is this case a rechargable case? Can i use a regular case till my battery dies then use this when I need extra battery life? Trying to find a rechargable case to use on the bus while traveling.

Yes its a rechargeable case! You will receive a new battery that has metal connections on the back and the S-View case that is pretty much 2 batteries in one... trust me I am an avid user of my phone all day long with this case I don't have to charge once during the day! If I wanted to push it I could probably go two days

Hi. This case comes with battery which you have to replace the original battery and then install the case. This is rechargable case it has to be always on the phone.

Any other suggestions? I bought one at BBY and it doesn't fit in far enough to zip closed due to the extended battery shape. If I removed the battery it would fit but that defeats the purpose. Are there any soft/slip cover cases that'll fit the width?

There is a battery in the case itself and your phone automatically pulls power from that battery when it needs it. The case uses a micro USB cord and will charge both the battery in the case and your phone at the same time. Mine just recharged my phone as I was typing this :)

The unit has a battery for memory only so if you unplug it for a period of time all of your settings are saved once power is restored.As for the case, Yes it is possible to charge with my case on but keep in mind there are many different styles of cases.

Good question,looks like the same style case but ive asked this as well,but no it will not fit the battery thats why they supply the case with the extended battery,shame really the razor armor case looks better in my opinion,hope this helps you out

Your question doesnt make any sense. The case is not the battery so the case does not charge. You can charge the battery on or off the phone in or out of the case.I have no idea what these other 2 people are talking about in their answers.

No! The case gets extremely hot and you are lucky if you get 10% extra battery life. I returned mine for a full refund.

This is the phone case you put your iPhone in. You need it to charge with the mat. So, yes, you could call it an extra battery.

No. The charging case is used when you need emergency power and are charge from a USB port.

I have had my case for over a year, and just recently started to have issues with it. It has the ability to recharge the phone from dead to full in one charge. Hopefully one of these answers your question.

I have not successfully located high quality protective cases for smart phones with extended batteries. It would be wise for manufacturers to be sensitive to this growing need in the marketplace. If you find one, I am interested in checking it out.

You can buy "extended battery cases" from Hyperion for about $10. They're sold here on Amazon.com.

Yes, strictly speaking. It is a lead-acid battery that you could use and then recharge. But it's not a 'rechargeable battery' in the modern sense. It's not designed to be used until dead, then recharged. It's generally going to be kept at full charge by wall voltage. It's just there to supply backup power in case wall voltage is interrupted.

The case is a battery. No additional battery is required. It also comes with a USB cable for charging.

Hello. There is a battery cover, but it does not cover the entire area where the batteries are inserted. The cover ensures that if you are using AA batteries they will stay in the case. The open area of the battery cover also allows certain rechargeable camera batteries, that are shaped in a bulky way, to be used with the cover on. Thank you

The case is pretty thick and holds inside of it a battery. You put the case on the phone. When your phone is almost dead, you press a button on the case, and your phone starts charging. When both your phones battery and the cases battery are dead, you can keep the case on the phone and simply plug the case in, which will charge both devices.This case is amazing
