Summer is back, and so is the season of packed airports, road trips, and frantic last-minute packing. The right gear will not magically shorten a layover, but it can make the whole trip smoother, from keeping your devices charged to making sure you never lose track of your luggage again.
We’ve put together a few travel essentials that earn their spot in your bag. None of them are bulky, and each one solves a small issue people usually face while traveling. Whether you are flying overseas or just heading to the beach for the weekend, here are some of the best summer tech items you should carry.
SPONSORED INIU SnapGo Air 10,000mAh INIU If your summer plans involve airports, long train rides, or just a lot of time away from an outlet, your phone will definitely need a battery backup. The trouble with most magnetic power banks with decent capacity is that they are often chunky, heavy bricks that make them difficult to carry around. The INIU SnapGo Air solves that by being the slimmest Qi 2.2 magnetic power bank you can buy right now, making it one of the easiest things to toss in a bag before a trip. The selling point here is the size. At 0.5 inches and weighing just 6.9 ounces, it sits flush against the back of your phone instead of doubling its thickness. The body is anodized aluminum with a soft-touch finish, so it feels great in the hand if you’re carrying your phone around. A 13N magnetic grip keeps it locked in place, whether you are walking through a terminal or shooting video one-handed. INIU The SnapGo Air is Qi 2.2-certified, so you’ll get 25W wireless charging with compatible phones. It’ll charge an iPhone 17 Pro to 50% in just 33 minutes, half an hour quicker than a standard wireless charging pad. And there’s also the attached USB-C GoCord, which delivers 45W wired charging. That same cord recharges the power bank itself, so you don’t have to dig around for a separate cable. The 10,000mAh capacity is also excellent, allowing you to charge most phones fully almost twice. It’s also airline-approved, making it the ideal travel accessory. It’s packed with safety features like Temp Guard 3.0, a system that checks the temperature thousands of times per second to keep the surface cool while you charge and navigate simultaneously. Available in six colors, from a low-key Space Gray to Sunset Orange and Soft Lilac, the INIU SnapGo Air is currently discounted to $49.49, a 10% discount for Prime Day.
Anker Prime Charger 160W
Anker
The more devices you have, the more chargers and cables you need to carry around, unless you can replace most of them with a single device. The Anker Prime 160W helps you save a lot of space in your backpack. It’s a compact GaN charger with three USB-C ports and a small smart display on the front that shows live power, voltage, and temperature readouts as you charge.
Plug in a single device, and you get up to 140W, which is enough to fast-charge most 16-inch laptops at full speed. And with three USB-C ports, you can charge your laptop, phone, camera, and other travel accessories. Touch controls let you adjust ports right on the device, and pairing it with the Anker app over Bluetooth unlocks custom power modes and real-time monitoring. For travel, it means one charger covers your whole kit.
