Mophie Juice Packs for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus hands-on

2015-02-15
what's up everyone John render from TechnoBuffalo here one of the highlights of CES 2015 was Moe finally announcing their Juice Pack accessories for the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 plus we got two of them in front of us they are shipping now available in about five to seven days so we've got two out of the three total lineup we have the full lineup here for the iPhone 6 plus it's just the juice pack for the iPhone 6 you either get a juice pack plus or you get a juice pack ere difference is about 20% they're gonna give you a hundred percent battery life whereas the plus will give you one hundred and twenty percent let's go ahead and dig into both I'll take a quick look at the packaging here we've got the juice pack for the 6 plus go ahead and open it up and I should mention that these are available in three colors in white black or in gold all the movie products I literally like about them they come fully charged you gotta pick one up and run to the airport you will be good to go you also tell you the impact protection right there on the lid so in addition to being able to juice up your phone they're also case you wanna make sure it can protect them as well it's got a pass-through charging so it's got a micro USB ports you can also charge the case and charge the phone and then a standby switch of course if you want to turn it off let's go ahead and open this up this is going to cost you one 1995 as I mentioned is available in shipping now for Mophie go ahead and slide this right out so we're going to have inside of the box then of course we'll show you what it looks like on a phone so not a on the tiny side but the iPhone 6 plus is not on the tiny side either go ahead and pull this out there we go this feels gigantic but we'll see how it looks on the phone and of course we'll do a pocket test as well an extension cable for 3.5 millimeter headset jack because it's way you recessed in there then you've got a micro USB charging sync cable and some information so let's push all that off to the side let's take a look at the case and of course what it's going to look like with an iPhone 6 plus this is going to give you as I mentioned an extra 60 percent additional battery which can translate to 14 points two additional hours of talktime a little over seven hours of web browsing 8.4 hours of video playback up to 48 Edition hours of music playback so plenty of time for that goes ahead and push all the way in I've got a bit of a chin down below and to speaker grilles put the top back on on the bottom of it it's a little bit raised that's where the protection comes in and it's bit of a soft touch plastic there to keep your phone nice and safe and that should just snap right in easy access to all of your buttons here you've got your volume up and down of course your profile switch you can very easily access as well on the right hand side there's your power and lock button so right now I've got it turned off you can see it's in the red you've got LED indicators let you know how much power you've got in it so it's about 75 percent charged that's where your micro USB port is going to plug in of course if you want to get to through the five millimeter headset jack and a really long cord or you can use the extender cable that Mufi is including let's go ahead and turn this on and see if it charges up my phone and it is indeed charging my phone letting me know that I'm getting power to it so not tiny but you'd expect a case that has a battery power on it for a large phone to be about this size let's go and see it looks like in the pocket so let's drop the six-plus into my pocket I'm just wearing normal dude jeans can see that it definitely makes an outline it's not unwieldy you could certainly walk around and you can dance if you're so inclined but certainly you will be aware that you've got a large phone and then a case on it in your pocket the white glossy well looking pretty nice is extremely slippery so I'll bear that in mind we're trying to pick which colours right for you the black is more soft touch and I'm not sure what the goal there are two options for the iPhone 6 I mentioned we've got the juice pack plus the plus meeting or get some extra battery life out of it so you get up to 17 hours of additional talktime here which is pretty solid so we can slide this out there we go 12 hours of additional web browsing 13 hours of video playback or for music and extra 60 so here is the black version it's soft touch black and pull this out from design standpoint relatively similar you've got cushioning on the side to make sure your phone is going to be very well protected they're on both sides and then of course you've got that same soft touch back design standpoint looks almost identical to what we just saw with the iPhone 6 plus so I'm not going to walk you through all the buttons and that's kind of thing let's go ahead and put the phone right in goes in the same way top pulls right out go ahead and bring in the iPhone 6 and should turn it on slides right in you can see that same sort of raised area right there to give you an impact protection go and slide that down and of course you've got your battery right here and then you've got that raised air area that we just saw let's go ahead and push the LED light same thing about same five percent charge flip that over and this should start to power on for us and there it is let me know my iPhone 6 is now getting juiced up this feels much smaller this is the Plus version I would imagine that the juice pack air is certainly going to be even thinner they do give up 20% of the extra battery for me if I'm putting a battery case on my phone rather have as much battery as I can but Mufi offers options in case you disagree with me so here are your two choices iPhone 6 plus iPhone 6 for me movie is really the best between style performance and impact protection which is obviously really important with a phone movies done a really nice job with their sort of internal software to make sure not too much power is going through the battery I never go into overheating issues or overcharging your battery and did just do a really nice job that's really not the only option out there but at least for me when I pick up a case usually Mufi is the way that I will go guys thank you for watching give thumbs up for extra juice
