Tech gadgets have never been more aesthetically pleasing than they are in 2019, which is good news for gift-givers and tech lovers everywhere since they’re basically the silver bullet of holiday shopping. (At the end of the day, aren’t we all just big kids who want cool toys?) 

From super-chic wireless earbuds to an at-home facial device, the most stylish tech gifts can be found online, meaning you don’t have to wait in line for hours at the mall -- or wait in traffic just to get to the mall -- in order to snag this year’s buzzy gadgets for Christmas gifts.

Seriously, what did we do before smart devices? Alexa, the voice-controlled AI assistant smart home device, has been making our lives a breeze since Echo first arrived back in 2014. We love the Echo Show 5 because it boasts a smart display with a built-in camera, two-way audio and a smart speaker enabled with voice command on a compact screen. The Echo Show 5 also gives you the option to control by voice or touch.
