    35 Tech And Gadget Items That Are Must-Haves For Travel

    This TikTok-beloved 3-in-1 foldable magnetic charger will be your new copilot on every trip.

    1. portable cordless phone charger that thousands of reviewers swear by as an easy, highly portable way to get a quick charge on their phones — especially great for trips where you're on the go so much that there's no time to go back to the hotel and charge.

    Promising review: "The holy grail of portable chargers!!! I was traveling to Disney for vacation and knowing me, I would drain my battery with just taking pictures alone. I wanted a portable battery but didn’t want a carry a cord either, so I was excited when I found this little baby! It does exactly as described, has a pretty pink color, and I get one full charge of battery for my iPhone 11. Get it. You will not be disappointed!" —Meghan Doble

    Get it from Amazon for $29.75+ (clip the 15% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in six colors). 

    2. A hands-free (rotating!) phone mount designed for use on all airlines. Not only can you mount it to the tray table but also to the arm of a chair or any flat surface, so you'll be able to stream content easy as pie.

    Perilogics is a small business that specializes in tech-oriented travel products and backpacks. 

    Promising review: "I bought this nifty gadget about six months ago for a multi-leg, ultra-long haul trip and it more than held up the entire duration. I was able to finagle it to fit the tray tables on different planes and like others, I find the height just nice when clamped onto a stowed tray table. It also works on my roller carry-on handle during layovers. However, I find myself using it a lot outside of travel too! Work-wise, I've clamped it onto my office desk shelving to hold my phone at eye level beside my computer. At home, I simply clamped it to a deck of cards and it turns into a versatile stand that I can place on any flat surface. Heck, I've been using it to hold my phone comfortably at eye level while watching videos in bed. It's extremely well built and I find myself fidgeting with it all the time. Thus far, it still feels solid and I don't anticipate breaking it anytime soon. Even if it does break, I'll be happy to buy another one or two of it!" —Earendil

    Get it from Amazon for $12.97.

    3. An AirFly, a handy gadget you can use to connect your wireless headphones to the headphone jacks on flights so you can stream The Fault in Our Stars and bawl thousands of feet in the air again without shelling out $$ for wired headphones.

    Promising review: "If you have a wireless earpiece and fly frequently, this is a must-have. Most newer planes have a monitor on the seat backs, which enables you to watch movies, etc. This unit enables you to do so using your wireless earpiece. Connection is simple and automatic once you have initially paired your device or devices. It's convenient. I'm happy with the purchase." —JCE

    Get it from Amazon for $33.56+ (available in three styles).

    4. A portable door lock you'll especially want to invest in if you're traveling alone. This gizmo doesn't just stop the door from opening but will sound a *very* loud alarm if someone tries opening it from the other end, and even has a built-in LED flashlight for emergencies.

    Promising review: "I have two of these, and they are amazing. The loop goes around the door handle and two thin metal prongs go in the crack of the door. If the door opens even a little, the prongs are separated and it lets out the loudest, most obnoxious wailing sound in the history of the world. It's great for a single girl traveling on her own!" —Kelly

    Get it from Amazon for $12.72+ (available in eight colors).

    5. An international power converter so you can use (and protect!!) all your various devices and appliances safely in over 150 countries, making you the savviest globe-trotter of them all. Reviewers swear by this for everything from hair straighteners to televisions to gaming consoles. Plus, with its four USB ports and two regular ports, you can power or charge up to six things at once. 

    Promising review: "Prior to this purchase, we've killed an appliance or two in overseas travel. We bought the Sokoo Power Converter for a trip to the Philippines. It worked like a champ! We charged our iPhones and other high-end devices with peace of mind. My wife used her flat iron with this just fine. I like that it has plug adapters for outlets around the world so I know wherever we go, we can use this. I recommend this to anyone doing international travel." —David Aiken

    Get it from Amazon for $39.98

    6. A reviewer-beloved travel laptop backpack worth every darn penny. It's fully waterproof to protect all your tech and its main compartment includes a padded laptop compartment, an open pocket, two side pockets for umbrellas and a water bottle, and three extra zippered pockets. The front pocket also comes with spots for your phone, wallet, and keys, and there's a space for a USB port.

    A lot of nurses, teachers, and parents also swear by this backpack, since it's so well organized, durable, and comfy!

    Promising review: "Love how well made this is. I’ve spilled things on it many times and it is easy to clean off. All the pockets are amazing. Fits everything I need for work — laptop, small keyboard, headphones, charging cord, etc. Very comfortable even though I have it fully stuffed." —Denise Wells

    Get it from Amazon for $38.98 (available in 12 colors).

