Pros: Powers phone, slim design, changeable battery modules, slim in the hand, on/off switch.
Cons: Would have liked to see the speaker and mic holes open instead of perforated.
Overall: A nice case and battery combination that will double the amount of time you can utilize your iPhone. With quality craftsmanship you won’t need to buy a separate case and external battery. For $79.99 it is right in line with other case styled batteries, but the difference here is that the battery modules are changeable so if you need even more power just pick up another module for $24.95. This case is so well thought out it gets my Editor’s Choice Award.

Pros: Great protection, not too bulky for having a built in battery, good texture
Cons: Battery turns on and off from time to time while charging
Overall: Going to be away from a power source and don’t want to lose your greatest communication tool? Check out the Case-Mate Fuel Series for the iPhone 4. Great alternative to charging your phone without a power outlet. Keeps the look of the iPhone 4 design, won’t bubble the screen protector and still protects against damage from dropping your phone.

Pros: Provides a quick charge, small & easily pocketable, micro SD card reader, charges most Bluetooth devices
Cons: Only has micro USB support, can’t charge Apple 30 pin products.
Overall: The Technocel Battery Boost is an affordable backup battery and micro SD card reader and will charge pretty much any device with a micro USB connection. Unfortunetly that eliminates a lot of devices out there including Apple devices which use the standard 30 pin connector. For the price of $29.99 you can hardly go wrong if this will be compatible with your device. You can pick one up directly from Technocel by clicking here to be directed to their website.

Pros: Battery pack and plug built right in, powers a plethora of devices, compact, charges iPhone about 1 1/2 times, affordable, portable and home charger in one.
Cons: A lot of adapters to keep track of, LED lights seem a bit off in relation to how much power is left.
Overall: The Powerpack by Technocel is a solid performer and I have been using it quite a bit even after my testing period. The biggest plus to me on this is that I can use this as a home charger of as a portable backup battery all for a palatable $49.95. The power and simplicity of the Powerpack by Technocel makes it a solid performer that I feel extremely comfortable recommending.

Pros: Collapsible design, Works for iPhone and iPod touch
Cons: LEDs too bright and can be distracting in dark rooms
Overall: A great backup battery pack, I really like the option to charge it as a cradle, as well as an extension off the end of the phone, I just wish the LEDs to signify fully charged were not quite as powerful.

Pros: Very compact, holds device either vertically or horizontally, free alarm clock app, will fully charge a nearly dead iPhone, affordable.
Cons: iPhone won’t fit if its in a case, would have liked to see the iPod touch spacer designed so it doesn’t constantly come out of place when dismounting touch.
Overall: The Dexim P-flip sports a 2000 mAh battery that will keep your iPhone or iPod touch charged for the day. With a super compact design, the ability to stand your device in both portrait and landscape mode gives this battery pack a very unique quality. The Dexim P-Flip can be purchased from a number of online and brick and mortar retailers with a price averaging roughly $50. Make sure you do your research to get the best price out there.

Pros: The bundle comes with tons of goodies, the cases are great, and the P-Flip itself is an amazing device! The biggest highlight of the P-Flip is its versatility, as its no ordinary battery back up but also converts into a dock, and media stand.
Cons: None.
Overall: I found this entire pack a diamond! When fully charged can get you up to 8 hrs of talk time, 15 hrs of video & gaming, & 60 hours of music. In my opinion every iPhone user should have a battery back up, and if your are going to have one best make it the Dexim P-Filp. I highly recommend it!
