It
is a busy weekend and being that it is 80 degrees out, I am not about
to spend the day indoors, luckily I can review from my phone and have
almost limitless charge today from the ibattz Mojo Vogue removable
battery charging case. We review a number of cases, more and more of
them offer charging capabilities, and now comes the Vogue. This case
comes with not one, but two slim removable batteries. Each of the
batteries come packing a 1700 mAh charge and have an led indicator for
charge status. This is more of a customization kit than it is a battery
case as the contents includes 2 batteries, 2 bumpers, 3 battery covers,
and one charging case in a variety of colors.
I
had no idea what all I was expecting with with the Vogue, but when I
opened the box there was a lot of plastic pieces scattered across my
desk and I didn’t know where to start. I must admit, for being a snap
together case, I was expecting it to feel really cheap, but it is
actually pretty solid, once the phone is all put together, its stays
that way and takes some force to take apart. The battery is easy to
remove and replace with a charged back up when you don’t have time or an
outlet to plug into. The case works great as it charges pretty quickly
and the you can just about get a full charge from the 1700 mAh battery.
The only issue in which I encountered with my Vogue case was that the
bumpers did not feel tight around my phone on the sides and is likely
just due to the thin material used. Lastly, since I have the white
iPhone, the white case came with white, pink, and purple battery covers,
pretty effeminate in comparison to the black, which comes with black,
blue, and red.
The
Mojo Vogue is a nice little battery case that has an option that most
case don’t have and that is the ability to remove and replace the
battery pack. Whether you wait until the battery goes belly or or keep
both on hand for when traveling, the battery packs are small enough to
keep on hand for when you think you will need them. While the option to
customize just about all aspects of the case, it would have been nice
for some more masculine colors to go with the white case and maybe even
an option for paying slightly more to get higher quality bumpers with
the case.
