Here’s a list of the best business accessories, laptop gadgets, and must-have tech for the office to improve productivity and elevate your comfort levels. Below, you’ll find the tastiest tech, including a Thunderbolt dock adapter that serves power and data to all your devices and a backup power supply that keeps you going when the power’s off.
You’ll also find a rechargeable pen that feels just like writing on paper, a gorgeous USB microphone to add style to your podcast, and enough laptop sleeves, backpacks, and headsets to keep even the most tech-savvy shoppers happy.
Whether you’re buying something for that tough-to-please loved one or looking to splurge on yourself, you’ll find what you need here to make your business life seamless.

1. HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W with HDMI Adapter

Taking your laptop from your desk to the couch shouldn’t feel like unplugging from the Matrix. With the HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W, you’ll unplug a single cable for your monitors, power supply, keyboard, phone, earbud, fitness tracker, and anything else you’re charging.
Instead of feeling like a switchboard operator from a black-and-white movie, you’ll dock and undock in a second and get back to being productive. This business accessory saves space and provides a USB-C to HDMI 2.0 connection, 2 USB 3.1 ports, VGA, dual display ports, 2 USB-C, an RJ45 jack, and a 120W power supply – all in one little cube.

2. HP Instant Ink

HP Instant Ink is hands-down the best business accessory for HP printer users. The printer orders ink for you when you need it – at a shockingly low price. Most average home business users will pay just a few dollars a month without needing to buy ink online or in stores. The ink shows up automatically in the mail.
Next, just pop the spent cartridges in the prepaid envelope and stick them in the mailbox for recycling. Instant carbon footprint shrinkage. And by the way, if there’s ever a problem, the tech chat support is astounding, getting you up and running again fast.

3. Yootech Wireless Charger for iPhone and Android

Wireless charging is the wave of the future, and the Yootech Wireless Charger delivers for a shockingly low price point. You’ll charge your iPhone, Samsung Galaxy phone, or air pods with no plugging in to worry about.
Charging is fast, too, but you need to buy a separate power adapter for fast-charge. Just drop your phone or device on the pad (even with the case on) and get back to full power. This is one of the best business accessories for the price.

4. HP Wireless Keyboard and Mouse 300

Thin, light, and ultra-portable laptops are a joy when you’re on the go, working on projects from a ski house or park bench. But there’s nothing quite like a full keyboard and mouse to add comfort and deep ergonomics.
The HP Wireless Keyboard and Mouse 300 blends affordability and convenience in a sleek, black package you can toss in your checked bag in a pinch. A single receiver connects both business gadgets, delivering full functionality and portability in one attractive package.

5. HP ENVY Pro 6475 All-In-One Printer

The paperless society is here, but we still need to fax, print, copy, and scan certain documents for business, legal, and kid-friendly activities. The HP ENVY Pro 6475 All-in-One printer does it all, with a super-high 1200 x 1200 black dpi resolution and up to 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi color when you print on photo paper.
This printer also comes with a showstopping 2 years of ink delivered to your door, so you can keep printing contracts and the kids’ coloring pages without paying a cent for your ink.

6. HP Pen

Tablets and touch screen laptops are fun and convenient, but they’re so much more useful with a pen. For note-taking, annotating pictures and screenshots, and giving powerful presentations, the HP Pen is high on the list of the best tech accessories.
This pen uses the latest N-trig technology for heightened precision, while pressure sensitivity gives you complete control while you’re writing and navigating. It even automatically converts your handwriting to document text, letting you “write” documents keyboard-free.

7. Dual M27fw FHD Monitor Bundle

Let’s stop the squinting, stooping, and neck pain right now with a pair of 27-inch Full HD monitors with ultra-wide viewing angles and unbelievably crisp color. Your wrist will also thank you as you move your mouse less and boost your productivity with more screen real estate.
The Dual M27fw FHD Monitor Bundle comes with Eyesafe technology that cares for your eyes without turning your work world to an off-yellow hue. This is one of the best productivity gadgets for healthier vision and a more comfortable work life.

8. Kensington USB 3.0 Docking Station with Dual DVI/HDMI/VGA Video

Super slim doesn’t have to mean super limited. With the Kensington USB 3.0 Docking Station, you’ll get 6 hot-swappable USB 3.0 ports, plus connectivity for HDMI, DVI, and VGA monitors. You can even run dual 1080 HD monitors from this bad boy.
A dock like this is a great office gadget to improve productivity and keep you from constantly tripping over a gnarly tangle of office cables. You or your business-warrior loved one will spend less time plugging and unplugging, and more time getting stuff done. You’ll also have more real estate for your desk lamp, water bottle, and other business accessories.

9. HP Rechargeable MPP 2.0 Tilt Pen

There are digital pens, and then there’s the HP Rechargeable MPP 2.0 Tilt Pen. This must-have office gadget delivers a uniquely smooth writing experience with just 9 grams of pressure (about the same weight as 2 paper clips).
The MPP 2.0 technology zaps the delays between when you write and when you see it show up on the screen. Edit, draw, doodle, sign, and mark up documents with one of the best technology accessories for your left brain.

10. APC Back-UPS Pro 1000VA 120V

“Honey, the power went out!” You won’t care a lick about that with an uninterruptible power supply in your corner. The APC Back-UPS Pro 1000VA 120V delivers premium backup laptop power and surge protection to keep your WiFi up and running no matter what.
When the power goes out, you’ll love how this device lets you save documents, keep gaming or using your favorite streaming services, and stay connected to the internet. Get 43 minutes of 100W battery life to keep your heart rate in check no matter what happens to the power lines outside.

11. APC Back-UPS USB Charging Port

The APC Back-UPS USB Charging Port is an affordable, uninterruptible power supply that’s more than a versatile power strip and surge protector. It comes in handy during surprise power outages, keeping your wireless network, gaming console, or computer up and running while you work from home.
It’s sealed, spill-proof, maintenance-free, and can even stand up to a dangerous surge like a lightning strike. The size is a lot smaller than you’ve seen from full-size UPS devices in the past too, so protection doesn’t have to look ugly. This is among the best business accessories for living off the grid.

12. HyperX QuadCast - USB Microphone (Black-Red) - Red Lighting

When you’re on a podcast, you need great sound and to look great. The HyperX QuadCast USB Microphone combines that high-end studio look and feel with beautiful studio sound. It’s one of the most striking laptop accessories for on-air pros.
This professional-looking mic comes with an attractive built-in anti-vibration shock mount for when you slap your palm on the desktop in excitement. There’s also a tap-to-mute sensor with a handy LED indicator to avoid those embarrassing hot-mic takes.

13. HP Lightweight 15.6 Laptop Sleeve

We all know that accidents happen, but you don’t have to worry about your laptop’s safety with the HP Lightweight 15.6 Laptop Sleeve. This handsome laptop bag is thickly padded and looks the part, too, with attractive and water-resistant fabric that keeps your tech safe from spills.
Carry it in hand or attach the shoulder strap to wear it as a form-hugging briefcase. The easy-access pockets leave room for your wireless earbuds, iPhone, Android phone, or other high-tech business gadgets.

14. HP Commuter Backpack

The price point is low for this sleek, functional business accessory, so you can tote your HP ZBook or ENVY in style.
