Popular accessory maker Mophie has announced a handful of new power banks. Today’s release covers a wide range of devices with wireless charging and built-in cables serving as the most notable features. Head below for a look at each product.
A few months back, Mophie revealed its Charge Force lineup of wireless power supplies. We positively reviewed this release, particularly noting its iPhone compatibility. Included were desk, nightstand and car mounts but no option for charging on-the-go. Mophie has changed that with its new Charge Force Powerstation. A built-in 10000mAh battery will charge any Qi device as well as iPhone and Android devices utilizing Mophie’s wireless cases. There is also a USB port built-in that allows a second smartphone to be charged at the same time. The Charge Force Powerstation is available for pre-order today with a $99.99 price tag.
Also making an appearance today is the new USB-C Powerstation. The aluminum shell holds a 10000mAh battery that is capable of charging most Android devices over three times. The built-in USB-C port is bound to attract Galaxy users and the like. Unfortunately, it’s not quite strong enough to hang in there with your MacBook but it could provide a little juice in a pinch. It’s available for purchase today for $99.95.
Finally, rounding out today’s announcement is the 4th generation line of Powerstation batteries. The Plus model is available in three sizes, ranging from 4000 to 12000mAh, and features a built-in cable with microUSB and Lightning connectors. Mophie is offering these new power banks in Space Gray, Gold and Rose Gold colorways. Each model is currently available for order starting at $59.95. It’s regular Powerstation batteries also received a slight upgrade in design with the same color options. Prices start at $29.95 with capacities going from 3000mAh to 20000mAh.
Mophie is one of the most trusted smartphone accessory makers on the market today. Although its products are generally pricier than what you’d see in our daily roundup, it’s tough to beat the build quality here.
