A phone is a phone is a phone—said no one, ever. While many of us have love/hate relationships with our phones (we’re perpetually preparing to break up with them and are simultaneously fully dependent on them), it’s an undisputed fact: it’s hard—re: impossible—to function in our world today without them. Our phones allow us to work, connect, and communicate. As nice as it may sound to ditch your phone for the day, existing phone-free is a tall order. And if we’re going to give in, we might as well indulge in a few cute phone accessories, right?
During this season of materialistic mania, prioritizing our purchases is a challenging feat. Personally, I’m putting products that blend style and productivity at the top of my list. In an era of inflation, I want to ensure that my buys are design-driven and help streamline my everyday rituals and routines. Enter: cute phone accessories that make charging, handling, and listening to your favorite podcasts all the easier and more enjoyable.
So let’s level up our most important piece of tech—even if you’re still hanging onto your iPhone 8.
