Getting gifts for our fathers can be a difficult task. If they don’t specifically tell you what they want, it’s hard to get them the right present!
Most of the time, parents already have pretty much anything they need – so you need to find something that they might want – but don’t want to buy for themselves.
As we said, it can be difficult – but fortunately, there is tons of tech they don’t have yet. So you can still get him a new tech accessory that will be the perfect gift for your dad.
If you don’t know where to look, continue reading to browse 10+ great gift ideas for fathers.
10.2-inch iPad
The good thing about the iPad is that most people don’t have one, and that’s why this is a great gift idea for fathers! An iPad is a wonderful way to give them a screen to watch shows and movies on an airplane, read the news or their favorite books, and browse the web.
If your father isn’t the most tech-savvy person, the original iPad is a great place to start. Not only is it easy to use, but you won’t spend that much money on it. Plus, if they are more tech-savvy, they can even turn their iPads into a laptop if they have the right accessories. They might even be able to work on the go with this lightweight device that’s just so easy to use.
MacBook Air
If you think an iPad isn’t enough, you can get your father a brand new MacBook! A superb entry point for people who need to get work done is the MacBook Air.
With the M1 Apple Silicon chip, this Mac is the most powerful and energy-efficient MacBook Air there is, and it can even run apps that used to be only available on iPhone and iPad! Plus, it’s the most affordable MacBook available.
You can also try getting a Mac mini, which is more affordable, but the advantage of the Air is that you can use it anywhere at any time without any extra accessories. Not to mention the array of colors it comes in to match your father’s style.
AirPods 3
The AirPods 3 are the perfect gift for any father that loves music and Apple’s style. Apple refreshed the original AirPods, and now they look sleek and elegant, and they’re a bit more affordable than the AirPods Pro. You can get up to six hours of battery life with a single charge and up to 30 hours of total listening time with the help of the charging case.
Unfortunately, the third-generation AirPods don’t come with Active Noise Cancellation, but you’ll still get great sound quality and decent battery life. If you want to give your father ANC, you should go for the AirPods Pro or the AirPods Max. The great thing about all AirPods is that they’re super easy to pair, and they work seamlessly with almost all Apple devices.
AirTags
A gift like an AirTag is the perfect way to help your father find all their things without spending that much money. The AirTag connects instantly to their iPhone, and they can give it a name so they know exactly what they’re tracking. They can then put it in their backpack, their wallet, or even on the family dog, and they’ll be able to know where everything is in real-time!
Plus, if your father really loses something, they can use the Find My network to see the last location of their stuff. And, since the AirTag is one of the most affordable Apple Products (if you don’t count Apple’s polishing cloth for $19), you can get more than one AirTag so they can track pretty much everything that they carry.
Roborock S5 Max
A great gift for your father and your family, in general, is a robot vacuum. These little guys are great for keeping your house in check without moving a single finger. One of the best options out there is the Roborock S5 Max. Sure, it isn’t the most modern model from the company, but it still has enough power to vacuum and mop a house or apartment.
If you want to go the extra mile, you can go for a more expensive S7 model, but that’ll cost you over $1,000, which is a lot more. Still, the S5 Max has everything you need to keep floors clean. Dad can create a map of all his rooms and put it to work with the help of the app for his iPhone or Android phone.
Smart Digital Picture Frame
If your dad loves to take pictures but they never do anything with them, this is a perfect gift for them. This digital picture frame can showcase all of his photos and videos in a matter of minutes!
It comes with 16 GB of storage, but you can add an SD card to bump the storage to 128 GB, which is more than enough to share tons of photos. It also has a touch screen, so they can switch photos any time they want.
So if they have a lot of pictures they haven’t done anything with, this could be a great present that’ll help the whole family relive their best memories.
Alexa Echo Dot
If you want to give your dad and your home a new way to control everything, the Alexa Echo Dot is perfect. With the Alexa Echo Dot, you’ll have a digital assistant to help you activate every smart home accessory you have at home. You can control the lights, your music, and even your kitchen! All that with just your voice.
Etekcity Apex Smart Body Fat Scale
If your dad is into fitness or is trying to stay in shape, you can help them out with a smart scale. What’s great about this Etekcity smart scale is that it measures pretty much anything. He’ll get an accurate calculation of his BMI (Body Mass Index), body fat, muscle mass, and a lot more!
Best of all, he’ll get that information sent to his smartphone so he can track all of his progress automatically, plus he can even control everything with the help of Alexa. Not to mention, this scale’s battery life is so strong that a single charge will give him up to three months of power.
Portable Battery
If your father’s always on the go, giving a portable battery with enough power to charge all their devices can be the perfect present. This portable battery comes with a capacity of 10,000 mAh, and this means it’ll be able to charge your dad’s iPhone or iPad many times before it runs out of juice. Plus, this pack comes with two batteries, so it’s perfect if you have two fathers or you want one for yourself. It’s also under $25, so it’s perfect if you’re on a budget but still want to gift something useful.
HidrateSpark Pro Smart Water Bottle
If you don’t feel like helping with their weight is the way to go, you can help them stay hydrated with a smart water bottle. The HidrateSpark Pro is a great choice to ensure your father drinks all the water they need.
Basically, this smart water bottle can help you track your water intake. If it knows you haven’t drank water in a while, it’ll send a notification. It won’t just notify you on your smartphone, but it can also glow to remind you to drink water, which is pretty cool.
After a while, you’ll see all of your progress and water intake on your phone, so it’s easier to see how much water you drank in any day, week, or month.
Kindle Paperwhite
Getting a Kindle is a perfect way to support your father’s reading goals. They’ll be able to carry around hundreds of books in the palm of their hand! What’s great about the kindle is that he won’t get any distractions. He can read for hours and won’t see a single notification, which makes it way different from reading on his phone. Plus, a single charge can last him for days and even weeks, so it feels more like a real book.
The perfect choice for most people is the Kindle Paperwhite. Sure, it isn’t the most affordable model, but it’s got everything you need to make your reading experience nice and smooth. You can change your brightness, adjust the warm light to read better at night, and hold it with one hand without getting tired.
