Gift giving is an art form. But picking a truly wonderful gift that the recipient is sure to love for years to come? Now that’s a science.
Of all the products we’ve tested and loved this year, the following 15 are the ones that we’ve deemed as the best. We love them so much, in fact, that we’ve assembled our first ever Gift of the Year list. Everything on here was rigorously tested in a real world, at-home setting by a member of the Mashable staff. These are the products that sit at the top of our “best of” lists, the ones we gift to others — or may be coveting for ourselves.
In the world of tech gifts, you’ll find our favorite headphones, a laptop that won’t wipe out your gifting budget, and the season’s must-have gaming device. We have gifts that make your home smarter, your dinner faster, and your music louder. For the kids on your list, we’ve chosen the toys that will evolve and grow with them as they get bigger, and for the smartphone obsessed teen there’s the one piece of tech that will help them find some much-needed balance.
Our sibling tech sites are also hosting their own, unique selections for their own Gift of the Year awards. Check out the winners at CNET, Lifehacker, PCMag, Popular Science, and ZDNET.
