Trying to figure out which iPhone accessories you should consider buying? iLounge has compiled a master list of over 60 announced iPhone add-ons from major vendors, including Apple, Belkin, Body Glove, DLO, Griffin, Logic 3, Macally, Marware, Monster, Speck, v-Moda, XtremeMac, and many others. Each of the products on this list is linked to our most recent photos and details, whether it’s in the iPhone Accessories section of our Accessories list, The Free iPod Book 3.0, or elsewhere on the iLounge.com site. Click on this article’s title for the fully linked list.
Be aware: iLounge’s editors have strong reason to believe that existing iPod accessories—and even some recently touted as “iPhone-compatible”—will not work as expected with the iPhone. We have made this point as clearly as possible in several articles on the site leading up to the iPhone’s launch.
Unfortunately, because iPhones have not been provided to developers for in-house electronic or physical testing, it will be unclear until after the iPhone’s launch which accessories will have issues, and how serious those issues will be. We have been told that it is possible that certain iPod chargers may break when connected to iPhone, and that it is likely that noises from iPhone will create audio interference with older iPod speakers.
If you are concerned about possible damage to your past accessories, we strongly recommend that you await “safe for iPhone” postings on manufacturers’ web sites before connecting them to your iPhone. Brief tests may not be enough to reveal certain types of issues, and since many electronically different revisions of accessories are out there, it is all but impossible for anyone other than the manufacturer to guarantee that all versions of a specific product will work.
We’ll continue to monitor official word from manufacturers, and from Apple, as the iPhone launch nears and passes.
