We say p’shaaaa to those who think their men have everything already. Here are some need-to-buy ideas for your holiday shopping list. You’re welcome.
FULLY CHARGED
How often do you ask the same question, โHave you got a spare charger I could borrow?โ GoPlug bags double up as backpacks and universal chargers fully equipped with ports for anything that requires a source of power. Your laptop can be charged on the go, so you never rock up to a meeting unable to deliver that fascinating PowerPoint presentation. It charges USB devices and carries everything too. Brilliant.
STAY CONNECTED
It looks like the future has come early with this smart gadget that displays information while youโre driving as if itโs floating in front of you. With voice-recognition and touch-less gestures, you can now always stay connected with people on the go. Not only does it provide texting, but most social media is available too โ with a navigation system included. Perfect for those traffic snarls on the drive home from work.

PERI SIMPLE
What looks to be the first competitive alternative to GoPro, this piece of kit is a master of simplicity. The periscope-type HTC device allows for simple one-handed use, letting you tap for photos or press for videos, and including features such as time-lapse and slow motion. Perfect for documenting the good times in life, or even the dull ones if youโre not that interesting. Everything shot on the camera is also fired over to your phone.

BLINKING GREAT
If youโre so busy and important that notifications are appearing on your smartphone from more sources than Heinz, then The Blink1 could make your life that little bit easier. This handy device allows you to remain organized, with everything from your business emails to a โLikeโ on Facebook lighting up with a pre-selected colour so you never miss a thing. Could be handy when you need a prompt response to a young lady on certain dating appsโฆ

CHINON CHIC
This stylish iPhone speaker sees the modern and ancient worlds (well, the 1950s) collide. By utilising natural amplification, the Legato creates an intimate sound without using electricity. Handcrafted from ash hardwood, itโs as elegant as an iPhone speaker can get, and whether itโs John Legend or John Lennon resonating through the horn, youโll be a happy listener.
WARMING UP
Granted, there isnโt much call for warming your hands in Singapore, though this isnโt just a hand-warmer, itโs a three-in-one hand-warming, flashlight-bearing USB charger. Could come in handy โ pardon the pun โ at the cinema where, letโs be honest, things do get a bit chilly. Maybe your special lady has dropped an earring while simultaneously complaining about the low temps; flick on the flashlight, find said piece of jewellery and her heart will melt (with romantic thoughts, not because her hands are now too warm).

FINDERS KEY-PERS
Letโs face it, even the most organised person loses their keys from time to time. It usually happens when weโre in a mad rush. Thankfully, the iKey Finder is here to solve your problems โ as long as you havenโt lost your phone as well.
