A powerful and reliable external battery that's also
cheap is hard to come by. That's why we're surprised to see that T-Mobile is
currently offering the mophie Powerstation 8X external battery for only US$ 29.99.
This is a 15,000 mAh power bank that can charge your smartphone (Android or
iOS) multiple times depending on the handset's own battery capacity. Of
course, you can also use the mophie Powerstation 8X to charge tablets like
Apple's latest iPad models.
Normally, T-Mobile is selling the mophie
Powerstation 8X for US$ 129.99, so the accessory is currently US$ 100 off. We have to
mention that Amazon has a deal on the battery pack, too, offering it for US$ 69 -
but that's more than double the price T-Mobile is asking.
The mophie Powerstation 8X features two USB charging
ports, thus allowing two devices to be charged simultaneously. The external
battery pack only comes with a micro USB cable in the box, so you may need an
adapter for some phones or tablets (for example, if you own a smartphone that
features a USB Type-C port, you'll obviously need a micro USB to USB Type-C
adapter).
T-Mobile's mophie Powerstation 8X deal is available
for a limited time, only online, or by calling a
T-Mobile rep. Online, you can probably order the battery pack even if you're
not currently a T-Mobile customer.
