Hey, what's up guys, Stephen Quartz of Mac here, and if you've gotten this close
0:04
to Christmas and still not figure out what to buy your tech-obsessed loved one, don't panic. I'm here with 10 greater tech presents for the holidays, so let's not waste any more time
0:12
and get straight into it. If you're needing a gift for the iOS gamer in your life, then the GameVice is perfect
0:23
The GameVice is attached onto your iPad Pro to give the user the ultimate mobile console experience
0:28
Give your iPad Pro all of the triggers, buttons and joysticks, you need to easily play some of your favourite games in the way nature intended
0:35
A good example of this is Grand Theft Auto, which looks great on the iPad, but it isn't the easiest to play using Touch, especially if you're used to playing on a PlayStation or Xbox
0:44
Add the GameVice into the mix, however, and the familiar layout makes it easy to get straight into
0:49
GameVice also includes a free companion app, so you can quickly and easily discover which games are compatible
0:54
Don't worry if you haven't got an iPad Pro either. There are versions to fit any iOS device from iPad minis to iPhones
1:00
Simply put, it's the best way to game on an iOS device. Docking stations are a staple of any good desk setup, and Hengdoc makes some of the best
1:09
If you're buying for a MacBook Pro user, who's constantly connecting their MacBook Pro to a screen, hard drives, and so on, the Hengdoc will be a godsend
1:16
Instead of unplugging each wire individually every time the Hengdoc houses all of the connections within the dock itself So it simply a case of sliding your MacBook in and out Not only is the Hengdoc functional but it also beautiful and will fit right in line with your MacBook Pro styling courtesy of its high metal alloy finish
1:32
The company also makes versions for the MacBook Pro without rent a display, as well as air and standard MacBook
1:38
As a bonus gift idea, Hengstock additionally makes the Gravitass 2, which is a docking station for iPhones and iPads
1:44
I'm including these together, as depending on how much you love the person you're buying for, these two docks look stunning
1:49
side by side. The Gravitass can cradle your iPhone or iPad thanks to the interchangeable
1:53
insert which you provided and, once again, look stunning alongside your Apple products
1:57
thanks to its construction. No matter how cold it is outside, most of us can't go 20 minutes
2:03
without checking our iPhones. Keeping your hands warm whilst using our touchscreen devices
2:07
hasn't been a problem for years, as there's a plethora of touchscreen gloves out there
2:10
already. But if you want some that just ooze quality, the Mujo gloves are the only ones you
2:15
need to look at. They boast an extra layer made out of wool to keep your hands in
2:19
nice and toasty, with the knitted design that's complemented with soft black leather and a magnetic
2:23
snap closure, making them super easy to get on and off. They also boast high-quality silver-coated
2:28
nylon fibers knitted into the fabric in order to make them conductive to use with your iPhone
2:33
Finally, there are silicon grip dot patterns on the palms and fingers to add extra grip. Perfect
2:38
For the Apple Watch user in your life check out the autumn charging stand as a great low dock for charging an Apple Watch plus three other USB devices The cylindric shape of the dock allows you to neatly tuck away your Apple Watch cable and instead show off your Apple Watch in all its glory on nightstand mode when it charging On the front there are three USB ports
2:56
to charge your iPhones or other gadgets with Smart IQ charging. The dock looks great on any night
3:01
table and comes in four different colours, including the silver room showing off here. These headphones
3:07
are great and very stylish with high-quality sound boasting superb clarity especially for the price
3:13
40mm speakers give these headphones a wider sound feel than many headphones in its price range
3:17
which in turn creates a better balance in the treble, mid range and bass. Finally, one of my favourite
3:22
features is the folding mechanism with the included hard case, which has a carbon fiber style
3:27
look I really like. Moving from headphones to speakers, its low-cost unit has a surprisingly
3:34
great sound quality and a whole lot of volume. Bluetooth 4.1 allows for a 33-foot range and it promises
3:40
is up to 30 hours of playback. It's not the prettiest speaker, but it's certainly rugged, and even water resistant
3:47
just in case you want to take it out to your next pool party or festival when the weather warms up
3:52
The lifex bulbs are my absolute favourite Wi-Fi light bulbs. I've been using them for years now, and this latest version boasts a slightly smaller profile
4:00
They can work with Alexa, Nest and Smart Things, and offer you your choice of 16 million
4:04
colors including various temperatures of white They easy to set up and are really bright with the equivalent to the equivalent to of a 75 watt bulb which makes them perfect whether you hoping to fill a room or just to add some accent lights
4:18
If you want to preserve some of those holiday memories, no problem. This could be the gadget for you
4:23
Like a modern Polaroid, printcase easily attaches to your iPhone to give you printed pictures
4:27
in seconds. The paper easily loads into the center under this flap, and you can use the dedicated shutter
4:32
button to take your photos or load them directly from your library
4:36
You don't need any print cartridges either, which makes us a brilliant gift that it doesn't require its recipients to do anything other than print their photos
4:43
If you'd like to see a full review of the print case, let me know in the comments down below. Finally, this is an iPad Pro accessory I've reviewed at length in the past, but I wanted to mention it again
4:54
It's forged out of a single piece of high-grade aluminium, just the way Apple would
4:57
It looks great with the iPad, which it basically transforms into something resembling a MacBook
5:02
If you, or the person you're buying this for, wished Apple went full touchscreen with the new
5:06
MacBook Pro instead of just a touchbar, well, this is what it might look like
5:10
You can even get it in silver, space grey and gold. And versions exist for both the iPad Air and Air 2
5:16
