There’s no denying that it’s getting cold outside, with the Met Office issuing yellow weather warnings for ice and snow across parts of the country.
If you find that your regular old gloves aren’t doing the job well enough, then you might want to consider heated hand warmers. Fortunately, we have spotted a pair on Amazon that are being called a “winter must-have”.
These Ocoopa UT3 Lite Magnetic Rechargeable Hand Warmers are currently reduced from £26.99 to £19.99 for a pack of two. It is worth noting that the slight discount is only available for the next few hours before going back to full-price.
Said to provide “instant warmth” within as little as “five seconds”, these hand warmers will stop your hands going numb from the cold. There are three different temperature settings, with a single charge said to provide at least four to eight hours worth of heat.
Shoppers also love the “sleek” and “compact” design of both hand warmers that can be attached together via the magnets, or worn separately in your pockets. The “lightweight” design is said to be “40 percent lighter” than your phone, so you’ll barely even notice them.
There are no batteries required, as you simply need to charge them up with a USB. With their slim design and long-lasting battery, they will keep you warm when out dog walking, playing sports and many more outdoor activities.
With a 4.5 rating based on over 3,000 global reviews, it is easy to see why the UT3 Lite Magnetic Rechargeable Hand Warmers are classed as a “bestseller” among Amazon shoppers who say they are “worth every penny” and a “winter must-have”.

One five-star review read: “This little hand warmer is worth every penny! It’s sleek, compact, and easy to use—just a single button to switch between heat settings. Even on the lowest setting, it keeps me warm for up to 8 hours, which is fantastic for long days out. The quality really stands out; it feels solid and well-made.
“The design is simple but stylish, so it doesn’t look out of place in my pocket or bag. On top of that, it actually helps with joint stiffness and muscle tension in my hands, providing a bit of relief from the cold. Overall, it’s a great value for the price and has quickly become one of my winter must-haves.”
A second read: “Bought these for my wife who suffers from reynauds syndrome. Absolutely brilliant and she swears by them and takes them everywhere. Simple to charge with a USB cable included and several different heat settings, ideal to fit inside a pair of gloves for those cold winter days.”
Someone else simply said of the handwarmers: “Instant warmth for a cold morning, brilliant. Works as advertised.”
Some reviews have advised others that the battery life doesn’t last as long as advertised, as one three-star critique read: “Good design let down by a very poor battery life.”
