Adobe Photoshop with Generative AI

It seems like Adobe Photoshop has been the leading photo-editing software for as long as anyone can remember. Of course, there are so many good reasons that’s the case.

Photoshop is perfect for beginners because it has powerful features that are easy to use. Of course, it’s also perfect for more advanced users. If you can imagine it, you can make it happen with the myriad of tools in Photoshop. Plus, Adobe’s plans now also include Photoshop on the Web, so you can make edits from anywhere.

Now, on top of all that, Photoshop has exciting new features that are powered by Adobe Firefly’s Generative AI.

My favorite example is Generative Fill, which can add things to your photos using a simple prompt like the one in the image above. Another excellent new AI feature is Generative Expand, which can extend the borders of your images in a matter of moments.

Adobe’s new Generative AI features are like magic, and they completely change what’s possible in Photoshop. Right now, it’s the perfect time to try them yourself or to get Photoshop as a gift for any creatives on your list. That’s because Adobe offers Photoshop for as little as $19.99 per month.

Or, if you want your recipient to have it all, you can get the Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps bundle for $59.99 per month. This bundle gives the user access to more than 20 apps, Photoshop included.


THE COMFY Oversized Wearable Blanket

I personally received THE COMFY Oversized Wearable Blanket as a gift a few years ago. Let me tell you, it is easily one of the best presents I’ve received in my entire life.

THE COMFY is an oversized blanket that doesn’t just drape over you. Instead, it has sleeves and pockets like a giant fuzzy poncho. It’s so warm and cozy, with a soft fleece lining that feels great against your skin.

This awesome wearable blanket comes in more than a dozen different colors. It also has more than 63,000 5-star ratings on Amazon. This will be one of the hottest trending Christmas gifts of the year.

If you’re looking for a trending Christmas gift this year that’s affordable and unique, this is the one.

A nod from the popular show Family Guy created a nationwide resurgence of the wacky wavy inflatable arm-flailing tube man. And now, you can get one of your very own or give one as a gift for the holidays.

No, we’re not suggesting you get a full-size one. Well, not unless you own a used car lot. Instead, pick up Tubey – The Mini Wacky Wavy Inflatable Arm Flailing Tubeman. It’s an awesome pint-size replica that’s just 14 inches tall. Plus, it uses a real fan to inflate and flail!

If you want another option, check out the Wacky Waving Inflatable Tube Guy. It’s 18 inches tall, a bit thinner, and it’s half the price of Tubey.

Level Lock+

If you read our Level Lock+ review, you know how great Level’s latest smart lock is. As a matter of fact, if you’re looking for gift ideas for an iPhone user in search of a smart lock, this is one of the only models you should even consider.

Level’s latest smart lock — simply called the Level Lock+ — is all about Apple. Beyond mere HomeKit integration, the new Lock+ is also one of the first models to work with Apple’s Home Keys solution.

It lets you unlock your lock by simply tapping your iPhone or Apple Watch, and it worked wonderfully in our testing. You can also lend keys to other people to give them temporary or permanent access to your home.

The hot new Level Lock+ is available in Satin Nickle and Matte Black finishes. And it features a sleek design that simply looks like a modern deadbolt. That’s right… you don’t have to mount any bulk boxes on the inside or outside of your door!

Amazon Logo Available on Amazon

You can also get the older Level Lock Touch Edition for under $200 while it’s on sale for the holidays. This model opens with a tap of your finger as long as you have your phone on you.

That’s a fantastic price!

PlayStation 5

It goes without saying that the Sony PlayStation 5 is going to be at the top of so many lists this holiday season. Now that consoles are in stock everyone, it’s also not going to be a challenge to find a PS5 like it has been in the past.

In fact, you can even get a free game when you buy a PlayStation 5 console ahead of the holidays!

Just like the last console generation, the PS5 is blowing Microsoft’s latest Xbox consoles out of the water. Definitely take advantage of these special holiday bundles before these deals disappear.

Nintendo Switch

If you want something that will appeal to a wider range of gamers than the PS5, there’s another console you might want to consider instead.

The Nintendo Switch OLED and original Nintendo Switch are destined to be hugely popular yet again this Christmas season. If you want to give one as a gift, you should definitely consider ordering one now. Both models are currently in stock, but that may not be the case as we get closer to the holidays.

Also of note, the OLED Switch includes a free game!

Cards Against Humanity

If ever there was a game that needs no introduction, this is it.

Cards Against Humanity is nothing if not unique and original. The game’s creators call CAM “a party game for horrible people”. They’re not wrong.

Playing the game couldn’t be easier. One player asks a question from a black card and the rest of the players provide answers from a white card. That’s it… and yet that barely scratches the surface.

There’s no question that Cards Against Humanity is a fantastic gift. Or, if you know your recipient already has it, try one or more of the expansion packs below.

DASH Compact Air Fryer Oven

As popular as air fryers are, you know they’re going to be near the top of the list of trending holiday gift ideas this year. The problem, however, is that air fryers can be very expensive.

The DASH Compact Air Fryer Oven is a wildly popular model that’s actually affordable. It has 2-quart capacity that’s perfect for sides like French fries. I have tested it personally, and I can attest to how well it works. Even the veggie haters in my house were all over the crispy kale I cooked up in this air fryer oven.

