The Best Tech Gifts for Every Budget
From stocking stuffers to splurge gifts, these are the tech products our editors would genuinely be excited to receive.
Tech gifts hit differently — they either become things people reach for every day, or they end up in a drawer within a week. After years of product testing, we know which ones stick. These are the tech gifts worth giving, organized by budget.
Under $150: Apple AirPods Pro 2
When the AirPods Pro 2 go on sale (which they frequently do), they’re one of the strongest tech gifts available at any price. Best-in-class ANC, Transparency mode that sounds like you’re not wearing earbuds at all, and seamless integration with every Apple device. For someone in the Apple ecosystem, they’re an immediate daily driver.
Splurge: Apple Watch Series 10
The Apple Watch Series 10 is our pick for a tech splurge gift for someone who doesn’t already wear a smartwatch. It’s the thinnest Apple Watch yet, the health features are genuinely useful (not just marketing), and it’s something they’ll put on every morning without thinking about it.
