The Mophie Hold Force magnetic phone case system is very handy. In fact, if you’re a business person, we think this product should be on your shortlist for cases. Why? Because it works well for almost all business related events and occasions.
The Hold Force case itself isn’t too bad of a case but it won’t offer much in terms of drop protection when compared to other slim cases. The strength of the case comes from the magnetic back which allows you to attach a variety of different accessories to the back…if you have the cash for it. There is one accessory that we think is absolute garbage. You’ll have to find out which one it is below.
Get the Mophie Hold Force on Amazon (CA/UK/DE) or on eBay!
The case will slide around easily when placed face first which isn’t great and the clear corners will show scratches easily. It isn’t as apparent as other cases because of the thickness of the corners.

When it comes to accessing the iPhone, we had no issues with the buttons or the ports or the camera. One-handed usage is decent despite the slick corners because the edge of the case aren’t too rounded and your fingers have a bit of texture to dig in with the rubber back.

Out of the three accessories listed on Mophie’s website, the spare battery pack is probably going to be the most useful in our opinion since it works with any device. The unit charges via a Micro-USB cable and plugs into your iPhone using a regular lightning cable. Or if you’re using a different device, you can pull of the Lightning head and use the Micro-USB output. The dual-head feature is very hand.

We’re big fans of picking the right tool for the job. The Hold Force Wallet is perfect for those days where you only need 1-2 cards rather than your entire wallet or purse. Our friend Agata really likes this setup because she can easily turn the iPhone into a wallet case for short trips out to the store. The design works better than other similar cases like the Incipio Esquire or any of the other on-the-go wallets in our Top 10 iPhone wallet case list.
Again, pick what you need and leave the extra cards at home!

In our opinion, Mophie needs to get rid of this product. Or update it. Getting this product in the mail and looking at how it fits with the Hold Force case felt like a kick in the nuts. The fit of the Folio is horrendous as the edges of the folio extend past the case and are very noticeable. There is a significant gap between the folio and the front of the iPhone. The gap still exists even with a full-loaded folio cover.
What’s odd is that the folio case fits the Mophie Juice Pack Air perfectly. But that product didn’t come out till several months after the Hold Force case came out. If you check the Mophie website right now, you’ll find that the Folio isn’t an official accessory for the Juice Pack Air despite the perfect fit. It really doesn’t make any sense.
