Not a lot of people know this, but our smartphones are a breeding ground for all types of bacteria. Regular cleaning methods can only do so much, but the Phonesoap 3 promises to zap these bugs dead. The device is equipped with UV-C bulbs on the top and bottom to give our devices a thorough cleanse.

There’s also a dedicated slot for the charging cable so your smartphone stays juiced up while being treated. Best of all, it is not limited to mobile devices. As long as whatever needs disinfecting fits inside, it will get the job done.

Modern mobile devices are normally equipped with batteries that can get you through the day. However, heavy usage can quickly have you searching for the nearest power outlet. Maybe it’s time to consider grabbing the Anker PowerCore 1000 as a reliable backup.

As the name implies, we’re looking at 10,000 mAh power bank that comes with a proprietary charging system. Using the PowerIQ and VoltageBoost function, it can detect and support the appropriate requirements of various devices. Anker is one of the most reliable brands available in the market.

Reading books is one of our favorite leisure activities aside from watching TV or playing video games. However, buying physical reading materials is not exactly an eco-friendly practice. Hence, we would rather go for a reliable e-book reader such as the Kindle Paperwhite from Amazon

This latest model now boasts an IPX8-rated construction to allow users to read wherever they want. It is available in 8 GB or 32 GB variants and features an adjustable backlight for enjoying a good story in low-light environments.

Being on top can have its perks, but on the flip side, the pressure it brings can be downright stressful. Hence, the best way to deal with it is to find new ways to relax. This miniature Zen Garden set from Painstinspiration might be the key to achieve ultimate peace of mind.

Inspired by traditional Japanese rock gardens, it comes with a container, stones, sand, and a small handmade rake which you can drag along to create intricate patterns. It’s as close to the real thing but scaled-down sit on your desk.

It might sound like stereotypical, but most bosses should have a fine set of drinks on hand for various reasons. While keeping them inside the original bottle is cool, owning an elaborate container seems better. The Constellation1979 decanter right here just oozes the right amount of style.

Sitting within the hand-blown glass vessel is a handcrafted ship that can appear submerged or afloat depending on how much you drink before the next refill. To top it all off, the decanter sits on a fancy wooden base. Finally, Prestige Decanters promises to plant a tree for each of one of these sold.

While everyone else gets their boss a fancy pen as a gift, we would rather go for a writing instrument that can do more. The Gerber Impromptu does exactly what its name suggests. Fashioned with a machined steel body and a stainless steel pocket clip, this is one heavy-duty EDC anyone should have in an emergency.

It is armed with a push-button mechanism that retracts and deploys the ballpoint tip. Moreover, the Rite in Rain ink cartridge is versatile enough to write even in the toughest conditions. Ultimately, the glass-breaker tip can be used for self-defence when the situation calls for it.

This cute little critter measures about six inches long and is crafted out of resin. On top of holding onto your tape, it could double as a reliable paperweight. On the other hand, it appears to be judging you silently like your manager probably does.

Whoever invented the bubble wrap probably did not expect the wrapping material to become a major source of relaxation. The soft texture of the plastic coupled with the satisfying pop can be addicting for some people. Your boss probably thinks so too, which is why the Bubble Wrap Calendar would make a cool gift.

Each column features a bubble waiting to be popped for each day on the month. The challenge here is to stop yourself from popping everything at one go. Trust us, just like the slogan for a particular brand of potato crisps, “once you pop, you can’t stop,” You have been warned.

While a lot of people are raving about cold brew coffee, most of us still prefer to sip a hot cup java. You’ve probably given your boss a USB-powered mug warmer at one point, but its time to take it to another level. The Cauldryn Coffee Travel Mug is a 16-ounce modular container with a built-in heating element.

This smart mug lasts up to 10 hours on a single charge and can even boil water. The temperature control system can keep your coffee, tea, or drink of your choice as hot as you need it to be. With the help of the optional blender attachment, you can make smoothies and other cold beverages anytime and anywhere.

Earlier, we suggested a cool gift for your boss that keeps beverages such as coffee and tea piping hot for a long time. Now, let’s shift over to larger food items that might need a similar container to preserve their temperature. The Zojirushi Food Jar is by far the best when it comes to performance.

Using the brand’s renowned vacuum insulation technology can keep the contents hot or cold for hours. It’s ideal for storing and transporting homemade meals to the office to minimize the usage of disposable containers or wrappers.

The lid features a dimpled surface to maximize grip, while the built-in vent regulates the pressure inside from hot contents for added safety. Enjoy delicious food that stays hot, warm, or cold with this awesome food jar.

Here we have a gift idea that would make someone who loves drinking whiskey, bourbon, and other similar spirits. While purists would never think of diluting their glass of scotch, experts suggest that the amber liquid tastes better chilled. With the BROTEC Brother’s Stones, anyone can enjoy their drink chilled by the stylish rocks.

It comes in a premium wooden box and includes eight smooth granite chilling stones, a black velvet bag,  and two elegant 80 ml crystal glasses. It’s time to say goodbye to watered-down whiskey. To get started, just wash the stones and pop them in the freezer for about four hours and it should be ready to use.

Is your boss someone who leaves the office and comes back a short moment after because of stuff being left behind? If the answer is yes, then we have a useful gift idea for you. The Tile Sport is a compact device that can help anyone locate essential items that normally easy to lose or leave behind.

Clip to your keys, bag, backpack, and any other objects that need to be with you at all times. Using the companion app on your smartphone, you can set the Tile Sport to vibrate and emit an audible alarm tone. You can even use it the other way around and locate your mobile phone by clicking the button twice.

When whiskey is not your thing, the beer is probably what makes you happy. Sharing a cold one with your boss after work is awesome, which is why the goal is to keep the amber brew as cold as possible. Corksicle Chillsner is the whiskey stone for beer lovers out there.

Just remember to keep them in the freezer when not in use, so they’re ready to go when need arises. Never sip tepid beer again with these in your drinking arsenal and they should fit most standard size beer bottles as well.
