If you’re ready to take your phone to the next level, here are the 6 of the best iPhone accessories:

 

Protective Phone Cases

One of the first accessories that people purchase when they get an iPhone is a phone case. It may seem obvious that you need a protective phone case, but most people don’t know what a good case actually looks like.

Casley has a wide range of cases for the iPhone that come at varying levels of protection. You can choose from a chic assortment of patterns and designs. Not only do these cases feel luxurious, but they keep your phone safe.

 

Alternative Lightning Cables

The lightning cables that Apple provide don’t always last very long. There are lots of alternative lightning cable options on the market that serve their purpose but also offer additional features as well.

Look for a lightning cable that is longer than the traditional cable. Also, choose one that is made from an ultra-durable fibre material. Some cables even come with a Velcro strap, which is ideal for storing and transporting the cable.

 

Phone Grips

If you’re active on social media, chances are you’ve seen PopSockets before. These button-like grips attach to the back of your phone and allow you to maintain a secure grip throughout your busy day.

Another cool feature of these grips is that they’re customisable. There are so many unique colours and designs on the market, so it’s hard to imagine that you’ll have trouble finding one suited for your style.

 

Wireless Chargers

A wireless charger is one of the most unique and luxurious iPhone accessories to have. Lots of brands make wireless charging pads that are compatible with the iPhone. To use these devices, you simply place your phone on the pad and let it charge.

Not only do they look sleek, but they save you the hassle of having to gather cables. They are usually made from a gripping fabric that keeps your phone from falling off. If you are considering a wireless charger, remember that you may have a hard time receiving full charge if you have a very thick phone case.

 

External Battery Packs

If you use your phone more than the average person and you’re always on the go, having an external battery pack in your arsenal of iPhone accessories will come in handy. You can buy an external battery pack from practically anywhere.

They come in a variety of capacities, so choose one that best suits your needs. If you anticipate needing several charges throughout the die, opt for one with a higher mAh. Many external batteries will also come with a micro-USB that makes it easier to carry your phone and charger around without having to worry about a dangling cable.

 

External Storage

iPhone storage always seems to diminish quickly. If your phone is cluttered with photos and other data that calls for a lot of storage, you can buy one of these convenient gadgets.

Essentially, an external storage device is a flash drive with a lightning connector instead of a USB, meaning that you plug it into your phone instead of your computer.

Once you plug it into your phone’s charging port, it automatically backs up photos, videos, contacts, and more, so none of your data gets lost. You can then transfer this data to your computer, so you don’t lose anything.
