The iKit NuCharge iPhone 5 Battery Case Review

It’s harder and harder to select the best iPhone 5 battery case since accessory makers are releasing cases one more appealing than the other. It seems that iPhone 5 accessory makers have finally acknowledged users’ interest in products that are actually delivering added features for the hefty price. The iKit NuCharge iPhone 5 battery case is the latest power and protective accessory to join the market and it brings features that are quite appealing for the $59 price tag.

Every maker is going to market its iPhone 5 battery case as the best one ever made. There’s just no other way around that, and the tech specs and reviews for the iKit NuCharge case do place this product top of the list, right next to Mophie’s Juice Pak Helium and the iBattz Mojo Hi5 case for iPhone 5.

The iKit NuCharge features an interchangeable battery pack and case with smart covers in different colors and textures. The best looking ones are by far the Brushed Leather Smart Covers. Now, in terms of width and overall design, the iKit NuCharge isn’t your common iPhone 5 battery case. First of all it is MFI certified (Made for iPhone) and for good reason: the standard case is slim an beautifully designed, whereas the battery pack is attached to the back and charges your iPhone 5 via a discreet built-in cable that does not bother the user when using other ports. Also it features a kickstand on the back that will make photography and video playback much, much easier.

The iKit NuCharge iPhone 5 battery case is made from hard plastic and although it doesn’t cover the top and bottom edges of your device or the glass front, it still remains a top notch choice. The battery pack comes on the back and it can double the life of your iPhone 5. The 1900mAh Li-polymer battery adds 8 hours of web browsing and talk time, 10 hours of video playback and40 of audio.

The best feature of this iPhone 5 battery case is definitely its slimness. You can easily slip in the device with the battery pack on in your pockets and it won’t look weird at all. The case is 10.9mm (T) by 61mm (W) by 125.6 mm (L) whereas with the battery pack on it adds to 16.7mm(T). By the way, according to the producer, the battery was designed so it won’t heat up in your pockets or hands.

The White NuCharge with Silver Aluminum Cover and Clear Snap Case sells for $59. You can get the basic and add four covers of your choice for $79.
