The Best Tech for Back to School
The Best Tech for Back to School
返校季最佳科技装备指南
As summer melts away like a fruity Popsicle left on a poolside deck chair, our thoughts turn to the coming school year. Whether they’re prepping for middle school, high school, or college, all students heading back to class will need the right gear. The WIRED Reviews team has spent years extensively testing consumer tech for students—giving it to our own youngsters to abuse, or putting it through the paces ourselves—and we’ve compiled this list of items we consider truly essential. Not all of these products are guaranteed to help you learn better, but they’ll make note-taking, homework, arriving on time, and self-care much easier.
随着夏天像池畔躺椅上融化的水果冰棒一样消逝，我们的思绪也转向了即将到来的新学年。无论是准备上初中、高中还是大学，所有重返校园的学生都需要合适的装备。WIRED 评测团队多年来一直在对学生消费电子产品进行广泛测试——无论是让我们自己的孩子去“折磨”它们，还是我们亲自进行高强度使用——我们整理了这份被认为真正必不可少的清单。虽然这些产品不能保证让你学习成绩突飞猛进，但它们会让记笔记、写作业、准时上课以及自我护理变得轻松许多。

The Best Laptop for Students
学生最佳笔记本电脑
The MacBook Air was once the go-to laptop for college, but over time, the price has gone up as Apple aims for a more high-end market. Now we have the MacBook Neo as the entry-level option. And even with the recent $100 price increase, it remains the best overall college laptop to buy. The design feels every bit as premium as a MacBook Air, with the added fun of different color selections. The standout feature, however, is definitely the high-resolution display, which is brighter and sharper than any other laptop you can get for less than $1,000. The trade-off is in performance, especially the limit of 8 GB of RAM, but that should be enough for most students. Bonus tip: You’ll get $100 off if you buy using your college email address through Apple’s website.
MacBook Air 曾经是大学生的首选笔记本电脑，但随着苹果公司瞄准更高端的市场，其价格也水涨船高。现在，MacBook Neo 成为了入门级选择。即使最近涨价了 100 美元，它依然是目前最值得购买的综合最佳大学笔记本电脑。它的设计质感与 MacBook Air 毫无二致，且增加了多种配色选择，更具趣味性。然而，最突出的特点绝对是其高分辨率显示屏，它比任何 1,000 美元以下的笔记本电脑都要更亮、更清晰。性能上的妥协主要在于 8GB 内存的限制，但这对于大多数学生来说已经足够了。额外提示：如果你通过苹果官网使用大学邮箱购买，还可以享受 100 美元的优惠。
The Best Windows Laptop for Students
学生最佳 Windows 笔记本电脑
If you want a light laptop for class that won’t break your back lugging it across campus, the Zenbook A14 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is for you. At just 2.18 pounds, it’s one of the lightest laptops around, over half a pound lighter than the MacBook Air. That doesn’t mean it feels flimsy, as Asus has used its patented Ceraluminum material to build a machine that’s extremely lightweight yet sturdy. You’ll be astounded by just how light this laptop feels. It’s reasonably priced too—especially considering the specs, OLED display, and great battery life. There’s a next-gen model that comes with the more powerful Snapdragon X2 chips, but it’s much more expensive.
如果你想要一台轻便的笔记本电脑带去上课，又不想在校园里背得腰酸背痛，那么 Zenbook A14（评分 8/10，WIRED 推荐）就是你的不二之选。它仅重 2.18 磅（约 0.99 公斤），是目前最轻的笔记本电脑之一，比 MacBook Air 轻了半磅多。但这并不意味着它质感廉价，华硕使用了其专利的 Ceraluminum（陶瓷铝）材料，打造出了一台既轻盈又坚固的机器。你会对这台电脑的轻盈程度感到震惊。它的定价也很合理——考虑到其规格、OLED 显示屏和出色的电池续航能力。虽然还有搭载更强劲 Snapdragon X2 芯片的下一代机型，但价格要贵得多。
The Best Portable Monitor
最佳便携显示器
Most college students probably don’t have room in their dorms for a full-size monitor—nor would one help you when you’re studying at a coffee shop or the library. That’s where a portable monitor comes into play. It gives you access to a second screen on the go, which can be really useful depending on your area of study. There are tons of different portable monitors out there to choose from, but this is a large 16.1-inch screen with a sharp 2560 x 1440 resolution. It even comes with a 180Hz refresh rate, making it a solid gaming screen when needed. Of all the portable monitors we’ve tested, the Arzopa Z3FC is the best to take to college with you.
