Buying for the Apple fan who has everything
We’re entering 2024’s holiday shopping season, which runs from Black Friday until Christmas. This means two things: great prices on superb tech products, and lots of difficult buying decisions. It’s hard enough knowing what to buy for yourself, but how do you choose gifts for your friends and loved ones?
In this article, we offer our advice on great gifts to buy for the Apple fans in your life.
What you shouldn’t buy
First things first. Should you buy them an Apple device? If you’re very rich, and absolutely confident that you know exactly the right configuration and model to get, then… maybe. But in general, Apple fans plan their major purchases a long time in advance, and will know best which product to buy and when.
How about an accessory for a device your loved one already owns? A case, stand, charging dock, or battery pack will cost far less than an entirely new device, and is therefore less of a commitment, and less of a risk. High-quality accessories are a great way to super-power iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches, and AirPods, enabling your loved one to get more out of the products they’ve spent a big chunk of money on. And best of all, you don’t need to worry about picking the correct storage capacity or configuration.
What you should buy
Okay, so a premium accessory for your loved one’s favorite Apple product is the right general choice. But what specifically should we buy? The first step is to make sure you buy from a reputable manufacturer with a track record in the industry. The second is to check that you’re getting high-quality products at a sensible price, so online reviews will be an important resource.
The choice of vendor is up to you, but one option worth considering is ESR, a leading mobile accessories brand. The company has been in the industry for 15 years, amassing more than 100 million users and a huge number of positive reviews–and no wonder, bearing in mind the wide range of quality products it sells at reasonable prices.
Take the 3-in-1 MagSafe Charger with Qi2 and CryoBoost™, for example. This attractive and versatile accessory can wirelessly charge your loved one’s iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods case at the same time, and does so at market-leading speeds thanks to the company’s proprietary cooling technology. This is currently 22% off, only $69.99 from Amazon. And you can get an extra 10% off with the code ESRFDL99!

Or the Qi2 MagSafe Battery Pack with Kickstand, a sleek and slim iPhone power bank featuring an integrated kickstand for portrait and landscape viewing: the perfect way to upgrade iPhone battery life while boosting its capabilities for TV or movie watching, and for FaceTiming friends and family (including you, the gift giver!). With ultraportability, fast charging speed and a stunning slimline profile, this is only $35.99 from Amazon. Or pay slightly more for the 10,000mAh option that’s now 25% off, costing just $37.49 from Amazon.
If your loved one drives, perhaps the MagSafe Car Charger with Qi2 and CryoBoost (41% off and only $31.49 from Amazon; you can get extra 10% off with the code ESRCZQI2) is the right choice. The device’s 18 powerful N52 magnets maintain a secure contact even on rough roads, and it can fully charge an iPhone 16 Pro in an astonishing 1 hour and 8 minutes, even when using GPS, thanks to the CryoBoost cooling technology. That’s a solid 10% better than rival Qi2 chargers.
What about ESR’s Classic Hybrid Case with Stash Stand? Engineered to survive drops from up to 11 feet, this smart case is nevertheless amazingly slim and light, adding just 1.6mm to the thickness of your loved one’s iPhone. The clever design means you can keep on using MagSafe accessories while using the stand, and charging speeds are exceptional. A bargain at $23.99 from Amazon. Or to look after your phone’s display, consider the Armorite Screen Protector ($15.29 from Amazon). You can save an extra 10% on all iPhone 16 cases and screen protectors until December 25 by using the code ESRiPhone16.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of ESR’s amazing range of Apple accessories, boasting premium design, market-leading charging speeds, useful cooling features, and low prices. For protection, consider the FlickLock™ Case ($18.99 from Amazon) for the latest AirPods. For all-round utility, the Aura Wallet Stand (HaloLock) ($39.99 from Amazon) is a terrific choice, combining a securely held magnetic five-card wallet with a strong and useful hinge stand that lets you position the iPhone in portrait or landscape at any angle between 15° and 160°. And for the iPad owner in your life, what about the Shift Magnetic Case ($49.99 from Amazon)? With six unique use modes and highly adjustable viewing angles, it’s the ultimate versatile upgrade for an Apple tablet. The choice, in the end, is yours. But no matter how demanding the Apple fan in your life may be, ESR has something that they’ll love. Good luck!
