Instead of sitting around this holiday season wishing you could spend time with your friends and family members, take the time to find gifts that help you stay connected.
Be it a video game console that’s sure to keep your kids and their cousins connected and entertained, or something more personal for you and your partner, there’s something for everyone in our list below.
Heck, there’s even a lamp that changes colors every time your friend touches their own version of the same exact lamp. Sometimes it’s the little things that mean the most.
Below are some of our top picks for tech gifts that will help you stay connected this holiday season.
For those who prefer Alexa
The Echo Show 8 is an Alexa-powered device with a screen and camera built-in. You don’t have to use it only for video calls, but you can also drop-in on a loved one’s Echo for a surprise audio call whenever you want.
It’s just another way technology helps us stay in touch
For the more adventurous, LoveSense offers toys for both partners that can be controlled remotely via a desktop app, a smartphone, or tablet. And when your schedules align, you can take advantage of the two-way interactivity feature. Think of it as a mutually beneficial gift.
