Year in review: The gadgets I actually bought in 2018 (for myself or people I really like)

Stuck on what to get your loved ones for the holidays? As a tech reviewer, I get to play with all the best new gadgets before they hit store shelves, but I don't get to keep them. That means this time every year, I'm leaning over my laptop -- fingers twitching and crediting cards itching -- to buy a few of my favorites for myself or people I really, really like. Here's what I shelled out my very own money to buy this year. This is the year of voice-activated smart displays.
