Best Christmas Gifts for Techies 2018

If you’re looking for the perfect gift for that person in your life that’s obsessed with tech, then here at Wantboard we’ve got you covered.

Nimble Wireless Charging Pad


Most smartphones nowadays support wireless charging, so why not get a wireless charging pad that’s sustainably made from organic hemp and bioplastics?

The Nimble Wireless Charging Pad can charge your iPhone at up to 7.5W and your Samsung or Android smartphones at 10W. The pad also comes with a USB-A port and a USB-C input port, as well as a Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0 wall adapter for fast charging.

The Nimble Wireless Charging Pad is available now from Wantboard for $79.99 CAD.

Google Home Hub


The Google Home Hub is the company’s latest smart speaker and also their first smart display. A smart display will show you relevant information, get answers from the Google Assistant, play music, watch YouTube videos, and control your smart home.

The Google Home Hub has a 7-inch screen and comes in multiple colours: Chalk, Charcoal, Aqua, and Sand. Unlike the Lenovo Smart Display, the Google Home Hub does not have a camera; you can still make video calls using Google Duo, but there will just be audio coming from your end.

The Google Home Hub is available now from Wantboard for $257.99 CAD.

Google Titan Security Key Bundle


If you want to keep your online account safe, then you’ll want to use something like the Google Titan Security Key. Whenever you try to login into one of your accounts, you’ll be asked to insert your Security Key into your computer or connect the Bluetooth key to your phone. It basically acts like a second lock after your password to prevent phishing and unauthorized access to your accounts.

In this bundle, you get the USB Security Key, Bluetooth Security Key to use with your Android or iOS devices, USB-C to USB-C adapter, microUSB to USB-C connecting cable, and quick start guide.

The Google Titan Security Key Bundle is available now from Wantboard for $96.99 CAD.

Google Clips


The Google Clips are made to capture the big and little moments in your life. The camera has a 130-degree field of view and 15 fps with 16GB of storage.

It uses Moment IQ and Google Lens to automatically capture important moments in your life and can recognize things like expressions, lighting, and framing. Google Clips also has Wi-Fi Direct for fast transfer speeds and offers up to 3 hours of battery life.

Google Clips is available now from Wantboard for $428.99 CAD.
