Another Father’s Day, another year of wondering what to get Dad.

Socks? He has enough.
Another mug? Probably not.
Something he’ll actually use every day? Now we’re talking.

This Father’s Day, skip the usual gifts and give Dad a tech upgrade instead. Whether he’s always on the road, keeping his desk perfectly organised, travelling whenever he gets the chance or constantly running out of battery, we’ve picked out some of our favourite tech gifts to make choosing something for Dad a little easier.

We all know one.

His phone was at 15% when he left the house and somehow he still didn’t bring a charger.

For that Dad, portable power might be the most useful gift you can give him.

Small enough for everyday carry and easy to snap onto compatible magnetic phones, the Tough On 5000mAh Ultra Slim Magnetic Power Bank gives Dad extra power without carrying around a bulky charger.

With wireless charging plus 20W USB-C wired charging, he can choose between the convenience of going cable-free or plugging in when he needs a faster top-up.

Perfect for: The everyday dad who somehow never remembers to charge his phone.

For Dad who spends longer away from a power point, step things up with the Tough On 10,000mAh Magnetic Power Bank.

The larger capacity gives him more backup power for long days, weekends away and travelling, while magnetic wireless charging keeps things convenient when he’s on the move.

No more asking, “Does anyone have a charger?”

At least, hopefully.

Dad might be going overseas, heading away for work or simply planning the next family holiday.

Either way, the less tech he has to pack, the better.

The MagFold is made for keeping Dad’s charging setup simple while travelling.

It folds down into a compact design for easy packing, then opens into a 3-in-1 charging station for compatible iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods.

With Qi2.2 technology supporting up to 25W wireless charging for compatible iPhones, Dad can leave multiple chargers at home and keep his essential devices powered from one compact setup.

Hotel bedside tables just got a lot less messy.

Perfect for: Frequent flyers, business travellers and dads already planning their next holiday.

Music while working. Podcasts on the go. A call while walking the dog.

For the dad who always has something playing, open-ear headphones are a practical alternative to traditional earbuds.

The open-ear design lets Dad listen without completely blocking out his surroundings, making them a versatile option for everyday listening.

Whether he’s walking, getting things done around the house or catching up on his favourite podcast, he can stay connected to his audio while remaining more aware of what’s happening around him.

And because they don't sit inside the ear like traditional earbuds, they're a comfortable choice for longer listening sessions too.

Perfect for: The podcast dad, active dad or anyone who always has a playlist ready.

Sometimes a small power bank just isn’t going to cut it.

If Dad carries multiple devices, works on the go or wants something ready for long days away from home, give him something with a little more muscle.

With a large 20,000mAh capacity and up to 65W output, this is portable power designed for more demanding devices.

It’s ideal for keeping phones, tablets and compatible laptops powered while Dad is travelling, working remotely or spending a long day away from a wall socket.

The built-in USB-C cable also means there’s one less cable for him to forget.

Perfect for: The tech dad, travelling dad, remote worker or anyone carrying more than one device.

You don't need to find the most complicated gadget to make a good Father’s Day gift.

Think about something Dad does every day.

Does he drive to work? Upgrade his car setup.

Is his bedside table covered in cables? Give him a wireless charging station.

Does his phone constantly run out of battery? Power bank.

Is he always travelling? Give him something that makes packing easier.

The best tech gifts aren't necessarily the ones with the longest feature list. They're the ones that quietly make everyday life a little easier.

Father’s Day is about showing appreciation for the dads, grandads, stepdads, partners and father figures who are always there when we need them.

This year, give him something he'll actually put to use.

From wireless chargers and portable power to car accessories, headphones and everyday tech essentials, PTC has plenty of ways to help you find the right gift for Dad.
