The 72 Best Tech Gifts to Buy in 2024

Get them what they really want this time around.

By

I know you're in the market for a tech gift, and I'm not just saying that because this is the Best Tech Gifts story. I'm saying that because we're now touching tech every second of every day. We've got tech in our hands, tech over our eyes, tech in our homes, tech on our kitchen counters, and tech in our bedroom. Even our paper notebooks are tech-enabled. Hell, we're using tech to wake us up instead of the sun. Chances are, you're going to shop for someone that wants some type of tech gadget this year. If you're not as savvy as the person you're buying for, don't worry. I review this stuff for a living. I'll let you know what they actually want.

Finding the latest and greatest tech gifts is a serious undertaking. (Like I said, they pay me full time to do it.) Try scrolling Amazon's tech section for a few minutes, it's overwhelming. Another pair of wireless earbuds or a portable charger are not standout gifts, unless they're a need. To really wow the loved one you're buying a gift for, you gotta dig. An under-desk treadmill, a smart home device, a revolutionary tablet, a Wi-Fi enabled charcoal grill—this is the stuff that's going to blow their minds. For other suggestions, though, I found the 72 best tech gifts for anyone on your list. New blockbuster tech to ole-reliable house tech and everything in between. This is what they want.
