Color Name:Yellow
THREE times now, the micro USB connector used to charge the Mophie simply broke off from the device. The first two times, Mophie replaced the unit under warranty - the third time they said no.
That being the case, I disassembled the unit to see if I could identify the problem and it was immediate: The charging connector is held fast to the circuit board with glue! Two drops of hard, red glue. In other words, this connector was designed to fail.
The product works well when it works, but the product life is MUCH shorter than it could be simply because the factory tried to shave 8 entire cents from their cost.

Color Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
Yes, I name this case the absolute BEST for the iphone4 !
Why? Well, first of all, it offers great drop-protection on 3 sides. The screen isn't protected but that's ok. In my opinion, the iphone4's marvelous screen should never be covered-up. Owners must simply over-compensate by handling their phones more carefully. My previous case was a Otterbox and it covered every centimeter of the iphone4 but also covered it's beauty to the point where I would remove it from that case for cleaning and was always surprised at how light and thin the phone is.
The front camera, rear camera, and it's flash are not covered. The power and volume buttons are covered but the mute switch and headphone jack aren't and I prefer it that way; since I use headphones and mute switch daily. And of course the bottom of the phone is covered completely but there are openings on the front side for the microphone and speaker. The phone and case charge at the same time with the included mini-USB cord.
Finally we get to the battery. I always wait until the phone's battery completely runs out before I start charging it via the battery case so that I can see how much charge the case provides. Well, the first couple of times it charged my phone from 0 to 100% but on the 3rd charge it only went up to 97% and that dropped to 95% on the 4th recharge. If it can charge me up to 80% in its first year of use, I will consider it money well spent.
The case consists of two parts which slide together around the phone and its made of sturdy plastic which is easy to grip but at the same time easy to pull out of your jacket pocket. (unlike the otterbox which was a lint magnet)
Oh, and there is a small non-protruding button on the bottom of the case which you can push to see approx. how much power is left, via 4 LED lights.
Hope I didn't miss anything.
Thank you.
***UPDATE 5/3/2011***
I must add that the re-charge has improved. Just yesterday I did a recharge from 0% and the Mophie charged me back up to 100% in an hour and 15 minutes. I now believe that in order to get the full charge, this mophie case should be charged until all 4 LEDs light up?(steady). Before I used to charge until 3 were lit and the fourth was blinking.

Color Name:Cyan|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I use my iPhone more for photography, video (both taking video and playback), and web surfing than for talking, but I'm always running out of battery, especially when I go on vacations and day trips when I'm taking a ton of photos or trying to keep my daughter. I usually have to start shutting things down (internet, screen brightness, etc.) halfway through the day to maintain any battery.
I started looking for some sort of external battery or solar charger for my phone, but couldn't really find anything. And then the Mophie Juice Pack came along and it's PERFECT. It's an EXTREMELY lightweight case that snaps right on to the iPhone, with appropriate cut-outs for the cameras and switches. It does add a bit of thickness to the phone, but really nothing like I was expecting- it still slides easily into pockets and can be toted without any thought at all, and fits comfortably in my hand.
You charge up the Mophie case with the included power cord (plugs directly into USB port in your computer or the USB port on your iPhone cord). You can also charge your iPhone *in* the Mophie- if you plug the case in while the iPhone is inside, the Mophie will charge both.
When in use, the Mophie will use its own power first, and then when drained, it will switch to the battery in the iPhone. That way you can snap the case off and just use your iPhone on its own charge. There is a switch on the case to have put the Mophie in "standby" and use the iPhone battery first.
Overall, I'm THRILLED with this product. It's lightweight, easy to use, and for heavy iPhone users, you can just snap the case on and use your iPhone like normal. HIGHLY recommended.

great case, until it stopped working..
This case would be an excellent case if they improved the mini USB port. I've read other reviews on the USB failing. I owned it for about two weeks and it just stopped charging. Read more
