From health gadgets to home-theater gear, tech is poised to be a big category during gift-giving season. Some of the biggest tech brands have unveiled new releases this year that are likely to climb high on wishlists. Google Fitbit released several new models of fitness trackers this year, including a slim screenless option for distraction-free workout tracking. For staying energized on the go, audio brand Shokz released several open-ear models targeted toward runners and cyclists.

On the home-tech front, Bose unveiled its first entry into the home audio space in years with the Lifestyle Ultra range. The collection includes stylish Wi-Fi-enabled speakers for multiroom audio, plus home-theater solutions like soundbars and subwoofers. And for keeping your smarthome secure, Ring is running several promotions on indoor cameras and doorbells.

Best Buy remains one of the best options for securing all of the tech gifts on your list. The retailer also offers various memberships for savings, including the My Best Buy Plus plan, which costs $30/year and includes free two-day shipping, 1% back in rewards, exclusive savings, and extended returns.

Whoever’s on your list, we’ve rounded up the best gear to gift from brands like FitBit and Bose that you can grab at Best Buy.

Shokz OpenFit Pro

$249.00

Shokz’s line of open-ear earbuds deliver big sound while maintaining awareness, making them a great option for outdoor workouts or just staying alert on the move. Several of their styles are on sale right now, including their OpenFit Pro earbuds that deliver rich sound quality, excellent comfort, and a stay-put over-ear fit.

Bose Lifestyle Ultra Home Speaker

$349.00

The Bose Lifestyle Ultra Home speaker is $50 off right now and delivers room-filling sound, whether you’re using it as a single speaker or part of a multiroom setup. You can cast audio over Chromecast or use Bluetooth, and it can be used as part of a home theater setup alongside the Ultra soundbar and subwoofer.

Google Fitbit Air

$99.99

A smartwatch can be a great way to keep on top of your health goals — but for some, a screen on their wrist can be too much of a distraction. That’s why Google’s Fitbit Air is a great gift for health-conscious minimalists. The sleek $99 tracker works without a subscription, but you can add more features like personalized coaching with a Google Health Premium membership.

Ring offers a number of cameras, including this affordable wired indoor option that’s currently discounted to $25 ahead of the holiday season.

Ring’s other cameras, including its doorbell cameras, are as much as 60% off.
