If you just bought an iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Pro, congratulations! Apple Intelligence isn't here yet, but your new iPhone comes with some stellar camera and battery upgrades. But an iPhone by itself is an incomplete package. To make the most of it, you'll want to get accessories, such as a case, battery packs, headphones, and a fast charging adaptor.
As it happens, a deal like October Prime Day is the perfect time to pick up some new accessories for a new iPhone. Here are some of my favorite sales happening now:
The FineWoven case is no more, thank god. But if you want an official case, Apple's Silicone Case is your best bet. Amazon is discounting the iPhone 16's case from $49 to $38.99. A $10 saving on a brand new Apple-branded case is not bad at all. You can also save on a iPhone 16 Pro silicone case, but it isn't a Prime Day deal.
Spigen has many different cases on sale, but their flagship case is the one with the deepest discount. The Spigen Ultra Hybrid T is a transparent, lightweight case, with a unique feature. It actually has a button for the Camera Control instead of an empty space, so even your half-taps and swipe gestures are registered perfectly. The case sells for $54.99, but it's currently down to $24.43.

ESR's new screen protector kit comes with an easy application model. You put your phone face down on the plastic structure, pull the tab, and the tempered glass applies itself. It's usually $16.99, but the three-pack is available on sale for $13.59.

Anker's 3-in-1 portable iPhone charger is a classic Anker product, with a new twist. You now have a built-in USB-C cable to quickly charge your iPhone, plus an adapter that folds out. The power banks supports 30W charging, in both directions, so you can fast charge your iPhone. It's compact, easy to carry, has a 10,000 mAh capacity, and is down from $44.99 to $29.99. If you don't want the adapter, the Nano Power Bank is down from $39.99 to $31.99.
MOFT's tripod stand and wallet is a versatile accessory. It sticks to the back of your iPhone with magnets, and, fully opened, can lift your iPhone by up to eight inches. There's also a small wallet in the back where you can stash two cards. This usually sells for $49.99, but is on sale for $39.99.
If you're looking for a singular charging station, Anker's MagGo is down from $109.99 to $87.99, plus there's a 5% coupon for Prime members. This is a foldable Qi2 charger, so you can expect fast and consistent 15W MagSafe charging from the dock. Plus, you can also charge your AirPods and Apple Watch along with your iPhone.
Once upon a time, Apple shipped a dinky 5W power adapter with its iPhones. It wasn't powerful enough to charge your phone quickly, but it was there. Now, you get nothing, and you have to buy your own power adapter. Luckily, you can get Apple's 20W adapter for $14.99 (down from $19), and the regular, 15W Apple MagSafe charger for $29 (down from $39).
Lastly, let's talk about the best Apple deal available on the Prime Day sale, and perhaps one of the best accessories for the iPhone. The second-generation AirPods Pro are down to their lowest price yet, $168.99, which is the exact same price as the new, regular AirPods 4 with Noise Cancellation. With the AirPods Pro, you get silicon tips, a great transparency mode, and the upcoming ability to use them as hearing aids, making them a great companion to the iPhone.
