Not only is this a case to protect your iPhone 7/6/6s from knocks and falls, it’s also a battery extender, portable stand and headphone adapter. It can reportedly triple your battery life, and for all those iPhone 7 users mourning the loss of their headphone jack, the iStand7 kindly obliges. The namesake feature, however, is that the outer frame of the case bends backwards to create a kickstand. While this doesn’t let you replace your tripod — as the angle leaves the phone tilted a little skyward — it does create a great Nightstand-style mode for your phone. Last but not least, you can also choose an option that enables your iStand7 to come with wireless charging ability. Add to that the fact that it doesn’t add much in terms of thickness to your phone (only lengthening it), this looks like a pretty great case/stand/adapter.
