As students get ready to head back to school, we’ve wrapped up a list of our favorite tech accessories for you just under $20. iPhone Charger
We’ve found a solution for those pesky iPhone chargers that are two feet too short and break after a month. A bonus? They’re certified and even cheaper than the Apple version. At $15, we recommend trying this 6.5 foot cable iPhone charger, backed by a year warranty.
Headphones
You need a good pair of headphones in college. Whether you use your headphones to cancel out the noise of everyone talking around you on the collaboration floor of the library or to binge watch your new favorite show on Netflix. We like these Sony over the ear headphones at just $15. If you prefer in-ear headphones, we like this Panasonic pair that come in a variety of colors for just around $10.
Portable Charger
Your phone is always dying. The minute you take it off the charger to check your Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, you’re down to 38% battery. However, no matter how quickly your phone may die, you’re not always near an outlet to charge. That’s why we love this external power bank portable charger. It’s light and fits right in your pocket for just $17.
USB
Projects on top of papers on top of projects. A student is in dire need of a little space. Try this 32GB USB for just $13. We love it because not only is it cheap, but it’s also heavy duty. You can throw it around in your backpack or drop it on the concrete as you’re running to turn in your paper on time, and it still won’t break.
HDMI Cable (for computer)
The latest season of House of Cards just came to Netflix, and obviously, you’re planning on binge watching it until 6:30 in the morning. Instead of watching it on your tiny laptop screen, buy an HDMI cord and hook it right up to your TV. Try this Cable Matters HDMI cord for just $12
