Innovative, protective power cases for Smartphones and Tablets
London, UK. - August 2, 2013. Gem Distribution, one of the largest hardware, software, consumer electronics and gaming distributors in the UK, has today announced a new partnership with PowerCases, to enhance their Smartphone and Tablet accessory range.
Founded in 2012, PowerCases supply a diverse range of protective cases for iPhones, iPads and other mobile devices. Incorporating an ultra-slim, lightweight lithium polymer battery pack built into their cases. PowerCases allow customers to keep using their devices for even longer.
All products are specially designed and engineered to ensure an ultra slim and sleek profile, yet carry a powerful re-chargeable lithium polymer battery that uses the latest technology to give customers more power while they're on the move.
Charging in the usual way via the mini USB port, the additional power provided by a power case provides smartphones with roughly double the battery life, allowing users to talk, listen, play and explore for longer. Their tablet cases incorporate much larger batteries and feature a standard USB port that can be used to charge other mobile devices.
"The growth of the Smartphone, Tablet and portable technology market has triggered an increased demand for protection and longer usage capabilities for devices. We are pleased to welcome PowerCases on board to add a new dynamic to our already-healthy range of Smartphone and Tablet accessories" comments Jon Sutherland, Head of Category for Gem Distribution.
