The best iPhone 12 Pro battery cases

The iPhone 12 Pro boasts a battery life that we found will get most people through the majority of their day; however, if you’re a heavy multimedia user or strongly relying on 5G connectivity to power your mobile experience, you might want to consider adding on a battery case. Apple has yet to release an official battery case for the iPhone 12 Pro, so we’ve assembled some of our favorites from third parties. Here are the best iPhone 12 Pro (and iPhone 12) battery cases to consider.

One of the largest-capacity options on our list, this battery case from Snsou offers a 7,000mAh capacity, promising to extend your device’s life by 180%. Designed with a rubberized bezel, the case aims to protect your screen from scratches and bumps. Cut-outs are included so that you can easily plug in Lightning cables and headphones without needing to remove the case from your iPhone. A set of LED indicators on the rear of the case informs you of the internal battery’s current charge capacity, and a button allows you to switch charging on and off. As with most battery cases, this unit is not compatible with wireless charging systems.

The Newdery Battery Case for iPhone 12 and 12 Pro offers a 4,800mAh battery that aims to increase your iPhone’s run time by more than 100%. The case is made from TPU and PU materials, adding a bit of protection to your device. What we like most about the Newdery case is that, unlike most other battery cases, it supports Qi wireless charging. Simply drop the case down on a wireless charger, and your case will begin refueling. For keeping an eye on battery life, the case does include a set of LED indicators on the rear and a button to control the charging function.

If you’re looking for a more aggressive iPhone case, this option from Zerolemon might be the perfect fit. Loaded with a 5,000mAh battery, the case can extend your iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro battery life by up to 120%. The design is a bit bulky, but it uses raised AirCushion corners to help absorb shock if your iPhone is dropped. The battery case also manages to fit in a Qi wireless charger, so you can top off your device by dropping it on a wireless charging pad. It’s designed so Lightning cables fit without issue, users can enjoy their iPhone 12 Pro without needing to remove the protective case.

Imagine paying a minimum of $999 for a new iPhone 14 Pro in 2022, only to discover that it can’t run the full iOS 18 experience in less than two years. It might sound dystopian, especially for a product known for its long shelf life that's largely the result of an industry-leading software update policy at Apple.

Yet, it seems that nightmarish surprise will be here in just over a week. Bloomberg recently reported on some crucial AI-driven features coming to iOS 18, with Siri being one of the main recipients of all that innovation. But iPhone users might have to pay a pretty price for it all.

It seems the long-overdue Siri overhaul will finally arrive at WWDC in just over a week from now, and the digital assistant will embrace AI trickery in all its forms. According to Bloomberg, Apple’s planned upgrades for Siri will deeply integrate with on-device functions at the OS level and with the installed apps, too.

“The new system will allow Siri to take command of all the features within apps for the first time,” the report says. The most notable capability is that Siri will only require voice prompts to interact with apps, thanks to a major change in the AI architecture powering it and putting large language models in command, just the way Gemini or ChatGPT draw their own skills from such models.
