College kids usually appreciate the latest gadgets being gifted to them as they are the first ones to explore the latest tech trends. They love toying with newer technologies being introduced every few months and not only that, gadgets meant for college kids are affordable as well. So, the next time you go hunting for a gift for a college student, be sure to explore some of the options given below:
1. Backpack with USB Charging
It is cliche to gift a college student a laptop backpack, but what if it could also charge their devices too? Backpacks with USB charging ports are surprisingly useful. Students can put their existing power banks aside, so that they can keep their phones charged while running from class to class without having to carry a cable around with them.
2. Noise-Cancelling Headphones
Ambient background noise can be eliminated with noise-canceling headphones. If you are attending online lectures or talking on a call with someone, this is extremely useful for students since it makes audio much clearer to hear, eliminating interference from a noisy environment.

3. Fitbit
The wearable technology industry is not new, with companies such as Samsung and Apple active in the space. However, Fitbit remains unbeatable for its versatility and reliability. Fitbit is primarily a health-tracking device, which accurately measures heart rate. This data is then used to calculate sleep patterns and calories burned, allowing users to better understand their health.
4. Portable SSD
It is no longer enough to simply have a few extra gigabytes of storage. What you need is a portable SSD. It is common knowledge that Solid State Drives have superfast read-write speeds while external hard drives usually come with one terabyte of storage. There are many big brands offering more or less the same features at similar price points. If you're looking for a fool-proof gift for students, select one of the leading portable SSD brands.

You can ring it or check its latest location to locate it.
So try gifting some of these gadgets that will be useful and surely make your college kid very happy.
