In fact, we'd say it's probably one of the best budget 4K monitors out there. While the resolution is the stand-out feature, its 60hz refresh rate and 1ms response time are not to be looked past either.
Laptop - ASUS Chromebook Flip C433

Tablet - Samsung Galaxy Tab A8

Projector - Epson Home Cinema 880

Controller - Xbox Elite Series 2

It also comes with a 21MP camera for crisp photos and videos.
Air fryer - COSORI Lite

Robot vacuum - iRobot Roomba j7+
click to enlargeThis Roomba j7+ looks to be one of the best self-emptying robot vacuums on the market. It features smart mapping technology to navigate any room, and, because it's self-emptying, you don't have to worry about maintaining it either.
Electric razor - Braun Series 5 5020cs
click to enlargeIt's hard to go wrong with an electric razor. This Braun bit of kit, in particular, should make for a great gift as it features three flexible blades designed to adapt to facial contours for a close shave made easy.
Portable charger - Anker PowerCore 20
click to enlargeFinally, the key to almost any technology is keeping it charged. With this Anker power bank, you can charge devices such as iPhones, Samsung tablets, and even iPads multiple times over before it runs out thanks to its 100mAh battery. We'd say it's probably one of the best budget power banks around.
