由于全球大流行,似乎很多人都可以在家工作。(working from home)您可能会受益于对您的工作空间进行一些投资,以使生活更轻松、更舒适。有几个小工具可以把蓝色的星期一(Mondays)变成,嗯,不完全是一个聚会(party),但比其他事情要少得多。这是您可以购买的最好的在家工作的小工具。
我们还在YouTube频道上制作了一个短视频,如果您在家工作,我们会提供一些简单的提示,因此请务必查看:
家庭椅的最佳作品
尽管不是严格意义上的“小工具”,但您的办公椅是您在家工作中最重要的组成部分之一。它对您的耐力、舒适度和健康有直接影响。那里有数量惊人的选择,但这些是我们在每个主要预算级别推荐的三个。
这把椅子的价格如此之低,这可能是一个问题。然而,拥有超过 12,000 条评论和平均 4 星评级,这是我们见过的最好的交易之一。据Hbada 称(Hbada),这款时尚的椅子也经过了一些彻底的质量测试。
除了看起来时尚之外,这把椅子的另一个整洁的特点是它的翻转扶手。这使椅子可以轻松地滑到矮桌下,节省空间。一个非常可靠的选择!
最佳中档椅子:(Best Mid-range Chair: )Nouhaus Ergo3D
Ergo3D可能(Ergo3D)是大多数人愿意在办公椅上花费的上限。但是,通过稍微增加预算,您可以显着提高工作效率。
Ergo3D提供了我们期望在更昂贵的产品中看到的符合人体工程学的功能,具有高度的可调节性,以尽可能适合您的身体和姿势。这是人体工程学功能和价格之间的一个很好的折衷方案。
虽然这把高背椅的价格可能令人瞠目结舌,但您必须权衡它与无痛脊椎和肌肉的价值,因为您不会觉得您已经与专业拳击手进行了几轮比赛。
这把 Ergohuman(Ergohuman)椅子有网状靠背,可以保持凉爽和干燥。这些材料几乎都是可回收的,以防您担心椅子对环境的影响。
然而,最令人印象深刻的技巧是同步倾斜系统。它确保所有支撑组件都处于正确的角度,以保持您的姿势正确,无论您是坐直还是让椅子向后倾斜。因此,您可以在放松身心的同时照顾好自己的身体。这是双赢的!
家用耳机(Home Headsets)和麦克风的最佳作品
将自己与家中周围的噪音隔离开来对于高效的工作日至关重要。您还需要在视频会议中清楚地听到您的声音。我们认为这是家庭用户工作的两个最佳耳机和麦克风选项。
最佳预算降噪耳机:(Best Budget Noise-Cancelling Headset: )索尼 WH-CH710N(Sony WH-CH710N)(Sony WH-CH710N)
索尼的降噪技术(noise cancellation technology)被广泛认为是业内最好的技术之一。像WH-1000XM4这样的耳机受到主要评论出版物的强烈推荐。然而,超过 300 美元的价格对于一般办公室使用来说可能是难以下咽的药丸。
这就是更合理的WHCH710N的用武之地。虽然它的名称同样难以理解,但价格却低得多。主要牺牲的是音乐或电影的音频性能,但这些便宜的手机听起来仍然很棒。您可以获得智能环境自适应降噪功能、35 小时电池续航时间和用于通话的内置麦克风。我们认为这是同类产品中最好的交易。
Samson Go是我们多年来一直使用和喜爱的麦克风。这是对任何耳机或设备中麦克风的大规模升级。它提供电容式麦克风质量,同时非常紧凑。它有一个集成支架,但您也可以将其安装在麦克风支架上或夹在笔记本电脑屏幕上。
最重要的是,它有一个耳机插孔,因此您可以将它与您选择的任何有线耳机一起使用。它的价格具有竞争力,是您可以对视频会议音频设备设置进行的最具影响力的升级之一。
家庭网络摄像头的最佳作品
大多数笔记本电脑、智能手机和平板电脑都内置了摄像头,但就质量而言,这些通常是事后才想到的。对于许多配备微不足道的 720p 网络摄像头 的Apple MacBook电脑来说尤其如此!