The Ninja AF101 air fryer is far more popular, and it’s a great option if you’re willing to spend that much. If not, the DASH Compact model is a steal at just $49.99. There’s definitely a reason it has a 4.5-star rating on Amazon.

Friendship Lamp by Filimin

We can guarantee with absolute certainty that the Friendship Lamp by Filimin is going to be a top trending gift this Christmas. It’s absolutely brilliant.

If you have a friend or family member who doesn’t live nearby, the Friendship Lamp is perfect. It lets you reach out and connect in a totally unique way.

When you touch the Friendship Lamp in your home, your friend’s or family member’s lamp lights up. What’s more, you can connect multiple lamps all around the world so your whole family or all your friends can join in. An unlimited number of lamps can be connected.

Cheap Gift Ideas Under $50

If you’re on a budget or you have lots of people to shop for, don’t stress yourself out. It is an indisputable fact that gifts don’t have to be expensive to be awesome.

Even in the previous section of trending gift ideas, there are several awesome ones that don’t cost much at all. Examples include Tubey, Melinda’s Habanero Hot Sauce Variety Pack, and the CRAVEBOX.

In this section, we’re going to focus specifically on gift ideas that cost less than $50. Some are unique and creative while others are just nifty items that anyone would love to receive as a present.


Orastone Rechargeable Hand Warmer

The Orastone Rechargeable Hand Warmer is something that will be appreciated by anyone on your list. And that’s especially true when you consider how cold everyone expects it to be this coming winter.

Don’t you hate it when your hands get cold in the winter? Well, your recipient won’t be bothered by it anymore. The Orastone is an awesome little portable hand warmer that fits easily in a pocket or purse.

This terrific portable hand warmer heats up fast, which is hugely important. It also heats on both sides. That way, you can clutch it with both hands and warm them at the same time. And best of all, it runs for up to 4 hours on a single charge.

KIZEN Digital Meat Thermometer

If you have someone on your gift shopping list who loves to cook, we’ve got a terrific gift idea for your consideration.

The KIZEN Digital Meat Thermometer is the #1 best-selling meat thermometer on Amazon. It has more than 56,000 5-star ratings and 4.7 stars overall.

Long story short, it’s accurate, waterproof, and easy to clean. It’s also easy to read thanks to a nice big LCD display. Plus, the display is backlit so you can still see it clearly when grilling at night.

iFox Portable Bluetooth Shower Speaker

I use the iFox Portable Bluetooth Shower Speaker personally, and I received it as a gift a couple of years ago. I have to tell you, it’s one of my favorite gifts that I’ve ever received.

This awesome little speaker is IPX7 water-resistant, so you can literally submerge it in water and it’ll still work. It’s perfect for the shower, but also for a swimming pool. That’s right, this speaker actually floats!

Stream your favorite songs or podcasts for up to 10 consecutive hours thanks to this speaker’s great battery life. This is easily one of the best gift ideas you’ll come across this year.

Do you know why the LifeStraw Personal Water Filter is a best-seller every single year during Black Friday and Cyber Week? It’s because people love giving the LifeStraw as a gift.

If you have any outdoorsy people on your Christmas shopping list, the LifeStraw is perfect. It filters water on demand so that you can make just about any water source potable.

The LifeStraw is a must-have item for hiking, camping, and anything else involving the great outdoors.

KIZEN Collapsable Solar Lantern

Just like the LifeStraw, the KIZEN Collapsable Solar Lantern is a must-have for campers and hikers. But its utility extends much further than that. I actually keep one on the rear shelf in my car in case I ever break down at night.

As the name suggests, the KIZEN Collapsable Solar Lantern is an LED lantern that collapses so that it’s easy to carry. It fits inside just about anything, and it can definitely be a lifesaver. It can recharge using a USB adapter or from the sun, of course. And it runs for up to 10 hours on a full charge.

Anyone in search of a heartfelt gift that’s unique and creative is going to love I Wrote a Book About You.

This delightful little book is a fill-in-the-blank book that you complete before you give it as a gift. The idea is that you keep the recipient in mind as you fill it out, and everything you write is about them.

The author says the book can be filled out in about an hour, so it won’t even take up much of your time. This is one of the sweetest gift ideas you’ll come across.

Can a pair of wireless earbuds that cost less than $25 really be good?

The answer is a resounding yes.

The TOZO T10 Bluetooth Earbuds have a whopping 222,000 5-star reviews. That is absolutely incredible for any product, let alone a pair of low-cost earphones. If you want to give wireless earbuds as a gift, but you don’t want to cough up the cash for AirPods, these are a great low-cost alternative.

Maximo Fitness Foam Roller

At less than $30, the Maximo Fitness Foam Roller is one of the most affordable options out there for a good foam roller. It’s also longer than comparable rollers, and more durable.

This is an awesome and cheap gift idea for anyone on your holiday shopping list who loves working out or doing yoga. It’s also great for physical therapy, which is what I’ve been using it for lately.

Magic Slushy Maker Squeeze Cup

In a word, the Magic Slushy Maker Squeeze Cup is awesome. It might be aimed at kids, but it’s such a great gift for anyone.

All you do is keep it in the freezer so the special liquid in the squishy walls stays cold. Then pour in any drink, squeeze the cup for a minute or two, and you’re done!

You can use any juice you want, and it’ll transform into a tasty smoothy. Or, if you’re an adult, mix in some alcohol for a delicious cocktail.

