So, if you are planning to buy the perfect gift this Diwali, here is a short list to help you make an informed decision. Although we have listed the gadgets in different categories, the reader is free to decide which brand they want to buy according to their needs. Here’s a quick compilation of tech gifts:
iPhone16
In September, Apple launched the latest generation of its famous smartphone: the iPhone. The all-new iPhone 16 is powered by the A18 chipset and features improved cameras, including an ultra-wide lens with autofocus for detailed macro shots; a 48MP Fusion camera and a 2x telephoto lens. Apple is also set to launch Apple Intelligence features later this month, which will make it a worthy device. When it comes to build quality, the iPhone 16 sports an aerospace-grade aluminum design. It features longer battery life with up to 22 hours of video playback and offers faster charging capabilities via USB-C and MagSafe. The iPhone 16 was launched at Rs 79,900 for the 128GB variant, however, Flipkart and Amazon are offering lucrative deals, which brings the price down further.
Marshal Emberton II
For any music lover, gifting the best audio device can mean a lot to them. There are thousands of Bluetooth speakers available on the Internet. We think the Emberton II portable Bluetooth speaker from Marshall can be a versatile gift. It delivers powerful 20W of sound power with a 2-channel configuration and dynamic drivers ensuring that no detail of your favorite tracks is lost.

It’s the era of smart speakers and voice assistants. If you want to give your loved one something more than a speaker, like a device that can act as a voice assistant, then the Amazon Echo Dot 5th generation is a device that can help you with everyday tasks. While searching for a quick recipe, shopping, important news and even weather updates from time to time, Echo Dot can be your effective assistant. When it comes to sound quality, it offers deeper bass and clearer vocals. One can listen to music from some of the most popular streaming services and even voice control smart devices such as air conditioners, lights and televisions. It can automate tasks like turning on lights and air conditioning, managing reminders, setting alarms, and tracking shopping lists in Hindi and English. The Amazon Echo Dot is priced at Rs 4,449.