    7. A digital luggage scale perfect for anyone who likes to play chicken with the weight limits on various airlines. This gizmo will quickly and accurately let you know in pounds *or* kilograms how much your suitcase weighs just by attaching it to the handle and lifting — no clunky floor scales required. 

    Promising reviews: "I cannot imagine how we would have managed a big international trip without this. It saved us so much stress and, I’m sure, surprise charges at the airport." —Potter Freak

    "This scale works and was accurate on four flights. First flight was a test at 46 pounds and Delta scales said it was 46 pounds. The next two flights were at 49 pounds and both United and Delta found it to be 49 pounds. The bag on the fourth flight weighed 49 but the United scale found it to be 48 pounds. Four different airports and scales proved that this scale is a good, low-cost, must-have item for air travel." —Robert

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in three colors and also a two-pack).

    8. A 3-in-1 foldable magnetic wireless charger you'll honestly be mad you didn't know about before now?? It folds out from a small square into a rectangular charging pad with a spot for your iPhone, AirPods, *and* Apple Watch to charge all at the same time. A lot of travelers swear by it because it saves soooo much space in their luggage.

    Check out a TikTok of the foldable 3-in-1 charger in action. 

    Promising review: "I use this product to charge my iPhone 13, AirPods, and Apple Watch. Prior to this 3-in-1 compact purchase, I have purchased three different kinds of 3-in-1 chargers. I frequently travel between school and home with carry-on bags on airlines and all of the previous stand version chargers doesn't fit well in my bags or I am always worried I would break. This is compact and folds so well that I can fit in my carry-on or in any zipper pockets without having to worry about breaking anything. Charger works really well and it is the best compact one you can find in market. Love it and been using it for two months now and no issues!!" —SBREDDY

    Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (clip the $6 off coupon on the product page for this price; available in six colors). 

    9. waterproof pouch to keep your phone and other "doesn't play well with water" type gadgets safe. Not only does this keep it safe but also you can still use the touchscreen with it, meaning you can take underwater travel photos galore 🐠🐟🐡.

    It fits any phone up to 100 mm x 170 mm (or about 3.9 inches x 6.7 inches). It's also a great fix for keeping out sand and dirt (and a great option for runners, if you're caught in the rain but still want to be able to toggle through your music options).

    Promising review: "I purchased this case in July for an upcoming canoe trip with a friend and as luck would have it, we flipped our canoe. Being the rebel that I am, I chose not to wear my phone around my neck. And so it, my ID, and my debit card ended up at the bottom of the river, and I just assumed it would be discovered a thousand years from now and placed in a museum as an ancient artifact. Fast-forward to this week. I was contacted via FB by an Alachua County Sheriff’s Office diver and guess what he found? Yup, my phone case with all of the contents intact and dry as a bone! He had to cut the case open but there was not one single drop of water in it and he ended up purchasing a case for himself because he was just that impressed!" —Julie McDonald

    Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in 14 colors).

    10. A set of affordable, highly popular wireless Bluetooth earbuds reviewers say are AirPod dupes but better. Not only are they noise-canceling and waterproof, but you can listen to music during your flight, car ride, or even while you're sleeping *without* your ears feeling like they've been beaten up. These come equipped with several sizes of earbuds so you can get your perfect, painless fit.

    These come with a wireless charging case that provides up to 14 hours of charge (with the earbuds able to play for four-plus hours with each full charge). The earbuds are also sweatproof and waterproof, so you can use them during workouts or runs or even in the shower and have a built-in mic so you can chat on the phone. Psst, these are also a great option for going outside in a mask, since they don't have wires that'll get tangled in the mask straps.

    Promising review: "So many things to rave about with these! Quality of the design and feel of these is amazing. I could literally wear these all night while on vacation with a roommate who snored. They were that comfortable and good at noise-canceling. I use these most often to listen to music and the sound quality is superb. I have a pair of AirPods that I was *thankfully* gifted and I hardly ever use them because they just aren't as good as my Tozos!" —Alexis Arnold

    Get them from Amazon $19.99 (clip the "15% off" coupon on the product page for this price; available in five colors).

    11. Plus, a pair of wireless sleep headphones that will play white noise or the music of your choice in a comfy headband, so you can enjoy the calm of it all night long (and block out the unrepentant snoring and/or nearby partying of fellow travelers).

