I picked mine up yesterday and I don't care what they say about the amp rating, I can now go 2 days easy. Took off the charger at 7:00 am and my kids streamed an entire 2 hour movie on YouTube with hotspot on powering my other kids iPad mini hotspot.

The hump case would be interesting for the iPads and iWatches also. ;)

Even for the Macbooks series...

Not to bash but you make it sound like Apple invented battery cases overnight. The iPhone has the most battery cases out of any phone on the market for 4 to 5 years straight. A week ago this case never existed. How did you guys cope?
 
Do yourself a favour... Just go grab some third party battery case and done with it. I cannot believe this is Apple product. It is way overpriced for the battery capacity and it is fugly. The worst part is the case will constantly charge your iPhone regardless, you cannot turn it off.

For the price, you will be better served with other battery case. Just because Apple made a battery case, doesn't mean it is the best
It is perhaps the wrost battery case one can every make.

Waiting for the new 3rd party line of protective cases for the Apple hump. It's an Apple product, Somebody will build a protective case for it. And they'll probably smooth out the hump by adding some functionality like a small pocket, better speakers, or even a zoom lense for the recessed camera.

Lots of room there, you'd think Apple could have thought of something to do with that space.

I concur. My hump case showed up on Friday and it has been going great over the whole weekend. When out and about, I usually had a small recharging battery for my iPhone 6S that would have it last into the evening. Now, it runs fine an entire day.

Like to see the battery level of the case outside of the "Today" settings as the iPhone is always at 100% while the power is drained from the case and then the iPhone. The tactile feel is fine and the extra weight and thickness is not a burden. Keep wondering what demographic they are selling into that wants a thinner and thinner iPhone.

Technically, there is a lot in this case that is not in third party cases. Wonder if it is using Lightning port functions not documented in the elite MFi program as there is no third party case with a Lightning connector on both the inside and outside of the case.
 
I want one for my plus, yea the battery is great but imagine almost double that . I hope it's in the works I can't understand why they would not just make it for both models .

It's cases all the way down.
 
I wonder if Apple even cares what the customer wants , I would think by now we would of heard something about a plus smart battery case.

Apple likely doesn't see a need for one for the Plus since it already has a fairly large and longer lasting battery.
 
I don't want one for my 6s Plus. I just got it, but the battery life seems great for my usage. If I did want a battery case, I'm sure I could find a third party one that wasn't as ugly as Apple's though. ;)
 
I get more than 2 full days of medium usage on my 6S plus during the week and never less than a full day even on super high usage weekend days. My 6S Plus is my absolute favorite phone and I've been using iPhones back to the 3G. I love the big screen real estate in still such a slim form. There is no way I want to add additional bulk to my phone when I surely don't need it.