If you want to give someone an awesomely unique gift, check out the Costa Farms Mini Succulents 25-pack.

These are real live plants that come potted in soil. Also, they’re succulents so they’re easy to maintain and difficult to kill. Each plant stands about 2 inches tall, and they look amazing. I have personally ordered this set as a gift multiple times over the years. People absolutely love them!

Of course, there is one thing to keep in mind if you take advantage of gift ideas like this. Since these are living plants that need sunlight and water, you’ll need to care for them yourself for a while if you buy them too far in advance.

Best Gifts for Apple Fans

Apple devices are widely beloved for a few key reasons. They typically feature gorgeous designs and services that integrate seamlessly across devices. But there’s also a pretty obvious downside to Apple products: They’re often very expensive.

For that reason, Apple deals are crucial so that people can save money when they buy Apple’s latest and greatest products. But if you have the means, you can also make an Apple lover’s day by gifting them the Apple device they’ve been waiting for.

Another option is to go for a lower-cost Apple gadget, like an AirTag or a MagSafe charger. Of course, you can also gift someone an accessory to compliment the Apple devices they already own.

In this section of our big gift guide, you’ll find some great gift ideas for the Apple fan in your life.


AirPods

Apple AirPods ProImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

When it comes to giving Apple products as gifts, nothing is more popular than AirPods.

Apple’s wireless headphones have quickly become the most popular headphones on the planet. They work great with any Apple device or with Android phones, laptops, tablets, and anything else that supports Bluetooth.

Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C are by far the most popular model, and they have a deep discount if you buy a pair now.

Amazon Logo Available on Amazon

Second-generation AirPods Pro feature a brand new wireless charging case with a built-in speaker and improved Find My support. The earbuds themselves have the new H2 chip, better noise cancellation, and a few more improvements. I love the fact that you can finally adjust your volume on the AirPod Pro stems!

AirPods Max are among the best-reviewed over-ear noise cancelling headphones on the planet. The problem is that they’re extremely expensive.

$549 is more than some people spend on a computer or a smartphone. Thankfully, Amazon has huge discounts right now.

Check out our in-depth AirPods Max review for more info.

Next up, we have AirPods 3.

They look a lot like AirPods Pro, but they don’t have noise cancellation. They still offer fantastic sound quality and great battery life though, and they cost a lot less than the Pro model.

Finally, if you want to spend as little as possible, entry-level AirPods are available with a great discount for the holidays.

WAITIEE 3-in-1 Wireless Charger

WAITIEE 3-in-1 Wireless ChargerImage source: WAITIEE

Getting a great gift for the Apple fan in your life doesn’t have to mean spending a fortune. There are plenty of affordable accessories that make fantastic gift ideas.

One great example is the WAITIEE 3-in-1 Wireless Charger. It lets you charge your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all at the same time.

This model supports fast charging and it has a nifty blue light that “breathes” as it charges your Apple gear. It also has more than 33,000 5-star reviews on Amazon, so you know it’s one of the best models out there.

Apple MagSafe Charger

Another terrific gift for Apple fans that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg is the MagSafe charger.

If you know your recipient has a newer iPhone model from the iPhone 12, iPhone 13, or iPhone 14 series, a MagSafe charger is an awesome gift. Apple’s AirPods Pro and AirPods 3 also support MagSafe charging.

MagSafe has an awesome charger design that lets you charge your devices wirelessly with a secure magnetic connection. Even if your recipient already has one, they’ll love getting another that can be left in a different location like the office.

iPad

Apple 10.2-inch iPadImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

Most of Apple’s iPads cost a whole lot of money. You could literally buy five Chromebooks for the price of one iPad Pro. But Apple also makes a reasonably priced iPad model, and it’s a fantastic gift idea for the Apple fan on your list.

The 10.2-inch iPad is fast and smooth, just like all the other iPad models Apple makes. But instead of costing an arm and a leg, it starts at $329. Better yet, there are often deals and discounts you can take advantage of at Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and other retailers.

Apple Watch

Apple Watch Series 7 and SEImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

Apple just released several new Watch models.

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Apple Watch Series 9 represent the latest and greatest Apple has to offer. Needless to say, any of them would make a fantastic gift for any Apple fan in your life.

Or, if you want to spend a little less money, you can take advantage of the various Apple Watch SE discounts available online.

And if you want to be sure you’re getting the best price possible, be sure to check our roundup of the best Apple Watch deals available now.

Portable Wireless Charger for Apple Watch

HUOTO Portable Wireless Charger for Apple WatchImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

If the Apple fan on your list already has one of the aforementioned Apple Watch models, there are still some accessories that make awesome gift ideas.

Our favorite is a Portable Wireless Charger for Apple Watch.

As fantastic as Apple Watches are, they do have one shortcoming that everyone can agree on. Battery life isn’t impressive at all. In fact, I’m lucky if I can get a day and a half out of my Apple Watch Series 7.

The Portable Wireless Charger for Apple Watch by HUOTO is a tiny portable gadget with a built-in wireless charging disc. It works with every Apple Watch model that has ever been released.

Simply pop your Apple Watch on and press the button, and you can charge your Watch anywhere. This model also has a 1,400 mAh battery, so it packs more than enough juice to fully charge any Apple Watch model.

