1. 65W GaN charger
Gallium nitride chargers handle power more efficiently than silicon ones, so a 65W GaN brick is often half the size of a laptop’s original charger. With two USB-C ports and one USB-A, it can charge a laptop, phone and earbuds together.
What to look for:
- At least one USB-C port that delivers the full 65W alone
- USB Power Delivery (PD) 3.0, and PPS if you use a Samsung phone
- Power split when two devices are connected, listed in the specs
- BIS certification mark for India
Approx. ₹1,800 to ₹4,500 (Anker, Portronics)

2. 20,000mAh power bank with fast charging
20,000mAh is the sweet spot between capacity and weight. Real usable capacity is around 60 to 70 percent of the rated figure after conversion losses, which still means three or more full charges for most phones.
What to look for:
- USB-C PD output of 20W or more (45W to 65W if you want to charge a laptop)
- USB-C input so it refills faster
- Under 27,000mAh if you fly, since airlines limit power bank size in cabin bags
Approx. ₹1,300 to ₹3,500 (Anker, Ambrane)

3. Bluetooth item tracker
Trackers ping nearby phones on a crowd-sourced network to report their location. The JioTag (2nd generation), priced at ₹1,249, supports both Google Find Hub and Apple Find My, has a 120 dB alert speaker and IP64 splash resistance. The Apple AirTag adds Ultra Wideband for precise direction finding on recent iPhones, at a higher price.
What to look for:
- Which network it uses: Find My (iPhone) or Find Hub (Android)
- Replaceable battery
- Ultra Wideband (UWB) if you want arrow-style precision finding
JioTag 2: ₹1,249

4. Wi-Fi smart plug
A smart plug adds app control, timers and voice control to any appliance. Most work on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi without a separate hub. Some also track energy use, which helps you see what the geyser or AC actually costs to run.
What to look for:
- 16A for geyser, AC, iron or heater; 10A for lamps and chargers
- 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Alexa and Google Assistant support
- Energy monitoring if you want usage data
Approx. ₹900 to ₹1,500 (TP-Link Tapo, Wipro)

5. Adjustable aluminium laptop stand
Raising the laptop improves posture and gives the bottom vents more airflow, which can reduce throttling during long calls or exports. Aluminium also pulls some heat away from the chassis.
What to look for:
- Multiple height and angle steps
- Rubber pads to stop the laptop sliding
- Rated for your laptop’s size and weight
Approx. ₹700 to ₹2,000
Check laptop stands on Amazon →
6. Kindle Paperwhite
The latest Kindle Paperwhite launched in India at ₹16,999 with a 7-inch glare-free display, 16GB storage, a waterproof body, USB-C charging and up to 12 weeks of battery, according to Amazon. E-ink does not flicker or glare, so long reading sessions are easier on the eyes than on a phone.
What to look for:
- 7-inch, 300 ppi display
- Waterproof rating
- Warm light adjustment for night reading
₹16,999 at launch

7. Cordless handheld vacuum
Handheld vacuums are rated by suction power in pascals (Pa). Around 6,000 to 8,000 Pa handles car interiors and desks; higher numbers help with pet hair.
What to look for:
- Suction rating in Pa
- Washable HEPA or steel filter
- USB-C charging and at least 20 minutes of run time
Approx. ₹2,000 to ₹5,000 (Agaro, Eureka Forbes)
Check handheld vacuums on Amazon →
8. Motion sensor LED light
These use a passive infrared (PIR) sensor to detect body heat and switch on automatically. Magnetic strip versions fit inside wardrobes and under cabinets.
What to look for:
- PIR sensor range of 3 metres or more
- USB-C rechargeable battery
- Warm white option for night use
Approx. ₹400 to ₹1,200
Check motion sensor lights on Amazon →
9. Insulated steel bottle
Not every accessory needs a battery. A double-wall vacuum bottle keeps drinks hot or cold for 12 hours or more and survives desk knocks that would crack a glass bottle.
What to look for:
- Double-wall vacuum insulation
- Food-grade 304 stainless steel
- Leak-proof lid
Approx. ₹700 to ₹1,500 (Milton, Borosil)
Check insulated bottles on Amazon →
10. Cable organiser kit
With chargers for the laptop, phone, watch and earbuds, a desk turns messy fast. Velcro ties and adhesive clips keep cables routed and easy to grab.
What to look for:
- Reusable velcro ties, not single-use zip ties
- Adhesive clips that hold USB-C and Lightning cables
- Cable sleeve for the under-desk bundle
Approx. ₹200 to ₹600
Check cable organisers on Amazon →
