Top 5 Stocking Stuffers And Last Minute Gifts For 2023

With the holiday season now in full swing, it’s time to get those gifts finalized and wrapped! But if you’re like us, there are probably a few people left on your list that still need an amazing gift or two. Never fear! The TWICE editors have gathered five of our top picks from products we’ve tested or have our eye on for last-minute gifts and stocking stuffers to help make your holiday gift-giving easier.

Incase Transfer 2-Way Tote (MSRP $99.95)

Want a great way to haul your daily gear around? We’ve tested out the Transfer 2-Way Tote, which features a super soft plush, faux-fur lined laptop compartment to protect against scratches, adjustable and removable shoulder straps, an easy-access interior mesh pocket, and a spacious main compartment for daily essentials, notebooks, small valuables, and whatever else your day may need.

The Incase Transfer 2-Way Tote fits up to a 16” laptop, and we really like how many pockets this bag has, including front and back slip pockets, a discrete zippered valuables pocket, zippered organizer pocket, and a zippered mesh main compartment pocket. An additional side water bottle compartment rounds out the pocket total.

We’ve taken this bag on numerous trips and weekend retreats over the past few months, and we’re impressed with the durability and style of this 2-Way Tote. Plus, it holds a ton of stuff! Definitely a great gift for that special someone who needs an adaptable bag for their gear this year.

Airfly Pro (MSRP $54.99)

Speaking of travel, we’re hoping Santa brings us this next stocking stuffer in time for our flight to CES 2023. What good is owning a great pair of Bluetooth headphones if you have to downgrade to the cheap wired Dollar Store ones the airlines give you just to watch the in-flight movies?

The Airfly Pro from Twelve South is a Bluetooth receiver that lets you use your AirPods or other Bluetooth headphones with most standard entertainment consoles on airplanes, boats, or other devices with a 3.5mm headphone jack. Just plug the Airfly Pro into a 3.5mm headphone jack and wirelessly transmit audio to up to two pairs of Bluetooth headphones at once, allowing two people to watch the same movie together. AirFly Pro has 16 hours of battery life, which is plenty of juice for most trips. This is one of the best stocking stuffers for travelers or someone you care about that has a vacation coming up.

Tribit AquaEase Bluetooth Shower Speaker (MSRP $39.99)

Move over, Adele, there’s a new vocal star on the rise…at least in our shower. We’ve been singing in the shower with the Tribit AquaEase Bluetooth Shower Speaker, a palm-sized IPX7 water-resistant rated speaker with tons of oompf and clear sound. The AquaEase is the tech device we never knew we wanted, but can’t live without now. No longer do you have to put your phone volume all the way up to hear your favorite tunes over the rushing water, bring the Tribit AquaEase into the shower with you – and leave it there!

Boasting up to 18 hours of playtime with only one charge (we haven’t run out of power in over a month and a half), and a super stable Bluetooth 5.3 connection, the AquaEase handles high-quality and high-speed wireless audio with ease. You can also answer phone calls during your bathing time, and the festive LED party light ring brings a bit of fun to your mornings. We like that you can adjust the clock and equalizer in the Tribit app – there’s lots of bass for a speaker this size. This is a great stocking stuffer for that hard-to-buy-for person on your list who loves music.

Apple AirTag (MSRP $29.00)

While there’s been some privacy controversy about the use of Apple AirTags, it’s still the best keyfinder you can get for someone with an iPhone. An AirTag makes it a breeze to keep tabs on where your items are, as well as locate them when they’re lost. You can use an AirTag to track down a misplaced item with audio and visual cues that lead you right to the AirTag’s location, whether it’s inside a backpack or wallet. You could even attach an AirTag to a pet, with the right collar. For an added personalized touch, you could order an AirTag directly from Apple with a free name or emoji engraving. Fancy!

myQ Chamberlain Smart Garage Control (MSRP $29.98)

Have you ever worried about if you’ve left your garage door open or wanted a way to open it for a neighbor or delivery no matter where you are? The myQ Chamberlain Smart Garage Control might be just what you need to put under the tree this holiday season.

The Smart Garage Control is compatible with all major brands of garage door openers manufactured after 1993 that have standard safety sensors and can make your existing garage door opener smart in minutes. It’s simple to install and allows you to link your existing garage door opener to the myQ App so you can control, secure, and monitor the garage from your smartphone. Once paired with the myQ App, it offers more than the ability to simply open and close a garage door.

Homeowners with Smart Garage Control benefit from on-the-go management of daily activities, like never having to wonder if the garage door was left open, receiving real-time alerts when children arrive home from school, remotely letting in the dog walker or service person, and now in-garage delivery to keep packages safe and secure.

Happy holidays from all of us at TWICE!
