You know that feeling when you’re trying to buy someone a gift, but they already seem to have everything? Especially when that someone is a tech lover.

They grab the latest gadgets the moment they launch and own smart versions of things you didn’t even know could be smart.

Gifting people like that can feel challenging. You have to think long and hard or pick up on subtle clues. I have a few of those people in my circle, so I understand how these things can be. If there’s one thing I believe, it’s that gifting shouldn’t be random. It needs to be intentional.

Think about times when someone gave you something. Sure, you appreciated the gesture, but it just didn’t strike the right chord. That’s usually because it lacked thought, timing, or relevance.

PROMOTED

That’s why, when it comes to tech lovers who have everything, the trick isn’t to find just another gadget. It’s to find something surprising, helpful, or personal enough. They might not even realize they want it until they have it.

Luckily, tech keeps evolving. New ideas and more innovative designs emerge all the time, giving you more opportunities to get it right, even for the person who already has a drawer full of smartwatches.

So I’ve done the digging for you. This list features 20 carefully selected tech gifts for men and women who have everything or seem impossible to shop for. Even if you’re not as tech-savvy as they are, this list will give you a head start. The picks span different categories, personality types, and price ranges, from under $50 to over $500.

The complete gift guide: 20 tech gifts for men and women who have everything

There are several types of items that fit each category, and different brands also have their own versions of each one. For clarity, as we explore each gift item in detail, I’ll focus on specific products or types within each category.

Under $50 smart accessories tech gifts

1. Anker 622 magnetic battery (MagGo)

Description: This wireless power bank has a 5,000 mAh battery and magnetically attaches to the back of a compatible iPhone. It’s also slim enough to slide into a pocket.

What makes it special: It’s wireless, can be snapped onto the phone, and has a built-in stand.

Perfect for: Busy iPhone users who are constantly on the move and can’t always plug it in.

Why they don’t have it yet: They’re probably still using a corded power bank that, while functional, doesn’t offer the convenience or portability of this compact, wireless option.

How to use it: Charge the battery pack, then snap it onto the back of an iPhone. Flip out the kickstand if you want the phone to stand upright.

Price: Around $47–$50 from Anker and from retailers like Amazon.

2. OCOOPA UT2s 2-Pack hand warmers

Description: This set includes two slim 5000 mAh rechargeable hand warmers that snap together magnetically into one unit or split apart for separate use. They’re also dual-purpose; each unit doubles as a USB power bank capable of charging a phone.

What makes it special: It’s a two-in-one gift item. Each piece functions as an independent hand warmer and power bank.

Perfect for: Anyone who spends time outdoors in cold weather, and great for gifting during the winter months.

Why they don’t have it yet: Most people who already own a hand warmer probably have a basic single-unit version.

How to use it: After fully charging, press and hold the power button to turn each warmer on. Tap the button to cycle through the different heat levels. For added warmth, snap the two units together.

Price: About $39.99 for the pair from Ocoopa and other online retailers.

3. KIN Element mug warmer and lid set

Description: A USB-powered mug warmer with a heating plate. Importantly, it features built-in safety sensors: it only turns on when it senses a mug on top, and it automatically shuts off a few minutes after the mug is removed. The included lid helps trap heat.

What makes it special: The weight-sensing switch and lid.

Perfect for: Busy office workers, students, parents at home, or anyone who, for personal or medical reasons, needs to sip warm liquids regularly.

Why they don’t have it yet: They might already own a basic coaster warmer, but most don’t come with a lid or a weight sensor.

How to use it: Plug the included USB cable into a power adapter. Place your filled mug on the glass plate, and the unit will automatically activate when it senses the mug’s weight. Tap the side controls to choose your preferred heat setting.

Price: Around $25 on KIN, Amazon, and at major retailers.

4. Tabletop mini vacuum cleaners

Description: A tiny handheld vacuum designed for desktops or other small surfaces. It runs on batteries, so it’s completely cordless. Most models come with a small nozzle or brush attachment to pick up dust and crumbs. 

What makes it special: Its portability and convenience, plus it’s battery-powered.

Perfect for: Cleaning workspaces in home offices, remote setups, or small surfaces.

Why they don’t have it yet: Since it’s designed for small surface areas, people might stick to using wipes and never think about using a vacuum cleaner.

How to use it: Load the required batteries into the compartment. Press the power button to start the motor. Then hold it in your hand and sweep it over the mess on your desk or table. The vacuum will suck crumbs and dust into its bin. When you’re done, press to open the lid and empty the dirt into the trash.

Price: $10–20 on Amazon and in gift shops.

5. Tile Mate Bluetooth Tracker

What makes it special: Tile Mate uses a crowd-sourced network of Life360 and Tile app users. So if your item is lost and out of range, nearby users’ phones will anonymously relay its updated location to you.

Perfect for: Frequent travelers, commuters, or anyone juggling multiple daily activities.

Why they don’t have it yet: They might have only recently started a hectic routine or may also already own a similar device like Apple AirTags, NFC tags, or Samsung SmartTags.

Conclusion: A good gift-giving strategy

Ultimately, the best tech gifts should not only be cool, but also thoughtful. So when you’re choosing the right one, think about the person’s lifestyle, hobbies, and even their current tech setup. Do they love fitness? Love to travel often? Work remotely?

Even if you find a great gift, don’t let poor presentation ruin it. Pair it with a handwritten note, wrap it in something fun, or explain why you picked it. Those little details make a big difference.

Also, don’t forget to check the return policies just in case. Some gadgets might not work well with the recipient’s existing devices or match their preferences.

Whether you’re trying to impress or just want to make someone smile, I’ve rounded up 20 tech gifts for men and women who have everything to help you get started.
