Many appreciate the case's attractive appearance and positive impact on the phone's look and feel. However, some customers note that the case's build quality could be improved and that it adds noticeable weight to the phone.

    My girlfriend didn't like how it fit on her phone. And it was heavier than other case chargers

    Easy to use when recharging your iPhone. Nice having a gauge to show battery level.

    I have found that the battery dies very quickly, even when it's not being used to charge my phone.

    This is so pretty and I really wanted it to work. Unfortunately, $45 lost. It barely worked the first time I used it - drained the battery faster rather than slower! Now i can't get it to charge. - Into the trash, along with my money.

    I love this case. It is smooth, stylish, and extends the battery life of my iPhone which is so helpful. The only issue I've had is that the case charger stopped working and I'm having a hard time finding a case charger replacement. Otherwise, it's great.

    Purchased as a gift for someone. She loved it...initially. Definitely wins as far as aesthetics go but it stopped providing charge after a couple of months. Rather disappointing. If you want a a case that truly charges, go for another brand.

    Battery pack does not last

    I've had 3 of these. Best Buy and Incipio were great about exchanging/returning, but it just doesn't work. Today my battery pack had 75% and my phone was 28%. I turned on the charger and when my phone reached 45%, the case died. This is just an example of how fast the pack dies. It's very cute but unfortunately, not worth it.

    I bought this as I am always on the go and cannot always carry a charger with me. Cute case but I am not impressed with how well it kept my phone charged. Dies quickly and isn't worth $50.00. Also is kind of bulky. Will be returning.
