I’m taking my first international trip to the Philippines next month and I’m confused on what kind of adapter I need. I found this Site Plugs A and B look similar to those used in north america. I’m only bringing my phone, tablet, and steam deck. I read that I don’t need a transformer for those devices but I’ll still need an adapter. I was hoping someone could link me the right adapter I need. I tried looking on amazon but I don’t really trust the reviews on there anymore.
EDIT: for more context, my steam deck power adapter says. Input: 100-240v 1.2a 50-60hz. From my ubderstanfing, I won’t need a transformer for my steam deck but just an adapter. Someone posted This which seems like all I need.
Thanks!
The Philippines uses 115v 60hz, like America.They also use these three plug designs:
You may need an plug adapter if you run into the third one,
but you won’t need a transformer.Everything I’m reading says they use 220V/60Hz.
That’s what I found too
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country Is where I got that.
Looking into it more though; it seems they used to use both and have since moved to 220v for the majority of things.
Many plug packs (ac-dc adapters) are dual voltage and will handle 220v just fine. Check the label on the plug though. Most other things you will need a transformer unfortunately.
