Don’t forget the Ukulele music.

Is that a thing?

Is that a thing?

Apparently so.

Library music, usually titled ‘happy summer’ or something similar.

You’re obviously not the target demographic for this product, and the ‘ugly’ comment is overly exhausted, no one cares that’s it’s ugly, they purchase a battery extender for the utility to provide the additional battery life necessary.

it's also a case,and Apple cases are expensive and meant to be stylish,this one is far from that.

You demand that batteries be pretty?

this is a case.with back up battery inside.
and Apple cases are supposed to be stylish..maybe you totally don't care about design and aesthetics..

design is how it works, not how it looks.

Does it scratch the stainless steel band???!

It does not. All very soft, just like Apple's other silicon cases.

lol wrong.

lol wrong.

Steve Jobs agrees with me and disagrees with you.

“Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like. People think it’s this veneer – that the designers are handed this box and told, “Make it look good!” That’s not what we think design is. It’s not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” - Steve Jobs

Thanks for this! Just purchased one for my aging 11 Pro that could need a bit more battery. Cheaper than replacing the battery - plus I get a new case to replace my aging case as well.
