It might seem a bit early to start talking about gifts for Father’s Day, but with the many shortages in tech going on this year, it’s never to early to start planning. In this gift guide, we’re going to have the best Father’s Day gifts, from soundbars, to TVs to everything in between.
Top 20 Best Father’s Day Gifts
Below, you’ll find all of the gifts in this list, and if you scroll further down you can learn more about each product. These range from just $35 all the way up to around $700. So there’s something here for everyone’s budget.
Ring Alarm Pro
The eight-piece Ring Alarm Pro is a great idea for Father’s Day. This kit includes one Alarm Pro Base Station, one Keypad, four Contact Sensors for windows/doors, one Motion Detector for one hallway/room, and one Alarm Range Extender. Allowing you to protect your home with ease. It’s pretty easy to setup and use. And with the Ring Alarm Pro, there’s a built-in eero router, which is going to help improve your home’s signal too.
Sony 55-inch X90K 4K TV
This is the latest from Sony, and your dad deserves the latest and greatest. This is the X90K series of 4K TVs from Sony. It includes Google TV built-in, like all of Sony’s TVs have for a while now. It does also include Dolby Vision HDR, as well as HDMI 2.1. So it’ll be great for playing the PlayStation 5 or the Xbox Series X. Though, Sony does tease that there are some other PS5 exclusive features available with this TV.
Chromecast with Google TV
Price: $49Where to buy: Best Buy
The Chromecast with Google TV is a really good option for those Dad’s that love to watch TV. Google released this in late 2020, and it’s a great way to cut the cord and watch plenty of great content. One of the best features of Google TV, is being able to get recommendations on the home screen, from different genres, across all of the apps installed on your Chromecast. It also has live TV listings for YouTube TV, if you use that. Chromecast with Google TV - Best Buy
Jabra Elite 85t
The Jabra Elite 85t are the latest version of one of the best pairs of truly wireless earbuds on the market. The Elite 85t offer up really incredible battery life. Coming in at about five and a half hours of continuous playback and around 25 hours with the included carrying case. Jabra allows you to customize the sound of the Elite 85t with the MyControls app. So you can add some bass, or up the treble if you like. But by default, the sound on the Elite 85t is already really impressive. And Jabra also has six mics included on these earbuds, so you can get some crystal clear calls, without worrying about getting a lot of background noise.
NVIDIA SHIELD TV
The NVIDIA SHIELD TV is very similar to the Chromecast with Google TV, but a bit more powerful. It doesn’t yet have the Google TV interface, but it is coming. The SHIELD TV does run on Android TV, giving you access to a slew of great apps including Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Disney+ and more. It also has the ability to Cast, as well as Google Assistant included. What makes the SHIELD TV different though, is that it can also be used as a gaming console. You can game through NVIDIA GeForce Now, and play all sorts of games on your TV. Which is great news since, buying a PS5 is still almost impossible.
Meta Quest 2
Who wouldn’t love to get an Meta Quest 2? It’s the latest virtual reality headset from Meta. And it comes in either 64GB or 256GB models. The 256GB model is $399. We’d recommend getting the 256GB model, particularly if you’re going to play a lot of games. It’s a standalone VR headset, so you don’t need to have it hooked up to a computer to play games and such. Which is definitely a good thing here. And makes it a lot more convenient.
Google Nest Cam Indoor
If your Pops is into smart home products, then the Nest Cam Indoor is a great option. This will allow him to keep tabs on the house when he is not at home. It offers 1080p video feed, at a 130-degree field-of-view. Making it easy to see an entire room. The Nest Cam Indoor does also work with Google Assistant. And you can even see your feed of your home on your smartphone or the Nest Hub (and Google TV/Android TV). Making it even easier to keep an eye on what’s going on.
Rachio 3 Smart Sprinkler Controller
The Rachio 3 Smart Sprinkler Controller is a rather unique gift to get this year. It’s exactly what it sounds like, a smart sprinkler, so you can control when your lawn is watered, and in which areas, from your smartphone.
eero Pro 6
The eero Pro 6 is a great option, if your Dad is complaining about the internet being slow. Or if he has a lot of smart home products in his home. As the eero Pro 6 will help with both. We chose the Pro version over the regular eero 6, because it is more future-proof, supporting up to 1Gbps speeds. This is the three-pack eero Pro 6, which is why it is $599. But that will cover up to 6,000 square-feet. Meaning that you can easily blanket your home in internet coverage.
