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…

As the least expensive of Macally’s Mobile Wi-Fi Hard Drive accessories, the new base model WIFIHDD Mobile Wi-Fi Hard Drive Enclosure ($80) doesn’t actually contain a hard drive. Instead, the wireless data streamer is made to work with any 2.5″ SATA hard drive that you provide yourself. If you’d prefer that it arrive with a drive pre-installed, 320, 500, and 750GB versions are available for sale. The box is designed to hold media that can then be…

Coming in variations with the names Goldie, Nibbles, and Gulp, Nice’s CableKeeps ($16) are the rare accessory for iPad, iPhone, and iPod power adapters, rather than the devices themselves. Goldie fits the 5W adapter, while the others are designed for the iPad’s charging block. All three fish-shaped holders are made of rubber, and reinforced where they fit around the adapter. The tail serves as a cable wrap, as well as a stand for your device. It’s…

Incase’s Meta Slider for iPhone 5 ($35) is one of the company’s first real innovations to the style in several years. The new case combines a hard plastic back with rubber around the edges, including button protection. Rather than a simple cap, the removable bottom is four inches long and juts behind the phone with a pad of microsuede for protection. It’s certainly an interesting new option from Incase, and available in either black and grey or white…

Shock Slider for iPhone 5 ($50) is new from Incase, and not all that different from the company’s recent System Vise. The case is composed of three pieces: a rubber skin that can be used on its own, plus hard plastic that slides on from the top and bottom for extra protection. This allows you to choose how much coverage you need, when you need it. Sleep/Wake and volume button protection is built into the case, which comes in black and grey or…
