The right accessory can make your iPhone or Mac even more useful. A compact charger can replace several power adapters in your travel bag, while a Thunderbolt dock can simplify your Mac desk setup.
Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days give you a chance to pick up these upgrades for less. Below, we have rounded up the best accessories worth checking out.
Apple’s October launch plans could extend beyond its rumored October 13 launch event, with the OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro potentially debuting later in the month.
This could make its rumored October 13 smart home event just the start of a much bigger launch spree.

The Clevetura S keyboard stands out due to its dual functionality, which combines a Mac keyboard with a built-in trackpad. The twist is that instead of adding a dedicated trackpad to the keyboard, it turns the keys themselves into a touch surface.
This clever idea works well in daily use, although it comes with a learning curve.
Apple’s upcoming touchscreen MacBook Pro redesign will address one major pain point with the current models: weight.
Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman says the OLED MacBook Pro will be “significantly lighter” than its predecessors.
An AirPods Pro 3 deal drops Apple’s excellent noise-canceling earbuds to just $179 at Amazon. That’s a sweet $70 discount.
AirPods Pro 3 bring loads of features, including Live Translation, a heart rate monitor, revved-up audio quality and redesigned ear tips for better active noise cancellation. Plus, like the previous model, they can even function as clinical-grade hearing aids.
Make no mistake: These are the best wireless earbuds you can buy for your iPhone, Mac and other Apple gear. Nothing can match how seamlessly AirPods integrate with Apple devices.
With many users unknowingly granting AI agents Full Disk Access on their Macs, Apple is stepping in and introducing additional security measures.
“Some developers are using Full Disk Access in ways that could put users at risk, exposing everything on their systems — including files, mail, messages, and even browsing history — without users’ full knowledge and understanding,” Apple says in a post on its developer website.
A “small number” of iPhone 18 Pro Max units on AT&T’s network lose cellular connectivity because of an iOS 27 bug. This is not an intermittent problem, as the devices fail to reconnect to the network even after a reboot.
Apple recommended on Friday that all iPhone 18 Pro Max users update to iOS 27.0.1 to prevent the issue from happening in the future. But if your unit is already affected, you’ll need a replacement.
The iPhone Duo features a replaceable display cover that will be relatively inexpensive to replace under AppleCare coverage. Unlike regular smartphones, foldable displays feature a protective covering on top of the display.
Over time, this layer can start showing scratches or a visible crease. A replaceable cover layer solves that problem to a certain extent.
AirPods 5 are Apple’s most repairable earbuds yet. But that doesn’t mean much, as the case is “still a disaster” when it comes to repairability.
As the iFixit teardown team aptly puts it, the “AirPods 5 are the least unrepairable AirPods yet.”
The iPhone Duo will ship with several unannounced StandBy faces that Apple didn’t reveal during the foldable’s unveiling or in its press materials. However, a leaker is spoiling the surprises by revealing at least five more StandBy faces for the Duo.
The foldable will also feature a new face editor similar to the Apple Watch face editor.
★★★★☆
The more I use the BenQ PD2732U monitor, the more I appreciate its quality 27-inch 4K panel. Colors look spot-on to my eyes, uniformity is good, and the extensive connectivity fits neatly into my Mac setup.
However, while there’s plenty to like about BenQ’s newest professional monitor, the PD2732U misses out on a few key features. My review will show you where the BenQ PD2732U shines and where it falls short.
After upgrading your Mac to macOS 27 Golden Gate, you might easily overlook some of the new software’s useful additions, like recording your screen with audio, Liquid Glass customization and more.
While the new Mac software looks mostly the same as macOS 26 Tahoe, it adds plenty of new features and improvements that make it a worthy upgrade. Here are eight things you should do immediately after installing macOS Golden Gate.
For a four-year-old device, the iPhone 14 Pro has aged well. But the iPhone 18 Pro offers some compelling everyday improvements that make it a worthwhile upgrade.
If you use an iPhone 14 Pro, it may just be time to upgrade. Here’s our iPhone 18 Pro vs. iPhone 14 Pro comparison to help you decide.
Apple is preparing a software update to fix a bug that causes the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max to restart unexpectedly. This typically happens after a failed Face ID scan, causing the phone to freeze and reboot.
The company plans to roll out the bug-fixing iOS 27 build early next week.
Meta expanded its Ray-Ban glasses lineup at Connect 2026 with two new additions: an audio-only model and the third-generation Ray-Ban glasses. The Ray-Ban Meta Audio starts at $349, while the Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3 starts at $449.
The flagship AI glasses feature a slimmer design and last longer.
Apple solders the storage chip on the M6 and M5 Pro Mac mini, making third-party storage upgrades impossible. This is a regression from the M4 Mac mini, which shipped with a removable storage module.
So, if you plan to buy a Mac mini, configure it with enough storage from the start, as future upgrades — even from third-party vendors — will not be possible.
watchOS 27 removed the app switcher from the Apple Watch, making it harder to quickly jump back to the last app you were using. Thankfully, Apple will address this regression to an extent with watchOS 27.2 later this year.
With the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max now on store shelves, iFixit put Apple’s latest flagship phones under the knife. The teardown gives us an up-close look at the devices’ new variable-aperture camera, larger cooling systems and a possible repair challenge.
It also reveals how Apple shrunk the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 18 Pro without affecting Face ID’s functionality.
The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max charge faster than any previous iPhone. This means a quick top-up will enable the phone to last a few additional hours.
However, to get the best speeds, you need to pick the right USB-C charger and cable for your iPhone. Here’s what you need for fast wired and wireless charging for the iPhone 18 Pro, and what to check before buying new accessories.
The wait for Apple’s latest gear is over. The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max hit retail stores Friday alongside the Apple Watch Series 12, Apple Watch Ultra 4 and AirPods 5.
Crowds lined up outside Apple Stores around the world, even as a highly unusual launch cycle took place for the latest iPhones.
iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max appear to bring two upgrades you will appreciate in everyday use: faster charging and better cooling.
Apple hyped these improvements during its September 9 launch event. And early testing suggests the upgrades are real.
Three years is a long time in the tech world. And forever in the world of smartphones. If you got an iPhone 15 Pro in 2023, the iPhone 18 Pro will look mighty tempting.
Are the improved cameras, longer battery life and faster charging speeds enough to justify upgrading from the iPhone 15 Pro, especially with the higher starting price? Here’s how the two compare.
Apple seeded the first iOS 27.2 beta to developers on Wednesday, giving them the chance to test several notable changes and improvements.
The company is skipping beta testing iOS 27.1, an unusual move but one with a good “Duo” reason behind it. Below is a rundown of all the new stuff in iOS 27.2 beta 1. (We will update the post as we discover more.)
Apple Watch Ultra 4 arrives a year after the Ultra 3, building on its predecessor’s improvements. While the Ultra 4 looks the same, it features massive upgrades, including a new chip and new optical and electrical heart sensors.
There’s also Audio Intelligence, longer battery life and new recovery insights. But are these upgrades enough to justify upgrading from a year-old Ultra 3?
The first Geekbench scores for the Apple processors inside the M6 Mac mini and M5 Ultra Mac Studio surfaced online, giving us a glimpse of their expected performance when the new computers hit stores next week.
Based on the scores, it looks like Apple’s new high-end and entry-level Apple silicon chips will set new standards in their respective categories.
