Some people are easy to shop for. They have interests or needs that lend themselves perfectly to gift giving. But others are much more difficult to choose for.
Maybe their tastes are a bit too esoteric or too expensive to make for easy shopping, or maybe they already seem to have everything they want. Men, in particular, can be hard to shop for—otherwise, why would a tie be the standard Father’s Day gift?
If you’re having trouble coming up with unique gift ideas for men, don’t worry, because we’ve got you covered. We’ve put together this list of cool gadgets for men to suit every occasion.
Top Tech gift Ideas
With men being notoriously hard to shop for, it can be a struggle to find the perfect present. But whether you’re looking for an unusual digital gift or gifts for tech-savvy guys, we can help you find the ultimate surprise tech gifts for men who have everything.
1. 94Fifty Smart Sensor Basketball Pack
Got a guy in your life who loves tech—and basketball? He may have all the gear, but the 94Fifty is one ball we’re betting he doesn’t have. This basketball communicates with any smartphone via an app, tracking the data on his dribbles and shots and giving him instant feedback on his performance. With its 8-hour battery life, the ball can also act as a coach, walking him through drills and workouts. A digital gift that acts as both a basketball and a personal trainer? Way better than a tie.
If your guy is more of the photography type, why not get him what’s got to be the most unusual camera on the market today? The Panono is a spherical camera – in other words, a ball. To take a picture, you simply toss it in the air and it takes a 360-degree panoramic photo of its surroundings. This camera could spur him on to travel or inspire him to take more creative shots—it’s a cool tech gift the gift of cool and the gift of inspiration all in one.
Is your guy is the master of the backyard barbecue and the king of the grill? Then he’s sure to love the iDevice iGrill 2, a gadget that will give him a little more freedom to mingle and hang out with buddies while he grills, all while keeping close tabs on the food’s progress. This device allows the user to move up to 150 feet away from the grill, and get regular updates on the meat’s temperature via smartphone. He’ll never feel alone at the grill again.
4. Nixplay Seed Wi-Fi Cloud Frame
Does your guy have family pictures on display in his office, or is he an avid photographer himself? Then he’ll love the Nixplay Seed, a Wi-Fi Cloud electronic photo frame that allows him to display playlists of photos sent from his smartphone on a high definition screen. This frame takes photos to a new level, getting them off his phone or computer and into the real world for everyone—including him—to see, enjoy, and comment on.