Apple TV 4K

Apple TV 4KImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

When it comes to streaming media players, Fire TV Sticks and Roku boxes are the most popular options out there. But an Apple fan would never opt for one of those devices.

Instead, the Apple TV 4K is the only real option to stream all your favorite movies and TV shows.

It’s difficult to argue that the Apple TV isn’t the best and most user-friendly streaming box out there. It has an app-based UI that’s reminiscent of the iPhone and iPad. It also supports all the most popular streaming apps out there.

Plus, the newest version has a redesigned Siri remote that doesn’t suck anymore!

Christmas-Themed Gift Ideas

If you’re gift-shopping for a child or someone in your immediate family, a Christmas-themed present probably isn’t the best idea. But there are so many people out there who absolutely love Christmas.

And if you have someone like that on your list, we’ve got some great Christmas gift ideas for you to explore.


Amazon Christmas Gift Card

Amazon Christmas Gift CardImage source: Amazon

Some people think gift cards don’t make good gift ideas. I humbly beg to differ.

A Christmas-themed Amazon gift card is a fantastic gift. If someone on your list shops on Amazon all the time, why not let them buy things they really want or need?

I’m not saying you should get one for your wife or child. In that case, yes, a gift card is a bit impersonal. But most people on your list this holiday season would probably love the opportunity to spend that money any way they want.

While we’re on the topic of gift cards, you should definitely take a look through BGR’s comprehensive guide on the best Amazon gift card deals.


Elf Card Scramble Board Game

Card games and board games have seen a huge resurgence over the past few years. It’s a fantastic trend for so many reasons. Having another fun way to actually interact with people in person is awesome, after all.

Anyone in search of a fun Christmas-themed game to give as a gift should definitely consider Elf Card Scramble.

As you can undoubtedly surmise from the image above, this is a board game based on the movie Elf. It also mixes in the card game angle, and it’s an absolute blast to play.

It might not be the best gift idea for some younger children, because it could be too complicated for them to enjoy. But for older kids, teenagers, and adults, Elf Card Scamble is so much fun!

WoodWick Crackling Wick Candle

Nothing says “Christmastime” like the sound of a crackling fire. Of course, not everyone has a fireplace in their homes.

That’s where a WoodWick Crackling Wick Candle comes in.

First of all, WoodWick candles feature a beautiful design. There are also so many delicious scents, including a few that are specific to Christmas. But the best part is the unique wooden wick that makes a crackling fire sound as it burns.

We love these unique WoodWick candles, and they make terrific gifts.

National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation Playing Cards

AQUARIUS is the company behind the Elf Card Scramble game we recommended before. Now, we have another fun option from the same brand.

The Christmas Vacation Playing Cards deck makes it even more fun to play your favorite card games. Every card in the deck is based on the classic National Lampoon movie starring Chevy Chase.

This is a simple Christmas gift idea, but it’ll definitely bring a smile to anyone’s face.

Mochi Christmas Squishy Toys

Don’t even think about suggesting that Mochi Christmas Squishy Toys are only for kids.

Sure, they make a great gift idea for young children. But plenty of adults would also love to receive these cute little characters as a present for Christmas.

These little squishy does are great to arrange around your office desk around Christmastime, for example. Or, you can include them in your Christmas decorations if you’re having friends and family over for the holidays.

Mochi Christmas Squishy Toys are very cute and VERY squishy. They’re also quite popular though, so there’s always a chance that they’ll sell out.

Christmas Scented Candles Gift Set

The WoodWick Crackling Wick Candles we mentioned above are always great Christmas gift ideas. But while they’re often associated with Christmas, some people want candles with an even clearer association.

You’ll find a great Christmas Scented Candles Gift Set available this year. This set includes four different candles that are all Christmas-themed.

One candle has Santa on the lid, and another has Rudolph. You’ll also get a snowman candle and a gingerbread cookie candle in the set. In addition to the art on the lids, each of the four candles features a reindeer pattern in a different color around the sides.

Women’s Christmas Socks

Socks are known far and wide as the quintessential gift for dad around Christmastime. Well, this year you’re going to have a chance to change things up.

The Women’s Christmas Socks gift set on Amazon includes 15 pairs of Christmas-themed socks. Each pair has a different print on it, and they’re all fun and festive.

What makes these socks unique, however, is that they’re Christmas socks for women instead of men. That way, you can give mom a taste of her own medicine… and she’ll love it!

Printualist Custom Face Crop Wrapping Paper

I can assure you with complete confidence that if you give someone Printualist Custom Face Crop Wrapping Paper as a Christmas gift, they will remember it forever.

This awesomely unique Christmas gift is custom wrapping paper that comes in a variety of widths and lengths. You simply supply a photo and Printualize’s software removes the background and crops it for you. Then, you can adjust the zoom and make edits before seeing the finished product.

It’s hilarious!

In addition to the design shown above, there are also other options like an outer space background or patterns like hearts and presents. If you have someone on your gift list who has a great sense of humor, this is a clear winner.

Best Gifts for Gadget Lovers

With more than 40 years of combined experience, BGR’s shopping experts have learned a lot about gift-giving. And if there’s one lesson we now want to impart to our readers, it’s this: People love receiving gadgets as gifts.

It doesn’t even have to be a pricey piece of tech, like a TV or a laptop. People young and old simply love nifty tech. So, in this section, we’re going to recommend several gift ideas that are perfect for any gadget fan in your life.

