Anker Ultra Slim – the case that makes your iPhone usable again

The short of it

Your iPhone’s battery sucks. We hear you.

Anker’s ultra-slim charging case is the best in the business. Your iPhone just became usable again.

Why do I care?

Let’s face it – most people don’t get through the day without charging.

This case gives you another full charge (and then some) without making your pocket bulge so much your friends think you’re really happy to see them.

So how does it work?

There’s a large battery built inside the case that only adds half a centimetre more thickness to your phone.

You’ll need to charge it using a micro USB cable, which charges both your iPhone and the case at the same time.

Added bonus – you won’t need to use your Apple cable ever again and micro USB is supported by almost every other device maker on the planet.

Will it really make my iPhone last longer?

Hell yes.

In our tests we got 2 days of solid use.

What’s the downside?

You won’t be able to plug your headphones in without an annoying adaptor (included in the package).

With a bit of a push, Apple’s headphones will squeeze in. Otherwise there’s always Bluetooth headphones.

So – how much is this going to cost me?

Here’s the best news. Anker’s case is not only the best looking on the market, at £29 it’s also the best value.

Our take

It’s not big, but it is clever. This is a small price to pay for the end of battery anxiety.

Anker’s Ultra Slim Battery Case – we think it’s money well spent.
