Believe it or not, Juice Pack Plus ($120) is actually the third all-but-identical iPhone 5 battery case in Mophie's extended rollout of the line. As the name suggests, it offers a larger capacity battery than either Juice Pack Helium or Juice Pack Air; this one is packing 2100mAh, and Mophie claims that it offers up to 120% battery life -- our prior tests suggest that it'll come in considerably lower than that. Physically, it looks a lot like the Air model, although it's slightly larger in every dimension, and the chamfered edges are now glossy rather than matte-finished. Once again, the Sleep/Wake button, volume button, and side switch are all covered as part of the impact-resistant bumper that surrounds the iPhone 5's perimeter. Juice Pack Plus comes in black, red, and white. Each includes a Micro-USB charging cable and headphone adapter.