Some of our recommendations cover small, inexpensive gadgets. Others are pricier gizmos that might make the perfect surprise for your significant other. Whatever the case, there’s something here for all the gadget lovers on your list.


Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige Electric Toothbrush

Rechargeable electric toothbrushes are all the rage right now. It’s pretty rare that tech trends cover products that are actually good for your health, so now is the time to take advantage.

If you want to give the very best electric toothbrush as a gift this year, there’s only one real option. It’s the Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige Electric Toothbrush.

The Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige is more than just a fancy name. It has all the latest and greatest features you can think of, plus a few features that you would never think of.

One example is SenseIQ technology, which senses and adapts as you use it. There’s even an AI-powered smartphone companion app that makes recommendations to help you improve your brushing technique and habits.

The Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige is by far the most impressive electric toothbrush we have ever tested here at BGR. It’s also something that people on your gift list might not buy for themselves since it’s on the pricey side. That’s one of the reasons why it’s the perfect surprise gift.

Or, if you want a couple of cheaper options, check out the Philips Sonicare One and the Aquasonic Black Series.

The aforementioned Philips Sonicare 9900 Prestige is the king of electric toothbrushes. And for many of the same reasons, the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra Robot Vacuum and Mop is the king of robot vacuums.

Roborock’s S7 MaxV Ultra is one of the smartest and most sophisticated robot vacuum and mop combos in the world. It quite literally has all of the best and most advanced features from other high-end models, and many features that you won’t find anywhere else.

For example, the S7 MaxV Ultra takes self-emptying to the next level. In addition to sucking out all the dirt and dust, Roborock’s base station washes and cleans the mopping pad, too. Then, it refills the water tank with fresh water so it’s ready to go next time!

You can read all about this impressive model in our Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra review. Trust us, if you get one for someone on your list this year, it’ll be the best gift they receive.

Hisense PX1 4K Triple-Laser Ultra Short Throw Projector

Hisense PX1 4K UST ProjectorImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

If budget is no issue and you’re looking for a gift that will blow away any gadget lover, we’ve got just the thing.

The Hisense PX1 4K Ultra Short Throw Laser Projector is a 100-inch home theater screen in a surprisingly compact little package. From a distance of about a foot away from your projector screen or wall, this fantastic projector can beam a massive, crystal-clear picture that’s bigger than any TV you’ve ever seen.

With 2,000 ANSI lumens of brightness, this ultra short throw projector works better than most in rooms with the lights on. Also, if you invest in a decent projector screen, you’ll find that the colors are remarkably vivid, and the blacks are nice and dark.

I’ve been testing this triple-laser projector, and I have to say, I am thoroughly impressed. There’s a lot to love, but the one thing I keep coming back to is the brightness.

2,000 ANSI lumens is impressive on paper, sure. But when combined with the Hisense 100-inch ALR projector screen, I am blown away by how bright and crisp the picture quality is. In a dark room, it’s truly remarkable. But even with the lights on, 

All in all, this is a stunning home theater projector at a fair price. What’s more, at the time of this writing, the PX1 on its own is $800 off at several major retailers!

Platin Monaco 5.1.2 wireless surround sound system

Platin Monaco 5.1.2 surround sound speaker systemImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

We highly recommend the Hisense PX1 laser projector, as noted above. But as good as that ultra short throw projector is, you’ll still need a sound system to go with it.

Of course, a high-quality sound bar or surround sound speaker system isn’t just for projectors. No home theater setup is complete without one. And now, there’s a great option that I’ve been using for a while now, and it’s one of the best systems I’ve ever used in this price range.

The Platin Monaco 5.1.2 wireless surround sound speaker system is easily the most impressive sound system I’ve tested in years. The speakers and subwoofer are wonderfully compact and easy to set up. Yet they deliver powerful, crystal-clear sound that completely transforms your movie-watching and gaming experiences.

The Monaco 5.1.2 is the latest and greatest model from Platin. It features several upgrades compared to the original 5.1 model, but my favorite is the addition of two up-firing front satellite speakers. They give you a far more immersive audio experience — it truly feels like you’re sitting in a movie theater.

Of note, this system also features WiSA support, which means you’re getting the highest possible quality of wireless HD audio.

The Monaco 5.1.2 wireless surround sound speaker system comes with seven main components. You get a center channel speaker, two front satellite speakers, two rear satellite speakers, a subwoofer, and a WiSA SoundSend puck. Plus, everything is wireless, so the setup is simple.

This is by far the most impressive surround sound setup I’ve tested in a long, long time. It retails for $1,499, but the sound quality is on par with systems that cost four or five times that much.

If you have an audiophile in your life, this is one of the best gift ideas you’ll find this Christmas.

Bose SoundLink Color II portable Bluetooth speaker

Bose SoundLink Color II Portable Bluetooth SpeakerImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

Portable speakers are hugely popular right now. That makes sense, of course, since it’s so great to be able to listen to music and podcasts anywhere, anytime. Of course, this trend also makes a portable speaker one of the best gift ideas of 2023.

If you want something that’ll really blow your recipient away, you need to check out the Bose SoundLink Color II portable Bluetooth speaker.

Everyone knows that Bose is among the best when it comes to sound quality. That’s true of the company’s speakers and headphones.

