Christmas Tech Gifts for Boyfriends: The Best Discounts and Deals

Do you have a boyfriend that keeps breaking his phone? Maybe he’s walking around with a cracked screen. Or maybe he’s into music production and could really use a new laptop. Whichever one, let’s talk about some budget-friendly Christmas tech deals that you should consider for that special someone in your life :)

New iPhones are expensive… too expensive. As much as we may love our partners, buying the newest $1000 iPhone is unreasonable—and unnecessary. Thanks to the refurbished market, you can buy an iPhone from last year that still feels brand new yet costs a lot less than it did upon release. And if you want to do some more reading, here are our picks for the best iPhone offers for Christmas 2020.

Did you know that all iPads are known for receiving software updates for at least 5 years after their release? Apple provides stellar developer support on all their devices, even if you buy them refurbished from a third party. Buy a refurbished iPad that’s a couple years old if you want a long-lasting iPad that’s affordable.

It can be annoying if your partner has an Android while you have an iPhone (insert crying emoji here) but what can you do, everybody has his or her own preferences :/ If your boyfriend is an Android fan and needs a new device, consider getting a recent Google Pixel, Samsung Galaxy, or OnePlus. These are some of our favorite Android manufacturers because they offer great hardware with reliable OS updates and security patches.

I have a 2014 MacBook Air, and I still use it because new MacBooks are expensive. We suggest buying a refurbished MacBook from our website, they’re much cheaper than the offers on Apple.com, yet still come with a 1-year warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee. Just make sure the MacBook you're buying has at least 8GB of RAM and isn't older than 4 years if you want it to be a strong performer and still have a lot of digital muscle :D

And if you prefer a Windows laptop or Chromebook, we also got you covered!

Maybe none of these Christmas gift ideas are quite right for your boyfriend? If so, that’s OK! We’re not in the business of forcing you to buy something, we believe in sustainability and only buying what you absolutely need. It’s why we sell refurbished products: to foster a culture of reuse/recycling and make the planet at least a little bit cleaner :)
