Hello Everyone!

Was a die-hard iPhone user up until iPhone 4. Went to Android 3 years ago because I wanted a larger phone. Now I am coming back to Apple because of their iPhone 6 Plus and new watch.

Been a long time since I had an iPhone. Have some questions about buying accessories that I hope some of you will help me with...

1. Lightning Cables. I know iPhone 6 will come with one. Want some extras for the car and work. Don't want to pay the outrageous price Apple is charging for them. Any third-party brands that work perfectly? Perhaps Amazon Basics?

2. Dock. Want a media dock that I can simply plop the iPhone 6 Plus into at night to charge and transfer music to my Bose radio via output. Is there currently a media charging dock for the iPhone 5 that will fit the iPhone 6 Plus? Anyone know if Apple is planning to release a media dock for the iPhone 6 Plus?

3. Portable Battery Charger. I am going to miss being able to swap out batteries the way I did on my Android phone. Figure I can buy a portable battery charger for when the iPhone runs low. Anyone want to recommend a really good portable charger?

Thank you, in advance, for your help
