**Apple Accessories Review: 11 Must-Have Items Under $250**

As an Apple enthusiast, I'm always on the lookout for great accessories that can enhance my productivity and overall experience with my devices. In this article, I'll be reviewing 11 of my favorite Apple accessories that are available under the $250 price point. From noise-cancelling headphones to a portable storage solution, I've got you covered.

**Bose QuietComfort Ultras: A Great Alternative to AirPods Pro**

One of my go-to accessories is the Bose QuietComfort Ultras, which offer exceptional noise-cancellation and sound quality. However, these headphones are pricey at $429, making them less portable than other options. The Apple AirPods Pro, on the other hand, offer similar performance at a fraction of the cost – just $199 for the USBC case version. With its improved adapted noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro is perfect for flights, long editing sessions, or even commuting.

**Apple Magic Trackpad: A Game-Changer for Gesture-Based Computing**

Another essential accessory for me is the Apple Magic Trackpad. Available in black and white versions, both retail for $139 and $109 respectively. While the color options may not be a deciding factor, the trackpad itself is an outstanding product that offers seamless gesture-based computing on Mac OS, iPad OS, or even Windows devices. With its lightning charging port (for now), it's still an excellent option for those looking to upgrade their desktop experience.

**Orbit Key Nest: A Versatile and Stylish Storage Solution**

Last but not least, I want to highlight the Orbit Key Nest product, which has been gaining attention in recent months. This sleek storage solution is perfect for carrying miscellaneous items on-the-go, such as toiletries, SD cards, and chargers. The top portion of the device also features a wireless charger, making it an excellent desk accessory. With its multiple functions, color options, and protective design, this product is an absolute must-have for anyone looking to stay organized.

**The Nomad Base 1 Max: A Portable Power Bank at an Affordable Price**

While not strictly an Apple accessory, the Nomad Base 1 Max is a fantastic portable power bank that's worth mentioning. Available at just $105, it's an affordable option for those looking to keep their devices charged on-the-go. This compact power bank offers two USB-A ports and one USB-C port, making it perfect for charging multiple devices simultaneously.

**Other Accessories Under $250**

While the previous accessories were my top picks, there are several other great options available under the $250 price point. These include:

* Apple Pencil (starts at $99)

* Apple Magic Keyboard (starts at $119)

* Anker PowerCore Fusion (starts at $69)

* Logitech Crayon (starts at $59)

