Over the past few years, my travel itinerary has grown exponentially. Between living about 11 hours away from family and dating a touring musician, I'm away almost as much as I'm home. And as any wanderer knows, one of the biggest challenges of constantly being on the go is keeping your phone charged. Whether you're using it for directions, communication, or entertainment, it's a lifeline when traveling.
Next month, I'm heading to Europe for the first time, where I will heavily rely on my phone for navigation. That's why I finally caved and bought a power bank — the Anker Zolo 10,000mAh power bank, to be specific. I'm kind of bummed, though, because now it's on sale for way cheaper.
During Amazon's Big Spring Sale (which runs through March 31), you can grab the Anker Zolo power bank (10,000mAh) for only $12.94 instead of the usual $25.99. That's 50% off and matches its best price ever. Plus, it comes in four different color options — I have the blue and it's a gorgeous pastel shade.
The Zolo power bank features a built-in USB-C cable to juice up newer phones and devices, plus USB-C and USB-A ports to plug in charging cables for other devices. That means for my iPhone 16 Pro, I don't have to worry about searching my luggage for another cable. My favorite thing about it, however, is that it's equipped with 30W two-way fast-charging. In other words: it won't take a million years to bring your device back to life like other power banks. There's also a digital display that clearly shows you the battery percentage at any given time.
It does have a little bit of weight to it, but ultimately, it shouldn't add much bulk to your carry-on. If you're looking for the best power bank for travel, I can't recommend the Zolo enough.

The latest iPad mini drops to a record-low price
The latest Apple iPad Mini is on sale via Amazon , bringing the 128GB model down to a record-low price. Each Wi-Fi-only model has been discounted by $100, so the 128GB version is $399, the 256GB tablet is $499 and the beefy 512GB model is $699. This deal applies to multiple colorways. This is one of the best Apple tablets , and the only choice for those looking for a compact iPad. It's the company's most powerful tablet in this size, as the A17 Pro chip is plenty capable. An M-series chip would have been nice, but it's not in the cards just yet. Having said that, this is still a full-featured iPad that can hang with its larger cousins. It offers support for the Apple Pencil Pro, which is handy, and the 12-megapixel camera on the rear takes decent shots, even in low light. The camera is also a decent choice for scanning documents and QR codes, as noted in our official review . The speakers sound much better than one would expect, though this has become the norm with recent Apple products. The display looks nice, but it is just a standard LCD with a 60Hz refresh rate. Apple tends to reserve its best screen technology for the higher-end tablets. There's no Face ID here, but that's not a deal breaker for me, as I actually prefer Touch ID or just quickly typing in a four digit security code.

Beats Studio Buds From Apple Are at Their Lowest Price and Cheaper Than AirPods, but Stock Is Limited

So you should have a pair of earbuds or headphones that make listening to music as special as it can possibly be. But there are tons of different options out there. How do you know which one works the best for you, and which headphones won't make you go broke? The Beats line is well worth trying out, especially if you haven't before, and it's as easy as heading to Amazon to get a pair. See at Amazon Head over to Amazon right now to get the Beats Studio Buds for just under $100, down from their usual price of $150. That's $50 off and a discount of 33%. An improved audio experience for a great price Whether you're taking calls on the go, zoning out with a podcast during your commute, or getting in the zone for a workout, earbuds have become an everyday staple. And while there are more choices than ever, it's not always easy to find a pair that strikes the right balance between sound quality, comfort, and cost. The Beats Studio Buds manage to deliver on all three fronts. They've got solid bass, strong active noise cancellation, and a surprisingly lightweight fit that doesn't feel fatiguing after long stretches of listening. These earbuds are also designed to work both iOS and Android devices, too. That way you don't have to make a choice about which device you want to use at any given time. Features like one-touch pairing, hands-free Siri access, and built-in controls add to the overall convenience, while the included charging case gives you up to 24 hours of total playback time (8 hours per charge, with the case offering a couple of top-ups before you'll need a plug). There's so much to love about these earbuds, most of which are features that make them fun and easy to use without weighing them down with choice or boring options. They're not overstuffed with gimmicks, and that's part of the appeal. Just a clean, polished audio experience that does exactly what you want it to do. This discount makes the Beats Studio Buds one of the best midrange earbud deals around. If you're in the market for a new pair or need a reliable backup set that won't leave you disappointed, this is an easy yes. Plus, consider the fact that you're paying just $100 and they become an even better deal. See at Amazon
