Valentine’s day is just days away, so what are you planning to gift the love of your life? Oh right. You forgot. If not, why would you be reading at this time? Nonetheless, this year, I took the time to prepare a guide on how to put a rational approach to celebrate Valentine’s day, so yeah, I’m here to help you out, captain.
It’s not going to be as simple as I listed down for men. I’m not an expert and have to restrict my recommendations to tech/gadgets, and boy, it’s going to be hard. But hey, as promised, I did put a logical approach, and I recommend reading the ideas altogether. With whoever I spoke has also suggested bringing a personal touch to the gifts, and I feel there should be more to it. So, the list goes like this –
Gadget Gift Ideas for HER on Valentine’s Day
1. Instant Cameras
I don’t mean to gift the camera, but also the actual candid shots were taken by it. I don’t know how you are going to do this, but I recommend taking the help of your friend or someone and get some candid shots through some instant cameras. Why instant cameras? They add a personal touch to it. Put down some one-liners about that particular moment. It’s like the old retro photographs, which are a bit nostalgic too. So, go beyond the personalized gift and share an experience.
In the instant cameras, Fujifilm is quite a famous brand, and I highly recommend gifting Instax Square SQ6.
2. Retro Music Gadgets
I guess we all have used record players, walkmans, mp3 players, iPods, and with time, we adapted to the rapid change in the technology. It’d be unfair if I don’t say that the progress meant for a good reason, but it led to the communication disconnect among the individuals. We all are so fond of our phones now that we use it extensively yet don’t communicate with others.
The rising social media websites are also causing the same damage. Now, we’re consuming a lot of content that we weren’t even used to a decade ago. The same is true in terms of content production too. With so many things changing around us, it’s too hard to get along with someone you love. That’s why I believe bringing a retro touch to the relationship could rejuvenate the love. The reason why I recommend choosing music is that you get to choose from limited songs, and you’d be very particular. It could be your chance to load her favorite songs, some of your favorite songs, and other classic songs that you believe could trigger the special moments.
Gadgets without internet sound like a boring idea, right? Well, it all comes down to how you execute it. Again, personalization is a significant factor here. Just put some thought about her childhood, look into the photo albums, talk to her friends, and figure out which one you should gift. Once decided, head over to Amazon and find it. I recommend this if she’s a fan of retro Hindi songs, and this if you’d like to give a personal touch to it.
3. Hybrid Smartwatch
It is an obvious gift choice. My previous gifts rely on bringing nostalgia, whereas this one is a contemporary gift idea. Even after getting used to a smartphone, we’re all wearing watches, and of course, a lot of women are still buying analog watches. No wonder why they’re all connoisseurs when it comes to glossy, sparkling wearables. Now there exists a wide range of hybrid smartwatches to choose from, which does the work correctly. The reason why I’m not recommending to go with a smartwatch is not because of style quotient but the other display that we should look again.
Fossil has a wide range of hybrid smartwatches, and I recommend going with it as we tested a few of its smartwatches. Do check this one, which I believe would be a perfect gift.
There are other gifts that you can give, but keep one thing in mind that it should contain your story in it. I’m not saying you should put a drama to it, but be sensible in what you’re gifting. I hope my ideas give you a direction to get started. But you know what I recommend? I want you to spend time with her. If some materialistic gift affects your relationship, then it’s not a real relationship. Now you know why I restricted my list with just three, right?
I firmly feel Valentine’s day should be celebrated as the day that you connect by being the real you. I altered the Fight Club movie story to describe this and you should read it. So, it’s your take now, captain. Do the right thing. I believe in you.