现在有更多的视频会议正在进行,所以现在是时候将您的相机升级到更高分辨率和更好的光学设备了。虽然有很多公司生产独立的网络摄像头,但在我们看来,罗技(Logitech)已经把这一切都缝好了。
C922x Pro 深受(C922x Pro)全球游戏主播的喜爱,几乎没有什么负面影响。您可以以低于 100 美元的价格购买它,并获得一个完整的 1080p 网络摄像头,该摄像头具有出色的内置立体声麦克风和快速的自动对焦功能。
它具有自动光线校正功能,经过专门设计,即使在光线不足的情况下也能让图像看起来很棒。这无疑是最适合工作和娱乐的通用网络摄像头。
如果您认为 1080p 已经过去十年了,并且真的想用您出色的视频质量让您的同事大吃一惊,请考虑将预算翻倍并购买 Logitech BRIO(Logitech BRIO)。
这是一款4K网络摄像头,具有更好的镜头以及与C922x Pro类似的自动对焦和照明补偿技术。由于BRIO专为视频会议而设计,因此它具有多项简洁的功能,使视频会议更加舒适。
例如,您可以进行数字缩放和平移,同时还可以选择三种不同的视野。该摄像头还通过了Skype for Business认证,符合企业标准。
家庭显示器的最佳作品
除了您的椅子,您的显示器是您花费最多时间的组件。如果您使用的是过时的模型,它的丑陋刺伤了您的眼睛,那么这两种选择中的任何一种都可以抚慰您的眼球,并使您不太可能因过度劳累而失明。
多年来,我们使用了各种戴尔 Ultrasharp显示器,您会在全球众多大型企业中找到这些屏幕是有原因的。(Dell Ultrasharp)它的画质非常棒,显示器具有出色的工厂校准功能,可让您立即进行对色彩敏感的工作。
然而,最好的功能可能是支架。您可以旋转显示器以在纵向模式下使用它、倾斜它、旋转它并关键地调整它的高度。这些是您几乎从未在消费级屏幕中获得的功能,并将其变成工作和一般生产力的杀手级工具。
我们最后一次在家推荐的是三星的这款大型(Samsung)CH890商务级显示器。借助大型 34 英寸超宽(ultrawide)曲面面板,您将通过一个无缝图像和简单的电缆管理舒适地进行多任务处理。
虽然乍一看它可能看起来像以游戏为中心的屏幕,但三星(Samsung)具有旨在使工作更轻松的内置功能,尽管没有什么能阻止您在一边享受游戏休息!
原生分屏和画中画功能提供了许多不同的生产力选项,并且支持USB-C显示输入,让您轻松找到适合屏幕的位置。该支架还具有高度、倾斜和旋转能力,使其在同类游戏显示器中脱颖而出。它比大多数显示器贵一点,但你永远不想回到旧的方式。
这就是您在家工作的总结,但我们很想听听您对小工具和配件的建议,以帮助您在离开办公室时完成更多工作。
The Best Work from Home Gadgets and Accessories (2021)
Thanks to a global рandemic, it seems that working from home is here to stay for a lot of people. You may benefit from investing in your workspace a little to make life easier and more comfortable. There are several gadgets that can turn blue Mondays into, well, not a party exactly but much less exhausting than things might otherwise be. Here are the best work-from-home gadgets you can buy.
We also made a short video on our YouTube channel where we give some simple tips if you’re working from home, so be sure to check it out:
The Best Work from Home Chairs
Despite not strictly being a “gadget”, your office chair is one of the most important components of your work from home setup. It’s got a direct effect on your stamina, comfort and health. There’s a staggering number of choices out there, but these are the three we’d recommend at every major budget tier.
This chair has a price so low, it might be a point of concern. Yet with over 12,000 reviews and an average 4-star rating, it’s one of the best deals we’ve seen. According to Hbada, this stylish chair has been through some thorough quality testing as well.
Apart from looking stylish, the other neat feature of this chair is its flip-up armrests. That allows the chair to be easily slid under low desks, saving you space. A very solid choice for the money!
The Ergo3D is probably at the upper limit of what most people would feel comfortable spending on an office chair. However, by stepping up your budget a little you could improve your productivity significantly.
The Ergo3D offers ergonomic features we’d expect to see in more expensive products, with high levels of adjustability to fit your body and posture as well as possible. It’s a great compromise between ergonomic features and price.
