After giving up on creating the AirPower charger, which could have charged several iPhones at once, the Apple Store is now offering a pair of multi-device chargers developed by Mophie.
The latest Juice Pack Air from Mophie proves iPhone battery cases don’t have to be bulky. This one is relatively slender, while still extending the time between recharges a considerable amount. There’s even room for a Lightning port as well as wireless charging.
Find out what it’s like to use this accessory designed for the 2018 iPhone models in our hands-on review.
Apple likes Mophie’s new chargers and cables so much that it added all of them to its online store, and many retail locations too.
Included on the collection are a wireless charging pad, two car chargers and an array of durable Lightning and USB-C cables.
Mophie is out with a fresh variation on its battery cases for the iPhone XR and XS series. Unlike an earlier option from this company, the Juice Pack Air and the iPhone inside it share a single Lightning port for recharging. Wireless charging is available, too.
In an unusual move, this accessory is an Amazon exclusive in the run up to Prime Day.
Two companies just unveiled portable batteries that include built-in wireless chargers.
The Mophie Powerstation Hub also includes built-in foldable AC power prongs. The Kenu BingeBank, on the other hand, sports a kickstand so it props up your iPhone while charging.
Mophie unleashed a new lineup of portable battery cases today that include a versatile USB-C port that can be used for both input and output. The biggest powerstation packs a whopping 20,000 mAh of over with a price tag that won’t hurt your bank account.
Owners of late-model iPhones (starting with iPhone 8) can stash all their old Lightning cables in a desk drawer and start charging their phone more easily with a wireless charger. Instead of sticking a wire into your phone and attaching it to a power adapter, you just place the phone on a small charger pad — or on a stand-up charging pad — and you’re good to go.
Now that Apple officially killed off its AirPower charging mat, it’s time to take the plunge and get yourself a third-party wireless charger. And if you’ve got one of those newfangled AirPods wireless charging cases, a charging pad is even more essential to your setup.
Here are our recommendations for best wireless chargers.

The wait is over for the Mophie Juice Pack Access. This series of cases extends the battery life of the 2018 iPhone models while still allowing the Lightning port to be used. And the iPhone can be wirelessly charged while in this battery case.
