Popular Christmas presents still available to buy online

Not everyone wants the new PlayStation 5 console for Christmas, but clearly a lot of people do, as it has completely sold out in most countries it’s launched in. Taking a look at a few million searches over the past couple of weeks, PriceRunner found the most popular Christmas presents that Brits want this year and where you can still buy them online in time for Christmas.

Coming in at an unsurprising first place, the sold-out Sony PlayStation 5 is on the top of the lists this year, beating the Microsoft Xbox Series X which also launched in November this year in the UK. It is now sold out at most retailers both online and in shops, but let’s hope their makers decide to release more stock soon so we can get our hands on one...

Claiming the title as the second most popular gift, Apple’s iPad 10.2” is also a best-seller this year, still available to buy at Laptops Direct and have delivered before Christmas if you order it before the 21^st of December.
