Battery pack case? ( iPhone 4 )

[romeo.xk]

What is your opinion on this? I think that if they are any good, I might just go for one of this, I figure if I'm gonna get a case, I might as well get one that has a function...

Cool, anyone has had any experiences with this before? are they a good idea? will they end up messing up the battery on the phone it self some how?

Battery pack cases won't mess up your phone's battery more than normal usage (if you're going through two charges a day, that's from your using your iPhone). Something like 300 charge cycles brings the iPhone's battery capacity down to 80%, but that's with or without a case like this. The biggest problems with them are thickness, you don't get full protection usually, and reception can suffer since there's a battery in front of the antennas.

antennas on iphone 4 is on the side, so it probably wouldn't suffer that badly anymore
