Chances are you've looked at your phone in the last five minutes. You might even be using it to read this article right now, and you'll probably use it about a million more times before the day is over.

A lot of us—myself included—are guilty of being a little too obsessed with our phones. While it's important to step away from screens every so often, it's also completely okay to accept that your smartphone is basically an extension of your arm at this point. To embrace your tech addiction, here are 19 products from Amazon that you (and your phone) need ASAP.

1. This virtually indestructible case

Perfect for even the clumsiest among us.

Reviews: 387 Rating: 4.1 stars

If you're the type of person who's always dropping their phone (guilty!), you need a case that can stand up to your rough handling. When our experts tested some of the most popular heavy duty phone cases out there, the Spigen Slim Armor came out on top because it's not too thin or bulky and still has military-grade drop protection.

Pop it on, then pop it out.

Reviews: 4,089 Rating: 3.8 stars

There's a reason that PopSockets have become all the rage—they're easy to stick on and even easier to use. Reviewers like that the little discs make it easier to hold onto your phone when they're expanded (they pop out to almost an inch tall) but collapse flat against your phone when you aren't using it. Another plus is that you can get them in almost every pattern and color imaginable.

Who knew Amazon made such quality lightning cables?

Reviews: 13,817 Rating: 4.2 stars

I never knew bad charging cables existed until I bought a $5 one that stopped working less than a week after using it. Instead of settling for the cheapest cord, we recommend this high-quality, yet affordable one from Amazon, which is the best lightning cable we've ever tested. Not only does it have great charging capabilities, but its nylon braided casing also makes it durable and it comes in a longer 6-foot option.

Have you ever finished a Netflix marathon on your phone only to feel like you ran an actual marathon? That foggy, fatigued feeling is normal due to the blue light that screens emit, which can strain your eyes and tire out your brain. Slip on a pair of these blue light blocking glasses to combat that. Reviewers swear they've noticed a difference almost immediately and the glasses helped prevent headaches and even migraines.

Reviews: 43,961 Rating: 4.3 stars

I learned the hard way that a phone without a screen protector is a phone just asking to be cracked. What I should've done as soon as I got my new iPhone was slap on one of these incredibly popular protectors, which positive reviewers say are completely scratch and chip-resistant and are so thin that they're barely noticeable. Bonus: They're also 99.99 percent transparent, so they won't affect your screen's quality.

Reviews: 1,316 Rating: 4.4 stars

The only downside to watching hours of Netflix or YouTube on your phone? Having to hold your phone up the entire time. My arms are tired just thinking about it. That's where this flexible stand comes in, which Amazon reviewers love because it holds your phone securely in place and can be bent and twisted into any shape you want. You can attach it to the side of your bed, prop it on a table, hook it onto your steering wheel or bike handlebars, or loop it around your neck.

This magnetic mount, which has nearly 10,000 5-star reviews on Amazon, could be the solution.

Three things I never leave my house without: my keys, my phone, and my credit card.

Your phone's lightning cable goes through a lot of daily wear and tear, which can lead to splitting, fraying, and broken ends. While new cords aren't necessarily expensive, they aren't what you want to be spending your money on every few weeks. To help make your charger last longer, slip one of these cable-protecting critters on the end, which reviewers say are as functional as they are fun and help keep their cables in place and in better condition.
