With both back to school and the winter holidays coming, now is as good of a time as any to start thinking about shopping for gifts.
In addition, Amazon Prime Day has been announced for October 13th and 14th so it is the perfect time to start making a list.
Below are some simple yet effective tech gadgets to get for any beloved one that won’t break the bank.
TCL 32S325 32 Inch 720p Roku Smart LED TV (2019)
2020 has been as important a year as any to upgrade your television.
Of course, spending thousands of dollars on a top of the line TV is possible, but these Smart TVs run about $125 and provide easy and free access to everything already available on Roku.
They are also easily integrated with other streaming mechanisms like Chromecast and can easily be connected to HDMI cables too.
The 32-inch set is the perfect size to be able to move around too if you are looking to host a watch party in your backyard.
Apple AirPods Pro
Perhaps one of the most obvious tech gifts for the 2020 holiday season is Apple’s most recent offering of wireless earbuds, the Apple AirPods Pro.
This is a high-end product that certainly caters to anyone who already uses an iPhone, and it will run about $200-$250.
These new earbuds include a better design, are water-resistant, and are extremely efficient in blocking out unwanted noise.
This is a great gift for anyone who is out and about and wants a high-quality way of listening to audio.
Nintendo Switch Lite
Another hot gift this holiday season is the Nintendo Switch Lite, which runs about $200.
As one might guess, the Switch Lite is a cheaper and smaller version of the Nintendo Switch and is even more portable than the Switch.
There are many of the same popular games available from the Switch as well as a plethora of additional digital offerings on the Nintendo eShop. The battery life is excellent on the Switch Lite too.
Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2
Portable speakers are always a safe gift for music enthusiasts and those who are looking to upgrade their sound systems.
This specific brand offers a variety that is both waterproof and sonically superior to other speakers.
These portable speakers are less than $100 and are especially powerful when bought in twos because they can be paired together for an even more full stereo surround sound.
Wacaco Nanopresso Portable Espresso Maker
Another great gift for anyone who loves coffee and is spending a lot of time at home is this easy to use espresso maker.
This model will brew coffee quickly and does not require a lot of work to use.
This is also a perfect gift for those working from home and will be a great kickstart to their day and a reminder of your generosity.
Monthly Subscription to Audible
An easy gift for someone who enjoys learning would be a monthly subscription to Audible.
With more people working from home than ever, having an audiobook on throughout the day is very possible. Anyone who subscribes to the service will be able to have access to up to three books per month and a large library of audio shows.
A subscription is $15 per month, $45 for 3 months, and $90 for 6 months. With Amazon Prime Day coming up, there will very likely be a special offer for this service too.
