If you’re still not sure what to get for Dad this Father’s Day, I’ve got a fun idea the whole family can get into!
This Saturday, June 17, head over to the Vancouver-Cambie Best Buy store for a FREE workshop event from 1:00-6:00 pm where you can design and build your own customized, one-of-a-kind Father’s Day gift with the help of MakeLab’s laser printer. This is a great opportunity for fathers and their kids to create a fun and unique project together!
WHEN: Saturday, June 17 from 1:00-6:00 pm
WHERE: 2220 Cambie Street, Vancouver
Hubby is all about the tech, and Best Buy is one of my favourite places to shop for him. They’ve got some great last minute technology gifts for the dad who has everything, including some of the coolest gear from Google!
Google Pixel
Pixel is Google’s newest phone. The Pixel XL boasts a crystal clear 5.5″ display, 128 MB, and an all-day battery life. Its Google Assistant will help Dad get stuff done, while Android 7.0 Nougat and a quad-core processor ensure a smooth ride. The 12.3MP rear camera with f/2.0 aperture captures crisp images day or night and records lifelike 4K video at 30fps, while the 8MP front camera records 1080p video.
Chromebook
Powered by the Google Chrome operating system, a sleek and lightweight ChromeBook integrates and runs all Dad’s favourite Google apps at blazingly fast speeds. Dual WiFi makes it even easier to connect to wireless networks, so he can stream, download, send, and share with less interruption. And because everything in the Chromebook is web-based, it’s as easy to use and simple to set up as it is fast.
Google Chromecast
The entertainment options are endless with a Google Chromecast. This little device plugs into your TV’s HDMI port to open up a world of entertainment — all controlled through Dad’s mobile device. Dad can stream his favourite TV shows, movies, music, or games from his apps, and still text or call without interrupting what’s playing. The new Chromecast Ultra streams up to 4K Ultra HD & HDR.