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, these 11 Apple accessories are must-haves for anyone looking to upgrade their productivity and overall experience with their devices. From noise-cancelling headphones to a portable storage solution, there's something on this list for everyone. Whether you're a Mac or iOS user, these accessories are sure to enhance your device experience and provide great value for the price.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enall right everybody so you saw the title so you probably know what you're getting yourself into here but we already had videos covering the best Apple accessories under $30 under 50 under 100 and now we're kind of increasing that budget all the way to $250 so in this video everything should be kind of in the premium tier everything should be kind of like a kind of final gift or one big gift that you want to hand off to yourself or hand off to a loved one or whatever the case may be so in this video I want to go over 11 different products that I've been using on a daily basis that's under that $250 price point and it will range from like that $250 all the way down to about $110 and giving you guys a good spectrum of not only price but also product categories so without further Ado let's hop right into this video so the first two items I'm going to mention are going to be kind of a desk setup item by company called Johan and this is a new company that I've been using for the last couple of weeks now and they specialize in making Ultra Premium wood accessories for your Apple products and your desk setup first off their MacBook stand which will work with pretty much any new Macbook all the way down to like a 2012 Macbook so the new 16-in Macbook Pro 14-inch MacBook Pro as well as the new 15-inch MacBook Air the 13-inch MacBook Air it'll fit any of those laptops and what it basically is is just a stand for your laptop to be put maybe to the left or to the right of your actual monitor or to be used as a kind of better posture stand when you are using your laptop for hours on end and I don't know what kind of Wizardry they use or what kind of physics they're kind of going through because this wooden stand doesn't really stay balanced on its own it needs the weight of the actual MacBook in order to fully balance this thing out and I think this absolutely amazing because it's very simple very easy to use it's l just one piece of wood that you slide your actual laptop into and then magically it is now fully balanced and you don't have to worry about anything for something that's kind of only one piece and the fact that it's balancing all together you still feel a sense of sturdiness like you don't think that the laptop is going to fall over you don't think you're going to knock it over and it is very easy to use take off and actually put back in and you can see that in my setup I have it off to the left of my BenQ Monitor and I'm using as a secondary display using my BenQ monitor as my main display and I absolutely love this new setup that I have and all of the products come in either a walnut finish or an oak finish and I decided to go with the oak one because I like that lighter color but if you want a darker wood color they do have Walnut as I mentioned and also even though it doesn't fully close all the way down it still supports clamshell mode because it closes enough to be able to actually have this thing in clamshell mode so again that is by a company called Johan if you know somebody that enjoys those high quality kind of wooden Goods this is a perfect gift for anybody that's looking for a desk setup and then I also want to bring up their headphone stand which is very very simple it's just one piece of wood also I got it in that oak finish and I use it to hold my bow QC Ultras to kind of just have there in a place that I can just easily grab whenever I need to and again that is by a company called Johan and both of those products are $199 and I'll link everything down below for you guys to check out now I do want to continue with some other desk accessories that kind of put all this together for me and right underneath my monitor shelf I have the ts4 Cal digit Thunderbolt 4 Hub and I know that that one's on the $400 price point but I do want to recommend it's kind of little brother or little sister which is the TS3 plus which is pretty much gets you 95% of the way there for 24 $49 currently right now and I think normally it's $279 or even $300 and this thing is an absolute Beast having 15 total ports that you can use and again this is a thunderbolt 3 Hub so on the rear of the cigit TS3 plus you get two Thunderbolt 3 ports that one goes to the actual host supporting up to 85 watts of power pass through which is more than enough to charge any of these Mac laptops whether it is a 13-in MacBook Air or the 16in MacBook Pro you also have a 1.2 display port which is nice to have you have three usba 3.1 gen 1 ports which are great because they do Port fast speed in terms of data transfer you also have a USB 3.1 USBC Port that supports Gen 2 transfer speeds a digital optical out as well as a gigabit Ethernet port on the rear and then on the front of it you have a very easy to access SD card slot as well as an additional USBC and usba a port and also audio in and audio outjack so if you guys need a USB C Hub or a thunderbolt 3 Hub that's going to support all of your devices whether it is multim monitor whether it is just support one MacBook you have a bunch of peripherals this is going to be the way to go because it's going to last you a long time because Cal digit is one of those world renowned companies that's going to be able to support these accessories for a long time then on top of the actual desk itself I have the ulti ultra deskmat which is by a company called journey and I've mentioned their Alti desk map before but the reason this one is the ultra is because it does support mag safe certified charging so it supports that 15 watts of fast charging on your iPhone but but if you look at it from the top down it looks like a actual leather desk mat but if you actually flip it over it is a 2on one meaning that you have a felt top as well that can be interchangeably used and also in between those two layers so you have your leather layer and then your actual felt layer in between them you can use that to kind of Hide Away some single pieces of paper some brochures some letters that you still need access to but you want them out of sight and out of mind for that time being and then on the left or right hand side depending on what orientation you want to put this in you have an actual wireless charging slab that supports like I mentioned earlier 15 W mag safe certified charging as well as a 5 wat charger for your airpods pro or any other wireless charging accessory that you do want to charge up what I like about this is that this is modular so you can kind of disconnect it because it does attach via magnet so I think for6 $69 to have all this in one product is an amazing thing to see and then one of the newest additions to my desk setup is The Nomad base 1 Max now this is a 3in1 charger by a company called Nomad and the base One Max what it does is it also has a 15 wat mag safe certified charger as well as being able to charge your airpods and your Apple watch at a decent speed not the ultra fast speed but at least you have the mag safe certified charger on there to be able to charge your iPhone at 15 watts now this one is normally $150 but right now it's on sale for $105 and it is by far probably the most premium 3in1 charer than I've ever used just the weight alone of it and the heft of it is absolutely amazing because it makes you feel like you're not going to just rip off the entire charger when you're pulling off your iPhone now I will say that this is a lay flat charger so it will not support standby mode if that's something that you absolutely want this one will not support it unfortunately and now the next accessory I want to speak about is sitting right on top of my BenQ monitor which is the BenQ Halo Bar light bar which is absolutely unreal like I used to think that these things were kind of gimmicky because I thought of course it's going to leave a glare on your screen but that is the purpose of this type of lamp it's to be able to get light directly onto the screen without actually adding any glare to it as well as being able to move around to be able to get some light directly on your desk matat or right in front of you so let's say you're typing at night it's not going to be a hindrance on your eyes it's not going to be a hindrance on kind of squinting and being able to see exactly what you're typing but you're able to see fully exactly what's on your desk in front of you no matter what time of day it is and this Halo Bar has everything that you would ever need so all you do is you attach it to your BenQ monitor or any monitor for that matter plug it in Via usba and then it also includes a wireless control Hub which you're able to then control the light sensitivity whether it is a cooler