The Information’s Top Tech-Adjacent Gifts for 2021

This year, there is no shortage of material—and immaterial—ways to show people you care. NFTs are certainly a choice, one that is more popular than ever, even if we can’t guarantee they’ll hold their absurdist values through the New Year. Another option is the ever-elusive Tungsten Cube, a hot commodity within crypto circles. One of these heavy hunks of metal will make you the hit of any holiday party—that is, if you wish to spare $3,500 on a glorified paperweight.

But perhaps you’re in the market for an in-between: a gift both on-trend and accessible, high tech and high quality, personal and not liable to plummet in value in the time it takes you to read this. Well, we’ve got you covered. Here at The Information Weekend, our reporters, editors and staff compiled a dream 2021 holiday shopping list made up of products we’ve bought, tested and loved ourselves. From an entry-level electric scooter to a toy that teaches toddlers algorithms, you’ll find a curated pick for everyone on your list. See our ultimate 2021 holiday gift guide below.
