Just ordered this online for a great price! Was wondering if anyone here has purchased it and could let me know how this case stacks up to the competition.
 
thanks! great review. I should be getting it in the mail this week hopefully it was a good buy. Was very close to getting a mophie but the non complete charging the iphone didn't sit well with me
 
Where can I buy one in the UK?

Also, does the Meridian need to be connected to the iPhone to charge it?

I tried to find it on amazon using the UK website and this was the best one sold:

Awesome case so far. More then doubles the life of my iPhone. Only thing that bothers me a bit is when its on and I am in an area of low cell coverage it doesn't pick up the signal as well as with regular cases. Tested this with my gf's iphone 4 on the same network and she picked up the signal with more bars.

Thanks, but pretty sure it isn't MFI certified that one...

Buy it directly from Lenmars Website.
You definitely want an MFi certified one too.
Found it:

Are we sure that's a genuine Lenmar?

If you write to them and tell them you want to buy one they will direct you to a reseller. When I was looking for one they emailed me with a Canadian amazon reseller and even gave me a 20% off code.

Lenmar Meridian UK

Hi

I have to admit when I read the reviews I thought I would buy 2 of them, one for myself and one for my wife's iphone.

However and just curious, how much are you guys paying for the Lenmar Meridian on the UK Amazon website, because all I see on their UK website is one for £145, which is way over priced, its only $65 (approx £40) on the Lenmar website and the last review I read said it was the cheapest of all the cases reviewed and the best, so does that mean that Amazon are ripping (us) the British public off.
