If you're looking for a gift that's high on impact, but low on cost try the 1More ColorBuds. They have great audio quality and are an excellent fit. Perfect, for someone who loves to listen (to music, not people) as they work. 📸: Joseph Shin wired.trib.al/XKHl2hw 2/9
While not a conventionally romantic gift, nothing says I love you in 2021 like steady internet. If your giftee is buffering on video calls or complaining about internet speed, a Netgear Nighthawk AX4 Router might be just what they need. 📸: Amazon wired.trib.al/XKHl2hw 3/9
Remote workers' posture frequently resembles that of an aged goblin. A laptop stand can help alleviate poor posture and the ailments that accompany it, but they're also good tools for improving workspaces on the cheap. 📸:ObVus Solutions wired.trib.al/XKHl2hw 4/9
Late-night calls (Netflix binges) and slack updates can take a toll on any smartphone. So, give the gift of battery life with this Nimble Champ portable charger. 📸: Nimble wired.trib.al/XKHl2hw 5/9
Having your lunch al desko should always be a last resort. But at least with the Oxo Good Grips Sweep & Swipe Laptop Cleaner, you rid your keyboard of pesky crumbs and Cheeto residue. It's cheap and small enough to keep on a desk. 📸: Amazon wired.trib.al/XKHl2hw 6/9
Coffee is liquid gold, and nobody knows that more than telecommuters (particularly ones with kids). This battery-powered, temperature-controlling mug ensures that every sip sits at your giftee's ideal temperature.

Caudabe's Sheath takes that badge this year. The flexible polymer case has a micro-etched matte texture that almost feels like canvas; it's grippy and very thin. The buttons are all easy to press, and there's MagSafe embedded inside. 📸: Caudabe wired.trib.al/FB9kW1t 2/7 Image
