Good plan: press the “promotional message” below the price
to apply 30% off, then go to the last step, the
payment, the promo is applied at that time and can be
verified

The Apple Watch, like
the iPhone must be recharged every day... or almost. Therefore, for the
stays and trips, accessories manufacturers have imagined
external batteries with a Watch charging roller. Ceci
is practical because it means you don't have to worry about the (long) charging cable
supplied with the watch. We were able to seeseveral
models in this folder
.

Today, we are focusing on a recently released model,certified
Made For Apple Watch
by Apple and signedOittm, a
brand to which we also owe a
Watch + iPhone charging station seen here in detail
.

Onward then for the discovery in images, in details and our opinion on a
practical accessory that surprised on one aspect in particular!

Premier contact

The battery is delivered, well protected, accompanied by a cable
recharge.

When handling, we are pleasantly surprised by the feeling of
robustness and quality.

This is linked on the one hand to the weight, the batteries for 5000 mAh capacity are
present and it can be felt (without being annoying), but also by the use of metal
for the main box. This one is colored black and has a shiny chamfer
on both edges give it a touch of elegance. The start button
road located on the side uses this code: black and shiny bevel

On the top: we note at the end the magnetic roller which is used to
charging the watch by induction.

Its size is larger than that of the standard Apple cable:

charging when the battery is running, or charging.

For recharging, a micro USB socket is provided on one of the
sides:

On the other side, it is a US plug comparable to that of computers which
is provided, it allows you to connect an iPhone charging cable or
accessory of your choice.

Utilisation

The duration is similar to the usual one, in terms of
ability, she was able to reserve aGood
surprise
.

In fact, the battery has a significant capacity of5000
mAh
and the manufacturer announces7 recharges. In practice,
they are there very widely. We did them well (Apple Watch series 0) and
even exceeded since 8 recharges were possible.

We can thusgo for a week without worry.

The battery also allows charging of the iPhone, via the US plug
side (the cable is not supplied) the manufacturer announces 2 recharges
complete. We have not yet tested the number of recharges, so as not to
disrupt the Apple Watch recharge count, but a capacity of 5000
mAh is already significant compared to iPhones equipped according to the models of
batteries from 2000 to 3000 mAh for “plus” models.

iPhon.fr review

This battery appealed to us in several aspects. The first is his
impressive capacity, the second is linked to the
manufacturing quality and compact appearance of the whole. The
everything allows travelers to bring a single all-purpose accessory, which can
help out during the day for an iPhone recharge and in the evening for the watch, without
worrying about finding an outlet or even taking the Watch cable that has
tendency to tie knots in the bag. The only regret, minimal, concerns the
starting the charging of the watch, which requires pressing the button
for charging to start, we would have appreciated automatic detection.

In terms of price, at 50 euros, it is a relatively expensive accessory,
but theonly watch charging cable is already sold for 35 euros per
Apple
, so it's not that expensive! It's even the model
less
price of our inventory for this type of solutions
(except very small
capabilities).

In addition, often, a "promotion" link to click below the price allows
to apply a discount of several tens of%. We then generally fall
at less than 40 euros, we have a good deal here!
