Mophie Juice Pack gives iPhone 17 Pro or Air a big battery boost

The Mophie Juice Pack wraps your iPhone in a protective case that’s also a battery that adds hours of use. On Monday, it launched versions specifically for iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max or iPhone Air.

Mophie did more than make the battery cases closely fit Apple’s latest. The updated versions deliver longer battery life, stronger protection, better ergonomics and more.

Mophie Juice Pack for iPhone 17: Battery and case in one

Mophie Juice Pack adds hours of extra life to your phone without the hassle of cables, external packs or juggling accessories while you’re on the move. Because the power bank is built right into the case, you get charging that’s always available throughout the day.

Wrap-around cases must be form-fitted to the handset, and that’s what Mophie’s new models do. There are variants for the iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Note that there is not one for the base model iPhone 17.

The built-in power bank adds up to 60% to the battery life of the handset, depending on the model. That’s especially important for the iPhone Air.

In addition, the battery case completely surrounds the handset to help shield it from everyday drops and bumps. Raised edges help guard against scratched or cracked screens. There’s an integrated lanyard loop port, too.

The Juice Pack takes up the handset’s USB-C port, but offers its own. With the newest models, this includes passthrough USB-C audio.

“Mophie’s mission has always been to give users freedom from the wall outlet,” said Ekshita Kumar, vice president of strategy and growth for Mophie. “With the iPhone 17 Juice Pack lineup, we’re pushing that even further — delivering more power, smarter design, and better protection, all in a more sustainable product.”

Price and availability

Mophie Juice Pack variants for iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro Max launched Monday, November 10. It costs $99.95, no matter the variant.

Those with an iPhone 16 should not feel left out. There are also Juice Pack versions for Apple’s 2024 handsets, too.
