For a gadget fan
For someone who enjoys computing and gaming, this Ergonomic mouse could be absolutely perfect. Trust is a well-known quality brand when it comes to computing supplies so you know it has been well designed for comfort and ensuring its suitability for long term use.
The Trust Bayo is perfect to minimise wrist strain with a vertical orientation design that brings the underarm and wrist into a natural position, relaxing the muscles in the hand, wrist and arm.
It also includes RGB lighting to keep it tech-savvy and up to date with modern aesthetics. Great to keep you going through the day with no pain. The Trust Bayo is available from Amazon UK for £29.99.
For a workaholic or someone who has never got their phone far away, how about a computer clip-on phone stand? This one is available from Lakeland for £9.99.
If you are buying for a child that desperately wants a smartwatch but you are looking for one that is designed for children and at a reasonable budget then maybe you should consider the Xplora XGO2 smartwatch is £99.99 directly from Xplora. It comes with a giffgaff sim card and allows children to make and receive calls, voice messages and texts but only with pre-approved contacts.
If you are looking to buy a mobile phone for someone who wants the latest phone specifications without the cost then the IMO Q4 Pro 2021 could be perfect. I reviewed it in more depth here and you can buy it from Tesco on the Tesco mobile network.
Earphones can be a great gift and these JLab Go Air Bluetooth earbuds are great with one charge giving 20+ hours of playtime. The earbuds can be charged in just 90 minutes, they are water-resistant so great for sport or in the rain, have passive noise cancellation and are really easy to set up.
With so many amazing features you would think they would be expensive but they are just £29.99 at Argos.
Kids love gadgets too but I know as a parent it is worrying how loud they try to listen to music to. The Buddyphones Play+ are perfect as you can not only limit the volume they listen to music at but also as they are Bluetooth you can be in control of what the kids are listening to without them even needing their own device! Available from Amazon for £44.90.
For a gaming fan
If you are buying for a gamer like my son Ben the chances are they get through lots of headsets after breaking them when they lose a game! These Puro Gamers are good value and currently £42.58 on Amazon so well worth a look.
