Mophie Juice Pack Access battery case coming soon to latest iPhones
The battery cases for the iPhone X, XS, XS Max and XR aren't cheap, but they do feature wireless charging and full access to the Lightning port.
Mophie will soon have a new battery case for the latest iPhones .
The Juice Pack Access is set to ship before the end of March and has a built-in battery, wireless charging capabilities and is cut out at the bottom so you can use the Lighting port to plug the Lightning EarPods -- or any other Lightning headphones. At $120, it definitely qualifies as a premium battery case. (No word on international pricing but we'll add it as soon as we get it).
The new design seems like a nice step forward for Mophie battery cases. It's also worth noting that while you can charge both your case and phone by laying them on a Qi-enabled wireless charging pad, you can also charge the case via USB-C. A cable is included.
