Laptop-Toting Dad
Dad may already have a laptop he lugs around to work, but he may not need that big, heavy laptop all the time. The Microsoft Surface 3 will take the weight off his shoulders while giving him options for how to work. Paired with the (extra) Surface 3 Type Cover, the Surface 3 is a powerful laptop capable of running all Windows programs and doing some serious work, complete with USB, headphone jack and micro USB. Detach the keyboard and Dad has a 10.8-inch high res tablet for kicking back and watching videos or reading the news. Price starts at $499
Mouse-Loving Dad
For dads who prefer a mouse to a laptop trackpad, there's the Logitech MX Masterwireless mouse. It's the perfect companion for desktop-loving dads or power users who like programmable functions that save time and clicks. Connect to devices via a receiver or Bluetooth - great for multi-taskers because it pairs with and lets you switch between up to three computers at once. It's larger than a portable mouse, but that's because it does so many more tricks, feels extremely comfortable in your hand and can track on virtually any surface. $99
Music-Loving Dad
Dad never has to be without tunes in the house just because someone forgot to install great-sounding speakers in every room. The Sengled Pulse Bluetooth bulb is a simple solution; it's an LED light bulb with integrated JBL Bluetooth speakers. They're super easy to install, just replace the bulb in any standard E26 socket and connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth. Use the Pulse app to control the music and dim the light. Pick up a master and satellite set of two bulbs for $169.

Connected Dad
Here's a real power tool for dad; the myCharge HubPlus portable charger has built-in Lightning and Micro USB cables for charging devices on the go.

Road Warrior Dad
Two hands on the wheel please Dad! When you use your phone as a GPS or audiobook companion while you drive, it's often hard to find the right spot for it. Mounting gadgets can get clumsy and they sometimes block the driver's view. Zuna Drive is a smartphone case that has a unique hinge on the back, enabling you to hang it in the air-conditioning vent. This eliminates those pesky wires while keeping the phone in line of sight where it's easily viewed with a quick glance. $39.99
Fun-Loving Dad
Seriously, what's more fun than flying a drone over the house or parking lot and taking pictures to share with mom and friends? Not much!
