charge but it still connects my phone to the computer so it isn't the cable. Crummy product that I would not recommend to anyone.

    handle with care

    Ok, assuming all you people who review this have had a mophie for a said amount of time, I will say this: this case is great to those who take care of their stuff. I have 3 and my friend has 2. We have had no problems whatsoever. Honestly we all know that life proofs and otter boxes get thrown around and break but this isn't that kind of case. I may be comparing to the other major phone case brands but this case works wonders for its job: CHARGING.

    Tips:
    - switch the case off to have more charge and save the case from cycles
    -avoid dropping because the battery lies in the back of the case
    -avoid putting in a pocket with other objects to prevent scratching

    Two Strikes: Mophie OUT!

    • Written by from Lexington

    13 of 14 people found this useful

    This product was exactly what I needed but did not survive ordinary use for 6 months. Took it back since charging port would not hold on to USB jack. It was replaced by Sprint (where I bought it) but the same thing happened to the second one, only in shorter time. This is not a product that should be associated with Apple as quality is very poor. I will try some other brand next.

    The product does what it is designed to do but when mine is in standby mode it mutes my phone. I had the same problem with the Mophie I had for a month and the Apple store replaced it; now this one is doing the same thing !???

    looks are deceiving

    Everyone is saying the same thing. Great idea, less than acceptable quality. My phone fell from a chair onto a wooden floor and the top piece flew off and cracked in 2 places, making it difficult to put back together.
    Battery is average.
    $80 is a lot to pay for product that is not ready for the consumer.
    I hope the company is reading these reviews and making the adjustments because I'd buy another one if the product was of higher quality.

    Waste of money

    • Written by from Roswell

    I bought it thinking that it would keep me from having to charge for 2 days. It barely lasts an additiona 6 hours and I keep all of my apps closed and blue tooth turned off. Also a horrible feature of this "lack of Juice" pack is the power plug. it is so short that it keeps falling out and you don't even realize it. That is ok when you are in the office and it is lying nicely on the desk, but when you are in the car charging it, it is constantly falling out and not charging.

    Good Idea. TERRIBLE quality & support.

    It was amazing while it lasted - all of 2 months. Then the small switch broke. I contacted Mophie who asked for my orginal receipt, despite the fact I registered it. Needless to say - I could not find that receipt (my own fault) and I was out of luck. Well as underwhelmed as I was with their service, I was sad to see $100 wasted as it fell apart amd stopped working from regular use within 4 months.

    Terrible product.

    Both of my mophie lasted around 6 months. The first one was a design flaw. So I bought a 2nd one with a better design. Good design but it says its not compatible with my iphone. So I have 2 juice pack that are not compatible. Brutal.

    not durable

    • Written by from Fayetteville

    8 of 9 people found this useful

    It worked well in the first few months. It definitely adds battery life. The case protects the phone from drops but sacrifices itself in doing so. It literally comes apart at the seams after a small drop. I have extended its life about 6 weeks with superglue but now it has come totally apart. It lasted about 5 months. Wouldn't recommend.

    Poor Quality

    This is the 2nd one I've had. Now this one is having the same problem as the first. The charging connector has failed on two occasions and I'm not gonna try a thrid. The product is great when it works but it doesn't work for very long.

    Product failed after 1 month

    As others have stated, it was great while it lasted which was about 1 month. Then the case stopped charging up, and I'm guessing that it's a connection failure with the mini USB port...

    An OK battery case.

    • Written by from Lawrenceville

    1 of 2 people found this useful

    Brief:
    It's a fair battery case. I wouldn't recommend it. Protects well with the exception of the front screen which is likely to take on damage if it falls on a surface with gravel for example.

    Explained:
    The case itself has a nice feel and adds a little weight to the phone. As far as protection goes, this case has served its purpose while taking mild damage to it. I've dropped it between 4-6 times in the one year since I've owned it. The overall case has held together through various incidences. The battery aspect of the case is good. It will charge from a 5% charge to around 80-85% depending on usage. It's a battery, so over the life of its cycles it will eventually degrade. I would estimate around 8-9 months the battery seemingly stopped holding a lasting charge and wold intermittently stop charging and require a removal of the bottom half and reconnection. Only then it would continue its remaining charge. Overall its an OK case.

    Great to really bad really quickly!

    • Written by from Sykesville

    It works great until Apple has an update...then the phone does not recognize the battery! You get a big yellow triangle with an exclamation mark!

    I was told that it was " likely a defect that is causing the case to have a conflict with the updated charging specifications in the new iOS" and it's an "internal problem for which we have no sanctioned fixes for the consumer to pursue. It would need to be replaced." So, every time Apple creates an update I've got to get a new Mophie!! I think not!

    Frustrating that this is a product that Apple endorses and sells and yet the updates don't allow me to use it!

    Mophie battery loss

    • Written by from Bristol

    13 of 16 people found this useful

    Initially the Mophie for iPhone 4S was brilliant. It carried enough juice for charging phone from 5 to 85%.
    however, after 6 months it only manages 20% and often has loss of connection to charge requiring the bottom section to be remived and reconnected. Also error messages on phone saying unrecognised device require same action.
    All in all it has a poor life for an expensive device.
    Chances of replacement at Apple Store? Slim I guess.

    Great idea but does not last...FAIL!

    • Written by from Granite Bay

    I love the idea of having an extra battery. I liked the look and feel of this product, but unfortunately Mophie needs to redesign it. First of all the camera does not work well at night in this case. The flash puts a glare on the photos and the photos come out blurry. I had to take my iPhone out of the case to use the camera with the flash. I had problems with the charging port. I had trouble keeping the connection and sometimes had to tape it to hold the connection. My Mophie started to give me problems 6 months into use and just two weeks over a year of having it, it stopped working all together. Its to expensive for all the problems!.

    Poor Quality

    • Written by from Fair Haven

    9 of 12 people found this useful

    Do not by this product! While the extra battery life was great it only lasted a short time. I bought this only about 4 months ago. By two months the case started to fall apart and now the charging port has broke. This is a cheap product that is overpriced. I was going to have this case replaced but it is not even worth the effort.

    Great idea, terrible execution

    Mophie has to go back to the drawing board with their design. The charger connection is useless after a couple of weeks. I've gone through two of the cases already & won't be buying a third.

    Poor design, short life expectancy

    • Written by from Lockport

    34 of 35 people found this useful

    Here's the deal. The product works great out-of-the-box. Due to the design, the micro USB connect gradually becomes loose sinking into the case and eventually you lose your ability to charge the unit. You will be lucky to get more than 6 months of use from this product. That said and considering the disposable nature of this product, I would recommend looking at less expensive charging cases that perform just as well.

    Great battery life, terrible design that will break.

    • Written by from Vancouver

    34 of 36 people found this useful

    While this device is great for having extra battery juice, what the other reviewers say is absolutely true. This product breaks EASILY. Myself and two others have within a week of buying one, also damaged it -- One of us have already broken the charging port (as indicated by others to be fragile) and two of us have dropped the case and have cracks in it now. Thus, if you think your case will survive a fall, rest assured. It WILL NOT. Lastly, this device is uncomfortable to hold while plugged in because of the location of the power port. Mophie needs to go back to the drawing board.

    Awarding 1 star for the battery life, but really can't give any more due to the obviously faulty design: not drop resistant, power port is fragile, and the issue with holding the device while plugged in...

    Posting this review for black, white, and red products as they are all the same.
