It seems that even Apple is frustrated with the iPhone's abbreviated battery life.
苹果公司自己似乎也对iPhone异常短的电池寿命感到挫败。
The Cupertino company on Tuesday joined a cadre of accessory makers and released a new battery case for its smartphone. The $100 case, designed for the iPhone 6s, the smaller of the two current iPhone models, promises to boost the device's talk time to 25 hours and its Internet time over the cell phone networks to 18 hours. Without the battery pack, Apple promises the phone will give 14 hours of talk time and 10 hours of Internet usage. But many owners find that they often get less than that.
当地时间12月8日,一家位于库比蒂诺的公司效仿一众配件制造商,发布了针对苹果手机的新款电池盒。这个售价100美元的电池盒专为iPhone 6s设计,据称能将设备通话时间提升到25小时,将手机上网时间延长到18小时。而没有这个电池盒,苹果手机通话时间为14小时,网络使用时间为10小时。不过很多用户发现他们的电池使用时间远低于这个数值。

The case's design seems a bit out of step with Apple's typical aesthetic. It only comes in two colors — white and black. And rather then mimicking the slick, thin design of the phone and other Apple products, it packs the battery in a bulge on the back.
该电池盒的设计似乎与苹果典型的美学主义格格不入。它只有两种颜色——黑与白,也没有如iPhone及其它苹果产品那般光滑轻薄的外形,而只是将电池贴在背部,凸出一块。
The case does offer some advantages over its competitors. An iPhone can recognize when it is attached to the case, and when it displays its remaining battery power, it will reflect the boost the case provides. To ensure that it doesn't degrade a users' cell phone signal, the case includes a built-in antenna. And unlike many cases, it can be charged with the same Lightning cable that is used to power the iPhone itself.
相比其它竞争者,这款电池盒的确有一些优势。当贴在这款电池盒上,iPhone即可识别它。当手机显示剩余电量时,它还会显示电池盒提供的额外电量。为了确保它不会减弱用户手机信号,电池盒包含一个内置天线。与很多电池盒不同,它能使用iPhone充电线。
But other battery cases and battery backups provide far more power for the same or less money. While Apple's battery case has a 1877 mAh battery, Mophie's Juice Pack Reserve has one that's nearly as big - 1840 mAh - but costs just $60. For $100, users can get Mophie's Juice Pack Air, which has about 50 percent more battery power than Apple's case. Oh, and Mophie and other manufacturers also offer battery cases for iPhone 6s Plus; Apple isn't making one for it's jumbo-sized phone.
然而,其它品牌的电池盒、备用电池可以提供更多储备电量,有的价钱也更便宜。苹果电池盒容量为1877毫安,而提供几乎相同容量(1840毫安)的Mophie的Juice Pack Reserve只需要60美元,而用户花100美元可以购买到Mophie的Juice Pack Air,后者提供的电量比苹果电池盒多50%。此外,Mophie和其它制造商还为iPhone 6s Plus提供电池盒,而苹果目前尚未有此类产品。
And that's not to mention that some other phones offer much longer battery life without needing an extra case. Motorola's Droid Maxx 2 has a built-in 3630 mAh battery - which is more than double the reported capacity of the iPhone 6s's battery. Maybe Apple could think about making more room for a battery inside of its phones, instead of making them ever thinner.
更不用提无需电池盒即可提供更长电池寿命的其他手机。摩托罗拉Droid Maxx 2拥有3630毫安的内置电池——这大约是iPhone 6s电池容量的两倍多。也许苹果可以考虑在手机内部为电池多留出一些空间,而不是一味的将手机做薄。
