Best travel chargers
Chargers with a published folding plug, ordered from smallest to largest, so they don't snag in a bag.
For travel, smaller and foldable beats raw power. Folding prongs keep a charger from scratching everything else in your bag, and a smaller body fits better behind hotel furniture.
We only include chargers whose folding plug is stated by the manufacturer. Some chargers show folding prongs in photos without saying so in their specifications, so we leave those out until we can verify them.
All three accept 100–240V input, as published. You may still need a plug adapter at your destination.
Selection criteria
- A folding plug stated by the manufacturer.
- Published dimensions, so you can compare size.
- Ordered by published volume, smallest first.
Based on manufacturer-stated specifications, checked as of . Not hands-on tested. Commission plays no part in selection or order.
