Top 10 Stylish, Functional + Innovative Accessories To Upgrade Your iPhone

Since its foundation in 1976, Apple has always been at the peak of modern innovation! And let’s take a moment to appreciate all the awesome products and inspiration Apple has provided us with. The groundbreaking tech giant never fails to surprise us, we always find ourselves biting our nails and squirming with curiosity, whenever Apple announces a new product launch. And, the launch of a new iPhone every year is also one of the things that gets us going! We’re hoping to get completely swooned over with the iPhone 15 this October. But until it launches, we’ve curated a collection of innovative and functional iPhone accessories that would be a great fit for your current iPhone, and hopefully the upcoming one as well!

The UPRO Ostand case is the winner of the iF Design Award, and it provides your iPhone’s MagSafe feature with a whole load of super cool upgrades – involving the ability to make your phone stand, hang, or stay securely in your hands as you click a selfie or scroll through Instagram. The UPRO Ostand looks a bit like your typical everyday iPhone case, but the familiar magnetic ring on the back gives it a refreshing upgrade!

The Running Guy came up with the second iteration of the Air Case – the Air Case 2. The Air Case 2 features a bloated textured pattern, that beautifully complements Apple’s upcoming iPhone 15.

3. AirTag Carabiners

Say goodbye to standard metal carabiners, and introduce yourself to these innovative AirTag carabiners. These carabiners aren’t products of the melted metal casing, in fact, each piece is precision-made from solid metal, meticulously handcrafted to provide superior durability. Manufacturing conditions must be taken into consideration, hence slight variations may occur, ensuring that each piece is a unique edition.

The PocketPlay is created using unwavering 3D modeling and rendering, resulting in a sleek and innovative device that provides iPhone gaming controllers with the precise control they crave during games. It has a completely foldable and rotatable design for easy transport and gameplay. So, you can easily fold it up, and and slide it into your pocket or bag.

You can stay hydrated and take shape videos, FaceTime, and shoot IG Reels like a pro with the Ringo Bottle.

PLAUD NOTE comes with MagSafe, so you can snap it to your iPhone, and carry it along with you!

7. Hestia

This is Hestia – a lens that attaches to your smartphone, or to be more precise, a lens that your smartphone attaches to. Hestia is the size of a relatively thick book, and it is the smallest and most powerful telephoto lens in its price bracket, and its purpose is to transform your smartphone into the next James Webb Space Telescope.

8. The M-Stand

This versatile, compact, lightweight, durable, and powerful tool cleverly balances tactical and casual roles.

9. Ice Speed Freezemat Magsafe Wireless Charger

Called “Ice Speed Freezemat Magsafe Wireless Charger” this proposed Apple accessory uses a very interesting method to dissipate heat, keeping the innards at optimum temperature while gaming or during fast charging rituals. Built out of aviation-grade cooling material, Ice Speed Freezemat has an interesting cooling mechanism inspired by the way the human body sweats to dissipate heat.

10. The Rmour Candy Corner Protector

If your phone ever drops on the floor, you’ll notice that it never actually falls perfectly flat on the ground. The corner usually takes the first point of impact, thereby sending shock waves to the rest of the phone. And this is where the Rmour Candy Corner Protector comes in. It protects your phone’s corners and ends up protecting the entire phone from severe damage-causing scenarios.
