Best iPhone 5 Battery Case

I just ordered an iPhone 5 and was interested in possibly getting a battery case. I had the 4S and unfortunately the battery life really didn't cut it, It would drain in less then 5 hours. (Hopefully the iPhone 5 is better than that to begin with.)
So my question is, what is the best iPhone 5 battery case? I'm looking for something sleek and not too bulky. I took a look at the mophie helium/air but it seems like it makes the phone look outrageously tall.

ive tried a bunch - i actually like the mophie - there are a bunch you can find on amazon - just search uphone 5 battery cases
ivyskin
ww,ivyskin.com
makes one that has a detachable battery so you only need to attach the battery when needed - it also has a builtin screen protector - i had one for my 4S and they now have one for the 5 - product is not bad but customer service was awful
a company called third rail mobility
www.thirdrailmobility.com also has a case with a detachable battery (no builtin scren protector)  with thir case you can stack multiple batteries to get more power - of course it makes the case big and heavy - last time i looked they had not yet released their case for the iphone 5 though

  • I think I've found the best iPhone 3G case, What do you think?

    Just wanted to post some feedback on my experience with the ivyskin Glass Touch-Thru Ultrathin iPhone 3G Case.
    Yes I signed up just to write this review after being a perverse voyeur on these forums for awhile now, but I am no way affiliated with ivyskin. I recommend this case hands down, it has all that I was looking for in one. It's hard shell case with real glass touch screen built into the case. All ports are covered with a soft silicon so is the home button. The best part is that they'll be introducing a QuattroPac battery extension that fits into this case later next month.
    Putting it on is simple but you need to be careful about the volume switch, you need to insert the iPhone into the case from that side as instructed on the manual because I didn't want to break anything or scratch my phone, anyway it is quite simple.
    You should check this case out before you look at anything else, or after you look at all the cases to compare.

    No, but having slippery hands and accidentally dropping the iPhone will. A case will give you a much better grip and a lot better protection (if not 100%) should you ever drop the iPhone. I've seen people have iPhones without cases and dropping them accidentally only to have cracked their screens that they have to fork out more money to fix or replace them.
    Are you really that obtuse?

  • What are the best iPhone 5 cases that are slim? I don't want to add bulk to my phone.

    Looking for suggestions for slim cases - something that protects but doesn't add bulk.  I have a new black iPhone5 and need some guidance.
    Thanks in advance!

    www.monoprice.com has a good selection at very good prices - I have the edgeguard and am very satisfied with it

  • IXtreme iPhone extended battery case

    I have been searching for something like this for sooo long. I have an iPhone 4 and I hate the battery life. Im sure anyone that has an iPhone 4 knows about the battery life as a heavy user!
    I came across a place called iXtreme Accessories, that makes iPhone 4 battery cases. I bought a case a week ago to try it out, and it is hands down, the best extended battery case I have seen made for the iPhone 4! Its very thin and sleek, and it comes with replacement back housing. It offers twice the battery life. I figured I would throw it out there for anyone who is looking for an extended battery case that doesnt add a lot of bulk and has to have a different charging cable. I posted a like and an image of what it looks like.

    mophie makes a couple for the iphone5 - i have the mophie air - works fine but a little hard to get the phone out of the case since syncing doesnt work with the case (only charging - according to Mophie) - it uses the lightning connector- there are lots of others
    ivyskin makes a case for the iphone5 with a detachable battery - so you only have the extra weight when you have the battery attached - it also has a buitin screen protector
    www.ivyskin.com
    i had one for my 4S - pretty good case but the company has lousy customer service
    a company called Third Rail Mobility (www.thirdrailmobility) has a similar case for the 4S and is workin on one for the iPhone 5 but i dont think its available yet
    Also a search in Amazon for iphone 5 battery cases will show lots of others

  • IPhone battery dying after few hours from 100% charge

    Since I upgraded to the iOS 5.1 my battery life on the iPhone 4S has been ridiculous.
    For example, I left my house at 740am with my phone on 100%, I have browsed a little (safari and facebook) for no more than 20-30 mins in total.  No apps are not running in the background as I ensure to close apps once i have finished with them. And now at 1400 I am left with 28% battery. i am not due to be at home until 1900.
    Have I been unlucky with getting a dodgy iPhone from Orange?? the model is MD242B if that helps.
    Also, notifications and banners are all turned off except for phone, messages, whatsapp, remainders, calendar.
    I am careful not to over charge my phone, I do use an app called BatteryDoc to monitor my charging.
    I always let my battery go flat before charging to 100% (with no trickle change), i believe this is a normal charge and what BatteryDoc advises i perform a full charge..
    I am slowly regretting this phone after 6 months now.......
    any input is welcome.
    Thanks,
    Cookie

    This was driving me insane too. I love my iphone but this is the one flaw. I tried all the "maximizing battery life" suggestions, and it helped slightly.
    I have one suggestions: buy an iphone battery case. I bought one off ebay for $29.99 and it is amazing. Nearly doubles the battery and is way nicer than the one at Apple (not to mention 1/4 of the price). The item number is 200795419418 on eBay in case you are interested.
    Hope That Helped!!

