Mophie, a brand known for its mobile power accessories, has announced the return of the fan-favorite Juice Pack case for the iPhone at CES 2024. Yes, the Juice Pack is back.
Mophie was the first officially Apple-certified battery case maker and has been around since the very first iPhone. Mophie was acquired by Zagg in 2016. It’s gone through a few variations over time, with the Juice Pack Air and Juice Pack Access in 2019, and then it disappeared for a while. It didn’t help that Apple had its own Battery Case for a while that’s now discontinued, but Mophie is making a comeback with the Juice Pack.
The new version of the Juice Pack will be available for most of the iPhone 15 lineup, including the standard iPhone 15, the iPhone 15 Pro, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Oddly enough, the iPhone 15 Plus is omitted from the Juice Pack lineup.

Considering how my iPhone 15 Pro can burn through the battery pretty quickly depending on what I’m doing, I’m eager to check out the new Mophie Juice Pack.
The new Mophie Juice Pack will cost $100 and be available only in black. You can preorder it in late February directly on Mophie’s website, and each Juice Pack will have a two-year manufacturer’s warranty.
