Holidays have a way of reaching out to us. One minute you’re trick-or-treating with your kids, and the next you’re panic-shopping in the gift aisle at Buc-ee’s. But it is not necessary to be like this. With the right cheat sheet, you can keep the holiday spirit high and stress levels low.
Luckily, we did some planning on your behalf. We love playing with the latest gadgets and gizmos here just as much The VergeWe also love to recommend them. That’s why, after consulting with our expert team of writers and editors, we’ve put together a mix of gift ideas that won’t be missed again this time next year — from noise-canceling earbuds and e-readers to vintage-inspired Polaroid cameras. However, not every gift has to be lavish. Sure, a new gaming handheld is a great gift, but an affordable power bank is a great gift too.
The list below is just a snippet of what we’re recommending this holiday season. In the coming weeks, we’ll also be publishing guides specific to budgets and hobbies, whether you’re shopping for mom, dad, or even the avid tinkerer in your life. ‘After all, this is the season.
