Prong was an iPhone battery case company based in New York City, primarily manufacturing accessories for electronic devices.

History

[edit]

Prong was founded in 2011 with the production of the PocketPlug. The company later introduced the Prong PWR Case,[1] a removable battery case with integrated prongs.

Prong introduced the PocketPlug, at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2013. It was first reviewed by The Washington Post, [2] citing that they enjoyed the product, although adding the critique that a battery pack was needed and the product had limited usability during charging. The New York Times gave a similar review.[3] CNet felt that the phone was lacking an external battery.[4]

Prong ceased trading in 2017.
