Here are some of the best iPhone accessories you can buy for travel and every day. 01 of 09 OtterBox Defender Series XT for MagSafe Case Amazon Orig. $70 $52 at Amazon The OtterBox Defender XT for MagSafe keeps your iPhone secure and safe from drops. (This version protects the iPhone 15, 14, and 13.) It's also MagSafe-compatible. The Best OtterBox Cases for Your iPhone 02 of 09 Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector Amazon Orig. $35 $18 at Amazon Nobody wants a cracked smartphone screen. This Spigen tempered glass screen protector is designed to protect the Apple iPhone 15 screen while preserving the screen's brightness, clarity, and responsiveness. It offers multi-layer protection with 9H tempered glass, an OCA layer, silicone resin, a PET base, and an anti-dust nano-coating. 03 of 09 PopSockets Phone Grip Compatible with MagSafe Amazon $30 at Amazon PopSockets are small attachments that can easily be stuck to your phone or phone case to act as a smartphone grip or stand. You can flatten them out when not in use and pop the accordion-style socket out when you want to use it as a stand or grip. Accessories on the back of your iPhone or phone case can interfere with wireless MagSafe charging. However, this MagSafe-compatible PopSockets phone grip is made with built-in magnets instead of adhesive and can quickly be snapped on and off for wireless charging. 04 of 09 Apple AirTag 4 Pack Amazon Orig. $99 $85 at Amazon If you want to know where your stuff is at all times, adding an Apple AirTag is a great way to do it. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, you can look up where your tags are. If they’re attached to something or hidden in something – like your luggage or backpack – you’ll know where that is, too. These little devices can be purchased individually, but you save a lot by going for the multi-pack. Their replaceable battery lasts up to a year. 05 of 09 Apple 20W USB-C Power Adapter Amazon Orig. $19 $15 at Amazon You're missing out if you’ve been using an old iPhone charger for years. The latest iPhones can charge up to 20W, significantly accelerating recharging speed. Although faster chargers are available, if you’re only charging your iPhone, this is more than fast enough. You’ll still need a compatible USB cable or MagSafe charger, but this power adapter will charge your smartphone as quickly as possible. 06 of 09 Apple MagSafe Charger Amazon Orig. $39 $34 at Amazon Having an extra charger for your iPhone is always a good idea, so consider snagging this MagSafe charger while it’s on sale. This Apple MagSafe charger can wirelessly charge Apple iPhones and AirPods models with a wireless charging case. The aligned magnets attach to your iPhone to keep it in place while charging and offer faster wireless charging up to 15W. The MagSafe magnetic alignment works with iPhone 12, iPhone 13, iPhone 14, and iPhone 15 models (including Plus, Pro, and Pro Max versions), but it can be used to charge the iPhone 8 and any later version. 07 of 09 Belkin 2-in-1 MagSafe Wireless Charging Dock Amazon Orig. $130 $105 at Amazon This 2-in-1 MagSafe charging dock can help you keep your iPhone, AirPods, or Apple Watch charged while positioning your phone for easy viewing. It can charge two compatible devices simultaneously, with 15W of fast charging power for iPhones and 5W for your Apple Watch or MagSafe-compatible AirPods case. It is compatible with the Apple iPhone 12, 13, 14, and 15. The charging dock supports StandBy Mode and can securely hold your phone at an adjustable angle, so you can use it as a bedside clock or watch YouTube videos while you fall asleep. It has a non-slip weighted base and 60% post-consumer recycled materials for a sturdy and sustainable charging option. 08 of 09 Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) Water-Resistant Earbuds Amazon Orig. $249 $199 at Amazon Apple's AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) are highly rated to resist dust, sweat, and water, making them a fine poolside companion. It doesn't hurt that they also sound great and block out distracting noise, allowing you to hear your favorite songs, podcasts, and audiobooks. 09 of 09 Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter Amazon $97 at Amazon If you want one charger for any Apple device, this 140W Apple power adapter is all you need. With such a monstrous power rating, it can charge laptops, tablets, smartphones, and everything else. It’ll do it fast, too, maxing out the charge speed of any device, as few even support 100W, let alone 140W. For those who can take full advantage, though, this adapter will charge them extra quickly—bringing most MacBooks up to 50% charge in just 30 minutes.
