I remember the day I got my iPhone. People shied away from me as I squealed with utter joy and delight, because I was now one of the elite. They didn’t understand my brilliant decision, their world still restricted by their archaic mobile phones. Not a day goes by that I’m not impressed with this incredible device, and if you’re planning to buy one—trust me, you won’t regret it.
This holiday season is providing us with a slew of accessories, to make iPhone owners even cooler than we already are. Here are some of my favorites.
The most important thing you can do once you get your hands on that technological investment, is protect it. The Armor metal hybrid case is second to none and available in 5 two-tone colors. You don’t want to scratch, dent or allow dust to affect your new toy. For only $34.90, it includes a crystal screen protector.
The first thing you’ll notice is the headphones that come with the phone are complete crap. Remember, you’re a cool techy now, which means you need cool headphones. SOL Republic Tracks Headphones will be the best headphones you’ll ever buy: comfy, lightweight and virtually indestructible. For only $99, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without their V8 Sound Engine.
If you travel like I do, you need to have a way to charge your phone other than getting out your laptop. This nifty device doesn’t need cords, has a USB port (useful for other devices other than your phone) and includes wall prongs for Australia, Singapore, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, New Zealand, North America, Japan and Continental Europe. It’s about $25.00 and worth every penny.
Need something to prop your iPhone up to watch a movie, take that conference call or to take a perfect picture? Then try using a spider. You heard me right. For under $10 you can attach your iPhone to a myriad of surfaces, even bend it into a tripod for that picture.
Need a recharge but feel like blasting out some tunes? Not a problem: this speaker doc lets you plug, play and prance to your own song list, or directly from music sources like Pandora. The $199 speaker comes with extra features, like video output and an alarm clock.
It's always a great idea to have a power backup and this hot little item proves you’re clever and cool. With up to 3 hours of extra energy, this $20 (on Amazon) instant USB charger gives you peace of mind in an emergency.
