Mophie releases an iPhone battery case with wireless charging
They aren't cheap
Mophie has released a new line of battery cases for the iPhone that will allow users to wirelessly charge their smartphones. The new Juice Pack battery cases come with a wireless charging base that will recharge your iPhone while magnetically holding it in place, making it usable on vertical surfaces like in a car, or on a stand on your desk. The new Juice Packs are compatible with the iPhone 6 / 6S and 6 Plus / 6S Plus providing an extra 1560mAh and 2420mAh, respectively. (There's also a version of the case for the Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge.)
The company is calling its new line of wireless products Charge Force, and is offering a desk stand and vent mount right out of the gate. But it'll cost you if you want to be able to charge your iPhone wirelessly wherever you are. The Juice Pack and included wireless charging base will cost you $99 for the 6 / 6S or $129 for the larger 6 Plus / 6S Plus version. The desk mount comes in at $59.95, as does the vent mount for your vehicle, bringing the grand total to a minimum of $220 to charge your iPhone wirelessly at home, work, and in the car. But who can really put a price on never plugging in a lightning cable again?
You can purchase all of Mophie's new wireless charging cases and accessories today on its website.
