Looking for Valentine’s Day gift ideas for men? Guys of all ages love tech that’s useful and fun. Forget ties, socks, car care kits, and other typical gifts. Whether it’s a significant other, father, brother, son, or someone else in your life, check out these great ideas he’d surely love.
Gifts for the gamer guy
If he loves to play video games, consider getting him a new gaming console, like the Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One S. If he already owns one, look into a new video game he can play that fits with his personal tastes. Or help him enhance the gaming experience with a new virtual reality (VR) headset. With this gift, he can totally immerse himself in gaming, entering virtual worlds while wearing the headset and using handheld controllers.
Consider the Meta Quest 3, for example, which offers ultra-fast performance, Touch Plus controllers for greater precision, and more than 500 apps in the library from which to choose (he can still play games and apps he already owns in the Meta Quest library). It’s louder, more immersive, and a worthwhile upgrade even if he already owns the Meta Quest 2.
Gifts for his home office
If he works from home—or even just likes a polished, high-functioning workspace—the Lenovo Yoga 7i 2-in-1 laptop is a gift that instantly levels up his setup. The large 16-inch 2K IPS touchscreen delivers crisp visuals that make everything from spreadsheets to streaming look great, while the flexible 2-in-1 design lets him flip it into tablet mode for note-taking, sketching, or relaxed browsing. It’s sleek, powerful, and versatile enough to handle both workdays and downtime without breaking a sweat.
Pair that with an upgrade to his desk itself, and you’ve got a home office glow-up. The HUANUO ergonomic electric standing desk makes it easy to switch between sitting and standing with smooth height adjustments and four memory presets. With its sturdy steel frame, spacious light walnut desktop, and built-in USB charging, it’s a practical upgrade that boosts comfort, posture, and productivity all at once.
Gifts for his fitness routine
For guys who are into health and fitness, a gift that will help him reach his fitness and wellness goals will be an appreciated one.
Wearable tech like fitness trackers and smartwatches are always great gifts, and with so many great new ones, he might be in need of an upgrade. If he’s an Apple iPhone owner, the Apple Watch Series 11 is a strong choice. Help him stay motivated with the Workout Buddy feature that helps him track his workout performance in real-time. With Sleep Score, he can also get daily insights into the quality and duration of his sleep as soon as he wakes up in the morning.
If he’s into running, even training for a 5K or 10K, the Garmin Forerunner 265 will help him keep on top of his progress. It’s designed specifically for runners, featuring advanced heart rate tracking and training insights to help fine-tune performance.
Speaking of running, whether he’s logging kilometres outdoors or working out at the gym or home, he might love a pair of open-ear earbuds like the Shokz OpenFit Pro. Unlike traditional earbuds, these sit just outside the ear canal, letting him stay aware of his surroundings while still enjoying music, podcasts, and calls. They’re lightweight, sweat-resistant, and comfortable enough for long workouts—perfect for runners who want sound without sacrificing situational awareness.
You can also go big with a new cardio machine like a rowing machine that helps work all his muscles and won’t take up too much space in the basement, garage, or wherever he has set up his home gym. Or, consider a set of weights for strength training; he might even appreciate a weight bench so he can work on his upper body strength with a set of overhead bench presses every morning before heading to the office. Make sure to check what weights he already owns and get a set he can add to it.
For recovery days—or just sore muscles after a tough workout—the EZ-X Premium percussion massage gun is a thoughtful fitness gift he’ll reach for again and again. Designed with an extra-quiet yet powerful brushless motor, it delivers deep tissue percussive therapy with up to 30 speed levels to help relieve pain, reduce soreness, and speed up muscle recovery.
Gifts for personal care
Here are some thoughtful personal care gifts to consider just for him. A premium electric shaver like the Philips i9000 Prestige delivers a close, comfortable shave. This wet or dry shaver has advanced AI-powered SkinIQ that detects, guides, and adjusts to provide personalized skin comfort. It comes with a cleaning pod to keep the shaver fresh and ready to go.
Good oral care is important and an electric toothbrush is a gift he’ll appreciate every single day. The Oral-B iO Series 8 smart electric toothbrush combines gentle micro-vibrations with oscillating brush head technology for a deep yet comfortable clean. Built-in smart pressure sensors and app connectivity help guide better brushing habits, making it a practical upgrade for anyone serious about oral health.
Gifts for his audio obsession
If he’s into music, consider getting him something he can use to enjoy his favourite playlists. The Sony ULT FIELD 3 is a great option for both indoor and outdoor listening. Use the ULT button and enjoy a boosted bass for enhanced sound depth. Its compact, easy-to-carry design is perfect for trips to the beach, backyard hangs, or camping weekends.
You can’t go wrong with a new pair of headphones for a special guy either. Over-ear noise-cancelling headphones have become a go-to for work, travel, and downtime, and the Sennheiser ACCENTUM strike a great balance between comfort and sound quality. It offers rich, detailed audio, effective active noise cancellation, and long battery life—ideal for commuting, working from home, or zoning out with a favourite playlist. Bluetooth connectivity makes it easy to switch between devices like a phone and laptop, so they fit seamlessly into both work and play.
Gifts for his outdoor adventure
He might love a new drone to play around with outside, capturing scenic and overhead videos and impressing his friends with his skills.
DJI remains one of the top names in drones, and the DJI Neo 2 Quadcopter Drone Fly More Combo is a solid entry point for beginners and casual flyers. It comes ready to fly with a built-in camera, controller, and extra batteries for extended flight time. He can capture smooth aerial shots, practise cool maneuvers with confidence, and gradually build skills without feeling overwhelmed—perfect for weekend fun.
Speaking of DJI, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is a portable, handheld gimbal camera with a rotatable screen. With this, he can record everything from widescreen videos to TikToks and can take both videos and photos. He can edit content right in the app using handy templates. It’s super-easy to use, has great battery life, and it’s a gift any guy who loves to create content will appreciate.
