When Apple announced the Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, I was a little skeptical. Apple typically reserves more “professional” and dull colors for its Pro models and more vibrant colors for its regular iPhone lineup. However, since I love orange as a color, I chose the 17 Pro in Cosmic Orange. After using it from day one, I can easily say that this is my favorite iPhone color variant for a long time. So, naturally, over time, some of my favorite accessories came to color match my cosmic orange iPhone, and I had to create something that I carried with me every day. These accessories not only perfectly complement the Cosmic Orange finish, they also solve a real problem and earn a permanent place in my EDC.
Why not try out accessories with a Cosmic Orange theme? Also, comment on your favorite iPhone color of all time.
This is my newest addition to this lineup, but it’s also the one I use the most. The Aulumu G09 Ghost maintains the retro-futuristic translucent design language while adding a versatile 360° stand and finger loop to the back of your iPhone. What you get:
- 360° rotating stand design
- Can be used vertically or horizontally with almost infinite viewing angles
- Glow-in-the-dark finger loops
- super strong magnet
What I love about this accessory is that it’s so convenient yet simple. You can prop your iPhone up in almost any orientation, and the finger loop design is great. It’s made of slightly elastic rubber, so it’s easy to use. The finger loop gives you even more confidence when using your phone one-handed, especially if you don’t have a case. The stand function is also excellent. The hinge also gives you peace of mind, as you can prop your phone up at almost any angle.
The G09 Ghost is available for purchase from Alumu’s website for $39. Here you will find not only orange, but also white, gray and yellow. The regular all-aluminum G09 is also available for $44.
I have reviewed this Kuxiu S4 in the past and it is still powerful. This accessory is the closest to the actual Cosmic Orange color I’ve ever seen. The colors match perfectly. But of course, it’s also a great battery pack. What you get:
- 10,000mAh battery capacity
- Qi2.2 wireless charging, support 25W
- Built-in TFT diagnostic display showing charging speed, temperature, percentage, etc.
- built-in kickstand
I carry this battery pack with me everywhere. Having 10,000mAh gives me a lot of peace of mind, especially since I don’t get through the day with a full charge. The magnets are strong, the battery feels very premium, and the shape and function of the display gives it a unique touch. If you are looking for a new battery bag, this is the one for you.
The Kuxiu S4 battery is available directly from Kuxiu’s site for $77. Made of cosmic orange and space black.
This is a must-have and pairs very well with the Kuxiu S4. The Nomad Chargekey is the smallest accessory on the list, but perhaps the most useful. It’s one of those products that you’ll be very happy to have when you need it.
- Ultra compact USB-C cable
- keychain design
- nylon braided cable
- magnetic cable tip
- Supports up to 240W charging and 10gbps data speed
Everything is possible with this little cable. It can be used to charge your iPhone or 16-inch MacBook Pro at 140W. You can also rely on it for some data transfer use cases, and you can rest assured that it provides fast data transfer speeds. I love pairing this with my Kuxiu S4. That’s because when you wire your iPhone, you get 35W wired charging in a small, compact package. If you want an emergency cable that will last forever thanks to its exceptional quality, ChargeKey is the way to go.
ChargeKey is available from Nomad’s website for $29. Available in two colors: Stella Orange and Black.
This is the most fun of the lot. Abxylute has created the perfect compact and casual iPhone controller. I reviewed this product earlier this year and still use it whenever I get the chance. For me, this turns my iPhone into the ultimate little Gameboy replacement. What you get:
- Snap-on via MagSafe
- Lightweight at only 55g
- Full controller layout: dual joysticks, ABXY buttons, D-pad, shoulder buttons, triggers, home button, start, select
- Remove the magnetic ring from the controller so you can set it up in tabletop mode.
- bluetooth 5.3
- Battery life is rated at 12 hours and charges via USB-C.
The biggest advantage here is convenience. Connects via Bluetooth and auto-pairs after initial pairing. You can snap it directly to your iPhone or use it in tabletop mode like on the Nintendo Switch. It works with all Apple Arcade games that support controllers, works with Delta emulators (my favorite use case), and can even connect to your Switch if you have one. If you’re looking for a fun and casual gaming experience on your iPhone, it’s worth a look.
The Abxylute M4 Snap-On Controller is available directly from Abxylute’s website for $49. There are so many fun and retro colors to choose from, but of course I chose the orange version!
Since I do an all-orange daily carry, I had to include this as well. This was the first accessory I reviewed and it was a perfect color match to my Cosmic Orange iPhone. It also happens to be the best travel 3-in-1 charger in the game. What you get:
- 25W fast charging for Qi2.2 compatible devices
- Quickly charge your Apple Watch and AirPods
- 25% smaller and slimmer than the original X40 stand
- Never exceed 40℃ to keep cool and efficient
- Includes USB-C to USB-C braided cable, 45W power brick, and hardshell carrying case
I carry this charger with me everywhere. I love its versatility. It can be used as a MagSafe pack when fully folded, stretched flat, or propped up as a 3-in-1 charging stand. Also great is the fact that it comes with a proper charging brick, braided cable, and hardshell carrying case. It’s made of aluminum and the build quality is similar to what you’d find at an Apple store.
The Kuxiu X40 Turbo retails for $78 directly from Kuxiu’s site and comes in orange, wood, black, and silver colors.
final thoughts
The Cosmic Orange iPhone is one of my favorite iPhone variations in recent years. There are already rumors that Apple may not bring this color back to the iPhone 18 Pro lineup. If you have a few months left and it’s a color you’ve been dreaming of, go ahead and jump on this color. But if you have a Cosmic Orange iPhone and want to go all out, these accessories will be the perfect match for your orange everyday belongings.
