Not too good over time…

Updated review: Only six months old, the battery can no longer charge my phone. I figure I got about 1/4 of a charge on it this morning, and my phone went dead on my bike ride today. Now I’m here looking for a replacement. They’ve also tripled the price. Feel for you folks out there thinking about plucking down your hard cash on this battery. I say don’t do it.Here is my initial review: This case is working well with my iPhone Pro Max 13. I was pleased to see that it also charges wirelessly when my last battery case did not. It's a bit less powerful than my prior battery case too, but I think battery life is sufficient given its storage capabilities. This is a slender battery case and my primary reason in purchasing this particular one was to use it with a smartphone holder on my bicycle (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08D8SJ1PB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1). It fills up the phone holder but it does fit and stays attached. While I am out biking, I run the Strava app with the display locked on. The battery case allows me to not worry about how much of a charge I have on my phone before I go for a ride. While riding, with this setup, I have a constantly changing map up on Strava showing me where I am and various routes I can take. Very cool! The set up is working well and this battery case is recommended for this use as well as the smartphone holder.

Pros
  • Durable, high-quality materials
Cons
  • The case has a plasticky texture
