One persistent problem that we’ve kind of gotten used to is the battery issue with smartphones. In the case of iPhones, the problem is quite grave. A typical usage doesn’t get me through a single day without recharging the iPhone. The iPhone 5, with all the larger display and features, does come with a larger battery but not enough to compensate for the usage.
That is perhaps why battery cases and juice packs are enormously popular. We decided to take a look at what’s on offer for iPhone 5 users in the world of battery cases. These are not juice packs like the ones provided by Mophie. The battery cases serve as a case but that’s not their main function: they add life to your iPhone 5.
Take a Look at Top 5 Battery Cases for iPhone 5:
1. uNu ECOPAK
Capacity: 2500mAh
Price: $79.95
Features:

The uNu Ecopak focuses on being the perfect eco-friendly case and battery for your iPhone 5. A neat design and an equally neat battery pack that offers more than twice as much talk-time, video, 3G and music than the iPhone 5 does is the forte. If you’re looking at a powerful battery case, that also features an extra USB port for power-sharing, this is it.

Lenman iPhone 5 battery case is one of the slightly overpriced items on this list. It’s a pretty minimalist albeit very safe iPhone 5 battery case.

5. Brando Power Jacket for iPhone 5
Capacity: 2000mAh
Price: $36.00
Features:
- Kick-stand
- Soft interiors
Brando Power Jacket is a simple, most cost-effective and elegant case that is gaining popularity. The case is slightly bulky when compared to the minimalist PowerSlider from i-Balson. However, a soft interior, beautiful design that leaves the buttons on the top half of the iPhone free, along with the effective pricing makes the case desirable.