While most models are pricey, there are a few different options that are quite affordable. One such option is the SoundLink Color II, which retails for $129. That’s the same price as a pair of entry-level AirPods!

This compact, portable speaker packs huge Bose sound into an enclosure that measures just 2.2 x 5 x 5.2 inches. That means you can take it with you anywhere and enjoy amazing Bose-quality sound. It’s also IPX4-rated for water resistance, so you can take it to the pool without worrying about splashes or even a quick dunk.

When it comes to wireless headphones, there are a few brands that are clear market leaders. And there’s no question that Bose is near the top of the list.

The Bose QuietComfort 45 noise cancelling headphones are among the most popular headphones that Bose has ever released. They offer everything that people loved about the previous-generation model, and more. Bose’s sound quality is better, the company’s active noise cancelling tech is better, and there are more personalization options than ever before.

Bose QC45 headphones aren’t cheap, but they’re worth every penny. They’re also bound to go on sale with deep discounts ahead of the holidays this year.

Amazon’s Echo Dot is a device that needs no introduction. It’s also a device that any recipient will love even if they already have several of them at home. Can a person really ever have too many Echo speakers?

Alexa is a game-changer. And having hands-free access to Alexa in any room with an Echo Dot speaker is a necessity for so many people out there. You can ask questions, control your smart home gadgets, and even stream music whenever you want. Of course, all that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Make sure you check out our Echo Dot deals roundup for all the best sales on Amazon’s most popular Alexa speakers.

The Apple AirTag has quickly become the most desirable Bluetooth object tracker out there. Of course, it’s pretty easy to see why.

AirTags don’t just feature a better hardware design than rival trackers. They also have a massive secure network of Apple devices to work with. That means you can find lost items practically anywhere, not just when you’re within Bluetooth range.

Whether you put your AirTag on a keychain, in a person, on luggage, or even on your dog, you can rest assured that you’ll be able to find it when you need it. That’s what makes Apple’s AirTag such a terrific gift.

The Chromebook 311 Spin is surprisingly affordable for a convertible laptop. You can use it like a traditional laptop, of course, and it’s great. Or, you can spin the screen around and fold it down to use as a tablet.

This wildly popular model features an 11.6-inch touchscreen display, an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of fast RAM, and 64GB of eMMC storage. There are discounts all the time on Amazon, so it’s easily one of the best values out there.

Polaroid Hi-Print Portable Photo Printer

Polariod Hi-Print Portable Photo PrinterImage source: Polaroid

I test hundreds upon hundreds of new gadgets each year. After all, it’s a big part of my job. Despite spending time with all these nifty new gizmos, there are a few things that I always recommend to friends and family when they ask me for gift-giving advice.

The Polaroid Hi-Print Portable Photo Printer is always at or near the top of my list of recommendations.

One of the many great things about smartphones is that you get to carry an awesome camera with you at all times. Sure, you can look at those photos on your phone or post them on a social network like Instagram. But there will always be something special and personal about a printed photo.

The Polaroid Hi-Print is nice and compact so you can take it with you anywhere. It connects to your phone via Bluetooth and prints awesome 2 x 3 photos of any picture that’s on your smartphone. Also, it takes less than 50 seconds to print a photo, which is speedy for a portable printer.

The Meer YG300 Mini Portable Projector is so cool!

Just like Kodak’s compact portable printer, you can bring this Meer projector anywhere. It’s not quite as tiny, but it’ll easily fit in just about any backpack or a large purse.

Connect the YG300 to your smartphone, laptop, or another video source and you can beam a nice big picture onto any wall.

You can even hook up a Nintendo Switch or another game console so all your friends can play along. Or, plug in a Fire TV Stick or Roku Stick and you basically have a portable TV you can take with you anywhere.

This is a very cool gift idea that any gadget lover can appreciate.

Fitbit Versa 4 Health & Fitness Smartwatch

Buying someone a fitness tracker as a gift is not advised. Many people will take it the wrong way and think you’re telling them to lose weight.

But giving someone a Fitbit Versa 4 Health & Fitness Smartwatch as a gift is an entirely different story. Yes, it’s a fitness tracker, but it’s also a full-featured smartwatch that works with any iPhone or Android phone!

The Versa 3 battery lasts for about a full week on one charge, which is much longer than any Apple Watch out there. It also has Alexa built right in and supports text and app notifications. It’s a gadget lover’s dream, and it’s a gift that anyone on your list would love.

Fire TV Stick 4K

It seems like every TV out there these days is sold as a “smart TV”. But if you ask us, a TV isn’t truly smart unless it has a smart operating system that you love.

Pretty much everyone out there loves Amazon’s Fire TV platform. And that’s what makes the Fire TV Stick 4K such a great gift idea. It has great features, it’s fast, and it supports all the streaming apps and services your recipient might want.

If you want the latest cutting-edge model, check out the Fire TV Stick 4K Max with Wi-Fi 6 support and a more powerful processor. But the regular Fire TV Stick 4K strikes the perfect balance between functionality and value. That’s why it’s the best-selling streaming stick that Amazon has ever made.

LG C2 evo OLED 4K Smart TV

LG C2 evo OLED Smart 4K TV

Are you shopping for a significant other who has been pining over a new TV? Well, get them an amazing gift that you’ll enjoy as much as they will.

