Travel Tech for a Stress-Free Summer Vacation

While planning for travel can sometimes be stressful, Verizon representative Zakir Burrow offers four technology tips for vacations.

This summer is expected to be the busiest summer on record! People are opting to hit the road given lower gas prices and discover nearby attractions or camp at national parks.

While planning for travel can sometimes be stressful, Verizon representative Zakir Burrow offers four technology tips that can make a vacation more enjoyable and stress-free:

· Stay Safe While Driving: Verizon’s new smart service, hum, makes it easier to stay safe on the road. From maintenance reminders that help you ensure your car is in in tip-top shape for the open road to a mechanics hotline in case you hit any bumps, you’ll have peace of mind so you can focus on what matters most: rest and relaxation.

· Never Miss Out on a Moment: Ensure that you always have enough battery and avoid fumbling around looking for a power outlet in the night. The Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charging Stand charges your compatible Galaxy device up to 1.4 times faster than standard wireless charging transmitters (when used with the included Fast Charge wall charger).

· Capture breathtaking sights: Whether you love snapping selfies or catching up on your favorite show while on the road. The HTC 10 has a crystal clear 5.2-inch 2K display and a 12 megapixel camera with optical image stabilization (OIS) in both rear and front cameras.
