Gate-side tech stop: this iStore sits in Terminal 2
In HNL’s Terminal 2, iStore is the go-to electronics shop when your phone cable dies right before boarding. It sits post-security in the main international terminal, so you don’t need to exit and re-clear. Think Apple-style accessories and travel tech in a compact footprint, aimed at last-minute fixes rather than full-on gadget shopping.
Expect standard airport pricing: a basic Lightning or USB-C cable often runs around $25–$30, and branded power banks can hit $50+. You’ll see headphones, chargers, travel adapters, and some tablet and phone cases. Stock leans toward current iPhone and iPad accessories, with a smaller section for other brands, so bring your own if you use something obscure.
Hours generally track Terminal 2’s peak flights, with doors open for early departures and closing after the final evening banks, roughly spanning the 06:00–22:00 window. If you land after a late interisland hop, don’t count on it being open. Staff can usually help confirm compatibility for Apple gear, but support for less common Android devices is hit-or-miss.
Priority buys here: a fast-charging wall brick, a fresh cable, and a compact power bank if you’re heading onto a 5–10 hour transpacific leg from HNL. Skip bigger items like headphones unless you’re desperate; prices on those are almost always better online or in town.
Tip: Check the cable and adapter in-store before you walk off; plug it into one of their demo devices so you don’t reach Gate G5 and realize it doesn’t fit your phone.
