CES 2025: Swippitt phone battery charger

 

Just don't confuse your toaster with this product.  Retiring Guy knows how groggy you can be first thing in the morning.

Phone-makers and accessory sellers tend to focus on either making phones more power efficient, giving them larger batteries, improving charging speeds or selling cases with an embedded battery, but Swippitt does so by keeping batteries continuously charged and letting you quickly swap them out as needed. It'll work with iPhone 14, 15 and 16 models at launch, with Android support coming later. 

There are a couple of major caveats. For one, you need to be OK with using a relatively bulky case regularly. More importantly, at $450 for the hub and $120 for the Link case, the Swippitt is far from cheap. It's more expensive than a PlayStation 5 and almost as pricey as an iPhone 16.  [emphasis added]
