In case you missed it, this tech company called Apple you might have heard of unveiled some new phones last night.

In what was the most anticipated product reveal of the year, Apple unveiled its brand new iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR.

With the price of the iPhone XS Max reaching nearly £1,500 for the 512GB version, you’re going to want to make sure you’re protecting that little piece of machinery, with a solid case. Accessories like a stylish portable charger and some wireless headphones might come in handy too.

Here’s a roundup of the all-new accessories for the new iPhone XS range.

iPhone XS cases

Greenwich: for design

For a high-end phone, you need a high-end case. Greenwich cases, designed in London’s very own Greenwich, are made with the finest European leather and come in an array of colours.

There’s a built-in card holder for functionality and each case is lined with a carbon fibre plating which is so strong it could stop a shotgun bullet getting through.

Always handy.

Prices start from £129 from Greenwich.Design

Mous: for protection

You’ve brought a brand new shiny iPhone and you definitely do not want to break it, but you also want it to look good at the same time.

That’s the thinking behind Mous’s iPhone cases. The start-up created its own AiroShock high impact material to ensure that you can literally throw your phone to the ground and it will not break on impact.

Mous has five cases available for the iPhone XS, XS Max and the XR, but it’s the Shell design that we have our eyes on.

The case also comes with a free screen protector.

iPhone XS chargers

mophie: for portable charging

Last night, Apple didn’t reveal the battery size for the new iPhones, only that you will get either an extra 30 or 90 minutes charge on last year’s phones, which was rather ambiguous.

If you’re looking for a back-up portable charger so you never run out of juice, go for the mophie portable chargers Apple sell exclusively on their website.

The chargers come built-in with the iPhone Lightning cable too, so you don’t need to carry extra wires around and you can choose from three colours: slate, grey and black.

Proporta: for wireless charging

Considering Apple didn’t reveal an ETA for its own wireless charger last night, Apple fans will have to look elsewhere for their no-wires fix. Proporta, for instance, is launching a travel-friendly wireless charger.

It comes in all black, and is built from lightweight materials so it's sleek and smart.

The charger also comes with a removable stand, so you can charge your phone on a flat surface, in landscape mode or up-right.

iPhone XS wireless headphones

Beats: for matching your iPhone

Another cheeky update at yesterday’s Apple event was that iPhones will no longer be shipping with the headphone jack dongle included. Sure you can buy one for £9 but it’s probably best you finally get some wireless headphones.

Apple-owned Beats has released two new Solo3 Wireless headphones in Satin Gold and Satin Silver to match the new iPhone XS colours.

If you’re going for an iPhone XR, then you can pick up urBeats3 earphones in yellow, blue and coral, to match the XR’s new bright colours.

Sennheiser: for the ultimate wireless experience

If you’re not a fan of Beats and spend a lot of time travelling, then it’s the Sennheiser PXC 550 wireless headphones you need.

The over-ear headphones are light enough not to feel heavy during periods of long usage, and come with up to 30 hours of battery life so they won't need charging often.

This is all packaged up in a slick design, with Sennheiser’s trademark high-quality sound and hybrid adaptive noise cancellations meaning you can’t hear anything else apart from what’s playing.