大多数大学生可能在宿舍里没有空间放置全尺寸显示器，而且当你去咖啡馆或图书馆学习时，大显示器也帮不上忙。这时，便携显示器就派上用场了。它能让你随时随地拥有第二块屏幕，根据你的专业领域，这会非常有用。市面上有各种各样的便携显示器可供选择，但这款拥有 16.1 英寸大屏幕，分辨率高达 2560 x 1440。它甚至具备 180Hz 的刷新率，在需要时也是一块出色的游戏屏幕。在我们测试过的所有便携显示器中，Arzopa Z3FC 是最适合带去大学使用的。
Noise-Canceling Headphones for Studying
学习用降噪耳机
Sony’s flagship headphones have been on the top of our list since they launched (9/10, WIRED Recommends). The WH-1000XM6 have seven times the processing power of Sony’s previous XM5 model (9/10, WIRED Recommends), which allows for the best noise reduction on earth. Couple that with 30 hours of battery life, multipoint Bluetooth pairing, and a brand-new set of dynamic drivers with bold and joyous tuning, and these are the best wireless headphones we’ve ever tested. The latest model features a new, smaller case and folding ear cups, which make them even better for dropping into your school bag, and the replaceable faux leather ear pads are very comfortable, thanks to a liberal use of memory foam.
索尼的旗舰耳机自发布以来一直位居我们的榜首（评分 9/10，WIRED 推荐）。WH-1000XM6 的处理能力是索尼上一代 XM5 机型（评分 9/10，WIRED 推荐）的七倍，这使其能够实现全球顶尖的降噪效果。再加上 30 小时的电池续航、多点蓝牙连接，以及一套音质大胆且悦耳的全新动态驱动单元，这是我们测试过的最好的无线耳机。最新款采用了更小巧的收纳盒和可折叠耳罩，更方便放入书包。得益于记忆海绵的充足填充，可更换的人造革耳垫佩戴起来非常舒适。
Cheap Earbuds for Walks Across Campus
校园漫步的平价耳机
This is our favorite pair of cheap earbuds. Former WIRED reviewer Ryan Waniata called it a “shockingly loaded pair for less than a takeout dinner for two.” He was really impressed not only by the clear sound but also the noise-canceling capabilities. In particular, he also noted the earbuds’ ability to cut out even the deepest rumbles and highest-pitched noises. The Go Pop ANC even has an effective transparency mode if you don’t want the fully isolated effect. Pair that with eight hours of battery life, and you have an absolutely killer pair of wireless earbuds for only $25.
这是我们最喜欢的平价耳机。前 WIRED 评测员 Ryan Waniata 称其为“一套价格不到两人份外卖，却功能惊人的耳机”。他不仅对清晰的音质印象深刻，还对它的降噪能力赞不绝口。他特别指出，这款耳机甚至能隔绝最深沉的轰鸣声和最高频的噪音。如果你不想完全与外界隔绝，Go Pop ANC 还具备有效的通透模式。再加上 8 小时的续航，仅需 25 美元，你就能拥有一款绝对超值的无线耳机。
The Best Water Bottle
最佳水杯
If reusable water bottles bring out your inner germaphobe—nobody wants to miss class because they’re stuck in bed with the yucks—then get the Larq. It uses a nontoxic UV-C LED light in the lid to sterilize your water every two hours (or when prompted), which reduces funky odors and bacterial buildup. It’s double-insulated and made from BPA-free stainless steel, and a full charge is good for up to three weeks of tech-assisted sanitation. Plus, the app lets you track your water intake goals—though honestly, it didn’t inspire us to drink more water. The company also sells the PureVis 2 with a filter, but that model is a bit of a hassle. The filter tends to slip into the bottle when full, and it c…
如果可重复使用的水杯让你感到洁癖发作——毕竟没人想因为生病卧床而错过课程——那么就买 Larq 吧。它在瓶盖中使用无毒的 UV-C LED 灯，每两小时（或按需）对水进行消毒，从而减少异味和细菌滋生。它采用双层隔热设计，由不锈钢制成且不含 BPA，充满电后可支持长达三周的科技辅助消毒。此外，配套的应用程序还可以让你追踪饮水目标——尽管老实说，它并没有激励我们喝更多的水。该公司还销售带有过滤器的 PureVis 2，但那个型号有点麻烦。过滤器在水满时容易滑入瓶中，而且它……