color or a warmer color being able to decide how bright it is as well as adding favorites and things like that and it's completely wireless it is powered by AAA batteries and it is included in the box so you will have to replace them at some point but it is nice to know that you're not relying on a rechargeable battery to be able to use this thing and use it very well and I love how the puck is actually very Hefty and very easy to use it makes it feel very futuristic because you just kind of turn the knob a little bit and it brightens and then it dims absolutely love this Halo Bar could not recommend it enough especially as somebody who at first thought it was going to be a little bit gimmicky so I know that that was very desk setup Focus but I want to kind of migrate to some other productss as well that are under that $250 price point the next one I want to mention is actually the iPad magic keyboard now I kind of have two different pricing points for this one because Amazon especially here in the US has a lot of these magic keyboards on the renewed status which again just means certified refurbished directly through Amazon you can probably find them refurbished through the Apple Store as well but through Amazon for $150 you can get yourself an 11-in magic keyboard for $170 you can get yourself a 12.9 in magic keyboard which is literally half the price of the magic keyboard when it's brand new and I know that the magic keyboard is expensive and I know that there is rumors that a new one will be coming out in q1 of next year but I still think that the magic keyboard even four years later is the absolute best accessory to ever be released by Apple for any product because it fully transforms what your iPad can be because it just absolutely transforms your iPad from a tablet into a full-on laptop and computer replacement in my personal opinion but then also Amazon is having some deals on some brand new ones for the 11in particular and I believe it's $260 if you want to go brand new directly from Amazon for the 11in one so I'll include both links down below for you guys to check out but certified renewed I actually got my first ever iPad Pro from Amazon as a certified renewed 2018 iPad Pro just something to uh take into account and I absolutely love going refurbished when I can and now these next few products are actual Apple products because under that $250 price point you can start to get into that category which is an actual physical Apple product and people love to be gifted and to actually gift Apple products in general so the next one I want to mention is actually the Apple watch SE the Apple watch SE in the 44mm variant on Amazon is is actually $229 which I think is an absolute steal the Apple watch SE will give you pretty much all the functionality of any other Apple watch that's currently being sold by Apple but just a little bit more watered down but it gets you pretty much 95% of the way there to all the stuff that maybe something like the Apple Watch series 9 has already which I think is a must for anybody that is in the Apple ecosystem so if you're looking to gift an Apple Watch definitely go the Apple watch SE rout I believe the 40mm one which is the smaller one is $199 so for under $200 you can get a brand new Apple watch not a refurbished one not an old one but a brand new one that can be paired with your iPhone and then you'll have that experience which is an amazing one another amazing deal going on is for the airpods pro Gen 2 and this is the USBC version right now they're on Amazon for $199 instead of that $249 price point that Apple likes to sell it as and again airpods Pro if you're in the Apple ecosystem is my favorite type of noise canceling headphones and for the size and for the price it's very hard to come close to what Apple's currently doing in that form factor yes you can see behind me that I have the Bose QC Ultras which are amazing noise cancelling headphones but those are $429 and they're overy your headphones a little less portable those are more for like long flights that I like to use or for maybe long editing sessions but the airpods pro even for those flights and for those long editing sections and for the subway is more than enough especially with that new adapted noise cancellation which has gotten better and better over time so airpods Pro for $199 with that USBC case is a game changer in my opinion definitely check that one out and now the last Apple product I'm going to mention is the Apple Magic trackpad they currently have the Black Version which I think is the cooler one I have the white one the more original one but the black color version or the space gray color version is at $139 and I believe the white version is at $109 they're literally the same exact product just different colorways so it depends on how much you want to spend to get that different space gray color way but the magic Trackpad is still the best trackpad out in the market especially as an accessory because you're able to kind of mimic exactly what apple is intending on the laptop side and be able to have it in a desktop form factor for gestures both on Mac OS and iPad OS so if you know somebody that's looking for magic Trackpad right now could be a great way to kind of get involved even though it still charges lightning I don't know when Apple's going to switch to USBC but it does charge via lightning which is something to consider and then the final product I want to bring up is by a company called orbit key I've mentioned their desk map before in the past but this is the orbit key Nest product this thing has been out for a little while now but I got the new Ash colorway which is absolutely beautiful and this is pretty much just a catch all to be able to carry all of your miscellaneous things for me for instance when I'm on the go I use it for all my toiletries so I got my toothpaste my toothbrush and things like that but also have some small Tech accessories like SD cards and a loose charger and a USBC cable and all those little dongles that go from usba a to USBC just so I have that on me at all times and what I like about this is that it's multifunctional so first off it actually looks amazing it fits in pretty much any aesthetic whether it is at your desk or in your backpack and then also the top portion of it which acts as the cover also is another catw because it has a little dividend there but also has a wireless charger built right into it so if you want to use this as a desk charger you absolutely can now this I believe is an absolutely amazing gift because you can pretty much turn this Nest orbit key into whatever you want whether it is maybe a cash off for your keys at the front door to put it on your desk as a charger or like I mentioned earlier use it as an on the-go storage and put it in your backpack because it does protect everything nicely and it has these kind of velcro organizers in there which makes organization even that much better so that is the orbit key Nest absolutely love that thing and that one right now is I believe $19 definitely a great gift for anybody looking to stay organized so that was 11 Apple accessories that I'm going to recommend under that $250 price point like I said we have stuff like the magic keyboard really pushing that $250 ceiling but then we have some other ones like The Nomad base 1 Max that is at the kind of lower level at the $105 price point so depending on what you want and what you need and what you want to gift out there should be something for everybody in this video but that will just about do it for this series there might be one more video kind of like a baller Edition where there's no budget whatsoever maybe we'll include monitors and laptops and things like that leave a comment down below if that's something that you want to see maybe some recommendations on that price point because maybe maybe you're gifting a laptop to somebody and you want to know which one is the right laptop to go with but that's going to do it for this video Everybody if you made it to the end of this one leave it little dolphin in the comments down below so I know you made it to the end and if you guys want to watch some more Mac OS iOS or iPad OS videos click on one of these right here and until next time I'm Fernando and I'm out of here everybody peace comment what your favorite accessor from this video and maybe there's some other ones under 250 that I should talk about next peaceall right everybody so you saw the title so you probably know what you're getting yourself into here but we already had videos covering the best Apple accessories under $30 under 50 under 100 and now we're kind of increasing that budget all the way to $250 so in this video everything should be kind of in the premium tier everything should be kind of like a kind of final gift or one big gift that you want to hand off to yourself or hand off to a loved one or whatever the case may be so in this video I want to go over 11 different products that I've been using on a daily basis that's under that $250 price point and it will range from like that

