1. Apple MagSafe iPhone Wallet
The first-generation Apple iPhone wallet debuted with the iPhone 12. It attached to the iPhone with MagSafe, Apple's magnetic tech for securing chargers and accessories to the phone's back. The latest iteration boasts new colors and Find My compatibility. If the wallet detaches from your phone for more than one minute, you get a push notification marking its last connected location, which should hopefully aid you in finding it.

If you have an aspiring TikTok star in your life, or someone who's always on the go and trying to capture their adventures, this 3-in-1 gimbal, wireless charger, and tripod makes the perfect gift.
The PowerVision S1 holds smartphones via a magnetic phone case or attachment, which is sold with the device and doesn't require MagSafe. Once attached, the gimbal can stabilize your camera — which eliminates shaky video footage, even if you're moving while capturing it — and be propped up on a tiny tripod. Its body can also wirelessly charge your phone.
The whole thing connects to an app that allows the device to use artificial intelligence to track people and objects to keep them in frame, and allows for gesture control to capture photos and videos.

This is a wireless charger you get someone who is truly elite. The Volonic Valet 3 is a customizable wireless charging pad that's made of luxurious materials. You can choose between fashion-grade alcantara or the same kind of leather used in Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Porsches.
The whole thing can be personally designed, from color and material to cord length and logo style.
It uses Aira FreePower technology, which allows up to three devices to be charged in any position on the charger. This is the charger for the bougie, but perhaps also the charger for those who haven't upgraded to a phone with MagSafe. Just know you'll be spending big bucks on it!

For those who rely on their iPhone's Maps app to get literally anywhere, this car mount makes looking at your phone while driving a lot safer and easier.
It mounts to your car vent, so no adhesive or suction cups necessary. An iPhone 12 or up can attach via MagSafe, which makes the process of clicking your phone in and out of the mount much quicker than traditional car phone mounts. And being attached to the vent means nothing is blocking your windshield. You can still see your iPhone for necessary directions, but it won't be so distracting while on the road.

Ok, this gift is technically more about AirPods, but most iPhone users have those too, so it's a safe bet. AirPods are great and all, but they've made flying a real hassle because most planes only offer audio jacks instead of Bluetooth compatibility. Instead of remembering to bring or buy wired headphones the next time you fly, this nifty little gadget plugs into the audio jack and wirelessly transmits sound to your AirPods. Until planes get the Bluetooth glow-up, this device is a must-have for any frequent flier.
