Mophie adapts Juice Pack Air for Verizon iPhone 4

By


Mophie’s much-lauded external rechargeable battery case for the iPhone, the Juice Pack Air, will soon be available for the Verizon iPhone 4.

For this new model, Mophie has made the Juice Pack Air fit both the AT&T and Verizon iPhone 4, so if you soon find yourself picking one up at the store, it’s unlikely you’ll grab the wrong model and have to make an exchange. It can be pre-ordered now at Mophie’s homepage for $79.95 with an expected ship date of Monday, February 28. The AT&T version, which has been available for some time, has received positive marks for being extremely lightweight (weighing in at 2.5 ounces) and ultra-thin (adding 0.68 inches), and virtually doubling the battery life of a single charge. For a hands-on review, check out our video review of the Juice Pack Air for the iPhone 3G S.

Design highlights include:

  • Soft-touch, rubberized black exterior with brushed silver band, mirroring the aesthetic of the iPhone 4 itself (a red and glossy white version is expected in late March)
  • Provides traditional “case” protections against bumps, bruises & scrapes, etc.
  • 1500mAh rechargeable lithium polymer battery
  • Design that “acts as a virtual speaker box, redirecting sound from the bottom of the iPhone 4 to the front, resulting in a richer, fuller sound quality”
  • 4 LED integrated status indicator tells you exactly how much “juice” is left and how much time remains in the charging process
  • Standby-charging toggle switch to limit using the juice when you don’t need it
  • Access to the USB port to sync and charge your iPhone 4 while the case is on

Mophie has been making these cases for some time now, touting over 1 million Juice Packs sold to date, which have been produced for every form factor of iPhone and iPod Touch, and was dubbed the first ever Apple-certified “Works With iPhone” battery case. But of course, it’s not the only one.  Check out these alternatives:

How to turn off call forwarding on iPhone and Android

If you’re mysteriously missing calls on your iPhone or Android smartphone, it may be because call forwarding is activated on your line. In that case, all your incoming calls could be going somewhere else.

Call forwarding shouldn’t typically be active unless you’ve specifically turned it on, but another person or app may have done so without your knowledge. And since call forwarding is a carrier feature, it could still be enabled on a line you inherited from someone else, even if you’ve swapped their SIM card into your phone or transferred it to a new account.

How to transfer photos from an iPhone to a computer
The Apple iPhone 15 Plus's gallery app.

As the old saying goes, the best camera is the one you always have with you. If you're like most iPhone users, that means you've likely amassed a sizeable collection of photos on your device. However, while Apple's Photos app is a great way to manage and view your photo library, it's never a good idea to keep all your eggs in one basket. After all, suffering a lost or broken iPhone is painful enough without also losing all your precious digital memories in the process.

Even if you're backing up your iPhone to iCloud or your computer, it's a good idea to keep your photos backed up separately. After all, opening a folder or a photo management app is a much easier way to get at your photos than trying to extract them from an iCloud or iTunes/Finder backup, which requires either restoring them to another iPhone or relying on special software tools.
