Christmas is coming and I could not not bring to your attention some gift ideas, naturally tech, which will compose a virtual backpack, the one that I would always carry with me. In short, you can take a cue from my choices as a gift for Christmas 2018, but also for all other holidays, because the beauty of technology is that you can give it all year round, as a kind of GOOD NOT BIRTHDAY of the legendary short story Alice in Wonderland. Make yourself comfortable because I respect my colleagues I will propose something known but also something simple to which, however, often does not give weight, but that could actually make the difference for an original gift, rather than the classic pajamas.
The XiaomiToday technological backpack: 2018 Christmas gift ideas - Emanuele Edition
Of course we must necessarily start from the backpack, which is the base in which to store all our gadgets, and I have chosen to recommend a non-Xiaomi branded product, as I have never owned one and therefore it would be in a sense hypocritical to bring to your attention something that I could only touch with my hand in the Italian Mi Store in Arese. My choice therefore falls on the TIGERNU T - B3143 backpack, ideal for carrying a notebook up to 15,6 inches, which offers super-resistant and padded S-shaped shoulder straps and a design designed to balance the weight that is exerted. on the back. I also appreciated the reinforced hinges that also offer the possibility of inserting a small padlock as well as the hidden pocket in order to insert the wallet avoiding any theft from quick hands. The backpack is available in five colors, my favorite the one called coffee, while in terms of capacity we reach 20 liters.
At this point a good travel companion is definitely the smartphone, and this time that my choice falls on a Xiaomi product. Among all the models I've tried in this 2018, the one that most caught my attention and made me fall in love is undoubtedly the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite, to which I do not add anything else because I invite you to read our Full review and view our video review on YouTube. A best buy you will not regret.
Another faithful adventure companion cannot be missing, namely the notebook, with which to write articles and reviews, view multimedia content in streaming and much more. But personally I would not bring my primary notebook because if anything were to happen it would be serious trouble and therefore I would opt for a decidedly economical, but still functional version. Also in this case I am honest, I have not tried the product that I will propose to you but if I had to choose a secondary machine to entrust my work to, I would turn to the Jumper EZbook X3, equipped with 6 GB of DDR3L RAM, 64 GB of storage eMMC, Intel Apollo Lake N3350 Quad Core CPU up to 2,2 GHz, 13,3-inch Full HD display, 2 USB 3.0 ports, 1 HDMI, 3,5 mm jack and micro SD card slot as well as dual band WiFi . In short, everything you need for productivity on the move. I certainly wouldn't expect to edit heavy videos, but some chores can be taken home. Furthermore, the dark gray color gives a not indifferent charm to an ultra low cost machine, and if you think about it it is the perfect gift for students but also for the little tech fans who are starting to grow and who need a tool to carry out research, write themes. etc ..
Now we come to some articles that I would take with me, to pass the time because ultimately you can not always be attached to your smartphone or PC and then some fun takes, and then I propose two gift ideas in my opinion really concerned. The first is dedicated to young and old, as it is a portable gaming console that inside stores up to 168 retro games that many will turn on many memories. I personally have already bought it and I hope that these days come into my hands to spend hours of pure fun and if I had to get tired of the small screen I could always attach it to the TV through the cable provided. The other pastime is at the same time smart but very educational, in fact I propose the Rubik's cube in Xiaomi style, that is the GiiKER Cube that might seem a trivial puzzle but in reality to support this gadget we find an application that will allow us to learn new techniques and keep track of our progress through tutorials and challenging challenges. Extremely portable, this Xiaomi smart cube is certainly an idea that should not be underestimated.
Another gadget that I think should not be missing in a backpack, since it could be thirsty during our travels, is a container in which to insert fresh water that is kept as such, which instead a simple plastic bottle could not do. But at the same time you could be lovers instead of a good hot tea or coffee addicts ... well, we always meet Xiaomi with a really smart thermos. I speak of the KissKissFish Cup which integrates on the lid a small OLED display able to provide us in real time the temperature at which our favorite beverage is located. Xiaomi ensures full temperature maintenance for at least 6 hours, also the materials used are of excellent quality, perhaps the only drawback is the capacity limited to 430 ml, but then in a backpack we can not certainly insert a carboy.
To conclude I can not but mention two very important products: the first is a pair of Bluetooth headsets Xiaomi with headband deisgn, characterized by a weight of only 35 grams and that despite the battery limited to 137 mAh can offer up to 7 hours of continuous playback of audio giving a good sound in isolation from the noises of the environment that surrounds us. Last but not least the action cam I absolutely love, for versatility, price and features offered. I'm talking about the mythical Mijia Mini Action Cam 4K that since we did the review, which I invite you to read, has received a series of updates that have further refined the quality offered, such as the integration of the color profile V-LOG in order to facilitate any color correction in post production.
Now I'm curious to know from you which gadget would you put inside your backpack?
