With Christmas just around the corner, we sure hope you’ve been thinking about your friends and family and planning appropriately for how you’ll surprise them come 25 December. With so many gift possibilities, cutting edge technology is a great Christmas gift for your loved one. For starters, it’s useful, long lasting, and more treasured than a box of chocolates. Here are four gifts that are bound to surprise as you watch him/her unwrap and smile:
The latest and greatest: iPhone 5S
Sure the iPhone 5C comes in lots of cool colours but for a gift that will really surprise you’ll need to step up and spend the big bucks on an iPhone 5S. This top-of-the-line model includes four features that surpass other models, with a new fingerprint identity sensor (forget the 4 digit passcode now!), a 64-bit A7 chip, a faster and sharper iSight camera, and ultrarapid LTE wireless. In 112g, you have a beautiful and secure phone, camera, Internet browser, and the ability to download thousands of applications. Now that’s a great present.
The one that’s off the charts: Samsung Galaxy Tab 3
If entertainment is of key importance to whomever you’re buying for, you can’t go wrong with the Galaxy Tab 3. Released in April 2013, the Tab 3 measures in at 7.95mm thin with an impressive and crisp 25.65cm screen. Holding the tablet in your hand you can access Samsung Apps which is home to more movies, TV shows, and other digital media than you could ever imagine. Need to do some work? The Tab 3 is also equipped with basic functional items such as a calendar, email, and an Internet browser. That’s only if you can pry your eyes away from the movie you’re watching though!
The lightest library you’ll ever buy: Kindle Fire HDX
If the person you’re buying for is a reader, they’ll be over the moon. If they’re not, it might just be the thing to kick start them into a great lifelong habit. The Kindle Fire HDX is the top model of Amazon’s popular Kindle, an e-book reader that enables you to shop for, download, and read e-books, magazines, blogs, and other digital media. The benefits are plenty: it reads like real paper, it’s easy on the eyes, it has a one-month battery life, it’s thinner than a pencil, and we could go on and on. With a pixel density at 339 PPI, the HDX is the clear winner when it comes to reading on a tablet.
The two products in one: Asus Transformer Book T100
Why choose between buying a laptop for home or a tablet for when they’re on the go, when you can buy two for the price of one for your loved one? The Asus Transformer Book T100 is a great tech gift to give this Christmas, as a fairly low-cost 10.1-inch Windows 8 tablet that can also be a laptop with its detachable keyboard segment. Unlike other tablets that double as laptops, the T100 uses a full laptop-style hinge made of metal. It also features impressive finishing and a solid hardware. An undoubtedly useful gift to consider.