  • What is the best iPhone 4/4s extended battery case? I've been reading reviews for a bunch of them, but they all seem to say the same thing.

    What is the best iPhone 4/4s extended battery case? I've been reading reviews for a bunch of them, but they all seem to say the same thing.

    Personally most of my co-workers are using the Mophie case. They are great quality but can be pretty pricey. All of my fellow co-workers have been using this case to help with the upsetting battery drain that comes with ios5. I have seen people drop the the iPhone with this case on and seems to be a good sturdy case with an extra 9 hour battery life. Anyway's here is their web site if you want to look into these cases further.

  • Thinest Battery case for iPhone 4

    Been thinking about actualy getting one...There has been a lot of high quality RPG Games that came out for the iPhone lately and i find my self killing my iPhone 4 in just half the day...
    Ive seen Morphi and MiLi...their Ok but a bit to bulky..
    I remember seeing something realy thin online a month ago...
    Anyone has recomendations?

    I've never heard of QYG Power, but they seem to make a bunch of products like that.
    Who knows? The only way to know is to buy one and see how it goes, since google did not find any reviews of it to turn to. For the price, it might be great, and at worst, it's not a fortune lost if it doesn't live up to what you'd like it to.
    From my experience with other 1300mAh rated battery cases and my 3Gs, it should give you likely about 1.6x-1.8x or therabouts the battery run time of your iPhone alone. You would have to experiment, but I found I got the most out of the battery if I put the phone in it fully charged, let it run off the external pack until that was exhausted and then run it on the internal iPhone battery.
    If I ran the iPhone down to 5%-10% battery and then popped it into the battery case, the 1300mAh external battery would be unable to fully charge the iPhone (when new, it would get it close, back up to 85%-95%), so I seemed to get my maximum total useable time by running a charged iPhone on the external first, then let the phone continue on it's own battery once the external was out.
    P.S. like any Li battery, don't let the external sit idle for weeks or months at a time, or it will degrade rapidly. Just like you iPhone's battery, it will do best if used periodically, and partial cycles should not be a problem with any Li battery.

  • Best iphone case

    Looking for a great iPhone 4S case for both my wife and me.  We both have Otterbox Defenders and keep waiting on the Armor to show up.  However, the Defender is rather bulky and based on the measurements of the Armor, it will be, too.  Have looked at LifeProof but a little hesitant about the screen cover (looks and feels cheap).  My wife would like something waterproof since her last phone (a BB) got moisture (from the air!) inside its battery compartment and killed it.  As for me, I also have a Speck case with a protective screen, but I always have to take it apart to clean it and went back to my Defender.  Any advice would be much appreciated!

    Just remember there isn't such thing as a best case. Depends on your needs and usage I guess. If you're careful with your things, a slim case would be best imo. Screen protector is optional but it increases the value of your handset when you decide to sell it if there are no scratches on the LCD.

  • What is the best external battery for iphone 4s

    what is the best external battery for iphone 4s

    I bought the Mophie juice pack™ powerstation from the Apple store for $80. It has more then enough power to quickly boost the charge on my iPhone4S to an acceptable level. It requires the standard 30pin/USB Apple cord to plug into it.
    But unless you need to charge your phone from 5-100%, this battery is overkill. It's a real hassle having the Apple cord connected to your phone whilst there's a battery in your pocket and you end up looking quite strange with your "corded" smartphone.
    I might recommend a battery case (Mophie has these), but they don't offer the protection that I need (I use a LifeProof case).  Instead I would buy a smaller Mophie juice pack™ reserve (keychain, direct plug) to get out of a bind and then charge up your iPhone in the car, wall, airplane, etc.
    My only concern with the above (direct plug batteries) is that the slightest bump and the battery becomes a lever that could break the 30 pin plug on your phone, just like that warily flimsy feeling when you put an iPhone in a dock.
    Hope that helps, at least in the Mophie department!

  • Use of external battery cases, does it harm the iphone's internal battery?

    Can the use of external battery cases harm the life of the internal battery in the iphone 4? (ie. Mophie juice pack air)

    Absolutely not, but if looking for a protective case i would not recommend the mophie but if just using your phone for commercial use, then yes definitely use, it's helpful when you need a cordless charger