Sonos One (Gen 2)
The audio quality on the Sonos One is also really good. For a pretty small speaker, it definitely packs a punch. And works really well with other Sonos speakers for a multi-room setup in your home.
TCL 65-inch 6-Series 4K QLED Roku TV
This is perhaps the best Roku TV that you can buy right now. This is the 6-series from TCL, which is a QLED TV that runs on Roku. With QLED, you’re going to get a really impressive looking picture here. The some deep blacks and really crisp colors. It also has support for HDR, HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision. Finally, the TCL 6-Series also has THX Certified Gaming Mode, making it great for pairing with a PS5 or Xbox Series X.
Anova Culinary AN500-US00 Sous Vide Precision Cooker
A secret in professional kitchens for decades, sous vide works by circulating heated water in a pot at a very precise temperature according to the desired doneness of your food, holding it there for the duration of your cook for exceptional results. With just 3º making the difference between a rare and medium-rare steak, precision is key in the kitchen. This simple and approachable technique eliminates overcooked, dried out food and ensures edge-to-edge perfection every time you cook!
Garmin Forerunner 35
This is a great gift for Dad’s that are also runners. Forerunner 35 is slim and lightweight — perfect for daily runs, training and racing. It features built-in wrist-based heart rate as well as GPS that tracks your distance, pace, intervals and more. And since all these stats are captured by the watch, your watch is all you need — no phone, no chest strap. Just put on Forerunner 35 and go.
Ninja FG551 Foodi Smart XL
The Ninja Foodi Smart XL is a great gift, no matter the occasion. I own one of these myself, and absolutely love it. The Ninja Foodi Smart XL is able to grill, air fry, roast, bake and much more, all in one appliance. It also has a thermometer that is included, so you can see when your food is ready. It’s fairly large at about four quarts, and big enough for four to six steaks, depending on the size of the steak.
DJI Air 2S
The DJI Air 2s features a 1-inch CMOS sensor, powerful autonomous functions, and a compact body weighing less than 21 oz., DJI Air 2S is the ultimate drone for creators on the move. Take this all-in-one aerial powerhouse along anywhere to experience and record your world in stunning detail. This is a really great drone to pick up for done some content, especially if you’re looking to get started with YouTube and do some sweet shots.
Sonos Arc
Price: $799Where to buy: Sonos
The Sonos Arc has been pretty tough to find since it was released last year. So if you do plan to get this for Father’s Day as a gift, you’d better plan early. As shipments are about 2-3 weeks out right now. Sonos Arc is one of the best soundbars on the planet right now. Of course, it works really well with the rest of the Sonos ecosystem, but it also has Dolby Atmos included, which can really make your home shake. Sonos Arc - Sonos.com
Google Nest Hub
Price: $99Where to buy: Walmart
This is the second-generation Nest Hub from Google, and it works really well with a number of smart home products. It also works well on a desk playing music, showing YouTube and even asking Google Assistant all kinds of questions. This would also work well in a bedroom, since there is no camera. Instead it uses other sensors to see what’s going on in the room. Including the ability to track your sleeping. Which is rather neat. Google Nest Hub - Walmart
Beats Studio Buds
The Beats Studio Buds are probably the best pair of earbuds Apple has ever made. For one simple reason, it includes fast pairing for Android and iOS. Instead of just the typical iOS feature. Which makes it great for Android users. The sound signature has been dialed back on Beats lately too, so it’s not super bass-heavy anymore. These are rated at IPX4 for sweat and water resistance. They also offer up to 8 hours of continuous playback, and up to 24 hours with the included carrying case.
LG 77-inch C2 OLED 4K TV
This is probably the best TV that you can buy right now. The LG C2 is the latest model to come out of LG, and we all know that OLED reigns supreme still. This is a massive 77-inch TV, which Dad is going to love using to watch sports and other things while he sits in his recliner struggling to not fall asleep.
Razer Blade 14 Gaming Laptop
This is the Razer Blade 14 (AMD edition), which is very powerful. And whether your Dad likes to play games, or get some work done, this is a great option. It has a 14-inch 165Hz display, which is going to look absolutely stunning, and super smooth. Internally, there is the AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX processor running the show. With 16GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD space. And there’s the NVIDIA RTX 3080 inside for some great graphics. Making this among the best Father’s day gifts that you can grab this year.
