Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra for every photo
I used my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra for all my trip photos, including the shot above. With the same phone doing all the photography, having power on hand mattered on full days out.
Xiaomi and Duracell power banks for long days out
I used both the Xiaomi Power Bank 4i 20,000mAh and the Duracell 20,000mAh power bank when we were out all day. They gave me a way to top up away from a wall socket. If you’re choosing between them, see my Xiaomi vs Duracell comparison for the ports and published charging speeds.
Sony WH-1000XM5 for flights and ferries
My Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones came in handy on both flights, from Pune to Kolkata and from Kolkata to the Andamans. I also used them on the ferries between islands.
Noise 100W GaN Charger for quick top-ups
The Noise 100W GaN Charger was the adapter I reached for when I had a wall socket and wanted to charge my devices quickly.