In a word, the LG C2 evo OLED 4K Smart TV is stunning. It features a crystal-clear OLED display with the deepest imaginable blacks and dazzling, vivid colors. I personally have the previous-generation LG C1 in my living room, and I absolutely love it. I’ve also had the pleasure of checking out the newer C2, and it is indeed a worthy upgrade. There’s a newer C3 model that’s available now, but I recommend saving some money on this version instead.

LG is the king of OLED TVs, and the C2 is the company’s most popular new model. What’s more, it’s on sale right now with a big discount!

Samsung The Frame QLED 4K Smart TV

Samsung makes a ton of different TV models, of course. But there are perhaps none as unique or versatile as The Frame TV.

The Frame is more than just a TV. It features a unique design that’s made to display artwork when it’s not being used to watch movies or TV shows. And Samsung’s QLED displays are so impressive that it actually looks like real artwork!

Of course, The Frame is good for more than just displaying art. It’s also a stunning television with picture quality you won’t believe… unless you already have another Samsung TV, of course. Then you know exactly what to expect.

Samsung’s Frame TV is one of the best gift ideas you’ll come across for a special gadget lover in your life.

If we had to describe the Bath Haven Bath Pillow in one word, it would be this: Heaven.

I once thought that nothing could be more relaxing than a long bath with your favorite candles and a good book. I was wrong. This bath pillow takes things to the next level.

The Bath Haven Bath Pillow is a waterproof back, neck, and headrest that is wonderfully comfortable. It has six suction cups on the back that keep it firmly in place so you don’t have to worry about it slipping as you move. This bath pillow is also breathable so you don’t get too warm or start sweating.

Before you get one as a gift for any woman on your list, you should know that there is one downside to the Bath Haven Bath Pillow. Your recipient will be spending A LOT more time in the bath.

Diamond Stud EarringsImage source: Maren Estrada for BGR

It goes without saying that everyone wants to give diamond stud earrings as a gift. It also goes without saying that cost is a massive barrier.

But what if you could get diamond stud earrings for a woman on your gift list without spending much money at all?

Fifth & Fine 1/4Ct Diamond Stud Earrings are fantastic. They’re quarter-carat earrings, but they look much larger thanks to a brilliant design. Instead of just one stone in each “stud,” there are multiple stones in a unique arrangement. Fifth & Fine calls it a “Grand” stud layout.

The result is a pair of earrings that look much larger than 1/4 carat. And incredibly, you can get a pair of these real diamond stud earrings for under $60!

We know how silly the woman in the image above looks. But we can promise you, the Perfecore Cooling Face Mask & Jade Roller bundle is worth its weight in gold.

Both parts of this kit are meant to be kept in the refrigerator. The jade roller eliminates dark circles and puffiness, improving skin elasticity in the process. Then, the cooling mask helps improve overall skin complexion, soothes headaches, and makes you look younger.

Plus, they both feel amazing while you’re using them.

Also of note, you can heat the Perfecore face mask to use it as a hot compress. It’s comfortable and relaxing, but it can also help open your pores before applying things like moisturizer or a face mask.

Everyone has heard of bath balls. That’s yesterday’s news. But have you heard about shower steamers?

Cleverfy Aromatherapy Shower Steamers are 2.5-inch tablets that Cleverfy calls “fizzies”. This gift pack includes six fizzies, and each one has a different delightful scent.

Using the Shower Steamers couldn’t be easier. Simply place one on a soap dish, on a shelf, or in the corner of your shower. That’s it! The steam from your shower slowly wears away at the fizzies.

As that happens, they release amazing scents that fill your bathroom while you shower. Then they eventually fully dissolve, and you can move on to the next one. Or, drop one in a plastic bag before it’s done and try a different scent whenever you want.

Any woman in your life would love to receive these Shower Steamers as a gift.

The NY Threads Women’s Fleece Hooded Bathrobe comes in 10 different colors. It’s made of 100% polyester which is so smooth and comfy to the touch. It’s also nice and absorbent, so the woman you gift it to won’t have to worry about leaving a trail of water behind.

The NuFACE Trinity Starter Kit is definitely on the pricey side. But if you decide to give one as a gift, your recipient will be grateful forever.

We’ll start things off with an important caveat: you don’t want to go and buy this gift for just anyone. After all, getting someone a device that’s meant to help eliminate wrinkles and lines from the face. It’s a multi-step solution that involves gently stimulating the face with microcurrent to help sculpt and tone.

So many people use the NuFACE Trinity and swear by it. All you need is 5 minutes a day and for many people, that’s enough to eliminate fine lines and crow’s feet.

The mask itself is soft and plush, and you can just lay it across your eyes as you lay down to go to sleep. Or, the smart design also lets you pull one end through a loop in the other end if you want it to be more secure.

This delightful sleep mask comes in nine different colors, and it’s a wonderful gift idea.

An electric shaver might seem like a stereotypical gift for a man. And to some people, it is. But it’s also a fantastic gift, and there are a few reasons why.

The main reason is this: Many men out there will use the same old electric shaver for years or even a decade until it literally falls apart.

Technology changes quickly in the world of electric shavers. And the Philips Norelco 9500 Electric Shaver is a perfect illustration of that fact.

This top-of-the-line wet-dry shaver features all the latest and greatest technology. It also has a terrific design that provides one of the most comfortable electric shaves you can get.

