I've spent a lot of years trying to navigate my Dad's hobbies to line up with what to get him for Father's Day. For years, it was anything golf-related... and then he quit. Then, he was really into his garden... and then he moved. Now, he's finally embracing a love of tech and I feel like I've found my calling.

I've been writing about tech for years and I've always been his go-to for advice on what to buy next. So, when it starts getting close to Father's Day, I start being less generous with my advice, instead squirrelling away the ideas for myself. I also have two little kids so Father's Day doubles up as buying for my own Dad and now their Dad.

Fortunately, I've already done my research and these are the 12 gifts that are perfect for tech-loving Dads – and they're budget-friendly, too.
