iPhone Smart Battery Case

Travel days are the hardest days on my iPhone. Whether it's a work trip or personal trip, my iPhone gets a lot of usage. Travel results in heavy GPS, Maps, Directions, and Photography. In the past I have needed to carry an extra battery, cable and remember to charge it along with my phone.

A few months ago, I purchased the Apple iPhone 11 Pro Smart Battery Case. It's earned a spot as a permanent travel companion for a few reasons. The first is that it has a dedicated camera button - something I have wished for on an iPhone forever! You can take a photo by simply pressing and holding the button for a second and then pressing again to take a picture. With the iPhone, you can take a picture. However, the volume button requires that you have to turn on the phone and press the camera button.

In addition to the camera button, the Smart Battery case carries about 50% full charge of the iPhone 11 Pro. It also charges using a wireless charger, which simplifies how you charge the phone overnight. It has a lightning connector, which will also charge using a USB-PD charger (fast charging) and works with lighting accessories.

The iPhone Smart Battery Case is a fantastic addition to your iPhone. It's easy to use in a pinch or leave on your phone all day. It does add some bulk, but with the non Max sized phone - it has not been much of a burden.
