(SPOT.ph) While summers in the Philippines mean vacations and back-to-back bikini days, it also means being uncomfortably sweaty when you’re not at the beach or at a dreamy resort. Heck, it's hot year-round. There’s no getting rid of the sun—and we wouldn’t really want to, anyway—but there is cooling down with the help of rechargeable and portable mini fans you can bring anywhere and keep reusing. It can get overwhelming to choose one from the many options, so we narrowed it down to 10 based on battery life, size, weight, and speed.

Keep the heat at bay with these portable fans:

LINE Friends Swing Portable Mini Fan (P823)

If you can’t get enough of cute, then this portable mini fan from LINE Friends is for you. Choose from Brown the bear, Sally the duck, and Conny the rabbit, or pick a color based solely on aesthetic or vibes—no judgment here. Toss the slim fan in your bag on extra hot days and whip it out to cool down. The fan charges via USB-C, so you can also use similar chargers you already have.

Available on Shopee.

Pocket Halter Folding Fan (P85)

Rummaging for things in your bag and fitting it all back in is a hassle, and we totally get it. On top of the usual phone, keys, and powerbank, you also have make-up, sunscreen, and the rest of your house. Opt for this square hand fan if you’re looking to stack your stuff in a convenient way, minus the circular fan that might be out of place in your tetris field of a tote bag. This one from big bee on Lazada folds up like a flat compact and even has hoops for you to shoot a lanyard through in case you want to wear it around your neck.
