These are the 10 travel tech essentials I actually use in 2026. From capturing vacation memories and surviving long flights to keeping all of my devices charged while traveling internationally, these are the gadgets that consistently earn a place in my travel bag.

In this video, I’m sharing my travel camera, portable tripod, AirPods Pro 3, iPad Air, power bank, travel chargers, AirTags and more — including what I like about each product, what I think could be better, and which features actually matter when I’m traveling.

One of the biggest annoyances with international travel is carrying separate chargers and plug adapters for different devices and countries. The Anker Universal Charger simplifies that setup for me because it has built-in US, UK and EU plugs and works across 200+ countries and regions, so I can travel without packing a separate plug adapter for each destination.
It has 3 USB-C ports + 1 USB-A port, supports up to 100W total output, and can charge four devices at once — including a compatible laptop. That means I can connect my MacBook, iPhone, iPad and AirPods from one charger instead of filling my travel bag with multiple charging bricks.
I also really like the built-in smart screen. It shows real-time charging information including the local voltage range, power output and temperature, which is especially reassuring when I’m plugging expensive devices into outlets while traveling internationally.
The Anker Universal Charger is NRTL certified for safety and is designed to lock securely into the wall for more stable charging, even when multiple cables are connected.
