Tech Gifts for Non-techies Giveaway!

I think my girlfriend would really enjoy a 250GB  850 EVO for her laptop. Once I installed it she would have literally zero maintenance for it but would surely feel the difference since she uses her laptop quite a bit at school. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-AM/dp/B00OAJ412U?tag=linustechtips-20

I would buy my parents a playstation 4 so that they can turn their tv into a smart tv and they would benefit from the easy user interface.

Definitely the Google OnHub router, as their router connection sucks and they need something good but easy to use.

Definitely an OnHub router for my parents and the little bro: http://www.amazon.com/OnHub-Wireless-Router-Google-TP-LINK/dp/B013ALA9LA

My little brother is an avid gamer who always complains about the poor connection he gets in his room.  It'd also help out my parents and their new obsession with netflix. They just figured out how to use their smartTV... They have a crappy ISP sent router at the moment that doesn't take advantage of their relatively decent internet speeds (200down/150up).

Thanks for doing this LTT!

I would like to get a new music system for my sister because listening to her speakers crackling is eventually going to drive me insane. She's also not a tech person at all but even she can't go wrong with this speaker right? I hope so.

Thanks for the chance to win Linus and have a good Christmas yourself :)

This is an awesome giveaway!

 

I want to get the gold Mophie Juice Pack Air for my sister's iPhone 6. 

She is constantly on her phone and therefore constantly running out of battery, so I think this would be a perfect gift for her.

Thanks!

I want to get my friend a tablet PC so that way they can use it while getting around, like they are normally doing, because the horrible laptop she's stuck with is clunky and obtrusive on the bus.

Hey guys, my dad is a real lover for new tech, even though he's not into it much. I'd get him the Corsair Strafe RGB Mechanical Keyboard. It's because he would love the tactile feel under his fingers while he types out long spreadsheets and he can customize the colors the way he likes it.

         Corsair Gaming STRAFE RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Backlit Multicolor LED, Cherry MX RED (CH-9000227-NA)                         (US$139.99)

 

Thanks!

I would buy my mom a Amazon Fire HD because she's always asking what I'm doing with my iPad and I think it would be good to get her into computers because back when she was my age, they used like computers without an interface. Hopefully she won't break it within 10 mins but a case would be a good idea...

I would get my Sisters this laptop:

They don't need a laptop each just one they can use to get school work done and stuff like that. They currently have an old machine running xp, that can barely handle Microsoft Office well.

 

Also Nice video, I may get one of those sonos systems for myself.

Wow, this is epic!

I'd like to get a 
Nikon COOLPIX S9900 for my neighbor. He wants to do tech reviews, but only has an old, built-in laptop camera that records in 480p and has a terrible built-in laptop microphone. I think this would make an AMAZING Christmas gift to him. 

It's on sale for $229.00

I'd give my mother a new tablet. She really likes the old kindle she has, but refuses to upgrade to one with higher storage, a camera, ect. She really loves taking pictures of everything with her old phone from 2007. I would buy her a phone but she is very picky with that, so I'll leave it up to her sometime in the future. I think getting her a kindle would be great, as she brings her old one everywhere with her. She also doesn't like how small some touch screens are, but doesn't want a huge one. She does everything for me and supports me in every way, but as a college student, paying for a Christmas present is difficult and if love to show my appreciation towards all her efforts.

Beats Studio Wireless Over-Ear Headphone - Titanium

If I happen to win, they will be going directly to my sweet and loving girlfriend Clariz. She has been such a blessing in my life, and the 13th will be our 9-month anniversary. I wanted to get her something that she could understand how to use, and also show how amazing she is to me. Of course, I wouldn't need to spend a lot of money to show her I love her, but she is worth every penny.

A pair of Beyer 770s for my brother as he is still using a pair of headphones that cost him £50 about 7 years a go, I have the 990s myself but he likes closed back headphones so I'm sure he would like the 770s and because they are the 32Ohm version he would be able to use them for his tablet and phone which is always a plus..

I would get a mobile dektop for my grandmother for baking recipes. She has a T.V in her kitchen and I'm sure she would love a small desktop to use while cooking/baking.

A  Philips Hue A19 Bulb Starter Kit for my mother,

 

she doesn't care about her own 1000 euro sound set up and she barely uses it because she can't figure out how, even with my sticky note instructions.

But she's obsessed with lights, like literally Christmas lights are on through out the year. And she owns all sorts of weird lamps with weird collors.

This would be the next step for her in terms of weird customization, and I'm pretty sure she'll be able to handle this because she does use her iphone 5s without instructions from me.
