BoxWave iPhone 5S Accessory Review

April 18, 2014 by Susan Bewley 41 Comments

Disclosure: I received these products for free to review. The opinions in my review are honest and my own.

As many of you know, I love my tech gadgets. Probably the one that I use the most is my iPhone. I’ve grown rather fond of having a smartphone and being able to work just about anywhere! When I got my new iPhone 5s, however, most of my accessories would no longer fit this phone, leaving me looking for entirely new ones. While looking for new items for my phone, I was approached by BoxWave, asking if I would like to review a variety of their iPhone products. After hearing great things about them, I couldn’t wait to get my goody box of accessories!

BoxWave: Who Are They

BoxWave: Keyboard Buddy

Out of all the products I have reviewed recently, the BoxWave Keyboard Buddy has to be the coolest. I am one of those people who hate writing text messages, mostly because the screen seems so tiny and I’m always seeming to type the wrong thing. With the Keyboard Buddy, you have a full (phone) size QWERTY keyboard, right at your finger tips. This keyboard has its own onboard, rechargeable battery that lasts for up to 2 weeks on a charge, and is backlit to make seeing it at night even easier. After playing with this case, I have to say I can’t imagine using anything else!

BoxWave: Rejuva Power Pack Compact

Is there anything more annoying than seeing your battery is about to die and you are nowhere near home? With the Rejuva Power Pack, you can recharge your battery anywhere, even if you are in the middle of the woods away from civilization. This compact battery is capable of completely charging a phone in one use, allowing it to be available for emergencies, or if you are in danger of the camera dying in the middle of taking pictures. As someone who constantly uses her iPhone and has had it die while traveling, I consider this a must have device for any woman, especially if she is traveling alone. Since it can easily fit in your purse, there is no reason not to have it! So far, based on my own use, I am happy to give the Rejuva Power Pack an A rating.

BoxWave: EverTouch Capacitive Stylus

Tired of trying to type on a small screen or having issues properly manipulating games? The EverTouch Capacitive stylus for the iPhone 5S is perfect for helping you do any task. With its FiberMesh tip, it is able to gently touch your screen while still precisely allowing you to do just about anything on your touchscreen device (despite the name, it works with other phones and tablets too). Best of all, it feels just like a pen in your hand, giving you the flexibility to work in apps without getting frustrated or dealing with clumsy fingers. Personally, I love the feel of this stylus and I think it makes it easier to manipulate just about anything on a touch screen. I have tested it for typing, games, and just manipulating programs on my phone and think it is a great idea! Based on my own experience with the EverTouch Capacitive stylus, I am happy to give it an A rating!

Stylus

Boxwave: USB Lightning Cable

Tired of not having a compact charging or syncing cable when you need it? With the BoxWave USB Lightning Cable, you can have a sturdy, compact connecter with you at all times. This fairly short cable is the perfect size for small pockets or tucking away in your purse, allowing you to quickly transfer pictures, or charge your phone on the go. As well, it is much cheaper than the Apple equivalent, allowing you to enjoy fast charging or connectivity at a fraction of the cost. Currently, these cables are available in three sizes – 5 inch, 5 ft, or 10 ft. Personally, I love my 5 inch cable, which neatly fits in the smallest zipper pouch in my everyday purse.  So far, I am happy to give the USB Lightning Cable for iPhone 5 an A rating.

    I love all of these items, but my favorite has to be the keyboard thingy. As a former “Crack”berry addict, I am still not up to par with my touch-screen typing as I am a thumb-er. This would be great for me!

    I have always wanted to try the keyboard, but I was always nervous that it would make my iphone awkward to use! I have used a powerpack before but i ended up loosing my connector to charge it, they are really handy though! I really want to try this brand though it seems to have pretty good products!

    I will def have to look into the Keyboard Buddy for our smartphone. I dont have any issues with texting but my husband has “fat fingers”, as he likes to say, and tends to send some weird words because he had hit more than one letter lol The Rejuva Power Pack Compact is nice also! Depending on where you are and what you are doing on your phone sometimes it is very unpredictable on how long your phone will live. It would be nice to know that you have a backup just in case!

    These are ALL so useful! The one that grabs my attention the most is the Rejuva Power Pack Compact. I think ALL of us, one time or another, has had our cell phones give up the ghost, with no place to charge it. I am definitely in the market for an external battery, and this one fits the bill. Thanks!

    The keyboard accessory looks like something I’d really like. I have the same issues with my phone as you described, and I really like that it’s backlit feature, I have such a hard time seeing small things lately.

    My daughter really needs something like this. Her phone is either needing a charge when I talk with her or something and she forgets to bring a charger to work many times so this would be convenient for her

    I could so use a phone like this because I have trouble with the keys on the screen. I am always correcting my words and it gets frustrating completely.

    The Keyboard Buddy is a wonderful concept; especially for those of us who still like using a physical keyboard in lieu of a touch screen. I don’t know why they haven’t come out with these sooner.
