Cingular Go Phone: Mophie Juice Pack Case and Rechargeable Battery for iPhone 1G (Black) Review

Pros:

Works as advertised.Greatly increases battery life.

Some of the early previews complained about the lack of polish on the case - generally it had an inconsistent build quality.The production version is slick and smooth - very appealing to view and the iPhone fits very snugly within the case.It actually makes it more comfortable to use the phone on an extended basis.

There's a very handy LED battery level indicator on the rear of the unit.

Cons:

Adds considerable weight and thickness to the iPhone, but hey, what extended battery doesn't?

Biggest con for some: Despite it having what appears to be a passthough sync port on the bottom, it won't actually sync with the PC.The iPhone needs to be removed from the case and plugged directly to the PC to sync up.Not a con for me since I sync maybe once a month.There might be an issue with the longevity of the case with the somewhat frequent removing of the phone - this needs testing.

Bottom line:

An attractive and very practical alternative to the dongle type battery extenders on the market.Fits the iPhone very snugly.Price should be reduced slightly, but at the moment, it has the market to itself as a take-it-with-you 'pocketable' battery extender.
