Cool Travel Gadgets That can Stand the Test of Time

Cool Travel Gadgets for your phone and more:


New phones seem to hit the market every few months. And that is just for one manufacturers. Combining all makes and models, a new phone comes out in about every few weeks. It is hard to keep up with the newest versions of the smartphones, though it is even harder to make sure that the accessory you just got for your phone would still be valid after some time.

These gadgets and accessories would stand the test of time (at least for a little longer):

What accessories do you have that you think would be soon obsolete?

Bluetooth wireless speakers
- every new smartie phone comes with Bluetooth standard. It is how they easily connect to your headset, car audio, and speakers. This means that the new phones coming out in the next few months would be able to connect to these cool portable speakers

Bose® SoundLink® Bluetooth Mobile Speaker


Jawbone JAMBOX Wireless Bluetooth Speaker


Digital Camera
While smartphones have been imposing on the camera market for awhile, they are still no match for a good DSLR or a great waterproof camera like the ones below

Panasonic Lumix Waterproof


Nikon COOLPIX Waterproof


Canon EOS 5D Mark II


Nikon D3100 DSLR



Tablet, by no other name than iPad
Based on some recent (unscientific) tests by CNET "The five toughest gadgets you can buy," iPad can withstand quite a bit and still keep on going, making a great travel gadget that would last. Not only that, there are more and more apps being developed for it that work on several versions as well as software updates that make it relevant and improve performance. Also there have not been significant alterations to this line from Apple for quite awhile. I have my iPad 2 and I would not be able to tell nor have had any desire to upgrade to iPad 3.

Cocoon GRID-IT Organizer
- No matter what the gadgets are or the accessories that they come with, when you travel you need to get them organized. This device keeps your gadgets, wires, thumb drives, earphones and more in one place.


Travel Phone Chargers
Most chargers have a USB plug in on their body. And since every phone these days comes with a charging cord that has a USB male unit at one of its ends, the chargers would last past your multiple gadget changes.
Mophie powerstation mini - charge virtually any smartphone, along with a variety of other USB devices.

iGo Power Trip 4700
