You know what they say: "It's the thought that counts." Well, I'm sorry to break it to you, but if you’re looking for a gift for someone who works in technology or spends a lot of time on their phone, that level of thought just won’t cut it. If you want your loved ones to appreciate your generosity and thoughtfulness, take your gift-giving for Christmas 2022 to the next level. Here are the best tech-related gifts for people who love gadgets and gizmos.
Magic Leap
Magic Leap is a virtual reality wearable that features a field of view over 30 degrees. It has built-in eye tracking and a six degree of freedom controller. The Magic Leap tracks the head and hands, allowing the gamer to interact with virtual objects in the real world.
3Doodler Create+ If you’re looking for something a little bit different, 3Doodler Create+ is a 3D printing pen that allows you to draw in the air. It’s easy to use and can be used by kids and adults alike.
Power Bank
A portable power bank is the perfect gift for anyone who travels frequently. Many options are slim, lightweight, and sleek.
When selecting a power bank, choose one that quickly charges. Also, look for an LED indicator which lets you know how much power remains in the battery pack, so it won't surprise you at an inopportune time.
KidiBuzz G2 by Vtech
If you have a little one that loves tech and wants to get their hands on the latest toys, then this is the gift for them. The KidiBuzz G2 by Vtech is an interactive learning tablet for kids aged 4-10 years old. It’s packed with fun activities to keep your kid engaged and developing cognitive skills, memory, and problem-solving skills.
The KidiBuzz has two modes: learning mode which focuses on letters, numbers, and shapes as well as counting games; or game mode where kids can pick from 16 different games (including musical instruments). In addition to being able to play with it manually (however they want), there's also an activity book included so if they need some extra help completing tasks in the app then they can turn to it!
Oculus Go VR Headset
The Oculus Go VR headset is portable, comfortable and features decent battery life. The Go also has a built-in speaker, so users don’t need to pair it with headphones or external speakers. The best thing about this headset is that it is completely wireless and wire-free. If someone wants to watch a movie on Netflix or play games on an app like Minecraft, they just put the headset on and start watching!
