I'm going on a trip in 3 weeks and I'd like to use a battery case for my 6 while I'm gone. I did a quick look online and didn't see any.

Does anyone know when the cases (like morphie) will be out?
 
I would think battery cases or at least good ones are at least 1 month out. If you haven't already I would invest in a lipstick charger.

I always chuckle when I hear morphie, it's so funny how many people call Mophie that.

Anyways you should look into an external battery, it will provide power on the go without adding bulk to your phone. Only downside is you have carry it as an additional item.

I don't get the whole battery case. You get a nice phone then strap a heavy case on it to get some more battery life. Where are you going that you can't plug it in or use power pack?

I had for my 5 and it worked very well in certain situations but I didn't use it everyday. For instance whenever I was traveling it was nice to have. When I was working on site at a location still under construction it was vital so I could stay connected all day. I have used it when I go to concerts or other outdoor events.

Ah, that makes sense. I could see that being useful.

There are already several choices in China.
 
don't get a mophie external, they're absurdly overpriced. get an anker lipstick charger (3200 mah) or the 6400 mah for like 20-30 dollars from amazon.
