Oculus Quest 2
The Oculus is the perfect big gift for so many different types of guys! You might not think a virtual reality headset would be your man’s thing, but you’d be surprised…I definitely was! My brother-in-law received an Oculus for Christmas last year and let the whole family try it out. I am not a game person, not board games, not video games, and definitely didn’t think I’d be into a VR headset. But my husband convinced me to try the Oculus and it was so fun! We ended up receiving one as a special gift and it has been a BLAST to have.
Beat Saber is one of the most popular games (and my personal favorite), but there’s so much more you can add. You can also take virtual trips around the world with Wander, watch YouTube videos, and so much more.
Apple Watch
The Apple Watch is sleek, dapper, and techy…is there a guy who wouldn’t want this?! This would be the perfect gift for the guy who doesn’t look at his phone enough because he’d get the notifications right on his wrist. 😉 He could track physical activity, including running, hiking, etc. It even has a compass so that when he insists he knows where he’s going on a hike, he’ll stay safe whether or not his sense of direction is as good as he thinks. The Apple Watch also streams podcasts, audiobooks, and music. (P.S. We would not judge AT ALL if you decided to throw one in for yourself too.
Apple Airpods Pro
Is your man a music lover or an audiobook aficionado? Airpods are a splurge for sure, but they’re more decked out than your typical Bluetooth headphones. Apple has mastered noise-canceling mode to block out loud background noise but also allows users to change it to transparent mode to be more aware of their surroundings.
3D Printer
Does the guy in your life need a new hobby? If he likes to create and is super into tech, he’ll be hooked on this 3D Printer. You don’t have to know how it works, but it’d probably be good if he’ll be able to figure it out. So this’ll be the perfect gift for the guy who loves to put stuff together and is willing to read/watch instructions.
Projector
Amp up family movie night or Monday night football games (that’s when they are, right?) with this projector. You can cuddle up outdoors or use this indoors, but either way, a movie on a projector is a different experience. This projector can even connect to your phone AND mirror the screen. It can also connect to Bluetooth, so if your beau is a video gamer, he can stick in his Airpods and you won’t hear a thing.
65″ Smart TV
I’m perfectly happy with whatever size my TV is, but someday, I’ll splurge on a big TV for my husband because he’s always wanted one. If your guy geeks out over TVs like mine does, this 65″ Roku TV would be the perfect gift if you want to spoil him.
Gaming Chair
If your husband or boyfriend is a gamer, he’s probably serious about his gaming gear. This ergonomic gaming chair provides optimal comfort whether your guy will use it for serious gaming sessions or a day in the home office. It’s soft, it reclines, and it even comes with a footrest.
Drone
This mini drone is the perfect guy gift! It’s compact, it flies, and it captures professional-level images and videos. It’ll fly for up to 31 minutes, it’s wind-resistant, and it weighs about as much as an apple, making it the perfect companion for the adventurous man in your life.
Adjustable Dumbbells
These adjustable dumbbells are a great gift for the active man in your life. All it takes is the turn of a dial to change the resistance on these dumbbells, making it more convenient to get a good workout at home without taking tons of space.
Luggage
Luggage is the perfect high-ticket gift for the travel enthusiast. This hardshell 4-piece set is lightweight and comes in lots of different colors so you can choose what fits your beau the best.
Yeti Cooler
The Yeti Cooler is all the rage. It’s expensive, but it’s well worth the cost due to its durability, weather resistance, and extended ice retention. Ice used in the cooler won’t turn to a slushy mess–it’ll stay ice. This is the perfect gift for the outdoorsy husband or boyfriend!
Go Pro
Got an adventurous man in your life? The Go Pro would be perfect to help him capture his escapades. It’s tough and waterproof, the perfect travel companion for people who are into anything from water sports to mountaineering.
Inflatable Kayak
Another great gift for the outdoor adventurer. An inflatable kayak may seem risky, but I’ve personally tried this one, and I liked it more than a typical kayak. It’s comfy and compact, so no need to worry about finding the space for storage.
Traeger Smoker Grill
The Traeger Grill is the type of gift your food-loving man will use over and over for a LONG time. It’s definitely pricey, but if you’re ready to really spoil your man, you’ll reap the benefits with loads of delicious meat AND a break from doing all the cooking.
Portable Gas Grill
Got a guy who loves the outdoors? Get him a grill he can take anywhere. It’ll be fun to have a grill to take camping, to parks, parties, to the beach, or even to keep at home, and you’ll surely reap the benefits too.
