Best accessories for Apple Watch 2024
You own the most popular smartwatch in the world. Now it's time to buy a few accessories to enhance your purchase! The best Apple Watch accessories extend beyond just amazing bands. There are also third-party chargers, travel cases, and other surprises for the Apple Watch Series 7, Apple Watch SE, and many others. Here's a list of some of the best accessories to keep your Apple Watch looking its best.
Multi-use goodness
Here's a three-in-one charger that's practical and beautiful at the same time. You can charge three devices at once: an iPhone 12 or newer, Apple Watch, and AirPods.
Stock up for every season
When Apple Watch arrived, so too did Apple's impressive lineup of Sport Bands. Available in everyday and seasonal colors, the latest collection was designed for the Apple Watch Series 7, although it also works with all previous versions. Made from a custom high-performance fluoroelastomer, the Sport Band is durable, secure, and amazingly soft.
Multi-functional
There's a cool factor behind this 10000mAh MFi Certified multi-device charger that folds up when not in use. Use it to charge your Apple Watch, iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Pencil.
The original
Apple's official Magnetic Charging Dock lets you charge your wearable device in a flat position with its band open or on its side. Connected via the Lightning to USB Cable and Apple 5W USB Power Adapter, the dock uses the same inductive charging connector that comes with your watch.
Pick your favorite color
A fan favorite, the Braided Solo Loop is available in various colors that change each season. In addition, it offers a stretchable design that's ultra-comfortable and easy to slip on and off your wrist. Find your perfect size exclusively on the Apple website.
Early adopter
TwelveSouth's TimePorter was one of the first Apple Watch accessories to arrive, and yes, it stands the test of time. Acting as both a charging case and a stand for your wearable device, the TimePorter has room for an extra watch band or two, a USB charger, and more. For travelers, you can't go wrong with this fantastic accessory that looks great open and closed.
Hear the music
The magical third-generation Apple AirPods is powered by the Apple H1 headphone chip and comes with a MagSafe wireless charging case. AirPods use optical sensors and motion accelerometers to always know when they are in your ears. To adjust the volume, change the song, make a call, or get directions, say, "Hey Siri."
Apple exclusive
Relatively new to Apple's Apple Watch band lineup, the Solo Loop features a unique, stretchable design with zero clasps, buckles, or overlapping parts. Pick the size for you directly on the Apple website, which is the only place to buy them.
Feel the speed
Made exclusively for the Apple Watch Series 7, this Magnetic Fast Charger offers USB-C. With it, your Apple Watch can reach an 80% charge in about 45 minutes.
Travel case
Built with a durable, hard shell, this water-repellent travel case will keep your Apple Watch and its accessories safe and secure. Use it to carry your Apple Watch, cords, bands, and much more.
Classic style
The von Holzhausen Watch Band Portfolio neatly displays, organizes, and transports your Apple watch bands and accessories. It is made from Technik-Leather, which is 100% animal-free and sustainable performance fabric that's durable and easy to clean. Inside it's lined with soft microfiber made from recycled plastic water bottles.
New look
The second-generation official Leather Band from Apple features handcrafted Roux Granada leather made in France. The strap elegantly wraps around the wrist and magically attaches with flexible molded magnets that gently flex to help maintain a secure, comfortable fit throughout the day.
