Top Tech Gift Ideas for Holiday Season

Buying holiday gifts can be difficult, especially if you’re not sure what to buy your friends and family. As technology continues to improve all aspects of our lives, from work to play, there are many tech gift ideas for this holiday season that are sure to delight and impress everyone on your list.

Let’s take a look at some of the best tech gifts you can buy for everyone on your list this holiday season.

Smart Displays

Thanks to Amazon devices like the Echo Show, smart speakers with a smart display are very popular tech gifts on the market right now. Smart displays, which are devices that offer a screen and smart-speaker features built into it, now offer larger screens, louder speakers, and are even better equipped to play TV shows, movies, and music. Devices like the 2nd generation Echo Show and Google Home Hub allow users to know more about the weather and traffic before they leave their home in the morning and even watch their favorite YouTube channel while they get ready for the day.

Video Doorbells

One of the best tech gift ideas for the holidays is a video doorbell. Most people take security very seriously and with a video doorbell, your loved ones will be well protected this holiday season. For anyone on your list that has many Amazon devices or just prefers their products over Google’s, the Ring Video Doorbell 2 is a great gift for them. Smart doorbells, like the Ring Video Doorbell 2, offer many amazing features like voice-activation and even connect with other smart-home devices for a seamless connection throughout the home. For anyone on your list that is more of a Google fan and wants to connect their smart-home Google devices with their smart doorbell, the Nest Hello Video Doorbell is the best option for them. An amazing feature of these smart doorbells is that they come with a useful app subscription which allows users to monitor their home while they’re away.

Health Trackers

It’s the end of the year which means that many people are looking to kick their bad habits and become healthier for the New Year. A great tech gift you can get for the people on your list is a smartwatch or fitness tracker. Health trackers like the Fitbit Versa or the Apple Watch are perfect gifts for your loved ones, especially since one out of five U.S. adults plan to buy one of these health trackers this holiday season. Health trackers like the Fitbit and Apple Watch help users track their calorie intake, how much exercise they get in a typical day, and these devices can even be personalized with different colors, watch faces, and bands.

Mini Drones

Drones have become a very popular holiday gift for people of all ages. While drones can be expensive and too big for younger users, mini-drones are a great gift for the teenagers and young adults on your holiday gift list. Drones are becoming smaller, more portable, and even automatic. Many drones now offer the ability to be activated, or take a photo, with the simple wave of a hand, no remote control or smartphone required. Amazon even sells a very affordable mini-drone, named the Parrot Mambo Fly, which is easy to fly, has a camera feature, and only costs $53.

VR Headsets

One of the best holiday gifts you can purchase for anyone on your list is a VR headset. VR headsets have been out for a few years now and each year these devices become more sophisticated for a lower price. Samsung makes an amazing VR headset called the Gear VR Headset, powered by Oculus. This headset is lightweight, includes an easy to use the touchpad, and all for an affordable price. With a VR headset, users can live a virtual life, play games, watch concerts or sports events, become part of a movie, and so much more.

If you’re looking to buy a trendy tech gift for the people on your holiday gift list, these tech gift ideas for holidays is a great place to start. Tech gifts are becoming more sophisticated and the price of these gifts is dropping dramatically. If you’re looking to purchase tech gifts for your loved ones this holiday season but don’t want to break the bank, there are many tech gifts on the market right now that will allow you to do so.
