Practically Indestructible Gadgets That Make Great Gifts
There are a few tech gadgets that, to me, seem like poorly made, or cheaply. Your new phone arrives and needs to be cosseted in a case right away; they seem so fragile.
Flimsy gadgets do not seem to last any time at all, making you wish that you had bought a more rugged item in the first place.
So here is a selection of my favorite rugged items that seem practically indestructible and might last you a good while longer than the breakable tech gadgets that frustrate you so much.
