Mophie Debuts Juice Pack Plus iPhone 4 Battery Pack + Case

There aren't too many people who own iPhone 4 handsets and yet still have no case; Apple was handing them out for free for a couple of months, after all. But if you need something different, or just a case that does a little more than your average case, Mophie has something of the sort. The company has just introduced the juice pack plus, their 2nd-generation iPhone 4 juice pack product and the largest to date in terms of battery capacity.

It's a sleek and slender case, looking a lot like an Apple iPhone Bumper with a backplate. It has a 2,000 mAh battery capacity, which trumps all other juice packs to date. In keeping with mophie’s award-winning juice pack design, the juice pack plus is ultra-thin and light-weight, providing protection and now even more power for the iPhone 4 while adding only 1 mm of thickness when compared to the original juice pack air design. That's a pretty minor price to pay for double the battery life, and it also  acts as a virtual speaker box, redirecting sound from the bottom of the iPhone 4 to the front, resulting in a richer, fuller sound quality.

It's available now in black, but will soon ship in cyan, magenta, and yellow as well. It's $99.95, and if you burn through your iPhone 4 battery life frequently, it's probably well worth it.
