Amazon Echo smart speakers are a great gift for any tech-savvy dads who want to dabble in smart home upgrades. The Echo Dot with Clock is a good starting point with options to bundle in some smart bulbs or a smart plug. It can also display the time, temperature, or timers on command.
Stream all his faves in 4K
Chromecast Ultra
If your dad recently bought himself a brand new 4K TV "for the family," a Chromecast Ultra is a great gift that would let your Pops watch his favorite shows streamed in crystal clear 4K. This updated Chromecast is just as easy to use as the previous versions and now offers full support for 4K Ultra HD video.
Clip on tunes
Edifier R1010BT Studio Monitor Speakers
You're long past the days of giving dad a clip-on tie, right? Now's the time to give him a clip-on speaker so that he can jam on the back porch while grilling those 4th of July burgers, or attach it to his bike when he goes on his morning rides. Plus, this little beauty is waterproof, so he won't have to worry about spilling punch or his favorite backyard beverage on it.
The gift of music everywhere
Ultimate WonderBoom 2 Bluetooth Speaker
When it comes to portable Bluetooth speakers, few can outmatch the form factor, sound quality, and ruggedness of the Ultimate Wonderboom 2. The sound is delivered in 360 degrees, with up to 13 hours of playback on a full charge. You can also connect pair two of these for stereo sound and let the good times roll. Perfect for the golf course or chilling out at the lake.
Noise-cancelling headphones
Anker Soundcore Life Q20 Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones
Every dad could use a new set of wireless headphones, but these from Anker's Soundcore brand might just be the perfect pair for that new work from home lifestyle. They offer a 40-hour battery life between charges, and if you top them up for only five minutes, you'll get four hours of playback time. The hybrid active noise cancellation will help dad be present in his Zoom calls or tune out the madness when he needs some me time.
Fitness tracker
Fitbit Inspire HR
We all want our dads to live long and healthy lives, and one way to encourage a healthy lifestyle is to promote activity every day. If your pops isn't super tech-savvy, or if he's resistant to the idea of a smartwatch, then the latest fitness tracker from Fitbit might be the right way to go. Dad can monitor his heart, activity, steps, and even his sleep with this gadget.
