IT’S NEVER TOO EARLY to start thinking about holiday season gift-giving, at least that’s the thinking at Amazon as they have curated an interesting collection of UNIQUE GIFTS. And it’s not just designer and expensive items. For example, if you don’t want to pay big bucks for Apple or BOSE or Sony headphones, for just $20 you can get this KVIDIO Bluetooth in multiple color options, with a 4.5 out of 5 on over 10K customer ratings. It’s Bluetooth 5.3, with 18 months warranty, can also play music via 3.5mm audio cable, USB-C charging (cable included!), 65 hours promised playback time, foldable, etc, etc, etc.
