I haven’t seen anyone here mention this problem. I have owned two of these over the past two months and both of them have had the port to the micro-USB cable come loose. I love the product but I can’t keep replacing it every month! Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me???

I bought the juice pack air and noticed a considerable drop in celllular signal in Edge areas- even to a point of no reception. Have packed it away in my “Ridiculously hyped and priced iPhone accessories that Suck ” box.
The box is getting quite full.

I live in Chicago and get no reception in my apartment when I have my iphone 3Gs plugged in to the juice pack but instantly get 4 bars when i unplug it. I will be returning it. I wish they would respond as to why this happens

Hi Apple Juice,

The problem is that Apple has not made the iPhone and iPod with batteries that are easy to get to and exchange as is the case with most portable devices. In addition, if you change the battery, that voids the Apple guarantee on the device because it is deep inside. If the design were more conventional in that regard, your suggestion would have been the obvious solution, and mophie would never have had this product niche to start with.

The results you were able to obtain are very impressive, but as I always say, seeing is believing, moreover given the current costs of the device, wouldn’t it be more cost effective to just simply purchase more batteries, so when you’re on the road, you can do a quick swap when the other one is depleted?

@pendolino – well, I guess we’ve already seen the response from mophie – “no answer” except they don’t write it! Too bad, too.

i have a friend who had a similar issue even though i had recommended it to him and i guess the difference is that i am usually in areas with very good signal strength so i dont really feel any degradation.

i’ve seen this issue crop up enough, though, to wonder what mophie’s response to it will be.

How can you break the top? Both the top and bottom fit perfectly… Not too tight. This thing is great.

No matter where I am I expect the best possible signal strength. The Mophies and InCase are unacceptable for me.
