news 28 Posted June 15, 2009 Everything USB is pleased to announce our in-depth Mophie Juice Pack Air iPhone Battery Pack review. Ask any moderately serious iPhone 3G user about the device's biggest weaknesses and most will say battery life and the unit's susceptibility to scratches. Mophie's Juice Pack Air iPhone battery pack attempts to address both of these issues simultaneously, with a companion product to the very popular Juice Pack for iPhone 3G. I take my power-hungry iPhone 3G for a spin with the shiny new Juice Pack Air to see if for $79 you can have it all. http://www.everythingusb.com/mophie-juice-pack-air-16843.html Verdict: An extremely well-executed product for any iPhone 3G user. Mophie definitely gets shiny, as the Juice Pack Air is unbelievably glossy while at the same time very protective of the precious contents it encases. It fits like a glove, works as it should, and looks really smart in the process. That Mophie asks $20 less than the original Juice Pack for iPhone 3G is just brilliant. The Good: + Provides about 5 extra hours of Wi-Fi use + Charges iPhone 3G while in case + Slimmer and lighter than the original + Flawless glossy finish + Fully encases the iPhone for max. protection The Bad: - Micro USB port requires rare cable - Renders docking accessories useless unless case is removed - iPhone 3G can't report Juice Pack Air's remaining capacity - Glossy finish shows scratches easily - Cannot power phone without charging the iPhone We hope you and your readers will find this review helpful and informative.
