We are a few short weeks away from Father’s Day for 2022. So you want to make sure to take some sort of care for your dad or father figure in your life. Whether your dad is an audiophile, beard-lover, techie, & regular. We got 8 hand-picked products for gift suggestions to make him smile on June 19th. Keep scrolling to go through the TechGuySmartBuy Father’s Day Gift Guide.
Kicking things off here is for the bearded dads out there. So if you’re shaving, cutting, or trimming your hair or your beard at home; this one is for you. The folks over at Beard King made this Beard Bib so your hairs won’t clog up the bathroom sink. I have one myself as it uses suction cups to stick to the wall as the bib velcros around your neck. Then after you’re done, you can detach the suction cups and throw your hairs out – mess-free.
For the hot cider/cocoa/coffee/tea-drinking dads out there, we pick a temperature-controlled smart mug. This is the 14oz 2nd-gen Ember Smart Mug that will keep your beverage hot. It has the heat range of 120-to-145 degrees Fahrenheit, an 80-minute battery life on its charging coaster w/ auto-sleep + smart LED to let you know when it warming. All of this within an IPX7-rated ceramic mug holding it all down.
This one is for my techie dads w/ a love of nostalgic products. The folks over at Grid Studio takes select tech products & disassemble them into a frame. They got smartphones, game controllers, & more as they’ve added more things to it lately. So you now have the Xbox One controller, the PS Vita, the iPhone 6 series, & the Gameboy Advance SP as options for you to choose from. And this is on top of the products they already have in their stable.
This pick is for my hard-working or gym-heavy dads out there. We got the Theragun Prime massage gun which can eliminate having to make a massage appointment and handle that specific trouble area at anytime. This offers multiple massage heads, 5-speed range, multi-grip, LED display for info/settings, app support, and a 120-minute battery life. All while being portable enough to carry in a backpack, suitcase, or a gym bag as well.
Sony’s latest earbuds are quite the surprising hit IMO. Coming only a few months after the original models, the LinkBuds S checks off many of the boxes most would want in a pair of earbuds. You got IPX4 rating, noise-canceling, LDAC support, auto-play, adaptive sound control, and a 6-hour battery life – all in a super lightweight design. They’re great for music/media/podcast while on the go or just in private at home.
For those of you seeking to get into VR gaming and/or the Metaverse, Meta’s Quest 2 VR headset is a great entry way w/o breaking the bank. This is more or less the only real viable option for VR w/ no PC needed, right now anyways. As we’ve come a long way from the cardboard VR setups w/ our phones. You a comfortable headset w/ 3D positional audio, hand tracking and haptic feedback to play, shoot, exercise, & more. Just so as long as you’re ok w/ Facebook.
For the barbers or do-it-themselves dads out there, this one tool alone is worth checking out. This is the Bevel Pro that can swap out blades to be both a clipper & a trimmer in one. The blades snap on/off w/ 4 magnetic guards, adjustable zero gap control to for regular cuts & close cuts showed off by their new LED display, and a 4-hour battery life that can be used either wired or wirelessly. Ideal for haircuts, blends, & lineups.
When you think of Sonos, you think of high-end audio. For those of you who want to have their vinyl to output pumping out their Sonos speakers, why not go to the source. Yup, Sonos has their own turntable listed on their site to work w/ your setup via the Amp, Five, or Port. You got the expected speeds of 33/45 RPMs on a belt drive, heavy glass platter, aluminum arm, and handmade by Pro-Ject in Europe. Making this the perfect gift for the audiophile dad w/ a Sonos setup.
