Waterfield Essential Backpack ($189)
I never knew I could love a backpack this much! It features a special compartment for your MacBook with a Velcro strap to keep your device safe and sound. Though there are lots of pockets and the main chamber has plenty of room, the thin profile allows for comfortable use even in crowded areas or while bicycling. It is lightweight and has ergonomic shoulder straps padded with moisture-wicking mesh. It feels great to wear! The blend of premium materials, thoughtful design, and attention to detail in this American-made backpack make it a must-have.
Razer USB-C GaN Charger ($179.99)
POWER UP!
If you’re looking to quickly charge your MacBook, iPhone, and iPad at the same time, look no further! I am impressed with how powerful this thing is while also being compact. This charger features GaN (Gallium Nitride) technology, meaning it can deliver a high-power output without an increase in physical size. It charges my computer faster than Mac’s own charger, even while charging my iPhone and iPad Pro simultaneously. The quality and design are top-notch. This is an essential accessory for heavy users of Apple products with multiple devices to charge. I keep it in my laptop bag at all times.

LOCK YOUR APPLE ID WITH A PHYSICAL KEY
Security keys are physical items that can be used to verify your identity when logging into your Apple ID. If you are planning to use security keys, make sure you have at least two. Apple requires you use two, so that if you lose one, you will have another as a backup. At iPhone Life, a brand we recommend is the Yubico Yubikey 5Ci ($75).

WHY I DITCHED MY APPLE WATCH FOR THE OURA RING
Every morning for the past three months, I wake up wearing a shiny gold ring on my right pointer finger. If you look closely, you can see beams of red or green light leaking out the sides as it scans my heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature. I roll out of bed, grab my phone, and open the Oura app.
THE BEST APPS OF 2024
One of the most frequent questions I’m asked by friends and family is “Which app should I download?” With millions of options out there, choosing which apps to use is a task that stumps many people. Will a free version overload you with ads? Is the paid version worth it?
OPINION: I HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE WITH APPLE VISION PRO, AND IT SUCKS.
Color me a virtual-reality optimist. Alongside writing for iPhone Life, I’m a video game developer, 3D artist, and sci-fi author. I own a Meta Quest 3 and use it all the time to play games and view 3D models as I work.
