09 December, 2015

This case can be used on the 6 too which everyone knows has horrible battery life. And 1715 mAh in the 6S isn't much to begin with especially when it's lower than the previous model it's based on. And you're talking about the + version, man get your facts straight iFan lol

                      IMO LG should just fix their battery issues first before diving in this bashing bandwagon. What is the use of a "capable and thin" phone if it won't even last a day with half of the brightness turned on.

                              Apple Smart Battefy Case is the most ridiculous thing Apple ever designed. For a design centric company, they failed greatly. If you couldn't design it, my advice is just simply, don't. Trying to beat Mophie battery case patent by designing something so ugly. Of course blind Apple fans will buy anything with Apple logo on it. I rather go with Droid Turbo.

                                  It also has a much more dense screen... an extra screen... and can do real multitasking.

                                    It's so bad, but good that looking at this case make me smile again. It's just hilarious.
