Gadgets: Belkin iPhone 5 Grip Power Battery Case @belkin

Today, we are testing out the stylish Belkin iPhone 5 Grip Power Battery Case. At first glance, the hard plastic chassis is durable and the shock resistant grip is reliable.

Inserting the iPhone into the case was easy and with a snap the case solidly wrapped itself around the device. With this case, the battery life is doubled and the one-cable feature conveniently charges both the case and the iPhone.

The only disadvantage is that the cable does not initiate syncing when plugged into a computer.

Notable features include:

• Doubles battery life
• EarPods compatible
• Shock-resistant bumper with secure-hold grip
• Anti-glare camera ring
• Includes Micro-USB charging cable and headphone adapter
• Rechargeable 2000 mAh battery capacity

$99.
