This one's for all my techies who could care less about healthy food subscription boxes

Hey you guys! So since we are finally in the month of December, I figured a lot of you are
0:11
out there either looking for gifts for other people or gifts for yourself. And I think techies
0:15
or geeks or whatever you want to call them are some of the hardest people to buy for because they pretty much have everything. But I have a couple of suggestions. Some of them they may have
0:23
some of them they may not. But I thought it'd be cool to put it into this list of some of my favorite products of 2016 and things that I would love to receive as gifts. So let's get started
0:33
So number six on my list is something that I've always really wanted but never bought for myself
0:38
and that is a solar-powered phone charger. I know it seems like a really weird idea but if you think
0:42
about it it's actually something really cool and really useful. I think it'd be a great tool to
0:46
keep in your car for emergencies or take camping or a day on the beach or to prepare for whatever
0:51
fallout we have when Donald Trump takes office. Next up would either be Google Home or Amazon Echo
0:57
I actually own both of these devices. I like them both, but I think my preference now is Google Home
1:02
now that I have it. And I know there's a lot of things that it can't do, but I think Google is working so, so hard on their AI department that this thing is going to do incredible things in
1:09
the future. They make great gifts for pretty much anyone, especially elderly family members that
1:14
don't really understand technology. But to them, it's like magic. Like it's like this little person
1:18
in a box that plays whatever song they want to hear or just tells them dumb jokes
1:22
How does a train eat? It choo-choo's. Now, number four on my list is something that I've mentioned in several videos, and that
1:28
is a Google Chromecast or a Google Chromecast Ultra. These things are seriously amazing, and once I got one, I couldn't imagine life without it
1:36
It's basically a really easy way to cast videos or music or whatever from your phone directly
1:40
to your TV. It great for parties family events or just chilling on the couch But if you have a family member who like my dad and still keeps a flip phone then maybe stick with a Roku Number three is actually something that I seen a lot of in stores like TJ Maxx and Ross and that is a mobile VR headset Now these come in
1:57
the widest range of devices I've seen lately. So you can go all out and get the Gear VR for Samsung
2:02
devices or you can be like me and order a couple Google cardboards online for under 20 bucks
2:07
Either way, if you haven't experienced VR, it's like the coolest thing in the world
2:12
Speaking of VR, number two on my list has to be a 360 degree camera
2:17
So while most consumer 360 degree cameras are pretty low quality, they're a ton of fun to play around with
2:23
Especially if they're someone who's into videos, this would make a really cool gift. It's somewhat affordable
2:28
Personally, I just ordered the LG 360 degree camera. I actually found a deal for it for $100
2:33
So I'm looking forward to getting that in the mail. I think it's coming tomorrow. So maybe you guys will be seeing some 360 degree videos soon. That's something you guys want. Let me know and the number one
2:41
Item on my list of top tech gifts this year and that's the NES classic edition console from Nintendo
2:47
It's probably like the hottest gift of the year. It's basically this miniature device that has 30 pre-installed games
2:53
You literally just plug it in your TV and you're good to go and it's super convenient
2:57
And you don't have to worry about programming this raspberry pi device to a TV and make your own emulator
3:01
Which I still really want to do one day. New video idea? Maybe? Thank you guys so much for watching. Hopefully this will help you find the perfect gift for the geek in your life
3:10
Or the perfect thing to tell your parents that you want for Christmas if they're constantly asking like mine are
3:14
If you have any other ideas, share them in the comments below. I always love learning about new gadgets and gizmos
