Top must-have holiday gadgets

Well, it’s that time of the year again! Everyone is talking about what sunny destinations they’re jetting off to this Summer.

There’s no doubt about it, counting down the days until your holiday is extremely exciting but getting organised and packing can be stressful (if you leave it until the last minute!) Knowing what items to pack – aside from shorts, summer dresses and flip flops – can be a chore.

So to make your life a little easier we’ve compiled a list of the must-have gadgets to pack in your case.

Portable charger

Having a portable charger is a necessity when you’re using your devices on the plane or by the pool. We mainly rely on our gadgets for listening to music, watching videos or snapping pics! Investing in a charger which is reliable and has a long battery life is important. After all, there’s nothing more frustrating than your phone shutting down just as you’re about to snap a great pic.

HyperJuice have a wide range of chargers for all of your Apple devices.

There’s also the Intocircuit Power Castle 26,000mAh portable charger for your other devices.

Portable speaker

Portable speakers are perfect for taking to the park or beach, especially if you’re in a group. Listen to your fave tunes this summer whilst you soak up the sun rays.

The Bose SoundLink Bluetooth Speaker is available in a range of colours and with 8 hours of battery you shouldn’t need to recharge often! It’s also the perfect size to fit in your bag.

Sea-Doo Seascooter Aqua Ranger

This fun and flashy gadget will turn heads as you propel through the water in style. The Sea-Doo Seascooter is great for snorkelling, scuba or simply whizzing through the water. It can reach speeds of up to 2.5 mph. You can even mount your GoPro onto it so you can capture all of the amazing footage and relive the experience over and over again.

Noise-cancelling headphones

Noise-cancelling headphones can be a blessing, especially when flying.
The headphones work by creating their own sound waves, which are 180 degrees out of phase with the penetrating waves, therefore cancelling out the unwanted noise.

An affordable entry level set would be the Sony ZX770BN, which you can purchase from John Lewis for £99.

If you’ve got a higher budget then consider the Bose QuietComfort 25, available for £250 from John Lewis.

GoPro

You can use your GoPro everywhere, whether you’re on water, land, snow or falling through the sky! Capture all of your adventures with its high quality camera. There’s so many places you can attach your GoPro:

• Helmet
• Surfboard/ snowboard
• Suction cup (attach it to your car, boat, motorcycle etc.)
• Chest mount
• Wrist mount
• GoPro stick

Camera

No holiday is complete without a great camera. The Sony A6000 camera has 16-50mm OSS Lens, HD 1080p, 24.3MP, Wi-Fi, NFC, OLED EVF and a 3 inch tilting screen.

This remarkable compact camera (available in black or silver) combines all of the great features you need to take the best photos. Seize every experience and be blown away when you look back through the photos. With a variety of interchangeable lenses at your disposal, you can use additional lenses to take wide-angle, telephoto, or close-up shots to suit every situation.
