Best tech gifts under $50

Top pick: the Anker Prime 67W 3-port GaN charger. It's the gift that gets used every single day — one brick that fast-charges a phone, tablet and laptop at once, and it's tiny enough to live in a bag. Nearly everyone has a drawer of slow chargers it quietly replaces.

Who the others suit:

• Roku Streaming Stick Plus — anyone with an older TV who wants 4K apps and voice search without buying a new set.
• Tribit StormBox Mini+ — a small Bluetooth speaker for showers, picnics and dorm rooms.
• 8BitDo Ultimate 2C controller — the gamer who plays on PC or Switch and wants a proper pad.
• Kodak Charmera — the friend who'd love a keychain-sized retro digital camera.
• Tile Mate — the chronically forgetful: keys, wallet, backpack.
• Anker Nano 45W with smart display — a one-cable travel charger with a screen showing wattage.
• Razer Reclusa X Mini 65% — a compact mechanical keyboard for a desk setup.
• Magcubic mini projector — movie nights on a wall or a tent; expect dim, 720p picture.
• Chargeworx stand set — a stocking-stuffer for a phone-on-the-desk person.
