Apple Smart Battery Case for iPhone 6 and 6s extends your battery life, looks iffy

08 December, 2015
It's Apple's first official battery case for its gadgets, though the design is not up to Apple's usual standards.

            Such beautifully ugly design. I wish I could puke!

                The article did said it's from a third party , right? Which means this is not apple's product.. It's from a THIRD PARTY. If you know what that means. :D

                  I only thing I hate about Apple is iOS and OS X.
                  The designs of all their products are gorgeous.
                  Their OS is garbage.

                    Leaving aside the look factor I must say that the case is ergonomically designed for use in both orientations..should not feel thick in use either..good job

                      Such a good looking case; will NEVER buy one...
                      Seriously, what where designers thinking? an actual Macintosh from 1980's?
                      Rather run out of battery then put this case on ;-)

                        ...there are many of these battery cases that bring both, better. More capacity, more protection, with better looks.

                            Apple's notorious for over charging for their products on the false premise of "overall experience and cohesion" (I have one in the family so your argument is moot). Yet this hideous abomination being priced at $100 is a New "Low" by even Apple's standards.

                            Milk Away...

                              I'll ignore the whole iPhone and Android stuff, I'll just comment on one thing:
                              KOSS PortaPro headset - looks like arse, produces awesome quality, cheap as hell.
                              Functionality should always be on top of looks.
