Look hot while charging your iPhone




OK, I got me a new portable charger last week and I’m actually very pleased with it. It’s a Futurocks Power Bank with flash light 5000 mAh and I wanted to learn a bit more about the company that makes them. I tried to find some specifics about this particular brand, some user reviews about - why it is considered good or bad, what makes it a good choice, etc and I just kept running into some articles about how well it goes with certain outfits! I even found one where people actually commented something like, "Ooh, I will definitely try this power charger, because it really goes well with that jacket and mine is very similar, and btw, that T-shirt looks gorgeous on you, babe!" It’s true, look for yourself

So, I thought, ‘OK, if this is the case, I’ll write the review about this myself’.

Futurocks (I managed to find out!) is a UK based company that produces iPhone cases and power banks for iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and literally any USB power device. Two good friends, apparently, ‘fed up with short battery life of iPhones’ started producing their own line of stylish, yet genuinely efficient iPhone gadgets.
And, while most power chargers can easily power up any of today’s smartphones, not every power bank can provide a suitable support for tablets. So, this is just the first of many values Futurocks’ power banks have to offer. They are capable of supplying your iPhone, iPod, Samsung Galaxy, HTC, Sonny PSP, Nokia, etc. with up to 200 % of extra juice and 100% for iPads!

They come with various capacities. This little orange piece, for example has 5000 mAh capacity, which is not the most powerful on the market, but, it’s more than enough to allow you texting, blogging, hanging on your social media, listening to music, etc. for the entire day! And considering the price - £19.99 – it’s a great buy.
Futurocks Dual USB Power Bank 5000
Depending on your needs, Futurocks offers models with one and dual USB ports so you can power up two devices simultaneously, if you’re in a hurry. (Or, if you’re such a social media addict to consume two batteries in a short time ) A friend of mine brought it on a camping trip last time, and it was very cool to be able to charge a tablet and a mobile phone at the same time. (I’m not sure, though, how happy he was when the rest of us usurped it for our own devices!) I can’t wait the next time I go camping; I expect this fancy flash light to be a proper hit when we wake up and start stumbling around at night 

Futurocks uses lithium batteries which provides a long and safe life to their power banks.
And finally, they’re small and weight just 50-100 grams so your Futurocks emergency charger will easily fit in the smallest pocket!

So in conclusion, not only will you look hot and stylish, you will also have a useful gadget to go with your iPhone.

Fancy Little Power-Ups for Your Smartphone


May You Never Again Be Cut Off From the World!

If you’re anything like me, you probably keep forgetting to charge your iPhone on a regular basis. I’ve come to completely rely on my mobile in my work, and yet, I never seem to remember to fully charge it and then I end up isolated from the rest of the world for a half a day sometimes! It’s crazy, I know!
Fortunately, there is a solution for all of us negligent about this! Power banks! or as I like to call them emergency chargers. No matter where you are, you can power up your iPhone on the go. It’s so practical and neat.
There are virtually hundreds of different designs, colours and shapes you can choose from; with various features and power rates
 

      Take this little beauty, for example: it’s an external battery for iPhones, but you can also attach to it almost any model of a smartphone you have and you’re all set! It supports iPhone, iPad, Samsung Galaxy, Sony PSP, HTC, etc.
It looks quite slim and slick, and so pink and girly, but when you look past its delicate design and colour, you’ll find that it’s quite powerful! The capacity of this power bank is 5000 mAh, which is powerful enough to charge your iPad 100% and to provide up to 200% extra charge for your iPhone or iPod! And, yes girls – there are five different colours of this model of power bank!




Futurocks Power Bank 5000 mAh Pink

It gets even better, not only it is a portable charger, but it also allows two different devices to charge at the same time!
It costs £19.99 and comes with a year warranty.

My personal favourite is something a little bit different: it can also support various other devices not just iPhones, same as the above one; it also provides 300% extra charge for your phone.
On the other hand, it has one USB port, so you can charge one device at a time.
Because of its one practical feature, it is a popular choice of both, boys and girls – it has a flashlight; and a really bright one, too. This makes it an irreplaceable gadget for camping trips, fishing, travelling, and for more reasons than one; also, if you have to go through some dark allies on your way home, it can really come in handy.
It fits in even the smallest of pockets and it’s so light (just a bit over 100g), you can easily forget you have it on you!

       Another of Futurocks’ designs is this mini iPhone charger, which is even lighter than the previous two (about 50g) and if it is at all possible, even more adorable. Just be careful not to mistake it for a lipstick when you go through your purse.






Futurocks Mini Power Bank 2600 mAh
 
It has a slightly lower capacity, 2600 mAh; yet it’s still enough to power up your smartphone 100%. It can be used for Samsung Galaxy, Sony PSP, Nokia, iPhone, iPod, and various other phones.
You can order it for £9.99 and choose from 8 different colours.
So, the design, the model, the size and colour is entirely up to you; one thing I promise you, though  – this useful little thingy will quickly become your best friend!
