Watch Mophie's first Super Bowl ad, it's a hoot!
Business must be great at Mophie. The company is apparently selling a ton of its smartphone cases that feature an embedded battery because after all, a Super Bowl ad ain't cheap. And Mophie is running a spot during Super Bowl 49 as well as offering as much as $1 million in prizes for a contest related to the big game.
First things first. Mophie's ad is tremendous fun as it depicts the end of the world. Dogs are walking their master, it is raining fish, a hurricane invades Nebraska, and there is general chaos through the world. The idea is to show how smartphone users feel when their batteries are low. According to Mophie, this is why you need one of their cases. Another video released by the manufacturer shows how the video was made.
