Best Overall: Universal Travel Adapter
A universal adapter is the easiest choice if your trip includes multiple countries or if you want one adapter to keep in your travel bag.
Best for: multi-country trips, frequent travelers, and mixed device charging.
Check: supported plug types, USB-C wattage, fuse access, and whether it converts voltage. Many adapters do not convert voltage.

Best for: light packers and single-destination trips.
