THE HOLIDAY SEASON
is upon us. Make Christmas
morning more exciting for your family by giving well-
considered and useful gifts. To help you with your
shopping, we’ve compiled a short list of nifty gadgets
that would make excellent Christmas presents for your
mom and dad, brother and sister, and
lolo
and
lola
.
Solid performer
When dad needs to take his work
with him, he’ll need a notebook
that is light, powerful, and can
withstand the rigors of travel.
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon
ultrabook fits the bill, with a
reinforced carbon-fiber lid and roll
cage, 1.3kg weight and a battery
life of 8.2 hours on a full charge.
Sure-shot traveler
Help mom and dad travel light
by giving them the Canon EOS
M. It will give them total creative
control over their photos, minus
the bulk of a DSLR camera. It
has an 18-megapixel sensor and
touchscreen display.
For mom
and dad
Our parents have given us
wonderful gifts when we were
kids, so now it’s our turn. Here
are a couple of things that will
help you show how much you
appreciate them
Capablemultitasker
The Samsung Galaxy Note II has an
oversized 5.5in screen that will make
it easier for mom and dad to watch
HD video and tinker with their apps. Its
blazingly fast too, thanks to the 1.6GHz
quad-core processor, Android 4.1 Jelly
Bean and 2GB of RAM.
Crystal clear
Mom loves music and fashion? Then
the Monster Diamond Tears is perfect
for her. These on-ear cans make a bold
fashion statement, and deliver sound
that is crisp and natural.
