Every Android phone user needs these 7 charging accessories

Get all your phone charging needs sorted this Black Friday.

Charging your phone is one of those daily chores you might not think about too much. Maybe you got a charger in the box, or you're still using one from years ago that still does the job. But there's more to charging your phone than just charging your phone.

Most devices these days support some form of fast charging, usually over USB Power Delivery (USB-PD). Qi wireless charging is becoming more common, especially at the high end. And maybe you're still sharing one charger between multiple devices, as you top up a phone, tablet, earbuds and maybe even a wearable or two.

Picking up the right charging gear can make a big difference to the minor inconveniences we're all familiar with. And with Black Friday now in full swing, with plenty of great Android deals out there, it's a great time to make sure all your charging needs are sorted.

These are our picks of some charging essentials that every Android owner needs, all of which you'll find discounted this Black Friday weekend.
