It's a pretty badly designed case for sure, although I'm not sure a 'fix' is quite what it is. I've been using my 6S as a mobile hotspot all day (the UK academic internet is under a massive DDOS attack at the mo) plus as normal and I've got 63% of a battery life left as I type. The 6S doesn't need it's battery fixing any more than any other current gen smartphone does. Apple could (by the looks of things) have made a better job of designing an optional peripheral for those who want it, but that's no 'fix'.

Can you tell Jobs is dead yet?
Somehow I can't help thinking that wouldn't have seen the light of day under his tenure.

Retro look? It makes it look like the Nokia I had from Orange back in the early 90s, with its booster battery stuck in the back.

So did Apple cock up and create a too-short battery life leading to this being made, or was it all a deliberate ploy to sell a battery pack?

Neither. There's nothing wrong with the battery life of the 6S.
