The time of year has come where I’m super happy because the smart battery case has launched. I’ve been getting this case since I had the 6. It’s a great case to have when traveling or when you need to leave work in a hurry and can’t be tethered to an outlet. I also have an Anker USB-C powerbank that supports fast charging. When the case is drained I drop it into my bag and let it charge by powerbank while I’m still out. This is really a no brainer.
Only thing I’m doing different is I’m going to wait till Black Friday and see if I can get this at a deal instead of buying at $129. I was in Minnesota last weekend and if it had dropped last I would’ve got it already but since I don’t have any trips I’ll roll the dice and wait till next Friday I’m hopes of getting a deal. Anyone else getting one as your main case or side piece?

It’s an absolute ripoff here. $200. My Newdery battery case is working just fine

Lol they were $199 here last year too, bit late to be complaining about that.

They didn't just come out now for the pro they had them last year for the XS and XS Max.

It’s still a rip off. $129 I would pay and consider a fair price. But $200 just for a phone case? Come on

As a reminder, respectful debate is perfectly acceptable on this forum but personal attacks are not. Let’s keep it civil, folks.

They're definitely handy. $129 isn't bad, but definitely keep an eye out for some deals.

I would definitely pay $129. Here in Australia they are $199 which is crazy lol

Currency exchange looks to be about the same, but I don't know what that is in real life!

I don’t even see this available at Best Buy so I doubt it gets a Black Friday deal smh

This is my case. It is working perfectly. I have my tech 21 case on at the moment but when I travel I’ll be using this one

All Apples case are not cheap. For a battery case i would be sticking with apple's case designed by them for their phone, at least you would be covered if it damages your battery/phone.

Agreed. I’m very particular about how I charge my iPhone

[Cladster]

I like the side button, push it opens camera even if screen off, also to take a photo, and if you hold it in takes video and stops when released. Its In a perfect spot for your finger when holding. You can open the camera when on a table too before you pick it up. Good features to have and makes it better value for the $$ imo.

If there was somewhere that was selling the new case via Afterpay I would get it but I just can’t afford $200 up front

[love4speechless]

I just discovered that Office Works DOES do Afterpay and they have all the Apple cases but don’t have the smart battery case. At least not yet anyway
