Mophie, a well-established creator of battery cases and now part of a larger group including Zagg, Braven, iFrogz, and InvisibleShield, has released an innovative product. The Juice Pack Connect introduces a modular design to portable power, featuring a battery pack that can be easily attached and detached.

Available for $80, this system includes a 5,400mAh battery – providing a substantial amount of extra power – and a ring stand for convenient phone propping. While Mophie might expand the range with further options in the future, the primary benefit currently lies in the ability to remove the battery when it’s not required, allowing continued use of the case itself.

The system represents a significant investment, consistent with Mophie’s pricing structure. It’s important to note that this is not a MagSafe compatible accessory. Instead, the module connects to your phone case – which must be sufficiently slim to allow for charging – using an adhesive attachment. This approach broadens compatibility to a wider variety of devices, encompassing numerous iPhone models, as well as wireless charging-enabled phones like Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel handsets.
