In general, an adapter is all you need for non-motorized appliances for examples camera chargers, phone chargers, laptops, etc however a converter is necessary if you intend to use appliances with a motor, such as a hairdryer or an electric razor. Note that a converter can also be used as an adapter; there is no need to buy both.
