Quick answer: For a MacBook owner, a skin cut for their exact MacBook, a 3-in-1 laptop and phone stand, or a 240W cable. For a photographer, a camera or lens skin. For an MX Master owner, a skin that covers the worn grip. For an iPhone owner, a Clear Armour case or a MagLock wallet. Check their exact model first.
Black Friday falls on 27 November 2026, and the holiday rush follows straight after. If the person you're buying for already owns the expensive gear, the best gift is often the thing that makes it look new again or makes it easier to use every day.
This guide is grouped by what they own. Everything here is on capes.co today, and most of it is made for one exact model, so start with the last section if you're not sure which model they have.
What should I buy a MacBook owner?
A skin cut for their exact MacBook is the most personal pick; a stand or a cable is the safe one when you don't know the model.
- MacBook skin: we list skins for more than 30 MacBook models, from the MacBook Air 13 M5 (2026) and MacBook Pro 14 and 16 M5 Pro/Max (2026) back to older Intel models. Choose Essential, Pro or Max coverage on the product page. For someone who likes their MacBook's color as it is, Matte Transparent Guard protects it without hiding the color.
- 3-in-1 MagLock Stand: a foldable aluminum laptop riser with 8 height levels and a MagSafe phone stand built in. It fits laptops up to 16 inches, so you don't need their exact model.
- MagLock 4-in-1 240W cable: one flat cable with USB-C, Lightning and USB-A ends that can charge a MacBook, an iPad and a phone. It comes with a 6-month warranty.
What do you get a photographer who has everything?
A skin for the camera body or the lens they use most. Photographers rarely buy one for themselves, and it protects gear they care about.
- Camera body skin: cut for the exact body, with separate pieces for the top, body and buttons, and a squeegee in the box. Sony Alpha, Canon, Nikon and Fujifilm bodies are covered.
- Lens skin: for long lenses that spend their life resting on fences and car doors. The Sony FE 200-600 and Canon RF 100-500 skins include barrel, hood and cap pieces, cut clear of the zoom and focus rings.
- Rear lens cap skins: a small, useful extra. Matching caps to lenses means grabbing the right cap from the bag first time.
For what each one protects against, see our guide to protecting a camera and lenses from scratches.
What do you get someone with a Logitech MX Master?
A skin for their exact MX Master. The thumb rest on the MX Master 3 and 3S is a known weak spot: over time the soft coating goes sticky or starts to peel, and a skin gives it a clean, dry surface again.
We cut separate skins for the MX Master 3, MX Master 3S and MX Master 4. Each kit has body, button and rim pieces, a microfiber cloth and an application guide. Why the grip wears, and what to do about it, is in our MX Master rubber guide.
What are good gifts for an iPhone owner?
A case they'll keep on, or a MagSafe accessory that works with the case they already have.
- Clear Armour case: a polycarbonate hard shell with N52 magnets for MagSafe, made with 100 Year Anti-Yellow material. Available for iPhone models from the iPhone 13 to the iPhone 18 Pro Max.
- Impact Armour Pro: a thin MagSafe case with a full metal stand built into the back, for the iPhone 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max, 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max.
- MagLock Wallet: holds 3 cards, snaps on with N52 magnets, and its rotating kickstand props the phone up in portrait or landscape. An Android magnetic ring is in the box. 3-month warranty.
- MagLock Anywhere Mount: a magnetic phone mount for walls, mirrors, tiles and other flat, smooth surfaces, with 360-degree rotation.
Small extras that fit any stocking: the Stack Key Organiser (holds up to four keys, silently) and an AirPods Pro 2 skin.
How do I find their exact model without asking?
Look at the device or its settings for ten seconds while they're out of the room. Most of the gifts above are cut for one exact model, so this step matters.
| Device | Where to look | What to note |
|---|---|---|
| MacBook | Apple menu → About This Mac | Air or Pro, screen size, chip and year, e.g. MacBook Air 13-inch, M5, 2026 |
| iPhone | Settings → General → About → Model Name | The full name, e.g. iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro Max |
| Camera | The model name printed on the front or top plate | Body name and version, e.g. A7 IV, not just "Sony" |
| Lens | The name ring on the front of the lens or the side of the barrel | Focal range and aperture, e.g. FE 200-600 F5.6-6.3 |
| MX Master | The Logi Options+ app on their computer, or the original box | 3, 3S or 4; the 3 and 3S look almost identical |
Still unsure? The 3-in-1 MagLock Stand and the 4-in-1 cable fit almost anyone's setup without a model check.

FAQ
What is a good gift for someone who has a MacBook?
A skin cut for their exact MacBook model, a 3-in-1 laptop and phone stand, or a 240W USB-C cable that charges their MacBook, iPad and phone. The stand and cable don't need a model check.
What can I buy a photographer who has everything?
A skin for their camera body or most-used lens. It protects gear they care about from everyday scuffs, and few photographers buy one for themselves. Rear lens cap skins are a smaller extra.
Is a skin a good gift for an MX Master 3 or 3S?
Yes, especially if the thumb rest has gone sticky or started to peel. A skin cut for that exact mouse covers the grip with a clean, dry surface. Check whether they have the MX Master 3, 3S or 4 first.
Can the person I'm gifting apply a skin themselves?
Yes. Our skins come with an application guide and a microfiber cloth, camera body kits include a squeegee, and our how-to-apply page has step-by-step instructions.
When is Black Friday 2026?
Black Friday is on Friday 27 November 2026, the day after Thanksgiving in the US.
