Hello all,
Thought I would drop a review of this battery case I just got over turkey day shopping .

This case about doubles the thickness of the phone and makes it heavy , but not terrible and you can get used it really quick.

To actually call this a battery case is a bit misleading in my opinion . Yes it is a case with a battery in it , but really its just a case with a quick charge battery back in it. What will happen is when your battery is low you hit the little button on the side and it starts charging the phone and will stop at 100% and turn back off. Not a huge problem, I personally was looking for something that drew automatically but this is more than fine . In fact I actually really like this case. I had had my battery down to 64% turned the case on and it was fully charged in 40min maybe a little less. the phone and case does not get hot while charging which is nice.

I noticed no reduction in phone reception, call quality, or picture quality. In fact the way it redirects the speaker to the front has actually made watching videos better in my opinion.

The case is quick charge compatible . It also has charge bypass, so when you plug it in it will charge the phone first then the case which I think is great.

Can't speak for protection because I have not dropped it. Only place I feel where it wouldn't protect all that well is the front, there is barely a lip on the front.

Now for the only real negative, the power button. you have to be really on point to press it , but to be fair this could just be a defect in the one I got. But its not bad enough to make want to return it, it works its just not as clicky as the volume buttons are.

The battery is 3500mah so a good decent size.

So this is a great case I can recommend . I have already told my nephew might be a good thing to get for school.

So let me know if you guys have any other questions. I'll try to get some actual pics up as soon as I can.,
