But, with the enormous amount of tech products on the market, how can you pick the best? We’ve rounded up five of the coolest new tech products on the market to help you make your shopping a little easier.
1. iPhone 7: Ever since the birth of the iPhone, there hasn’t been a time when the phone wasn’t considered the best holiday gift ever. However, the new iPhone 7 has souped up featured certain to wow even the most tech-obsessed family member. Though the overall look of the phone hasn’t changed, don’t be deceived – there are a ton of new and improved features. Your eyes will be thanking you, as the phone’s display is the brightest and most-colorful iPhone display the company has ever shipped. Get your selfie-game strong with the new 7-megapixel sensor on the front facing camera – finally! Speaking of cameras, the rear-facing camera on Apple’s 4.7-in. iPhone 7 model now features a 12-megapixel sensor with optical image stabilization; this means crisper, brighter, and more professional photos. The new phone does not have a headphone jack any longer, however, this means that the phone is the most water resistant iPhone ever; this means the iPhone 7 is completely dust and water resistant, earning the device an IP67 rating for the first time in history. Another very cool feature on the new iPhone is the stereo speakers! All of these features add up to one very much improved and amazing new iPhone.
2. Google Pixel: If you’re looking for a wow-factor gift this holiday season, check out the first ever phone from Google, the Pixel. This is the first phone with Google Assistant built in; what does this mean for you? Google Assistant can manage your everyday tasks, create appointments, manage your travel plans, find photos, music, and more. For all of you photogs, the Pixel has the highest rated smartphone camera, ever! Pixel’s camera lets you take photos in bright or low light, just like a real camera. But, the coolest thing about the Pixel? Say goodbye to those annoying “storage is full” pop-ups, because the Pixel has unlimited storage. Unlimited! How cool is that? With the Google Duo app, you can finally FaceTime with friends and family on both Android and iOS devices. Plus, the Pixel has crazy good battery life and charges super fast. We highly suggest snatching this phone up as soon as you can (and grab some extra for your friends and family!).
3. iPad Pro: If you have friends and family who love to travel or work while on-the-go, this is the ultimate techie gift for them. The iPad Pro is leading the new wave in personal computing; coming in two sizes, this new iPad is bound to be the perfect travel and work companion for many of your loved ones. Their new and improved screens have the highest resolution of any iOS device; and the 9.7-inch iPad Pro screen is the brightest and least reflective in the world. Since techies tend to use their iPads everywhere they go, the new True Tone display utilizes advanced four-channel ambient light sensors to automatically adapt the color and intensity of the display to match the light in your environment. What does this mean for you? Less strain on your eyes, and a more natural work environment. Each corner of the iPad features a hi-fidelity speaker, so no matter which way you turn the screen, you’ll be fully immersed in sound. As this new iPad is faster than the average laptop, you’ll want to gift this device many times this holiday season.
4. Nexus 6P: Though the Google-branded Nexus 6P isn’t a brand new tech device, all of its features and credentials make it a wonderful holiday gift this season. Made from aeronautics-grade, anodized aluminum, this phone is super strong, and yet very slim as well. With a new and improved camera, boasting a 12.3-megapixel Sony sensor with f/2.0 lens, the Nexus 6P is perfect for travel, photography, and even videos, with its ability to shoot 4K videos and slow motion, as well. The front camera, for selfies, is 8-megapixels, which is a huge step up for the Nexus line. One of the coolest aspects of the Nexus 6P smartphone is the Nexus Protect Program; for only $89, you get 2 years guarantee against mechanical defects, along with 2 years of worry-free usage as cracking your screen is covered under it. But, wait, there’s more! If you damage your phone, Google will actually send you a loaner phone within a single business day to help you until your actual phone is repaired. Pretty cool!
5. Fitbit Charge 2: Of course, it’s not a holiday season without someone asking for a fitness-tracking wristband.
