We’ve been covering the best iPhone 6 Plus cases on the blog recently, but we haven’t seen too many other 6 Plus accessories. Today, we right that wrong – with our selection of five must-have accessories for the iPhone 6 Plus. I’m sure you’re familiar with how this kind of article works by now, so let’s move right into the recommendations without much further ado!
5. Griffin TotalGuard Self Healing Screen Protector
A good iPhone 6 Plus screen protector sounds like a must-have item for me, and I don’t think you’ll disagree. This Griffin TotalGuard seems one of the best options available, thanks to an ingenious self-healing system and clever oleophobic (fingerprint-resistant) properties.
4. a-Jays One Heavy Bass Impact Earphones
The EarPod headphones included with the iPhone 6 Plus are shocking. They fall out of your ears at the slightest provocation, they feel uncomfortable to wear and they sound bloody awful. Thankfully, there are a multitude of better earphones to replace them with, even at the lower end of the market. The a-Jays One are a great budget headphone, offering solid bass and a clear mid-range with 8.6mm dynamic drivers. You won’t find a microphone or in-line remote here, but the remainder of the a-Jays family of earphones do include them for a little extra.
3. Olixar RoadTune Universal Hands-free In-Car Kit with FM Transmitter
The Olixar RoadTune is becoming a fast favourite, just because it provides such a laundry list of features and capabilities. The RoadTune is first and foremost an iPhone car charger, providing 1A of charge to keep your iPhone topped up. It’s also a car holder, keeping your phone easily visible. More interestingly though, the RoadTune is also a FM transmitter and hands-free kit. That means you can tune into the broadcast using your car’s stereo, then listen to your music or take calls using the car’s built-in speakers. It’s a useful ability that’ll ensure you never have to make a mix CD again.
2. Rugged Case-Compatible Charging Dock
Our number 2 accessory is this handy charging dock. The dock provides a handy way of keeping your iPhone charged on your desk or nightstand, while keeping the phone in a useful upright position so you can easily see incoming notifications. The dock is also case-compatible thanks to an included adapter, allowing you to use the dock even with a reasonably thick case attached.
Our final accessory recommendation is a little out of left field, but hear me out. The iPhone 6 Plus has a great camera, so it makes sense to make the most it, right? This Flexi Tripod allows you to take perfect shots from a prepared position, eliminating the impact of shaky hands and extending your photographic capabilities. The Flexi Tripod is also a natural fit for the new time lapse mode introduced in iOS 8, especially given the new curved iPhone body doesn’t stand on its side like the iPhone 5 and 5S. The Flexi Tripod is a cheap but effective way of maximising your photographic potential with the iPhone 6 Plus.
