Features: A Bluetooth wireless connection with a range of up to 30 feet, a built-in microphone, a 35-hour battery life, and a 3.5-hour charge time. Sony has long been known for its quality headphones, and while these don't have active noise cancellation, the over-the-ear design still offers plenty of protection from external noise. These headphones also feature track selection, so mom doesn't need to run to the phone to skip to her favorite song. Charging is done via a USB-C cable, and the headphones weigh less than a pound. These headphones also come with a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

The Apple AirPods Pro 2 are water-resistant, offer active noise cancellation, have a built-in microphone, a charging carrying case, and have six hours of battery life.

This chic wristwatch has an impressive 32GB of storage and up to 40 hours of use time between charges. (Not a typo!) There are myriad health and activity-tracking features, too: Blood oxygen, cadence, calories burned, distance swam, distance traveled, duration of exercise, duration of sleep stages, electrocardiography (ECG), hours slept, laps swam, pace, resting heart rate, skin temperature, stairs climbed, and steps taken.

Features: The prime differentiator between Fitbit and the competition is the level of detail you get in tracking statistics. Sleep, heart rate, activity, and other areas make the Fitbit an essential companion on your road to better health and better sleep. I haven't gone with a Fitbit in about a decade — and I own an Apple Watch and Pixel Watch. The Fitbit is just that good.

Features: When it comes to headphones in 2025, it's all about design. The Powerbeats Pro 2 wireless headphones — putting their amazing technology to the side for a moment — are incredible for their design. The arms you see wrap behind the ear of the wearer, and they quite simply do not come off.

Even better, the Powebeats Pro 2 has active noise cancellation, a 10-hour battery, and a 45-hour battery in the charging case. They also have fast charging. Finally, they can help measure your heart rate when you wear them on a run, in the gym, or pulling weeds in the garden.

Features: Over-the-ear wireless headphones are getting more common and for good reason. They offer natural noise protection via their design, are light enough to wear for long periods, and you can move around in them. The Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra Wireless headphones have a range of 30 feet, have a noise-cancelling microphone, an adjustable headband, and a strong 24 hours of battery life. Meanwhile, the battery only takes three hours to charge to full. You can also use these headphones with a wired connection if you'd like. They charge via a USB-C cable. And they're light — just over half a pound.
