With the holiday season in full swing, many of us are drawing up shopping lists and trying to find the right gift for that valued colleague or client. Tech products and accessories are some of the most popular choices this season as always. Here are a few gadgets that are sure to inspire warm smiles of appreciation this winter:

1. Phone chargers – Smartphones are becoming a ubiquitous part of the business landscape—an indispensable communication tool. We all know too well that sinking feeling that happens when battery life shrinks below the double digits. There are a lot of excellent power banks on the market now that will recharge not only your smartphone but also your other devices so you can stay connected on the go. With so many people traveling for the holidays, they’re an especially thoughtful and timely gift.
2. Mobile accessories – Ever lost your smartphone charger or your earbuds? A mobile accessory kit can come in handy in just that kind of situation. Some also come equipped with USB car chargers, which are also useful when traveling around this time of year.
3. Headphones – A pair of stylish, quality headphones might be a good pick for the music lovers that you know. Everyone’s familiar with the standard issue earbuds, but those who want a higher-definition experience might appreciate a proper set of headphones. More comfortable than earbuds, many headphones come with noise canceling features that allow you to block out distracting ambient sounds so that you can focus on enjoying the harmonies in your favorite song or the sound effects in the latest blockbuster you’re watching.
4. Bluetooth speakers – Music lovers and especially party hosts may appreciate a set of snazzy Bluetooth speakers that can wireless deliver the high fidelity sound to a celebration anytime, anywhere. Small, compact and portable, they’re a great choice this holiday season.
5. Lap desks – Many of us like to unwind while catching up on our shows and movies over the winter break. Rather than awkwardly propping up a tablet or laptop on a pillow, it can be extra comfortable and cozy to curl up with a lap desk. Although it’s ideal for the couch or bed, a lap desk is a fine option for travel as well.
