iStore

Gate-adjacent tech stop for last‑minute cables and adapters

iStore sits past security in the main Terminal at Salt Lake City, handy if you realize at 6:30 a.m. that your only charger is still in the hotel wall. Stock skews Apple‑centric: Lightning cables, USB‑C chargers, AirPods, and basic cases for recent iPhone and iPad models. Prices run higher than Target or Best Buy; think $25–$40 for a cable that’s $15 in town, but still cheaper than arriving at your destination with a dead phone.

Hours typically track flight banks, roughly 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., though closing can slide earlier on quiet nights, especially on midweek days. The shop is small, so selection is focused on essentials: power banks, travel plug adapters for Europe and the UK, and some over‑ear and in‑ear headphones. You also see a few impulse buys near the counter, like $10–$15 phone grips and cleaning cloths.

Plan on quick in‑and‑out service; most purchases here are “my gate is boarding in 20 minutes” emergencies. Staff can usually point you to the right charger if you tell them your exact device model (e.g., iPhone 15 vs 11). If your flight leaves before 6:00 a.m. or after 10:00 p.m., assume the store is closed and bring a backup cable in your carry‑on.

Practical tip: before paying, check connector type and wattage on the box; make sure that 20W or 30W USB‑C brick actually matches your laptop or tablet so you don’t pay airport markup twice in one trip.
