‘Get Your Geek On’ Gift Guide
Forget gifts for him and her, we want to get a little creative with our gift guide this year. Like Christmas ham and roast potatoes, these gifts are a match made in heaven and feature a few of our favourite brands and products on the market right now. If you know someone who could always use some more tech in their lives this should be your first stop. Or, if you’re not afraid of ending up on the naughty list, find a little something for your own Christmas stocking.
Tech Head
He might be your dad or maybe your brother but one thing is for sure, he loves tech. If it’s a gadget, he’s got to have it. He’s just as likely to lose it over a crazy alarm clock, as he is to lineup for the latest smartphone. Avoid getting him more clutter and go for gifts that will both excite and (in order to maintain everyone else’s sanity) be useful.
Girl Coder
She’s smart, stylish and smashing gender stereotypes. This girl speaks python like it’s her native language and completely outstrips you in her knowledge of tech. She’s creative and all over the latest devices. Her sweet spot when it comes to gifts, where fun meets funky.
Gamer Guru
Their battle station is their pride and joy and their version of TV is Twitch. There’s really only one thing to get for a person with a passion this deep, something for their gaming collection. It may seem like they already have everything they need to feed their obsession, but there are always new ways to help their setup take a step up.
Home Designer
Please don’t get them another generic box of chocolates or bottle of wine, they have a home to build and they could use a hand. Function is imperative and design is always front of mind. They’re a curator of modern pieces, whether that’s furniture or electronics and they have many rooms to fill. A gift for their home is inherently smart, so starting with smart home gifts makes a lot of sense.
