ESR MagSafe Accessories - These Guys Offer More for Less

Although I've only been recently acquainted with the ESR range of Apple accessories, I've quickly come to realise just how extensive that range is - and what quality products they are.

After my recent review comparing several choices of ESR iPad cases, I was excited to give some of the other gear a go - particularly some MagSafe options.

First up, I was somewhat intrigued by the Geo Magnetic Wallet Stand (Grip). Not a particularly catchy name, but undoubtedly a genius bit of design, combining all the elements you could wish for when it comes to keeping your cards safe.

Not only does this wallet look great, it fits more cards than others I have tried. Technically, you can get five cards in without too much difficulty - three in the rear slot and two in the internal pouch with the see-through window for your ID.

After spending a few weeks with these accessories, I've learned if there's one ESR does well, it's magnets. If you're sticking your wallet to the back of your phone, you want to be confident it's not going to come UNstuck unless you want it to. ESR claims this wallet clings to your phone up to 4 times more powerfully than other, similar products - requiring as much as 3kg (or even more) force to remove it.

That secure feeling also gives you the confidence to use it as a very stable stand - either for viewing content or joining an online meeting - or even to capture a selfie. After all, not many of us carry a tripod around wherever we go.

The Geo Magnetic Wallet Stand (Grip) attaches just as powerfully in either portrait or landscape and folds back nice and flat when the stand is not required. In fact, I was surprised at how little bulk I felt when sliding my phone into my pocket with this wallet attached - despite the addition of the "durable grip" loop that also slides flat when not in use.

ESR has thought of everything; your cards are RFID protected against skimming - but perhaps the best feature of all is you can add this wallet to your list of Find My devices under your Apple profile.

This is possible once you charge the wallet with the included cable and pair it with your iPhone. Charging takes just 90 minutes and lasts for 6 months.

A wallet that's essentially impossible to lose. Surely a must for regular travellers.

Next we have the rather Sci-Fi sounding Cyber FlickLock Magnetic AirPods case.


Other than getting a cooler colour than old-fashioned Apple-white, I'd never really seen the point in a case for your case before.

But again, unlike other AirPods cases, here ESR brings a lot of extra features to the table.

Firstly, as you can probably see from the pictures, this is about as rugged as a case can get, constructed from a shock-absorbing polymer and featuring the added protection of Air Guard corners.

What's even more crucial is the FlickLock itself. If you've ever dropped your AirPods case onto a hard surface, you'll know 9 times out of 10 the lid will pop open and in all likelihood, your precious pods will eject themselves and go flying.

True to form, ESR's strong magnets keep this from happening. The lid simply can't open unless you slide the lock across - then it springs up in a very fun and convenient way. And although your AirPods case is now protected from every angle, there are still access cutouts for charging port, speaker and status light.

Obviously, you can charge wirelessly and magnetically via a MagSafe charger and as an added bonus, you also get a secure carabiner clip to attach your AirPods onto your bag or belt loop. There's even a cleaning brush to help keep your pods free from ear gunge and other detritus.

Finally, it's not really MagSafe - although it is still magnetic; the Geo Digital Pencil is definitely worth a look.


After just 30 minutes charging, the Geo Digital Pencil will be good for around 12 hours use and although it doesn't have some of the pro-level abilities of Apple's own latest stylus (like squeeze-based shortcuts) it still has a lot going for it at a fraction of the price.

Compatible with every iPad from 2018 onwards, you get a natural-feeling, lag-free performance, complete with tilt-sensitivity for different widths when sketching or colouring.

Palm Rejection means you can rest your hand quite comfortably on your iPad screen while you're drawing and the shortcut button on the end of the pencil takes you to your home page or to multi-tasking view with a single or double-tap.

For those iPads with a magnetic strip on the top edge, that'll work just fine with the Geo Digital Pencil and as its name suggests, this is another ESR accessory you can add to your Find My inventory. You can even get it to sound off using Find My if you've lost it down the side of your seat cushion.

Unfortunately, it doesn't charge wirelessly like Apple's pro pen does and I worry the little rubber plug that protects the USB-C charging port will definitely go missing one day, as it isn't attached at all.

On the plus side, you get three spare nibs in the box, really underlining what good value this stylus is.

In fact, I don't think anyone could complain they're not getting bang for their back with any of these accessories - or any of the ESR products I've tried to date. They're cleverly designed, seem superbly manufactured, and offer a lot of extra features you simply won't find on your run-of-the-mill, 3rd-party products.
