Whether it’s the smallest of smart cups or the most grandiose television you’ve ever seen, there are few things fathers appreciate more than advancements in the tech world. With countless manufacturers finding ways to advertise a near-endless collection of gadgets and gizmos, it’s just as difficult for dads to choose what they should buy as it is for their kids. With that in mind, we’ve decided to do the work for both of you and conjure up a list of the best gadgets to buy this Father’s Day.
InsideTracker
Keeping dad healthy, especially as he ages, is extremely important, and modern technology makes it easier than ever to do so. InsideTracker is an advanced app and data-based health program that uses dad’s own biomarkers to formulate a personalized wellness plan for him. Each InsideTracker kit starts off with a blood and DNA test that results in incredibly specific recommendations for what dad’s body needs, tailoring plans for his nutrition, fitness, sleep, and more to ensure that he’s literally living his best life.
Nomad Goods Leather Cover for Siri Remote
Losing your Apple TV remote might be the most irritating thing to deal with, and many of us have grown accustomed to it on a daily basis. In an effort to flip the switch and make things easier, this chic Leather Cover from Nomad Goods comes equipped with a pocket for dad’s AirTag, so he can rest assured that it isn’t going anywhere.
Ember Cup
This sleek, smart appliance from Ember is the perfect gift for any dad who routinely needs his morning caffeine fix. The new release is primarily geared toward espresso-based drinks, including flat-whites, cappuccinos, and any other choices your father’s coffee machine has to offer.
Amazon Echo Show 15
Amazon’s array of smart products have become commonplace elements in countless houses, and the Echo Show 15 might just be the smartest one to date. While its main draw is an HD display that measures just over 15.5” across, it also features a camera for video chats and remote work meetings that any dad working from home could surely put to good use.
Pro-Ject E1 Turntable
This one goes out to all the audiophilic fathers out there. Pro-Ject’s sleek E1 Turntable is handmade with the utmost attention to detail, right down to its convenient vibration-absorbing feet to make the most of your dad’s record collection without any glitchy interruptions.
Sony WH-1000XM5 Noise Canceling Headphones
In the case that your dad is more of a contemporary streamer than a record collector, these are arguably the best wireless over-ears on the market. Sony’s line of WH-1000XM noise-canceling headphones has absolutely dominated the space over the past few years, and its latest iteration offers up to 30 hours of battery life and crisp calling capabilities to ensure no hiccups mid-conversation.
DJI Mini 2 Drone
If there’s any drone you should consider buying your pops this Father’s Day, it should most certainly come courtesy of DJI. While the majority of the brand’s catalog is particularly pricey, the Mini 2’s affordability doesn’t sacrifice quality or features in the slightest. It boasts a maximum battery life of 31 minutes and 4K shooting capabilities all while weighing less than an apple.
Sony PlayStation 5
This may be hard to believe, but many dads are gamers. As a matter of fact, the average age for men to become a father nowadays is roughly 31, whereas the original PlayStation was released 27 years ago. Don’t waste your time doing the math and simply keep an eye out for when you can pick up Sony’s most powerful console to date.
Apple iPad Pro
As the same applies to the majority of its gadgets, Apple’s flagship tablet serves as the end-all-be-all in this space. The Silicon Valley giant’s 5th-generation iPad Pro practically offers the same features as a MacBook Pro with the user-friendliest touchscreen interface in the game. Thanks to Apple’s unrivaled M1 chip, your dad will grow accustomed to high-powered performance and nothing less.
Terrakaffe TK-01 Coffee Machine
This sleek, Japanese-made coffee machine is the perfect counterpart to your dad’s new Ember Cup. With a tank capacity of 57 ounces, a bean capacity of 12 ounces, and an incredibly easy, push-to-start brewing mechanism, making a cup of morning coffee has never been easier (or more stylish) than with the TK-01.
Leica M11 Camera
Leica cameras are in a league of their own, and its newest flagship is an absolute doozy of a gadget. With its unrivaled full-range CMOS sensor and ISO sensitivity range of 64 to a whopping 50,000 in addition to its lightweight, ergonomic feel, there is simply no better camera to choose from, and any shutterbug will appreciate it.
