Apple^® products—from desktop and laptop computers to phones and tablets—are exceptionally functional on their own. However, you can get even more out of them if you invest in a few convenient accessories. To help you enjoy your digital devices to the maximum, here is a list of useful accessories you should consider for your Apple devices.

3 Important Accessories for Your Apple Products

1. Dual Function Charger

One of the few inconveniences of the latest generation of iPhone^® devices and iPad^® tablets is they feature a single, dual-use charge receptacle. This means you must choose whether you wish to charge the device or connect it to earbuds; you cannot do both at once. However, the Belkin^® Lightning Audio + Charge RockStar^™ is a dual-function splitter that lets you simultaneously recharge your device's battery while listening to the headphones. It’s extremely convenient and lets you keep the device battery topped off—without interrupting its functionality.

2. Extra-durable USB Cable

Many traditional USB cables wear out quickly. The wires inside break as the cord flexes and bends with use. The Belkin Mixit DuraTek^™ Lightning Cable resolves this problem with a durable sleeve that’s tested to withstand more than 5,000 bend cycles. It's made of DuPont^™ Kevlar^®, the material used in bulletproof vests, which flexes but does not stretch. It protects the interior wires from loosening and breakage, a fact that gives this cable an exceptionally long life span and makes it worth the investment.

3. Headphones

iPhone devices and most other Apple products include a built-in speaker, so you can listen to music and videos or engage in phone or FaceTime^® conversations. However, the sound from these speakers is tinny and monaural. For the best sound possible, consider headphones that let you enjoy full-quality stereo. Traditional earbuds are inexpensive and effective, but many people prefer Bluetooth^®-capable wireless headphones that offer maximum freedom and untether the listener from the device.