    Promising review: "I saw these on TikTok and since I have so much trouble finding quality headphones, I decided to try them. I’m very happy with the sound quality and comfort of these. I’m able to fall asleep to my music or podcast without having to limit myself to sleeping on my back or losing an earbud in my bed in the middle of the night. It makes working out easier as well. The value is worth the quality. I would recommend." —Thunder Muffin

    Get them from Amazon for $15.99 (available in 13 colors). 

    12. *And* a portable white-noise machine because some of us just need a tiny gadget to go PFFSHHHHHHHHHHHHH adjacent to our ears to fall asleep at night and that's nobody's business but our own, thank you very much!!!

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I was skeptical at first about how well this little noise machine would work in my hotel room (I am a frequent business traveler). However, skepticism gave way to satisfaction. This little sound machine blocked out hotel noises very well and helped me sleep through the night. For a little machine, it provides very good volume and different noise options. I highly recommend this product!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $25.35+ (available in four styles).

    13. A 10-foot lightning cable perfect for your hotel room's weirdly placed outlets so you can still watch your beloved TikToks without having to hang upside down from the couch like a bat to make sure your phone is still charging.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "You can never go wrong with extra-long charging cables! My wife and I use these for charging our phones on our nightstands so we can use the phones in bed without over stretching shorter cables. The braided cables are nice and the red connectors add a little pop of color. We’ve had other brands of cables fall apart at the connector in a short amount of time but these seem pretty solid." —Mr. D

    Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in five colors and four other sizes).

    14. A set of cable ties that come in three different sizes for all your tech, so you're not pulling out an entire JUNGLE of wires when you just need to juice up your phone for a few minutes. 

    Promising review: "Cords are kind of a nightmare and once they get out of hand, they really get out of hand. I bought these to make sure that all my chargers were nice and neat. These work really well and with the variety of colors and sizes, you can color-coordinate everything. If I find any more cords that need to be organized, I will definitely be buying another box." —T.J.

    Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $7.99 (available in three styles).

    15. A bedside caddy because for some reason the nightstands in most hotel rooms are approximately the size of a thumbtack?? This will do the trick by holding all your essentials like electronics, pills, and glasses, so they're always at the tips of your fingers.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I purchased this because I was always losing my remotes. Don't ask me how since I live in a tiny studio, but it happened more times than I can count. I finally decided I wanted a remote caddy and glad I purchased this one. It really can't be beaten for the price. My couch sits right next to my bed so I am able to reach it from both spots. Super convenient whether I am in bed or on the couch. I do have a bed with an adjustable base (controlled by another remote I was constantly losing), so I was concerned that it would not work when the bed was adjusted. Luckily, it fits pretty tightly between the mattress and the platform. Every so often, I do have to slide it back to its original position but that is not very often. There is a slight odor when you take it out of the plastic but it dissipated quickly. Overall, quite happy with my purchase!" —L Math

    Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in two colors).

    16. A backseat car video monitor so you really can have "eyes in the back of your head." This lets you peek in on your favorite backseat drivers to make sure everyone is A-OK. (Or occasionally referee a sibling fight over a Goldfish bag. It happens.) Parents especially love how easy it is to install and how it helps them keep an eye on kiddos with rear-facing car seats. 

    Note: You should only ever look at the camera when the car isn't in motion! 

    Promising review: "I saw this product on TikTok and knew I wanted to try it. I LOOOOOVE this product! I hate trying to use my rearview mirror to make sure she’s okay. The quality of the video is great for the price and I can easily see if my infant has spit up or I can see her mouth to shove a paci in if needed. I can see details like if her eyes are open or closed. The night vision isn’t too bad but not as detailed, but you can see enough. But overall for the price, I would buy this product again hands down." —Michael Giblin

    Get it from Amazon for $30.59

    17. weekly pill organizer designed with push-through silicone lids to easily organize your pills at the beginning of the week and magnetic bases so you can take a day or a few days' worth of pills in their capsules when you're on the move and leave the rest behind.

    Sagely is a family-owned small business founded by husband-and-wife team Ellie Glazer and Ivor Miskulin, who spent three years designing the ideal, stress-free pill storage solution. The silicone lids are super secure but also designed for gentle and easy opening and closing to account for users with dexterity issues.

    Promising review: "Love this thing!!! I'm only 30 and didn't want an old lady pill box...and this one was modern and cool. The little slots to push in pills are fantastic and the containers are very large. It keeps my huge vitamin pills on either side and could fit over 10 large ones if needed. Love this thing. Worth the price and looks like it'll last forever. I do wish the magnets were stronger. They just keep them in place but will slide off if bumped. I assume this is helpful for people with arthritis. It's an easy fix. I take down one day's worth of pills, set it on my counter, and now I'm not too lazy to take my pills!" —Chicken McNugget

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in four colors).

