The Gadgets Wishlist
Gadgets|November 2019
It’s been a long, challenging year for everyone, but here you are at the end of it, still standing. Just like the rest of you, the Gadgets Editorial team have had a whole year to think about and choose the gifts we want to get ourselves. Again like you, we each have our own interests, and since it’s such a wide word of tech out there, we’d like to share our own Christmas wishlists with you—who knows? You might get a few ideas yourself. From home devices, to consumer electronics and gaming hardware, here are a few items you might want to put on your own shopping list this season.

The Home Wishlist

Words by Ren Alcantara

While my wife and I don’t have a particularly large home, it nonetheless remains our castle. Home for us is a condo with a dog, a cat, and all the things that make living there quite comfortable. Still, there are a few things I personally feel would allow condo life to be a little more convenient, because with the traffic, work, and everything else going on, who doesn’t want an easier job keeping the house?

A Robot Vacuum

I get it. This is such a stereotypical modern home appliance to want to have. Still, with two fluffy residents sharing our space, there’s no end to the fur that accumulates on the floor. Sweeping daily only barely keeps the mess at bay, and really, who has time to do that? A robot vacuum such as the Roomba or Xiaomi’s own offering is something that a solo condo-dweller or a couple living in a small space should consider. It’s smart, convenient, and actually does free up a significant amount of time that would otherwise be spent sweeping.

A Mean Vacuum Cleaner

Autonomous vacuum cleaners are great, but for some jobs, a powerful hand-held vacuum cleaner is necessary. We’ve long needed to replace our old-style bagged machine for something a little more modern and compact, and while it’s a little pricey, we have been toying with the idea of buying something like the Dyson V-11 handheld cordless vacuum. Reasonably compact, with great runtime and superb performance, it’s something that can be used for both spot cleaning, or the more general top-down, all-around type cleaning my wife loves to randomly do without warning. If you’re going to have to suddenly clean the entire place, you might as well have good tools for it.
