Christmas comes around only once a year, and when it does, it's a great opportunity to show those around you how much you love and care for them. One way to show them is by picking up a gift they've been dreaming of, or one they never knew they needed. And if you're shopping for a boyfriend, that task might feel a little intimidating.
Whether it's a new relationship or you've been together for a while now, this gift guide is a great place to find a gift for your boyfriend, no matter what he's into.
What are the best boyfriend Christmas gifts?
We like to think the best Christmas gifts for anyone are those that show you're thinking about them. Is your boyfriend always losing his phone charger? Pick up a charging docket that can take care of all of his devices at once. Is he obsessed with football but doesn't have live TV? Gift him a Hulu premium subscription that allows him to watch his favorite games in real time. If you still need more inspiration, read on for our top 30 picks of best boyfriend gifts for Christmas.

ZWILLING 2-in-1 Digital Kitchen Food Scale
This phone charging station actually doubles as a food scale (or is it the other way around?), making it the perfect double-duty gift for any kitchen. "You might be wondering why I chose a scale for a gift list," says Oprah. "Sure, this sleek and stylish piece can weigh up to 22 pounds of ingredients, but it has a secret: It’s also a phone or tablet charger!” Instead of letting this collect dust when he's not measuring food, he can keep it close by as a handy, wireless charger.
