Your friend will be able to control their AC from anywhere, anytime!

And wait, there’s more!

These smart devices will help your friend reduce their AC costs by saving up to 25% of energy. They can also be connected to a smart home hub such as Google Home, Amazon Alexa, or SamsungSmartThings.

Click and Grow Smart Garden

If your techie friend also loves to cook, then the Click and Grow Smart Garden would make a perfect gift for them. It is a device that grows fruits, vegetables, and herbs without you having to worry about keeping a vigilant eye on the process. This smart indoor garden would add a fresh look to your friend’s kitchen and take their meals to the next level.

While traditional gardening may seem more rewarding but the time and effort required could intimidate you before even starting. This device is great in this sense as it automates the watering, lighting, and nutrients needs of the plant pods. 

With this device as a gift, your friend would never run out of their favorite must-have herbs while cooking. 

Sleep Headphones and Eye Mask

If your techie friend lives in an urban area surrounded by traffic, construction, or other sources of noise pollution, then gifting them sleep headphones and eye masks would make their nights less chaotic. You must be wondering that they must already own a pair of earphones. But wearing them while lying on your bed makes the experience quite uncomfortable, right?

This is where this sleep eye mask paired with Bluetooth headphones comes into play. This ingenious item not only blocks the light but also helps block the annoying noises ruining your night dreams. 

The best part is that you don’t have to adjust your earbuds again and again or toss and turn to get that comfortable position where your ears won’t hurt. 

Some masks available in the market come with a noise-canceling feature or produce white noise to provide a soothing and calming experience while you sleep

Foreo Smart Face Mask

All you have to do is just download the app, pair the UFO and scan the barcode printed on the mask. The device will sync with the app, and you’re all set to start your facial treatment. 

The app also tracks your routine while suggesting which treatment would be best for you. Moreover, you can keep track of your mask usage and even set reminders for the next one.
