The ultimate Apple user accessory guide
  • Apple has around 1.3 billion active devices worldwide, a 30% increase in the last two years.
  • Apple is more than the iPhone, iPad, iMac, MacBook, and Apple Watch. There’s a lot more to this brand that will make your life easier.

Apple has been known for delivering best in class user experience for over a decade now. When it comes to a MacBook or an iPhone, we still don’t think twice before shelling out a few hundred dollars. No matter how many other brands deliver impressive innovation (which Apple then implements years later), they still stand tall as being one of the most successful companies in history. For Apple fans, need not explain why.

But, being an Apple stalwart requires a lot more than just owning the device. From protecting the technology we love so dearly to setting ourselves apart from the rest of the Apple cult, accessories are just as popular as the devices. So, here are some of our favorite accessories to last a lifetime (or, at least, the entire lifetime of the iDevice you own).

iPhone X

From wireless charging to exquisite selfies, the iPhone X has been popular even with the hefty price tag. But, are you using it to the fullest potential? Check out our top five picks:
