Top 5 Accessories For Apple Products
Apple fanboys and fangirls make hundreds
of arguments as to why their tech
product choices are the only ones that make sense. These run a gamut from the
absolutely absurd (“They're white and pretty!”) to several that actually make
sense, including the subject of this article: accessories. If you own an Apple
product, particularly an iPad or iPhone, you have an easier time shopping for
accessories. Other companies suffer because Apple makes a much smaller line of
products than their competitors, allowing third-party manufacturers to perfect
accessories.
What Makes a Great Accessory?
What makes the best iPad 2 cases, or iPhone 4s earbuds? The best
MacBook Pro sleeve?
There is a difference of opinion here, but the smart money
comes down on the following:
- Form – beauty, sleekness, and style
- Function – actually
working as advertised
- Variety – availability in multiple colors and
trims, and for multiple models
- The “Wow” Factor – Some
of the products in this list do things that make the eyes pop a bit.
The
List
1.
Cases/iOS add-ons for iPhone:There are a lot of
MacGyver-worthy iPhone cases out there. If you haven't upgraded to a better
than standard case, you're in for a real treat. There are iPhone cases
out there that are nigh indestructible, or come with headphone clips, USB
sticks, or swanky leather coverings. There are even cases that have a built in
multitool.Yes, multitool. If
that weren't enough, you can get additional add-ons to allow you to use your
phone as a guitar amplifier, full-function digital camera, and more.
2.
IOS compatible miniature projectors:It would be hard to
quantify how cool this technology actually is; most people probably aren't
aware that their iPhone or iPad can project movies. Projectors for iOS can hook up to an iPad or iPhone and
project video onto walls.
3.
Wall mount:There are a few convenient ways to wall mount your iPad on
the market, and for good reason. Without resorting to juggling, iPad-driven
tasks like cooking, teaching, or drawing can be difficult. You can put brackets
and wall mounts wherever your iPad belongs – in the kitchen for hands-free
recipes, in the living room for device and media control, or in the bathroom
for … well, whatever you like.
4.
Cases for iPad:There are literally
thousands of iPad cases, and some of them have far more bells and whistles than
others, making it hard to figure out which are the best iPad 2 cases. From stylish numbers to elaborate keyboard-equipped affairs,
the options are as varied as the personality of an iPad user. Tailor your
choice to your life – if portability and travel are important, consider a
latchless case with a slim profile. If productivity is your name, grab a
bluetooth keyboard case. No matter your needs, there is an option for you.
5.
Styluses:Drawing on the iPad is useful for lots of
reasons, and people have done some amazing things with it. On the other
hand, using your fingers can leave your screen oily, and it's sometimes hard to
get fine details. Fortunately, the market rose to the challenge and created any
number of styluses and drawing tools to help with the process.
