I had the Apple Battery Case for my 7 and loved it.

Is there a aftermarket one for the X available that can still do wireless charging while keeping the apple lighting plug at the bottom just like Apple's Battery Cases?

Does anyone know why Apple isn't offering its own Battery Case for the X?

I was really hoping they were going to come with a case for the X where it could still be wirelessly charged, but it doesn't seem like it's coming.

May be they will with their wireless charger next year?
 
I guess technically if Mophie could release a battery case with wireless charging then it doesn't matter if it has USB-C or lightning cord to charge it.

I always prefer to buy Apple cords/chargers/cases... they just work.
 
This is something I am looking forward to also from either Mophie or Apple

I travel a lot and use my battery charging cases a lot

Normally with Mophie they send out Step videos from the drawings to the final product but so far nothing! Apple nothing either but I’m hoping they release soon
 
So far pretty much cheep unknown battery cases on the market, Zerolemon is the only one I have heard of. Mophie is nice, but they overcharge and the last one I used still has microUSB, have them moved to Lightning or at least USB-C for the charging plug?

I wouldn't mind the waterproof charging case from mophie on the X.