    18. A ridiculously beloved, Shark Tank–featured Click & Carry Grocery Bag Carrier to help you lift bulky, heavy bags while you're traveling so easily, you'll put Superman out of business. With this gizmo, you can hook your bags to it and lift up to 80 pounds while comfortably resting the carrier on your shoulder instead of letting all the straps cut into your palms.

    Click & Carry is a Shark Tank– and QVC-featured small business that specializes in easy-carry accessories. 

    Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it. This is great when you have a few bags and a box. For example, if you balance the bags, you can throw it over your shoulder and walk inside and have two free hands to carry the box, which is great. Product seems well built and is comfortable on your shoulder or hand because of the padding." —Hung

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in seven colors). 

    19. A rechargeable magnetic phone charger / hand warmer set — like, honestly I'm a little in love with how clever and CUTE this is? The two pieces magnetize together to warm your hands or separate to put one in each pocket, and you can *also* use those same two pieces to charge two phones at once. Basically a must-have for anyone going on couple adventures.

    It has four warmth settings so you can pick one that's perfect for the conditions, too! 

    Promising review: "I was skeptical, but this product amazed me. I plan to buy a bunch for Christmas presents. Quality materials and function beautifully. I purchased for a winter trip but started using immediately during a cold snap. I walked around a lake in freezing conditions. Turned these on in my pockets and couldn’t believe how well they work. Things I love: You can adjust the heat settings easily with a rubbery push button that isn’t easily triggered. You can see which setting it’s on with one to four red lights. I did not wear gloves and tried out each setting. They warm up quickly. Lowest setting was not lukewarm but warm enough for cold pockets. The highest setting gets really hot. Almost too hot to hold directly without a glove on but not so hot you’ll get burned. I love that you can take your hands out of your pockets and hold them easily because they have a grippy side. I walked around for a bit with my hands out of pockets and they didn’t get cold." —Angela Gil

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (clip the 20% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in 12 colors). 

    20. A portable lock box to give you some peace of mind while you're in the ocean cavorting with mermaids. This attaches securely to a beach chair or table so you can stash things like your phone, room key, and wallet without worrying about them disappearing on you. You can use the provided key or make up your own three-digit code to keep it locked.

    Promising review: "This is a must-have for vacations. We took it to Atlantis in the Bahamas. It worked perfectly. Held our phones, room keys, etc. while we were out enjoying the beach or pool. Just looped it to beach chair or table. Highly recommended." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $49.95+ (available in four colors).

    21. A mini steam iron you'll *definitely* want to invest in if you pack tight and you've got formal occasions or ~dressy outfits~ to show off. This is a much easier solution than wrangling a hotel iron or trying to run the shower steam over your clothes.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "The best travel item I have purchased this year! It irons so well. I took it on a trip to Germany a few weeks ago. I just placed a towel on the counter or on the bed, and it took minimal effort to iron out the creases. The steam works very well. I hardly had to use the max heat option because it’s pretty powerful. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who does business travel and is going to areas that don’t have irons available in the hotel rooms or for leisure travel as well. It doesn’t take up much room. It fits in the palm of my hand. I also had no problem getting through security in Germany, London, or the US." —Erica Kowsari

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99.

    22. A glare-free Kindle Paperwhite that is, bless its technological heart, fully waterproof, so you can finally read rom-coms in the pool or in the rain on trips without sending all the unsuspecting characters to an early watery grave.

    Abby Kass / BuzzFeed

    Here's what BuzzFeed member Abby Kass (pictured above!) has to say about this: "^ Yes, that is me sitting in a pool in Hawaii holding my Kindle over the water without fear or stress that if it falls in, it will break. Truly living my best life. I've been an avid Kindle user for the past four years but when I saw the new version, I knew it was time to upgrade. The main selling point is the fact that this one is waterproof. So waterproof, in fact, that it can be in up to 2 meters of fresh water for more than 60 minutes. Plus, it's lighter, has more storage, and the battery lasts for WEEKS. I took this on vacation with me and was so impressed. I was able to sit on the ledge in the pool and read without worrying about getting the device wet. And I even put it in the water to test and it still works perfectly. Plus, I used it every day and didn't have to charge it the whole time I was on the trip. That gets a big gold star in my book." 

    Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in 8 and 32 GB and in four colors). Also available in a newer version for $149.99.

    23. A 4-in-1 flying USB port to condense the tangle of wires next to your bed while you're traveling (especially since there's usually just the one outlet you have to perform a circus feat to reach). This includes a 3.3-foot extension chord so your devices can stay close!

    Promising review: "It does as it says it does, allowing my Dell XPS15 to operate a pair of USB devices from my lightning port! The laptop has two USB ports, one of which is always occupied by my USB mouse dongle and the other by my protected USB drive. If I wanted to plug in my phone to switch data or add another thumb drive to transfer a device, everything might have to be disconnected, but not anymore. It was really worth it." —Liberty

    Get it from Multitasky for $25 (available in three colors). 

    24. A Petcube, which is basically a Furbo without all the extra bells and whistles. This super-reliable pet monitoring camera has a wide angle and night vision so you can check on your pet 24/7 and even talk to them, giving you a whole new peace of mind if someone is pet-sitting them at home while you're away.

    It's also app enabled and can send you instant notifications, sync with Amazon Alexa, and even access a vet on demand if you notice any weird behaviors.

    Promising review: "Unbeatable for the money. I needed a way to keep an eye on a new 4-month-old puppy who keeps digging holes in my yard. I didn't expect a lot for $39 but I was pleasantly surprised. The video is quick to get started and very clear, zoom is quick, and the night vision actually works. I haven't used any of the other features yet but these alone make this a great value! Far exceeding what I expected." —Rick Grisham

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99.

    25. A delightfully flexible, dimmable LED neck reading light so you can read to your heart's content late at night even when everyone sharing a hotel space with you is existing on their own deeply confused time zones.

    Promising review: "I couldn't be happier with this light. I use it for reading in bed and when I travel. It's comfortable, has multiple settings, is easy to use, and the battery stays charged for a long time. You can turn on either one or both sides of the light and its flexibility allows the light to be adjusted easily. I highly recommend this light for reading in bed, for outdoor walking at night, and for doing close work that requires good lighting." —Jean G

    Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in eight colors). 

    26. An electronics travel organizer for anyone traveling with multiple devices. This will let you stash all the accessories neatly and efficiently without feeling like you're digging for lost treasure every time you need to charge something. 

    Promising review: "Such a simple thing that is so helpful. This is a soft-sided tech accessory travel case (probably useful for other things too). For me, it holds a MacBook power supply, mouse and mouse pad, various plus, cords and ear phones, all neatly and in place. Just so much better than my old system of everything in one bag. Bought one for my daughter too." —CaliKla

    Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in three colors). 


    27. A battery-operated flexible rotating fan so versatile, it's about to become your warm weather BFF. Reviewers attach it to strollers, car seats, and tents on trips. It even comes with a built-in light for extra visibility at night!

    Promising review: "We live in Florida and realized how badly we needed a fan for our newborn. We use it pretty much on a daily basis. We put it on her car seat and on her stroller when we go on walks. I’ve even propped it up on our desk when I’m working and holding our daughter. The three speeds are great: low usually offers just enough of a cool down and high is very impressive because it’s fast and quiet. The lights we didn’t really need but has been a nice feature to have. Our daughter hates going in her car seat and this helps to distract her sometimes. Plus, since we live in Florida we have to wait to go on walks until later in the day and the light lets us be seen easier. Overall, it’s a great and I’d definitely recommend!" —EmLe

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in three colors). 

    28. Plus a hands-free portable neck fan you can charge with a USB to prevent getting mopped with sweat on hot trips, because you know what?? Staying cool is the new fashion and fans are the hottest accessory.

    It has three speeds to choose from and also lights up, making you more visible at night. Reviewers note that you should definitely put your hair in a ponytail (but that it's easy to unsnag if it gets caught).

    Promising review: "I took this on a tropical vacation and it was the smartest move ever. It looks like headphones so no one looks at you weird, and the airflow is great. They have rolling blackouts here but I have not skipped one beat. I pop on my fan and keep it breezy. I have also used it while applying my makeup so I don't start sweating before it sets. I take this thing all over the island and people ask where I got it once they figure out it's a fan. Plus the light makes me feel a little safer if I'm still outside during night time. I love the convenience of the charger but I've used it continuously for two hours so far and the battery held up just fine. The places you can take this and stay cool are just amazing. BUY THIS!" —Tiarra Reyes

    29. Tushy's travel bidet, because why shouldn't every single part of you travel in comfort, butt included?? This easy-to-use bidet is collapsible for easy travel, but super effective at spraying and gettin' the job done, if you will — no batteries or charging required. Campers and backpackers especially swear by this!

