How do you know when you’ve bought the perfect gift? Well, just look at their face when they see the Apple logo on the box. That’s when you know!

To help you put this to the test, here’s some top Apple tech that we think anyone would like to see poking out of their Christmas stocking.

AirPods Pro (2nd generation)

These awesome AirPods Pro are all about rich and powerful sound, with active noise cancellation blocking out annoying background noise. Adaptive EQ uses microphones to measure what you're hearing and adjusts the frequency, so you can really lose yourself in your favourite sounds. Four pairs of silicone tips (XS, S, M and L) means you’ll always get a perfect fit, and you can enjoy up to 6 hours of listening - or up to 30 hours if you use the charging case.

iPhone 14

Buying for someone who loves taking photos with their phone? Then take a look at iPhone 14, with the most impressive camera system that’s ever been on a smartphone. With an enhanced main camera and improved image processing, it lets you capture awesome shots in all kinds of lighting conditions. Plus, there’s Action mode for incredible video footage - whether you’re filming while walking the dogs or playing with the kids, your video wills be clear and super-smooth.

The battery is the best that’s ever been on an iPhone. The Bionic chip and software are so efficient that your new iPhone 14 will now easily last all day, no matter what you’re doing.

iPhone 14 also comes with a potentially life-saving feature - crash detection. If you’re unlucky enough to be involved in a car crash, it can automatically contact the emergency services for you.

iPad Mini

You can bring big ideas to life on iPad Mini - Apple’s smallest tablet. With an edge-to-edge 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display, it’s perfectly portable and great for using on the go, especially for things like sketching in the park and catching up on TV shows during the morning commute.

If you add an Apple Pencil (2nd generation), it opens up a world of doodling, sketching and jotting down handwritten notes. It attaches magnetically to the side of iPad mini, so it’s always ready. The A15 Bionic chip is a bit of a beast and can handle complex editing software (if that’s what they’re into). So, if you think they’d appreciate a small tablet that’s just as good for work as it is for entertainment, this is a top choice.

Apple Watch SE (2022)

Know someone who wants to give lots of new activities a go? Apple Watch SE (2022) could be the gift for them. It’s packed with advanced sensors that can track specialist workouts like tai chi and pilates, along with faves like running, swimming, and yoga. And if they’re into hiking up serious slopes, they’ll get a lot of mileage from the built-in compass and real-time elevation readings.

Apple Watch SE also works a smart health assistant. Its built-in heart rate monitor gives an in-depth picture of their health and can quickly flag up if anything’s wrong. It can even call for help if it detects you’ve taken a heavy fall.