toothpaste my toothbrush and things like that but also have some small Tech accessories like SD cards and a loose charger and a USBC cable and all those little dongles that go from usba a to USBC just so I have that on me at all times and what I like about this is that it's multifunctional so first off it actually looks amazing it fits in pretty much any aesthetic whether it is at your desk or in your backpack and then also the top portion of it which acts as the cover also is another catw because it has a little dividend there but also has a wireless charger built right into it so if you want to use this as a desk charger you absolutely can now this I believe is an absolutely amazing gift because you can pretty much turn this Nest orbit key into whatever you want whether it is maybe a cash off for your keys at the front door to put it on your desk as a charger or like I mentioned earlier use it as an on the-go storage and put it in your backpack because it does protect everything nicely and it has these kind of velcro organizers in there which makes organization even that much better so that is the orbit key Nest absolutely love that thing and that one right now is I believe $19 definitely a great gift for anybody looking to stay organized so that was 11 Apple accessories that I'm going to recommend under that $250 price point like I said we have stuff like the magic keyboard really pushing that $250 ceiling but then we have some other ones like The Nomad base 1 Max that is at the kind of lower level at the $105 price point so depending on what you want and what you need and what you want to gift out there should be something for everybody in this video but that will just about do it for this series there might be one more video kind of like a baller Edition where there's no budget whatsoever maybe we'll include monitors and laptops and things like that leave a comment down below if that's something that you want to see maybe some recommendations on that price point because maybe maybe you're gifting a laptop to somebody and you want to know which one is the right laptop to go with but that's going to do it for this video Everybody if you made it to the end of this one leave it little dolphin in the comments down below so I know you made it to the end and if you guys want to watch some more Mac OS iOS or iPad OS videos click on one of these right here and until next time I'm Fernando and I'm out of here everybody peace comment what your favorite accessor from this video and maybe there's some other ones under 250 that I should talk about next peace\n"