    Promising review: "We've had the original Tushy for a few years and love it, so we really miss having a bidet when we travel. We were a little skeptical about trying this simple product, but it has a great design! It produces a stream of water that's not as nice as the powered Tushy but still good, and it collapses/expands nicely and looks just like a water bottle, so we don't have to worry about any weird looks in a public bathroom. There are a couple of great videos online about the best way to use it, very helpful!" —Brittany 

    Get it from Tushy for $29 (available in three colors). 

    30. A rechargeable, dimmable light-up compact mirror you'll be especially grateful to have in your arsenal for trips that are of the "go! go! go!!" variety and don't leave you with much time to touch up your makeup or fiddle with your hair in a hotel bathroom. 

    Promising review: "Important travel necessity for your makeup bag. One of my favorite features is that it’s rechargeable. The battery lasts a long time and the light is substantially bright. The fact that it comes in one of my favorite colors is an added bonus. It’s also reasonably priced. I’ve seen similar AAA-battery-operated mirrors that cost more. It’s perfect for tweezing those stray hairs." —Kisha

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in three colors). 

    31. A refillable travel perfume atomizer so you can still rock your ~signature scent~ even when you're a bajillion miles from home. Each of these has a clear window so you can see exactly how much perfume is left and is delightfully TSA compliant, so you can bring your favorite smells overseas!

    Promising review: "I bought these due to traveling a lot for work and needing to cut down on the size of things in my carry-on bag for flying. I can bring four different perfumes now instead of one big one. They’re super easy to fill, haven’t leaked so far but I keep them in a sandwich baggie while traveling just in case. I would 100% buy them again." —Emily Rintamaki

    32. A PocketCor belt to *instantly* add five pockets to your human person in the blink of an eye, while miraculously staying flat and unrolled. Each belt has a zippered compartment and four elastic compartments perfect for storing your phone and other travel must-haves like your passport, headphones, room keys, and money. Bonus? This is moisture-wicking and quick dry, and washes up beautifully.

    33. A popular water-repellent laptop sleeve that'll give it a lil' extra cushion and protection in your backpack or the seat you perilously propped it on whenever you're on the move. It even comes with a second small bag so you can pack the charger to match!

    Promising review: "This thing is amazing and has saved my laptop on more than one occasion. I bought it many months ago but was inspired to write a review two days ago after walking 20 minutes in a rain and thunderstorm without an umbrella. My backpack, with everything inside was SOAKED. My shoes are still drying out even. While the laptop case was wet, my computer inside was completely dry! I was fully expecting my computer to be ruined when I pulled it out and I was in shock when it was completely fine. Aside from the rainstorm, I have spilled a few drinks inside my bag and it has never leaked into the case even a little bit. The outside of the case is a little stained from what I've put it through, and I have not tried to clean it, but it doesn't bother me at all. The quality is truly outstanding!" —Amanda Bacoch

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in 32 colors and 12" - 16" sizes).

    34. A portable Bluetooth retro-style keyboard to instantly fashion your tablet into a chic mini laptop when you're on the move. You're about to make a *lot* of friends at the airport asking you where you got this little gem.

    Promising review: "I've been seeing retro-style typewriter keyboards on TikTok for a while now. I aways thought, 'That looks pretty cool!' Decided to look on here and found this one. I just got it today and so far has been working great! I had no problems connecting the keyboard via Bluetooth, and the clicking of the keys is really nice, one of the reasons why I wanted to get this." —dee

    Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in 11 colors). 

    35. A compact portable Apple Watch charger so you never have to endure the agony of losing out on filling all your fitness rings just because your watch decided it was out for the count mid–travel day. One charge of this BB can fully charge an Apple Watch up to three times; plus, it easily attaches to a keychain to keep it handy!

    Promising review: "First off, stop reading this review and go buy it. For the price, this little device is amazing for camping or traveling. Yes there are other options to charge your watch, but those involve the cable attached to a power brick. This cuts out the cable necessity, so you can charge directly on the device — PLUS, it also works as a charger for your phone. You’ll just need to buy a separate USB-C to Lightning or Type C to Type C, if you have Android. Anyways, the build quality is great and is very lightweight. Do yourself a favor and go buy it." —Lenix. 

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (get this price by clipping the $3 off coupon on the product page; available in three colors).
