Essential Summer Holiday Gadgets

A recent online survey carried out by Holiday Hypermarket found that 72% of the more than 2100 adults who took part, would sacrifice the usual holiday essentials (like sun cream, beach towels and swimwear), in favour of squeezing technology and power cables into their suitcases. Participants of the survey also claimed that they will be taking an average of six technology devices away with them on holiday this year. So we’ve decided to give you some suggestions on just what those six summer tech essentials might be. If you want to suggest others, then we want to hear your ideas – share them in the comments section!

I know that holidays are meant to be a time when we can completely switch off and unwind but sometimes it's nice to keep in touch with family and friends back home or simply share your holiday snaps on social networks. However, before taking your smartphone abroad make sure you check out our tips on using your device when overseas.

Of course if you are planning to take any electronic device away with you, please don’t forget to take the chargers, cables and relevant plug adapters if necessary.
