As I'm going on a trip abroad with school, I've been looking quite a bit on Amazon for things to purchase to allow myself to be "Fully Tech-ed out" on this trip. To be able to do that, I've been looking for people's suggestions for cheep tech to buy, and unless you've got $500 for 1 item, I haven't really found any guides on essentials you should get.
The list you guys are going to read starts from about £10 and goes up to around £100. Of cause there are other options for the same sort of products, so I'd suggest looking around on Amazon or somewhere before you buy from these links.
1. Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Amazon
I purchased this Bluetooth speaker from Amazon a couple of weeks back and am pretty happy with the product I received. Especially for the price I paid.
£12.99
2. Portable 10000mAh Mini Portable Power Pack - Amazon
I purchased this Mini Portable Power Pack instead of an Anker one. I would definitely recommend an Anker power pack if you're willing to spend that little extra (Its like £4) but you then have to pay extra to buy a power cable (to charge the power pack) I personally couldn't be bothered so I purchased this one, and to tell you the truth, I'm very impressed. And I got this one stupidly cheep!
£13.95
Anyone who works with cameras often will carry more than one SD card with them. I normally carry a few as I record videos for my four YouTube channels so its nice to know I have extra storage available. I purchased this product when I had Amazon prime and I got free next day delivery on it, though I think now they have removed the Amazon Prime option on it. It also boasts about being water proof, which I can confirm is correct. Overall, I am very happy with this product and would definitely recommend it to any of you guys (Including the ones without a tight budget)
£8.99
Most people these days own a mobile telephone, so I don't really know why I have included it on my list. But then this post is called "Top 5 Holiday Essentials" and I 1000% believe that a mobile phone is required on holiday. Who doesn't wish to tell their friends what an awesome holiday they're having? They are also great as you can send pictures to your friends and social media followers to show them that your having a great holiday and that you're doing cool stuff.
5. Canon Powershot SX600 HS - Amazon
Now, I know normal people with a larger budget would buy themselves a Canon 750D, which, if you have the money would be an awesome purchase. This camera is on my list as it is an essential (for me) to take as many photos/videos as possible on holiday because you should always have something to remember your holidays by. This camera is small, compact and doesn't create completely massive files, which is especially good when you forget your spare SD cards.
£127.26
Now, I know this is a top 5, but I thought I'd add one that is only valid if your going for a nice summer holiday by the beach or something exciting like that. The final product I'd recommend would be a GoPro, the prices of GoPros vary from about £120 up to about £500 so if your going for a water sports holiday or a holiday where your going to do something that you might not want to take your normal camera on because you fear it may break, then buy yourself a GoPro as I have indeed found they are pretty much indestructible
Thanks for reading

Nice recommendations, I'd definitely recommend investing in a DSLR camera when possible as the quality really cannot compare to cheaper alternatives but whatever the budget, cameras beat phone cameras any day. I'm glad you're so excited for Pais aha.
