This Mother’s Day, forget the slippers and scented candles – give her something extraordinary.


As mothers become more tech-savvy, an electronic gadget may just be the perfect gift for your mom this Mother’s Day.

Moms carry the world on their shoulders every day and somehow still manage to show up for their kids, whether it’s our favourite meal, a much-needed hug or that stern glare that sets us straight.

This Mother’s Day, forget the slippers and scented candles – give her something extraordinary – something she’ll actually use, enjoy and maybe even brag about to her friends.

Whether she’s a fitness freak, always on the move, loves her music loud or captures every moment on camera,  there is smart tech there to help you spoil her properly.

These are some of the tech gadgets you can get your mom this Mother’s Day and they don’t have to break the bank or even burn a hole in your pocket.

Creativity

If your mom is the family’s unofficial photographer and memory keeper, the Sony ZV-E10 II is a gift she’ll cherish. This powerful yet compact vlogging camera is designed to go wherever she goes, making it perfect for documenting everything from family road trips to everyday magic.

Its lightweight build and extended battery life of up to 195 minutes per charge mean she can shoot all day without missing a moment. With intuitive controls and seamless connectivity, capturing and sharing memories has never been easier.

Lego

You can get a bunch of fresh roses, which will eventually wither, or you can get the Lego Botanical range, a unique and thoughtful way to say “I love you”.

Every botanical set speaks a different love language. Unlike real flowers, these beauties never need watering and will be an everlasting symbol of your love.

They are a thoughtful alternative to the usual bouquet, making them the perfect gift that will last beyond Mother’s Day.

Personalised phone cases

While phone cases might look like a small gift, they can be personalised to any design that you want, which adds a special touch. You can use the photo of the two of you along with a meaningful quote. This case would work as a reminder of your true love for your mom.

Smartphones

Smartphones can be pricey, but you can consider entry-level smartphones from the likes of Vivo Huawei, Honor, Samsung, Tecno and Xiaomi, among others. 

A relationship situation to celebrate is the one you have with your smartphone, which is a constant companion in your life, bringing so much connectivity, functionality, convenience and entertainment with it. Smartphones can ensure that you are always in touch with your mom.

Smartwatches

Smartwatches may be the perfect gift to ensure that your mom is always in good health. Today’s smart wearables measure everything from your blood pressure to your heart rate, like the Huawei Watch D2, the world’s first officially certified auxiliary blood pressure monitor (ABPM).

There are a plethora of other features also available on other brands like Apple, Samsung and Garmin, which measure blood oxygen, heart rate, track sleep, emotional well-being and stress levels, not to forget that your mom can even keep her golf game up with the Huawei GT series.
