Near the central gates in T2, Electronics Shop covers the basics
This small Electronics Shop in Terminal T2 sits along the main departures corridor, handy if you realize you forgot a charger after security. Expect the usual mix of phone accessories, basic headphones, travel adapters and power banks, geared to passengers on Ethiopian Airlines’ international routes out of T2. Stock skews practical rather than high-end gadgets, so think cables and plugs more than flagship smartphones.
Prices run higher than downtown Addis Ababa, as you’d expect airside in T2, so treat this as a backup rather than your main tech stop. For essentials like USB-C cables, universal plugs and low- to mid-range earphones, you can usually get in and out in under 10 minutes, even when several widebody departures are boarding from nearby gates. Payment typically works with major cards and local currency, helpful if you’re spending down those last few hundred birr before an overnight flight.
Don’t count on niche items like laptop chargers for specific brands; the selection leans heavily toward generic multi-tip adapters and standard phone gear. If your layover in Terminal T2 is short, prioritize a quick check here for must-have items like a power bank before you commit to food queues closer to the big international gates. One practical tip: test cables and adapters at the shop counter using your own device in T2 so you don’t board a 10-hour sector only to find a dud mid-flight.
