Mini Bladeless FansGoogle Holiday 100: Not Sure What To Gift This Festive Season? Google Search Is Here To Help

As per Google Holiday 100, ‘mini bladeless fan’ was the top trending search query for bladeless fans over the past year. Often referred to as an Air multiplier fan, bladeless fans operate by expelling air through a circular or oval aperture without utilising conventional external blades. 

However, it's important to note that these fans do contain concealed blades attached to a propeller located within their base. The bladeless bit is more of a tech-y gimmick. 

Of course, you will find several mini bladeless fans on e-commerce portals such as Amazon, Flipkart, JioMart, or even Meesho. Prices can range from as low as Rs 500 to up to Rs 3,500, depending on the brand or quality of the product.

Mixed Reality HeadsetGoogle Holiday 100: Not Sure What To Gift This Festive Season? Google Search Is Here To Help

As per Facebook (now Meta) founder Mark Zuckerberg, the metaverse is where the future lies. Understandably, everyone from Samsung to Apple has now taken to bringing out mixed-reality headsets, which enable users to seamlessly blend their physical surroundings with a virtual environment, enabling them to interact using their natural hand movements, all while maintaining an uninterrupted experience within their head-mounted display.

As per Google Holiday 100, search interest in mixed reality headsets reached a five-year high in June. There are dozens of headsets to choose from on online shopping platforms, ranging from Rs 1,299 for JioDive smartphone-based VR headset to Rs 37,999 for the top-end Oculus Quest 2 headsets. While the former needs a smartphone to be attached in order to be operated, the latter is a complete VR headset on its own and comes with handheld controllers. 

Google Pixel FoldGoogle Holiday 100: Not Sure What To Gift This Festive Season? Google Search Is Here To Help

It comes with a triple rear camera setup, marked by a 48-megapixel primary snapper, and an 8-megapixel selfie camera.
