We saw some great products for Apple users after a week of wearing our feet to the bone at CES! Here’s what we like the most that we got the chance to check out in person at the show.
While we found a lot of future-looking tech, everything we rounded up will be shipping soon.
Specifically, we’ll be looking at accessories for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. We won’t cover smart home though, but we’ll be talking about that soon.
Lexar
Storage purveyor Lexar had plenty of storage solutions on display at CES. Everything from metal SD cards to fast NVMe media for gaming consoles.
For Apple users, Lexar is launching a new SSD bundle with its SL500 drive. This new bundle includes a silicone cover with an integrated lanyard.
The new Lexar SSD cover adds MagSafe support for iPhones
On top of adding protection, this silicone sleeve also has a series of MagSafe magnets. This lets the drive magnetically connect to your iPhone.
Now, your SL500 can be used with your Mac or can be used in the field to record ProRes video directly from your iPhone.
The bundle is shipping soon, starting at $149 for the 1TB option, with capacities available up to 4TB.
Aukey
There were tons of different charging solutions from Aukey to check out when we visited the booth, but the new 6-in-1 MagFusion charger is what caught our eye.
You can charge six devices with the new Aukey MagFusion Titan
This charger has two magnetic adjustable 15W Qi2 chargers on top with a fast charging Apple Watch puck and a Qi charger for your headphones down below.
Around back you’ll find a USB-C port and a USB-A port for wired charging. We saw a pre-production model that had dual USB-C ports, which we would have frankly preferred.
The 6-in-1 MagFusion charger launches later in 2025 for an unannounced price.
RollingSquare
We saw a lot of Find My-enabled devices this year, including the new AirCard Pro from RollingSquare. This 2.2mm thick card is made of metal with hardened glass on the front and back.
RollingSquare AirCard Pro is wirelessly rechargeable and works with Find My
What’s good about the updated version of this Find My tracker is that it supports wireless charging. That way you don’t need a proprietary charger or have to recycle the card once the battery dies.
It’s very easy to charge while on the go using any Qi or Qi2 charger. It also has a built-in speaker, a QR for a digital ID, and left behind alerts.
A Google Find My Device version also launched in a white colorway while the Apple model is black. It starts shipping later in January 2025 for $39.
Ugreen Thunderbolt 5 dock
After Thunderbolt 5 launched in 2024, we’re seeing more and more devices hit the market. This includes Green’s new Revodok Max 2131 docking station.
Ugreen is among the first to come to market with a Thunderbolt 5 dock
This dock has three Thunderbolt 5 ports for connectivity, alongside four USB-A ports (two USB 3.2 and two USB 3.0) and a USB-C port with USB 3.2 speeds. A front-facing USB-C port also offers 140W of USB PD.
Other I/O includes a 2.5Gb Ethernet port, SD and microSD card readers, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It will pair well with Apple’s latest MacBook Pro line.
The brand plans to bring it to market in March 2025. Pricing has not yet been disclosed.
Ecoflow batteries
This year for CES, Ecoflow launched a new line of portable power that is much smaller than its typical backup solutions. We saw sleek new MagSafe Battery Packs, complete with integrated stands and 5K or 10K capacities.
The power station can expand and has a removable MagSafe battery pack
What we really liked though was the Ecoflow River 3 Plus Wireless. This is a larger power station that’s great for taking with you outside that can expand based on your needs.
It’s part of the River 3 line and can stack atop additional batteries to increase its overall power. The top also has a Qi2 charger for 15W of wireless power.
Best of all, that top Qi2 charger can be removed and used as a magnetic battery pack and when you place it back in the dock, it recharges automatically via pogo pins.
Pricing and release date have not been announced yet.
OhSnap Mcon controller
The Mcon controller first hit Kickstarter in the winter of 2024 but we got to try out out for ourselves during CES. It’s a portable gaming controller that magnetically connects to the whole back of your iPhone.
The Mcon controller works with MagSafe and feels great to use
Unlike other controllers, it’s intended to be very portable and fit into your pocket. It’s just the size of your iPhone with collapsable grips that spin out when needed.
Right now it’s still in the early stages but they say they hope to receive MFi certification ahead of its launch later this year.
Satechi Mac mini hub
If you have one of the New Mac mini machines, you’ll be very interested in the new Mac mini M4 Stand & Hub with SSD enclosure that is soon to launch.
The new Satechi Mac mini hub adds USB ports to your tiny desktop computer
They’ve almost perfectly matched Apple’s anodized aluminum color and it sits just below the tiny desktop computer. There’s a cutout to access the bottom power button and it connects with a single USB-C cable in the back.
On the front are three USB-A ports and an SD card reader. We’d have preferred more USB-C but Satechi says since Apple removed the USB-A, they felt an obligation to return them for those that needed them.
You can pick one up for yourself in March for $100.
Moft Find My wallet
Known for their origami-like stands and MagSafe accessories, Moft has a new wallet coming to market. This one features built-in support for Apple Find My.
This wallet supports Apple Find My and wireless charging
It can hold two cards at once and folds back into a handy kickstand that works vertically or horizontally. Plus, it can recharge with any Qi charger and doesn’t require any proprietary connector.
Personally, we’d have preferred the capacity was upped to at least three cards, but two cards is fairly standard in the space.
Moft is targeting a May release with a $49.99 price tag.
Laifen toothbrush
Finally, Laifen has continued to borrow design cues from Apple with its latest smart toothbrush. The packaging and even the charger look carbon copied from Apple.
Laifen now has a new titanium toothbrush too alongside stainless steel and plastic
Now, the new toothbrush comes in a stunning titanium color that matches Apple’s use on iPhone and Apple Watch. Since the launch in 2024, they’ve also released new accessories like a travel case and replacement head holder.
The new titanium color is available now for $159, though as of January 13, 2025, it’s sold out.
