Are you America’s ultimate iPhone accessory junkie or are you a Neanderthal hunting for android rabbits under the
rock? Either way, if you own a Smartphone (assuming you have upgraded from the DynaTAC8000X),
you will find an adventurous inspiration to visit your gadgets store for one of
the following top-selling iPhone accessories.
On normal days, I am content with
downloading apps by the hundreds. However, when I am in a good mood, I buy
everything from phone stickers to danglers to headsets to anything that looks
even remotely like an appendage for my Smartphone. Oh, I barely use them.
Some of them here, like the Plantronics Voyager Legend Bluetooth headset, are one
of the top selling products for the iPhone 4, iPhone 5, and the iPad 3 thanks
to its high-end audio functionalities. Others are not so much for their
functional capability as for aesthetic appeal – like the delightful Tabby Cat
Anti-Dust Earphone Jack Plug Cap (I will get one each for my sisters).
In any case, any one of them should
fit your budget, and offer your iPhone additional spec points. And make you
look less like you were the first customer of the Nokia 8310. Here are the
hottest accessories currently pulling in iPhone users. In case you are interested I have added some links to Amazon, where you'll find the products at better deals that the original retail prices from the manufacturers.
Photive 25 Watt 5 Port USB DesktopRapid Charger (Multiport USB Travel Charger)
The Photive multi-purpose charger
I absolutely love this one. The Photive
charger looks like a miniature CPU with five tiny drawers. Only the ‘drawers’
are the charging ports for – hold you phone – iPad, Samsung Tab, another for
iPad, and one for your iPhone and the fifth for any android device! The
appliance charges
up to five devices simultaneously.
Also, the manufacturers assure you protection from
overcharge safely “without risk of overheating or damaging devices.” You can
charge more than just your Smartphone or tablet – It will also power up your
e-reader, Bluetooth headphones, portable speakers and nearly any other device
that charges with a USB cord.
(For iPhone 4 / iPhone 4S / iPhone 5, iPod,
iPad, HTC, Samsung)
That's one for the cuties
Okay,
this one is for your girlfriend, or bratty sister. This accessory is made of a
rubbery-plastic material and works in any phone that has a 3.5mm headphone jack.
The plug will protect your phone from foreign materials particularly dust and water.
Have you noticed moldy algae-ish marks under your Smartphone screen? They are
grime formed from a buildup of dust and moisture (or water) that entered your
phone, normally through jack vents and USB ports.
The cat plug could well be
your solution. The plug comes in two colors and in various other designs – hanging-on-to-phone,
crouching, stretching or sitting. They come in grey and yellow. If you are a
normal dude, stay away from this sugary little thing.
$133.99 (Amazon has a good bargain)
That's the Plantronics Voyager Legend. I hope it transforms into Optimus Prime
This mobile Bluetooth headset just might
be for you, all you PC addicts. There is no other communication issue more annoying
than a phone call in the middle of a particularly Facebook image right? Go for
this ounce of audio technology. This comfortable Bluetooth device has excellent
noise-cancelling capabilities and a potent battery. It features three layers of
microphones, wind protection, A2DP support and a USB Bluetooth Mini-adapter.
Other juicy features include a control panel on the headset, which allows for customization
of settings, including call notification and related options. The set will automatically update when you are on a call, not only on PC
calls, but also when using your mobile device for calls.
iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s
Price: $ 140 (Amazon has a better discount)
The Mophie Juice Pack Plus is your camping iPhone's camping companion
Oh, okay, lazybones, what is worse than
having to walk all the way to the electric socket to charge you phone in the
middle of this particularly interesting football game? Here comes Mophie Juice Pack Plus– a case-like device
that charges your phone. The new Mophie Juice Pack provides 120% extra battery juice
when you need it – anywhere so long as you have the pack with you. They do not
have electric chargers in the mountains.
The ‘mobile add-on’ is a rechargeable
smart battery concealed inside of a lightweight, soft touch, 2-tone metallic
case. It adds up to 8 hours of talk time (up to 16 on 2G) and 7 hours of Web
browsing on 3G (up to 11 on Wi-Fi) to your iPhone. An integrated LED status
indicator tells you exactly how much power juice is left. You can also charge
and sync your iPhone to iTunes without removing it from the juice pack air by
using the included USB cable.
What's your favorite iPhone accessory? I want to try it out if you have recommendations.
