00:00You ever set your phone down on a cafe table in a foreign city and feel that little drop in
00:04your
00:04stomach? Yeah, that panic. That's why I went looking for the anti-lost foam lanyard every
00:10traveler needs, and I found five that are cheap, tough, and actually hold up on a trip. Let's go
00:16through them. First one is the cheapest and honestly the one I'd grab first, the universal
00:21wrist lanyard. It's adjustable, so it fits any wrist, and the loop works on an iPhone, a Samsung,
00:28a camera, USB drives, your keys, even an ID card. That's the whole trick, one strap that does your
00:34phone on a museum day and your keys on a beach day. 4,900 people bought it and it sits
00:40at a 4.9 and it
00:42costs $1.59. At that price you buy two and keep one in your bag. Next is the steel gasket
00:49patch
00:49lanyard, and this one fixes the thing that annoys me about most straps. The little patch slides in
00:55between your phone and your case, and a metal clip hooks through it, so there's no glue, no sticker
00:59peeling off in the heat. $3.20, 4.8 stars, over 4,000 sold. If you hate adhesive anything, this
01:08is
01:08the one. Then there's the 1.5mm colorful neck strap with a patch. Same slide-in patch idea, but this
01:16one's thin and light, so you barely feel it on your neck, and it adjusts down if you'd rather wear
01:21it
01:21short. It comes in a bunch of colors, which matters more than you'd think when you're trying
01:26to spot your phone in a pile of them at an airport. 296, 4.9 rating, 3,400 sold. Great
01:34everyday pick.
01:35Now if you want hands-free, the crossbody necklace strap is the move. It's a longer rope, so the phone
01:42hangs at your hip and you just grab and go perfect for theme parks, markets, anywhere you're filming
01:46with one hand and carrying bags with the other. It's built sturdy, thick cord, proper clip, 393.
01:54It's the priciest of the neck options, but it's the one I'd take on a full travel day.
01:59And last, the detachable one. This is the flexible pick, the strap clips off, so you can yank the phone
02:05free when you need it and leave the cord around your neck, and the other end doubles as a keychain
02:10clip. Colorful, adjustable, anti-lost the whole way. For 31, and it's got a
02:164.9 with 1,400 sold. Quality over quantity there. All 5 links are in the description,
02:24grab whichever fits your trip, or grab the $1.591 and call it done.
