Our friends over at T3 have announced their Annual awards and their Gadget Accessory of the Year<\/a> category has really caught our eye, as we sell half the products nominated.\u00a0 Therefore, we thought we\u2019d take a look at what makes these gadgets so special and tell you which gadget we think should have made the shortlist.<\/p>\n

Idapt Universal Charger I4<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s no surprise that the idapt has been nominated, as it\u2019s the sleekest, multi charger around, which reduces clutter and doubles up as a mobile phone holder<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even better, it charges up to 4 devices at once and is compatible with more than 3,500 devices including Nintendo devices and the Sony PSP, as well as the major mobile phone brands.\u00a0 To charge multiple devices, the Idapt has an interchangeable tip system, meaning that you simply just select the tip required and place it in the device.<\/p>\n

In order to help save energy and money, the Idapt has LED lights next to each charging port that let you know if your device is fully charged or not.\u00a0 It can be turned on and off and also saves on power, as only one charger is being used instead of four.<\/p>\n

Apple Smart Cover<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Apple Smart Cover was one of the most sought after accessories when the iPad 2 was released and it\u2019s easy to see why.\u00a0 With its sleek multi-functional design, allowing it to be used as both an iPad 2 stand and iPad 2 screen protector<\/a>; the Apple Smart Cover really is the ultimate iPad 2 accessory.\u00a0 Plus, there\u2019s a wide variety of colours and styles to choose from, meaning there\u2019s a smart cover for everyone.<\/p>\n

It has faced a small amount of backlash though, as many users wanted coverage for the back of the iPad too, but when teamed with a smart cover compatible case<\/a> the Apple Smart Cover does it\u2019s job just as well.<\/p>\n

Jawbone Era<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Being the most beautiful and stylish Bluetooth Headset around, the Jawbone Era well and truly deserves its nomination.\u00a0 Not only is the Era light and sophisticated but it has built in military-grade NoiseAssasin 3.0 and wind cancelling technology.<\/p>\n

This technology means that all background noise is eliminated and the incoming call volume is auto-adjusted to the environment; meaning you could be standing in the middle of a noisy building site yet still be able to hear and be heard perfectly.<\/p>\n

The speaker inside the headset is a 10mm speaker, with full HD audio performance, making it Jawbone\u2019s most powerful speaker yet.\u00a0 The Era is also the first headset with built-in accelerometer and MotionX technology.\u00a0 This makes it completely integrated with the MyTALK platform, allowing the headset to function with motion applications, like \u2018TapTap\u2019 to answer phone calls.<\/p>\n

Keep your eye on our Facebook page \u2018Love Your Mobile<\/a>\u2019\u00a0as we\u2019ll be giving away a Jawbone Era this month.<\/p>\n

Mophie Juice Pack Air for iPhone 4<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Mophie Juice Pack Air, is a multi-functional gadget: not only is it a protective form-fitting case; but it houses a powerful 1500mAH battery and enhances the sound quality of the iPhone 4 \u2013 a triple threat some might say.<\/p>\n

Not only that, but the Juice Pack Air also has 500 milliamps fast charge technology, meaning it doesn\u2019t take long for the battery to recharge and allow your iPhone 4 to have practically double the battery life it had before: making it one of the best iPhone 4 accessories<\/a> around.<\/p>\n

To top it off, the iPhone 4 case<\/a> has four LED lights on the bottom which indicate the remaining battery life as well as the time remaining to charge.\u00a0 The Mophie Juice Pack Air more than deserves its place in the\u00a0short-list.<\/p>\n

Griffin<\/strong> Adidas MiCoach Armband<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

This armband is one of the finest around, due to the two giants teaming up to create it: Griffin and Adidas.\u00a0 Both companies are well known for their excellent quality and forward thinking products, so it\u2019s no surprise that the armband has been nominated.<\/p>\n

Compatible with a wide variety of devices the miCoach armband is simple and convenient, yet extremely powerful.\u00a0 It allows users to listen to their music whilst exercising or when teamed up with one of the apps, monitor their fitness and offer training guidance.<\/p>\n

The iPhone 4 armband<\/a> is constructed from ultra-lightweight nylon and has an easily adjustable velcro seal for comfort. It also contains a handy key holder, adding to it\u2019s practicality.<\/p>\n

Even though these gadgets deserve their positions in the shortlist for the Gadget Accessory of the Year, we though that one gadget was missing: the Keycase iPad Folio Deluxe with Bluetooth Keyboard.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the biggest selling iPad accessory to date and has an extremely stylish finish; whilst offering first class protection for your iPad.<\/p>\n

The case itself is made from polyurethane and has a folio look once closed; but the iPad keyboard<\/a> is the star of the show.\u00a0 It\u2019s a full QWERTY keyboard, which features silent keypress technology and is dust and spill proof; perfect for those who intend to use it on the go.<\/p>\n

Battery wise, the keyboard lasts up to a whopping 45 hours off a single charge and has a ten minute auto sleep setting, allowing the battery to last even longer and preventing accidental keystrokes.<\/p>\n

We think it deserved a nomination because of it\u2019s functionality and clever QWERTY keyboard.\u00a0 What gadget would you like to have seen nominated?\u00a0 Let us know by tweeting us @MobileFun<\/a> or tell us on our Facebook page\u00a0Love Your Mobile<\/a>.<\/p>\n
