Gifts to Stay Connected
One of the greatest benefits of modern technology is the opportunity it gives us to keep connected to those we care about, even when they’re far away. In our increasingly complicated and distant world, it’s more important than ever to keep in touch. When you’re thinking of ideas for gifts, why not give the long distance gifts to stay connected? These gadgets that make great gifts to keep you feeling close to family and friends.
Headphones
The gift of a good pair of headphones can help make the voices of long-distance loved ones seem a lot closer. Not just useful for listening to music, headphones can also be used when making phone and video calls to friends and family. Using them makes the experience more private and greatly enhances the sound quality.
Smartphones
A smartphone is the ultimate tool for staying in touch. With so many apps designed specifically for better communication, there’s no end to the ways in which we can stay close to those we care about. Zoom, Skype and FaceTime are fantastic video calling applications that let us connect with whoever we want, whenever we want. Likewise, with instant messaging we can feel closer to those who are far at the touch of a button.
Wearable tech
For the fitness buff, there’s no better gift than a smart watch or an activity tracker. They make staying in touch with loved ones a fun and active experience, allowing you to do things like issue fitness challenges to friends and family in which everyone can participate, no matter where they are.
Laptops
Laptops normally have a built-in camera and, like smartphones, are a great device for video calls and instant messaging. Got a friend who’s mad about gaming? Get them a laptop that’s specially optimized for online gaming so they can stay connected through gaming.
Webcams
For PCs and laptops without a camera, a webcam is a gift that will open up a whole new world of communication. Perfect for video calls, a webcam can be easily set up on most desktop computers, making staying connected as simple as lights, camera, action.
Smart Digital Assistant devices
A smart digital assistant device makes an awesome gift for family and friends. It lets them control everything in their home from the lights to the music, as well as make phone and video calls without even getting up from the sofa. From instant messaging to compiling a to-do list, a device like Alexa, Siri or Google Assistant is a great way to make life at home that little bit easier for someone you love.
Health Tech
Investing in some health tech can be an invaluable gift for someone you care about. Whether it’s letting them stay connected to their doctor, quickly and easily sending their heart rate or EKG readings and even monitoring blood pressure via a smartphone, there’s so many ways to use technology to stay healthy!
