Tech & Phone

Right by T1 departures, this is the airport tech stop

Tech & Phone sits airside in Lomé–Tokoin’s T1 departure area, close enough to the main gates that you can keep an eye on boarding screens while you browse. It’s a small, basic electronics shop, but in an airport where options are thin, this is the place to patch up last‑minute phone issues before a regional hop or an overnight long‑haul.

Opening hours generally track the international bank: expect it to be open from early morning departures through the late‑evening waves, roughly 06:00 to 22:00. Stock leans practical rather than fancy. Think charging cables, cheap wired earphones, basic power banks, plus a mix of universal and region‑specific plug adapters suitable for Togo’s 220V Type C/E outlets.

Prices run higher than city shops, as usual. A basic Lightning or USB‑C cable may run the equivalent of €10–€15, and simple power banks sit higher. Quality is hit‑or‑miss; packaging skews generic rather than branded. Treat anything you buy here as a backup, not your main everyday gear, and check that cables fit your device before you pay.

Staff usually speak French, with some English, and can help match you to Micro‑USB, USB‑C, or Lightning if you show them the phone. Payment is typically in CFA francs, and many travelers report small purchases under about 10,000 CFA going faster in cash than by card. Final tip: test chargers and headphones at the counter using the shop’s outlets before you walk back toward your T1 gate.
