Cell phones are a staple in business and home life. They are no longer a luxury, but a necessity in daily living. Having your cell phone at hand and available for all or your daily chores and emergencies requires the right accessories to keep it up and running, and to keep you safe. Here are the top must have accessories for any regular cell phone user.

1. Cell Phone Battery, and one to grow on

A quality, long-lasting battery is key to maximize talk-time on your phone. Each battery has an expected amount of time in use before it needs a charge. There is no problem in recharging a cell phone battery before it has been fully used, nor is it an issue to only partially charge your phone. However, avoid storing a fully-charged battery for long periods of time as this can have a detrimental effect on its life. If you are a cell phone user that talks your way through the day, it is probably a good idea to invest in a back-up battery. Keeping a backup battery ready for use, will allow you to keep working or make a call in times of emergency when you have already run down your first.

2. Charger for home and the road

If your battery is the most important cell accessory, than your charger is the first-runner-up. One charger for your home or work is sufficient to get by, but for true convenience invest in a car charger as well. Chargers are relatively inexpensive, and tend to last longer than your phone will. The ease of being able to charge at home as well as in transit is well worth the added cost.

3. Handsfree

If you haven't seen a news report on the dangers or driving and talking on your cell phone, you haven't turned on your TV. Using a handsfree headset attachment with your phone allows you to continue to talk during your commute or daily errands, while keeping both hands on the wheel. A variety of headsets with various single or double ear pieces are available that provide comfort and safety while on the road.

Purchasing these few accessories are all you really need to get by. Don't forget the fun and fashion of your mobile phone. Have some fun and express your personality by choosing some fun accessories as well such as phone covers in your favorite color or pattern, ring tones that play the latest tunes, and cases to make your phone drop-proof.

You can find any of the fun and useful cell phone accessories you need online or at your local stores.
