We live in a world of technology and people are just going crazy the way technology is taking over our lives. We no longer live the way we lived 2 decades ago. For anything and everything we have a technology assisting us. Smartphone is one thing that is treated as good as a part of our body; we just can’t do without it. Smartphones has certainly brought about a revolution in the field of communication. And to more into that, there are some exceptional add-ons and accessories in the market that will just change the whole purpose you use your Smartphones for.

Sulekha takes the privilege of compiling some of the best accessories for Android Smartphones these days.

Pico Projector

Pico Projector is an add-on accessory for high-end Android Smartphones. These are little portable projectors that one can carry along with them and use whenever needed. These tiny projectors vary in size, resolution and lumen brightness. Pico projectors can be extensively used for giving presentations or can be used as a mini-home theater if paired with quality speakers.

USB O-T-G cables

These are very low costing cables but are very useful. These cables come with USB to micro USB port where one end is connected to the phone and the other is used to connect USB devices to access it from your smartphone. But again, this is not just for every Android smartphone, it comes handy only with some Android devices (most of high-end phones). With USB O-T-G cables one can connect USB mass storage devices, keyboard, mouse and a few more devices to list. So next time you want to copy songs from your pen drive to your phone, just plug in the O-T-G cable and pen drive.

Micro USB-to-HDMI cables

These days a lot of Smartphones come with HDMI port to connect Smartphones to TVs and Projectors and some don’t. This one is for those who do not have an HDMI port but their device is capable of supporting it. These cables come with micro USB port at one end, which is plugged into the phone, and HDMI port at the other end, which is connected to the secondary device for video output. There are a lot of manufacturers who provide these cables, they are also available online.

Battery pack covers

This thing is boon for heavy users as Smartphones don’t last long on the built-in battery they come with. If one does not mind putting some weight on their smartphone and getting a prolonged battery life, this is the ultimate choice for you. Battery pack covers act as an external battery which is fit into the back cover of the phone, making the phone little bulky and heavy but adds some protection too. Phones like Samsung Galaxy S2, Galaxy S3,Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 1, 2 and 3 are some of the devices taking advantage of this accessory. There are a few more companies who get the privilege to boast such covers- just hover over the internet and you will find the best one for you.

Smartwatches

Samsung came up with Galaxy Gear, which is one of the best smartwatches in the market present today, but the thing with this watch is that it only works with selected Galaxy Smartphones only. But that does not mean you do not have an alternative to it, of course you have. There are manufacturers making Smartwatches that are compatible with majority of the Android phones.

Some of them are Pebble Smartwatch, Sony Smartwatch and Burg Smartwatch- these watches can be paired with majority of the Android Smartphones.
