Tech and gadgets for the guy who swears he needs nothing and then uses all of it by New Year's. These are my picks, and not everything here is something I have bought myself. I may earn a commission from these links.
For the man who has lost his keys, wallet and bag in the same week. Slip one in each and the search party is over.
Apple AirTag 4 Pack
For the guy whose phone is always at 3 percent. A built-in cable means one less thing for him to forget at home.
Anker 20,000mAh Power Bank USB-C Black
A real printed photo to stick on the fridge, so Christmas morning and the family chaos live somewhere besides his camera roll.
Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 Camera
Glare-free and light enough to read on the couch while the rest of the family argues about the game.
Kindle Paperwhite 16 GB
Plug it into the TV he already owns and he will stop saying the app is not loading. Peace on Christmas morning for the price of one stocking stuffer.
Roku Streaming Stick 4K
Waterproof, so it survives his backyard playlist and the dishes you were going to do later. Loud enough that he will finally stop humming.
JBL Portable Flip 7 Speaker
For the man whose phone says storage is full every time you want a photo of the two of you. Rugged enough to survive his bag, small enough to forget it is there.
Samsung T7 Shield Portable SSD 1TB
One spot for his phone, watch and earbuds, so the cords stop taking over the nightstand. A gift he will use every single day.
Belkin 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Station
Turns the man cave into a mood and gives you a dimmer switch for the whole room. Cheapest upgrade in this entire list.
Govee RGBIC LED Strip Lights 65.6ft
The gift he says is too much, right before he plays it for six hours straight. Handheld for the road trip to your parents, TV mode for everything else.
