Top picks from the Cult of Mac Store

Looking for some great accessories for your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch or Mac? The Cult of Mac Store is full of them, and we’re adding new ones all the time that you won’t want to miss.

This week’s top picks include a terrific wireless charging stand from Zens, must-have MacBook protection from Elago, an ultra-cool protective sleeve for your Apple TV remote, and more!

Every product you’ll find on sale in the Cult of Mac Store has been used, approved and usually reviewed by a member of the Cult of Mac team. We only stock items that we know our fans will love.

We’ve teamed up with some of the biggest and best brands and continue to expand our collection on a regular basis. Here’s what’s hot right now.

Zens Stand+Dock

Clear the clutter on your bedside table with the Zens Stand+Dock. This stunning charger tops up iPhone and AirPods simultaneously and eliminates messy cables that are forever in your way.

A built-in USB port on its base also allows you to charge a third device — like your Apple Watch. And with up to 20 watts of power output, there’s more than enough to go around. Check out our full review.

Elago MacBook case

Apple computers hold their value remarkably well — especially when they’re well looked after. Keep your MacBook looking brand-new with an ultra-slim, ultra-affordable hard case from Elago.

These snap-on protectors prevent your machine from picking up scuffs and scratches while it’s on the move. They’re not too thick or too heavy, and they don’t hide your MacBook’s gorgeous design.

Price: from $24.99

Elago Apple TV remote sleeve

One of the newest additions to the Cult of Mac Store is Elago’s incredibly cool R4 Retro sleeve for the Apple TV remote. It’s styled to look like a classic game controller and comes in a number of terrific colors.

The case not only protects your remote, but also makes it immediately obvious which orientation you should use it in. (That solves one of the biggest complaints about the Apple TV’s super-slim remote.)

They’re inspired by high-end jewelry and designed to deliver a premium look and feel, and they’re considerably easier to get on and off than traditional stainless steel bracelets.

Not Durable

5 months. That’s about how long this watch band lasted before the silicone became ripped and started coming off. The lesson here is that if your work, hobbies or pastime activities involve anything more severe than sitting in front of a computer keyboard then you should pass on this watch band. The silicone covering over the metal band is very thin and does not seem to be very durable. Too bad because it is comfortable and easy to put on. Of course, easy to put on means that you need to be careful because if the magnetic band catches on something at the very end it can peel back the magnetic connection and the watch falls off without you even noticing it.

Never Received Product, Ghosted by Support

Ordered this case a month and a half ago, was charged, never received tracking information. When I reached out to their support email, crickets. Asked for tracking, crickets. Still no product, still no response. Will never purchase from Cult of Mac again.

Juuk Ligero Rainbow Apple Watch Band:

Never received this item. I suspect a scam.

Nothing but a shame calling yourself a store that steals and ceases delivery

I paid for this item 40 days ago on September 17. Up until this day I have never received the item. Emails, constant phone calls, voicemails and absolutely every means to get your attention that this item has still not arrived. Ignoring my requests for a refund goes on and on.
