The new mophie Juice Pack specifically for the iPhone 16 series merges a power bank into a form-fitting protective case. Put Apple’s latest handsets in the case to greatly extend the battery life and add 6 feet of drop protection.

External magnets allow the case to attach to other MagSafe/Qi2 accessories, like car mounts.

mophie Juice Pack for iPhone 16 is case and battery in one

MagSafe allows an external battery to magnetically attach itself to an iPhone. And there are battery packs that take advantage of the system, like the mophie Snap+ Juice Pack Mini.

But mophie’s full-size Juice Pack follows a different strategy. It’s integrated into a case and thus stays connected to the iPhone semipermanently. It is intended for those who frequently drain the battery built into the iPhone — though given the lengthy battery life of Apple’s handsets that’s not easy.

Because it fits the handset so closely, there need to be designs made to wrap around each model. The company offers versions for iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. There’s not one for iPhone 16 Plus.

The capacity of the built-in battery varies between models. The variants for iPhone 16 and 16 Pro can hold 2,800 mAh. The Pro Max version holds 3,600 mAh.

A USB-C port on the bottom recharges the power bank. The MagSafe magnets on the exterior can only be used to attach accessories.

“Juice Pack for iPhone 16 offers a soft-touch finish using a premium acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) material, ensuring a comfortable grip that feels great in the hand,” promises mophie.
