Best Travel Electronics

The right electronics reduce what you carry: one multi-port charger instead of three bricks, one pair of headphones that works on flights and trains.

What to look for

GaN multi-port charger
GaN chargers are smaller for the same wattage. A 65 W, 3-port charger can handle a laptop and phone together.
Noise-cancelling headphones
Active noise cancelling reduces engine drone on flights and trains, making long journeys less tiring.
Short, durable cables
Braided USB-C cables in 0.5–1 m lengths are easier to manage than long ones.
