21 Perfect Gifts for the Apple Addict
They've got the iPhone, the Watch, the iPad Pro, the iMac, the Apple TV, the mac.com email address. They've got the new MacBook Pro too, and they don't even mind all the dongles! The Apple devotee already has all the Apple stuff and can be tough to shop for. (Definitely DO NOT get them a Samsung Gear VR.) But if you buy them one of these 21 amazing gifts that connect to, charge, or beautify their beloved hardware, they'll love you for it.
Designed by Apple in California
Apple put out a book this year that's sure to be a hit with anyone who appreciates the company's approach to product design. It's packed with 450 photos of every Apple product between 1998's Bondi blue iMac and last year's Pencil. The hardbound collector's volume comes in two sizes—the small one is $200 but the big one is $300. Nobody ever said Apple stuff was cheap. Get it at participating Apple stores, or at Apple.com.
AppleBookArc for MacBook Pro
This $50 dock turns any MacBook Pro into a desktop workstation. The computer slots in vertically with all of the cables running out the back (and out of sight). It utilizes the MacBook Pro's "Closed clamshell" mode—connect a display, keyboard, all your other peripherals and it's like you're using a full desktop rig. Just without the bulk or the mess.

Logitech Create
Logitech has been the king of the iPad keyboard case almost as long as the tablet has been around—and it's even better than Apple at mobile typing accessories. Its new $130 Create is made for the 9.7-inch iPad Pro. It has a slot for the Pencil in the nook behind the screen, and the keyboard is backlit and very comfy to type on. Best of all, it's powered by the iPad through the Smart Connector, so you never have to charge it.
LogitechNative Union's gorgeous $60 iPhone dock features a silicone base bisected by a slim aluminum plate. It looks like the business even before you slot your iPhone into it. It comes with a braided, color-matched Lightning cable as well.

Beats Solo3 Wireless
Ever since Apple bought the Beats headphone brand, it's been making improvements. The freshest fruit of the marriage is this new $300 on-ear headset. Beats have never sounded this good or looked this good (there are a bunch of colors so you can get all matchy-matchy with your loved one's iPhone). Inside is Apple's new W1 chip, which makes pairing a snap and extends battery life to a bonkers 40-plus hours.
Beats By DreByrd & Belle iPad Pro Sleeve
These gorgeous felt sleeves for iPad Pro start at $48. There's a slot for the Pencil, plus a Lightning cable or a microfiber cloth. Choose from two shades of gray for the felt, and choose a thickness that accommodates a bare iPad or one with an Apple-made cover. So pretty, so soft.

Griffin BreakSafe Magnetic USB-C Power Cable
Maybe you heard, but the new MacBook Pro ditched the genius MagSafe power cable for a regular dumb ol' USB-C port. Griffin's $40 cable brings back the magnetic magic. There are many dongles for the new MacBook Pro, but this is the one it needs the most.
Griffin TechnologyApple Watch Nike+
Is your Apple-lover swole? Or maybe aspires to be? This new, sportier version of the Apple Watch Series 2 is hyped up by Nike with a special band and a custom watch face. Starts at $369.

BlueLounge Backpack
This $150 roll-top pack is made for the Apple faithful. It has a smart, minimal design that Apple fans will love. The padded laptop sleeve inside the spacious main compartment fits MacBooks up to 15 inches, and there's a dedicated sleeve just for the iPad. And of course, lots of stash pockets for all those dongles! (Sorry sorry but it's just too easy isn't it?)
BlueLoungeClockwork Synergy 2-Piece Heavy NATO Strap
A NATO strap on a watch is cool. A NATO strap on the Apple Watch is extra cool. This $30 option, which comes in a variety of classic NATO color combinations, is super-extra-dope.
Clockwork Synergy
Native Union Dock for Apple Watch
Charging the Apple Watch can be a little awkward if you just use the disk that comes in the box. That's why a beautiful dock like this $60 option is essential. It sits two ways: flat, with the Watch resting on top; or on its side with the Watch hanging on the knob. Makes you want to touch it, right?
Native UnionInvisibleShield Sapphire Defense
Clumsy phone owners need this hybrid glass iPhone screen protector. It protects against chips, impacts, and scratches, works with phone cases, and is more persistent than AppleCare. $50.

Solo Bradford Briefcase Messenger
This smart $60 briefcase holds a MacBook Pro, an iPad, all the necessary chargers, and at least four copies of WIRED magazine. It converts into a messenger bag for cycling.
soloWaterField Designs MacBook SleeveCase
How about a smart $69 case? It fits all of the most recent MacBooks, including the Air, the "MacBook One," and the new Pro with the Touch Bar. You can get it in either horizontal or vertical orientation, and it comes in either latte-colored waxed canvas or black ballistic nylon. You can even add a strap for a little extra. Awesome, sleek protection for that aluminum chassis.
