Will I be able to take it in my hand luggage still sealed in box and gift wrapped? Or will security want to open it and spoil the surprise?
Thinking I already know the answer to this but .....
You should be able to do so, given what is inside the box is consistent with a mobile phone/charger.
(and I have done this before myself.)
