We know how challenging it can be to shop for the men in your life. Even if you ask them what they want, the response is often a vague, not-so-helpful "anything is fine" or the dreaded "I don't know." The good news is that — at least in our shopping experience — gadgets and tech finds are always a failsafe gift to give, even if you're shopping for someone who has it all. From gadgets that will make life easier to some of the hottest products this year, we've curated a guide to the best tech gifts of 2024 — including items that he'll actually use and appreciate.

Whether it's a smart-home find that will make his life more efficient, or a pair of stylish noise-canceling headphones, he'll thank you endlessly for any of these awesome gifts. If he loves golfing in his free time, get him a smart watch that gives him all the data he needs to play his best game, like score-tracking, 360-degree yardages, and more. For something unique, gift him an LED face mask that not only has massage capabilities, but also looks like Jason's mask from "Halloween." We also found several fun presents for the gamer in your life, like the trendy Meta Quest VR device, a Nintendo Switch, and more.

If you're on the hunt for the coolest tech and a unique gift for the indecisive man in your life, these innovative picks won't disappoint. Hey, you might even want a few for yourself! Shop our picks for the best tech gifts for men below.
