THE festive season spirit is all about gifts, decorations and spending more time with family.
Christmas Day is around the corner and this is the perfect time to buy and send gifts.
Tech It Out is here to help you with some last-minute tech gift ideas you can get at a low cost at various retail stores.
If you have a tech-obsessed friend or family member you want to spoil, here are some cool gadgets you can get for them:
- Bluetooth speaker
Bluetooth speakers have become popular in this digital age as a form of sound entertainment.
They use wireless connectivity that is usually paired with smartphones, tablets, iPods or computers.
The best brands to look out for include JBL, Volkano and Xiaomi Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker just to mention a few.
- Digital camera
The festive season is also all about creating new memories and a quality camera device makes it possible to capture every single moment.
Entry-level digital cameras can also be used to record videos and the content is stored on a memory card which is transferable on eligible devices.
- UPS inverter
Another consideration could be a UPS inverter for a person who is always on the move this festive season.
This device provides emergency power to keep your router and laptop running smoothly during interrupted outages.
- 4K streaming device
A streaming device allows one to watch their favourite movies and shows at the tip of their fingers.
One is guaranteed access to streaming apps like Netflix, Disney and Spotify.
Popular devices include Chromecast with Google and Roku Streaming Stick.
- Rechargeable/solar bulbs
As load shedding continues to wreak havoc in Mzansi, rechargeable bulbs have become a must-have device.
They stay on during power cuts and can last up to four hours.
Most of the devices mentioned here can be purchased for under R2 000 at various retail and online stores.
