Small budget, Secret Santa or a stocking filler? These cool gadgets cost less than a round in the pub and still feel like a proper present.

The Redmi Buds 8 Active are the easiest gift on this list. A 14.2mm titanium-coated driver gives full sound, dual microphones keep calls clear, and you get up to 37 hours of listening with the case.

The Mi Precision Screwdriver Kit comes in a neat case with a range of precision bits for glasses, toys, controllers, laptops and remote controls.

A power bank is one of the most useful tech gifts for anyone who travels or commutes. The Xiaomi 165W Power Bank has a built-in USB-C cable for fast charging at up to 120W, plus a second USB-C port, so he can charge his phone and earbuds at the same time.

A new smartphone
If his phone has a cracked screen or dies by lunchtime, a new smartphone is the gift he will use most. The Xiaomi 17T Pro (€729) is our best overall pick, and the Xiaomi 15T (€549, down from €649) is the best deal. See our best smartphones for Christmas 2026 guide for every budget.
How to choose the perfect tech gift for a man
- Think about his day, not the specs. A man who drives a lot will value a car charger or air compressor more than the latest gadget. A commuter wants earbuds and a power bank.
- Check his phone. Everything in this guide works with Android and iPhone, but smartwatch and earbud apps work best when they match his phone.
- Rechargeable beats batteries. Most of these gifts are rechargeable, so there are no batteries to buy.
- Buy genuine EU stock. Cheap marketplace gadgets can come with the wrong plug or no warranty. Everything here comes from an authorised reseller with a full warranty.
