Technology gifts for Christmas

Technology gifts for Christmas

Author JoeDigital

Men and women always seem to struggle with knowing what to get each other. Women obviously know what women want and men, of course, know what their fellow man wants, but can one ever successfully buy for the other?

Women should take note, men love technology. From super-sized 3D TVs and home cinema systems to the latest digital camcorders and mps players, men love a bit of James Bond style gadgetry. Of course that’s not to say that bottle of cologne, new shirt and vintage bottle of whisky won’t go down a treat, but to really impress your man this year you need to think like Q and go for as much ‘cool’ stuff as possible.

One of the coolest new gadgets for gamers this Christmas is Microsoft Kinect for the XBOX 360. This clever piece of kit allows your whole body to become the controller, taking fighting games to a whole new level. Maybe you’ll need to clear an area of the lounge to avoid accidental damage.

If your man loves to drive but will never stop to ask for directions this Christmas there is a solution to solve the problem of getting lost. CoPilot Live turns mobile phones and PDAs into personal sat navs without the huge expense of buying the real thing.

For movie lovers on the go, the MiLi iPhone 4 projector is a seriously cool Christmas gadget. You plug it into your iphone and you can watch your favourite movies projected onto a nearby wall. The ‘screen’ size can by up to 70 inches so not bad for something the size of your hand.

Of course if your partner is really into his movies then the ultimate gadget is the 3D TV. These are the latest TVs to hit the market so are still rather pricey, but for around a £1000 you can pick up a 3D TV and 3D Blu-ray player from Samsung.

Being able to document all his funny antics down the pub, at concerts or on the upcoming snowboarding holiday is highly appealing for any man, so get them the latest in HD hand-held digital camcorders. The price range is quite astonishing and you can pick up an HD-ready camera for less than fifty quid, but at the top end of the market you won’t get much change from £500. You can therefore find one to fit your budget and just how much time you want your partner to be spending with the thing.

In keeping with your new knowledge of all this technologic, don’t shop on a packed high street, head online for the best deals and bargains away from the crowds. Pricedropper has plenty of technology and gadget goods including cheap camcorders.
