Between all the new phones, smartwatches, and laptops we see throughout the year, it often feels like we’re constantly being nudged toward shinier, more expensive gadgets. And I get it. As a self-professed gadget nerd, few things are more exciting than unboxing and setting up a new device.
But the truth is, you can still find plenty of great gifts for under $100. I use the Leatherman Free T4 every day, while Donkey Kong Bananza has provided me (and other Verge staffers) with hours of entertainment. If someone in your life loves the satisfaction of building and has shelves full of knickknacks on display, the Lego Game Boy is (as our reviewer termed it) a brick masterpiece. To make your holiday shopping easier, we’ve compiled a list of the best gadgets and gear under $100, from durable travel bags to affordable wireless earbuds.
