Let’s be real—shopping for Dad can feel like a treasure hunt with no map and we’re not about to let Dad suffer through another year of boring socks or “World’s Best Dad” mugs.
This is a list of gifts for the secret tech guru, wannabe mixologist, or outdoor adventure king that will make your dad, stepdad, or granddad grin like the Cheshire cat in his very own gift-filled wonderland.
1. Bose SoundLink Flex Bluetooth Speaker – was £149.95 now £119.95
This is for the Dad who turns every BBQ into a full-blown garden rave (I’m that guy).

It’s durable enough for his clumsiest moments and stylish enough to sit proudly near the grill.

2. Oppo Reno13 FS – was £399.99 now £349.99
If you’ve read any of my previous articles, you’ll know I’ve got a soft spot for Oppo phones—and the Reno 13 FS is no exception. Right now, it’s just £349 (down from £400), and honestly, that’s a steal. The build quality is immaculate—strong, sturdy, and the UI is lightning-fast for a phone of this spec. These phones are way better than you’d expect for the price. The Oppo Reno 13 FS features a 6.67″ AMOLED Display and 12GB RAM 512GB ROM, plus 4K video recording capabilities and the superfast SUPERVOOC 2.0 Fast Charging support. I’ve reviewed the Reno 13 Pro before, and now that I’ve had time with the FS, I can safely say I’m a fan of both. I quickly snapped up MagSafe-style phone case, and boom—I was good to go. If you’re hunting for a Father’s Day gift that doesn’t break the bank but still packs a proper punch, this is definitely one to consider. Mid-range? Yes. Mid-performance? Absolutely not.
