Where these two actually differ
- We flag Microplastics from case degradation on the Mophie and not on the Swatch.
- We flag Resin band VOC off-gassing, Resin band degradation over time and Nickel leaching from stainless steel case on the Swatch and not on the Mophie.
- The Mophie is Plastic housing where the Swatch is Quartz crystal, stainless steel case, resin band, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
- We are less certain about the Mophie grade, at 45% confidence against 78%, because it discloses less.