I wasn’t able to test it myself, but my editor tested it and said the Philips Norelco 9500 gave him a smooth, close shave without any snags or nicks. He also said the battery life is fantastic, which aligns well with Philips Norelco’s claims. The company says this model lasts for 60 minutes of use per charge, and a quick 5-minute charge gives you enough power for one shave.

Philips Norelco products are obviously hugely popular gift ideas for men every year during the Christmas season. And this year, we have one more recommendation for you from this popular brand.

The Philips Norelco 7000 Multigroomer Set is the best overall electric trimmer kit you can buy, in our opinion. It costs so much less than similar kits from other brands, and yet it includes everything you need to groom all the hair on your head, face, and body.

This kit includes 23 different pieces and doesn’t need any blade oil for use. You’ll get the high-quality electric trimmer itself along with 14 different cutting guards and more. There’s even a nose hair trimmer attachment!

Also of note, the cutting guards are reinforced with fiberglass so they won’t break like many rival brands.

We’ve tested this model ourselves and were supremely impressed with how well it works. Even more impressive is the fact that it’s so affordable, considering everything you get in the kit.

Roku Express 4K+

There are so many popular streaming services out there these days, and they all have one thing in common. They keep getting more and more expensive.

With that in mind, finding a high-quality streaming device that’s also affordable is more important now than ever before.

The Roku Express 4K+ is terrific, but there’s another option you might want to consider. We prefer the Roku Streaming Stick 4K, and we’ll explain all the reasons why.

First and most importantly, this model isn’t a set-top box. It uses the streaming stick form factor instead. Why is that so important? Because this way, you don’t have yet another box taking up space.

Instead, you just plug it into an HDMI port on the back of your TV and it’s tucked away unseen. That way, it’s like Riku software is built right into your TV.

Also, it’s only $10 more than the Roku Express 4K+!

Best Gifts for Kids

When it comes to Christmas gift ideas for kids, sometimes children are the most difficult to shop for.

If they’re your own kids, they’ll obviously tell you exactly what they want so it’s not much of an issue. But when you’re shopping for other people’s children, it’s a whole different ballgame — for better or worse.

If you want, you can get in touch with the parents and see if they’ll give you any guidance. But if you want to go it on your own, we’ve got plenty of great gift ideas for kids right here.


ThinkFun Circuit Maze

I’m usually not one to advocate for educational games. Having once been a child myself, I appreciate the notion that there’s a time for fun and a time for learning.

But every so often you come across an educational toy that’s actually a blast to play with. And that’s more true now than ever before thanks to the rise of STEM toys.

The ThinkFun Circuit Maze is the perfect example of a STEM toy that also happens to be tons of fun.

ThinkFun is known far and wide, having sold more than 50 million brain games and puzzle games around the globe. And Circuit Maze is one of the brand’s most popular games yet. It uses real circuits and electricity to take board and card games to the next level.

Here’s a quick description from ThinkFun: “It’s a logic game that teaches the basic principles of circuitry, comes with 60 challenges of increasing difficulty, from beginner to expert, and is a perfect holiday or birthday present for kids who like smart games and challenging activities.”

Circuit Maze is intended for children ages 8 and up, and it’s so much fun to play.

ThinkFun Lazer Maze

In addition to Circuit Maze, we have another fantastic ThinkFun game on our list.

ThinkFun Laser Maze is similar in concept to Circuit Maze. But instead of challenges that require you to build a live circuit, you have to build a path that reflects a real laser to the end of the board.

Here’s a snippet from the description: “It’s a beam-bending logic game that comes with 60 challenges of increasing difficulty, from beginner to expert, and makes a great birthday or holiday present for kids who like smart games and challenging activities.”

Just like Circuit Maze, Laser Maze is intended for children 8 and older.

Taco vs Burrito

We all know Cards Against Humanity, and anyone who has played it obviously loves it. Needless to say, however, this game is definitely for adults.

If you want to get a quirky card game that’s also appropriate for people of all ages, definitely check out Taco vs Burrito. It’s one of the most fun gift ideas you’ll come across for kids, and adults will love playing this game, too.

Taco vs Burrito is a fun party game that was invented by a 7-year-old. Seriously!

The goal is to build the most bizarre meal you can with the ingredients on the cards you’re dealt. Each gross-sounding food (like spicy yogurt and hair from a mustache) has a point value.

The player with the most points at the end of each round wins. But there are twists and turns along the way, of course. For example, some cards can be used to decrease the point value of another player’s card.

Taco vs Burrito is surprisingly strategic and a ton of fun to play. Definitely check it out — and don’t forget the Taco vs Burrito expansion pack!

Buddha Board Art Set

Most art is meant to be enjoyed forever. But the art you make with the Buddha Board Art Set is meant to be fleeting.

The Buddha Board is a great gift for older children and teenagers. It consists of a board and base, along with a paintbrush.

Fill the base with water and dip the brush to paint anything you want on the board. But this art isn’t meant to be savored — within about three minutes, your masterpiece will fade away.

Here’s an excerpt from the description: “This is the Original Buddha Board; It is inspired by the Zen idea of living in the moment. This waterboard painting set uses only water and our classic drawing board as you create beautiful works of art, that fade away, as it dries. Using a Buddha Board kit will help you achieve mindfulness. The mind is everything, what you think you become.”
