Although you can start using the iPhone immediately after purchase, you may want to upgrade with some accessories for the device. Your iPhone will come with a basic set of accessories: dock, USB cable, stereo headset and polishing cloth. Here is how you can buy other iPhone accessories to take advantage of all that the mobile phone has to offer.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Decide on the iPhone accessories you wish to purchase. Most people purchase a Bluetooth-enabled headset with their iPhone. You might also want a car charger and a case to protect your iPhone.
Step2
Buy iPhone accessories directly from Apple. When you shop for iPhone accessories through Apple, you're ensuring you get compatible devices of the highest quality.
Step3
Replace standard iPhone accessories with upgraded models. Although your iPhone comes with a standard dock, you may want to get better docking options. You can purchase the iPhone Dual Dock to set your Bluetooth and iPhone.
Step4
Save on iPhone accessories by shopping around for the best price. Although Apple brand accessories ensure compatibility, you may want to save money by getting generic versions. Check out the selection of iPhone accessories on the online retailer Cool iGear.

Tips & Warnings

  • Many iPod accessories work with the iPhone as well. If the device does not work with the iPhone, you'll get an error message when attempting to plug it in.
  • Apple has a "Works with iPhone" logo available to help shoppers purchase the right accessories for their iPhones. This also means Apple has certified the product.
