6 Great iPhone 5S/iPhone 5C Accessories

Apple's release of the iPhone 5S and 5C not only introduced two impressive new smartphones to the world, but brought a new generation of accessories along with them to protect and enhance them. With the holiday season upon us, here are six must-have iPhone 5S and 5C accessories, and a few ways on how to save money when shopping for them:

​Apple iPhone 5S Dock
The iPhone 5 introduced us all to Apple's new Lighting connector – a great advance in charging/data relaying technology, but something that rendered many people's accessories and extra cords useless. They released an official adapter that worked with most accessories last fall, but until the announcement of the iPhone 5S and 5C, users with a Lightning device were without the option of an official Apple charging dock. Now, shoppers can enjoy safely charging their iPhone 5, 5S and 5C on an official dock charger, a sleekly-designed product that locks the iPhone in a sturdy, secure position while charging. When buying one, don't forget to bring a Best Buy promo code with you!
Mophie Juice Pack Plus A
vailable in three different colors, the Morph Juice Pack Plus (compatible with both the iPhone 5, 5S and 5C) is Morph's signature external battery case. It's sleek, slim design protects phones from everyday nicks and scratches with its shockproof band - and provides a lot of extra power, thanks to a battery with 120% the capacity of the iPhone's own (at less than 100% of the retail price, when shopping with a Newegg coupon), adding another 10 hours of talk time and hundreds of standby time.

A Gloves
Touchscreen-friendly winter gloves don't have to be expensive, despite what many retailer's offerings would have one think. A Gloves are an affordable (easily found between $10-15 at most places), work with all ten fingers thanks to their patented – and most importantly, will always keep a smartphone/tablet, even in the coldest months of the year.
Apple TV
A thoroughly underrated device, Apple TV is an extremely affordable option for iPhone users looking to stream music, photos, videos, and even games from their phone screen to their TV. With access to Netflix, MLB.TV, HBO Go, Hulu Plus, and dozens of other services, it's not only a hub to access Apple content on one's HDTV (in full 1080p), but any streaming video service one could imagine. It's a great gift for any Apple-using techie in the family- and a surprisingly affordable one at under $100 - even more when using a Adorama promo code during the holiday shopping season.

Otterbox iPhone 5S/5C
Over the years, we've tested dozens of different iPhone cases for various devices: and time and time again, we come back to the Otterbox line of smartphone cases, offering extreme protection. With multiple case options all offering the same industry-leading protection, there's no wrong choice to choose from in their extensive product line, a perfect gift for the slightly-reckless teenager getting a new iPhone as a gift this winter.
ZAGG Invisible Shield
Most people buy a case for their phone – but many neglect to protect the most important part of their iPhone 5S: the beautiful Retina display. When it comes to screen protection, there's really only one option anyone needs to consider: the ZAGG Invisible Shield. Designed from technology originally developed to protector the blades on military choppers, the Invisible Shield offers maximum protection and screen visibility at an affordable price (especially when shopping with a Best Buy coupon in hand).

A bonus tip: you don't need a receipt to get a replacement Invisible Shield from the kiosk in the local mall. Just bring the phone: the screen is the only receipt one needs – and it's only $5 to replace the screen, even if the old one's been on there for years.
