Leef iBridge

Many of us end up regretting choosing a 32GB iPhone model (or even a 16GB for those still using the iPhone 5), as our photo libraries and music collections hit the upper limit of the device’s storage. The Leef iBridge clips onto your iPhone and gets rid of this problem in an instant. We think it looks pretty neat too. This may be a more practical present, but one you will definitely be thanked for. The 16GB version is £41.74 at Amazon.
