You probably come to the Apple Store mainly to buy a new iPhone, Mac, AirPods or iPad. Yet there are many other gadgets for sale, including some very special ones. We’ve listed a few for you.
The special stuff in the Apple Store
One More Thing takes a dive into the depths of the Apple Store and comes up with a number of special gadgets. Here are our five most notable ones.
#1 Ember Mug
It is quite remarkable that you can buy a mug in the Apple Store. No, this is not merchandise with the Apple logo or Tim Cook’s head on it.
This cup can be something special. This has a temperature controller that you control with your iPhone or Apple Watch. This is between 50 and 63.5 degrees. It is certainly not cheap, because you pay 149.95 euros for it in the Apple Store.

#2 Smart water bottle
We stick to the drinks, but this time the cold drinks. HidrateSpark has developed a bottle in which drinks stay cool for 24 hours. That sounds like music to the ears, but it is also smart. But is that necessary now?
The LED lights on the water bottle remind you when it’s time to drink. The sensor then tracks how much you drink and sends it to an app on your iPhone and Apple Watch, which then syncs it with the Health app. The price of this water bottle: 99.95 euros.

#3 Smart jump rope
Nowadays you can buy a smart variant of almost every product. Whether it’s a vacuum cleaner or a coffee maker, it’s possible. But a skipping rope? We haven’t seen those before. Still, you can find one in the Apple Store.
In the Store you will find the Smart Rope from Tangram Factory. It has 23 LED lights connected to magnetic sensors so you can see your fitness data. Of course you could also just count or take a look at your Apple Watch. This string will cost you 109.95 euros.

#4 Water Regulator in the Apple Store
The last thing you expect in the Apple Store is stuff for the garden, but they are really easy to find. How about a smart water controller. You connect this to your sprinkler system, after which you can enter a watering schedule.
This device is not really cheap. You pay 149.95 euros for it in the Apple Store.

#5 Apple Mac Pro wheels
Remarkable gadgets are not only made by third parties. Apple itself also occasionally lends a hand, although the Cupertino company is mainly due to the price it asks for it. For example, we have the cleaning cloth of 25 euros in the Apple Store and the Mac Pro wheels are back.
We can still understand that you want to put your Mac Pro on wheels. It’s a very heavy thing to carry around. It is therefore nice that Apple has devised wheels for it. But the price? You pay 849 euros for four small wheels.
