We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again, it pays to be unique with your Valentine’s Day gifts. If your loved one tends to geek out over the latest technology, it might be a good idea to stick with that theme and find them some impressive gadgets they won’t be able to keep their hands off of. For the highest quality smartphone, smartwatch, tablets and headphones, you don’t want to miss what your local Verizon Victra store has to offer. They are never short on incredible devices like the red iPhone 14 that will simply melt your loved one’s heart and also make them think of you every time they pick it up.
