Everpurse has announced the successor to it’s original phone charging clutch. The new Mini does away with one of the gee-wiz features of the original Kickstarter-backed bag, a cordless charging mat. Instead, the new hard sided clutch’s latch doubles as a USB plug, requiring you to plug the purse/case directly into a USB charger. While the charging mechanism seems like a solid step backwards, the reduced price and built-in wallet will likely bring in a new audience. Through May 6 it is available for preorder at a $31 discount and is only available for the iPhone 5/5s. It is scheduled to ship during summer of 2014, just a few short months before being outdated as the iPhone is rumored to shift to a larger size.
