We all know Black Friday is one of — if not the — best time to save hundreds on a laptop or big screen TV, but you shouldn’t forget about taking advantage of deals on lower-priced essentials like chargers and battery packs. These gadgets are easy to overlook, but if you’re still using the USB-A power adapter that came with your smartphone years ago, upgrading to a compact 30W USB-C charger will show you how much faster you can charge.
Similarly, a 3-in-1 wireless charger can help you clear your desk of cable clutter while keeping your devices fully topped up, while a high-capacity battery pack will keep your most power-hungry gadgets topped up while you’re on the go. The charging accessories below include standouts from Anker, Ugreen, and Baseus. The Qi2 magnetic chargers are compatible with both the iPhone and certain Android devices, including Google’s Pixel 10 lineup. If your New Year’s tech resolution is to spend less time waiting for your devices to charge, you’ll find everything you need below.