While the price of this high-back chair may be eye-popping, you have to weigh it up against the value of a pain-free spine and muscles that don’t feel like you’ve gone a few rounds with a professional boxer.
This Ergohuman chair has a mesh back, to keep things cool and dry. The materials are almost all recycled, in case you’re worried about your chair’s environmental impact.
The most impressive trick is, however, the synchro-tilt system. It makes sure that all of the supporting components are at the right angle to keep your posture right whether you’re sitting upright or have the chair tilted back. So you can relax and take care of your body at the same time. It’s a win-win!
The Best Work from Home Headsets and Mics
Isolating yourself from the noise around you at home is essential for a productive workday. You also need to be heard clearly in video conferencing meetings. We think these are two of the best headset and mic options for the work from home user.
Best Budget Noise-Cancelling Headset: Sony WH-CH710N
Sony’s noise cancellation technology is widely regarded as one of the best in the industry. Headsets like the WH-1000XM4 come highly recommended from major review publications. However, at over $300 it can be a hard pill to swallow for general office use.
That’s where the much more reasonable WHCH710N comes in. While it has an equally incomprehensible name, it has a much lower price tag. The main sacrifice is audio performance for music or movies, but these cheaper phones still sound great by all accounts. You get smart environmentally adaptive noise cancellation, 35 hours of battery life and a built-in microphone for calls. We think it’s the best deal in its class.
The Samson Go is a mic we’ve used and loved for many years. It’s a massive upgrade over the microphone in any headset or device. It offers condenser microphone quality while being incredibly compact. It has an integrated stand, but you can also mount it on a mic stand or clip it to your laptop screen.
Best of all, it has a headphone jack, so you can use it with any wired headphones of your choice. It’s competitively priced and is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make to your video conferencing audio equipment setup.
The Best Work from Home Webcams
Most laptops, smartphones, and tablets have cameras built into them, but in terms of quality, these are usually an afterthought. This is especially true for the many Apple MacBook computers out there with paltry 720p webcams!
These days there’s a lot more video conferencing going on, so it’s the right time to upgrade your camera to something with a higher resolution and better optics. While there are plenty of companies making standalone webcams, Logitech has it all sewn up in our view.
Beloved by gaming streamers all over the world, there’s little negative we can say about the C922x Pro. You can buy it for under $100 and get a full 1080p webcam with excellent built-in stereo microphones and snappy autofocus.
It has automatic light correction and is specially designed to make the image look great even in low-light situations. This is doubtlessly the best general webcam for both work and play.
If you think that 1080p is a little last-decade and really want to blow away your coworkers with your fabulous video quality, consider doubling the budget and getting the Logitech BRIO.
It’s a 4K webcam with a better lens and similar automatic focus and lighting compensation technology to the C922x Pro. Since the BRIO is designed for video conferencing specifically, it has several neat functions that make video meetings more comfortable.
For example, you can digitally zoom and pan, while also having three different fields of view to choose from. The camera is also certified for Skype for Business and is meant to comply with enterprise standards.
The Best Work from Home Monitors
Apart from your chair, your monitor is the component you spend the most time with. If you’re using an outdated model that stabs your eyes with its ugliness, then either of these two options will soothe your eyeballs and make you much less likely to go blind from overwork.
We’ve used various Dell Ultrasharp monitors over the years and there’s a reason you’ll find these screens in so many large businesses all over the world. Its picture quality is fantastic and the monitor has great factory calibration to get you going with color-sensitive work right off the bat.
The best feature, however, is perhaps the stand. You can rotate the monitor to use it in portrait mode, tilt it, swivel it and crucially adjust its height. These are features you almost never get in consumer-grade screens and turn it into a killer tool for work and general productivity.
Our final work from home recommendation is this massive CH890 business class monitor from Samsung. With a large, 34” ultrawide curved panel, you’ll be multitasking in comfort with one seamless image and easy cable management.
While it may look like similar gaming-focused screens at first glance, Samsung has built-in features aimed at making work easier, although nothing stops you from enjoying a gaming break on the side!
Native split-screen and picture-in-picture functionality offer many different productivity options and support for USB-C display input makes it easy to find the right spot for your screen. The stand is also height, tilt and swivel capable, setting it apart from gaming monitors in this class. It’s a little more expensive than most monitors, but you’ll never want to go back to the old ways.
That’s it for your work-from-home roundup, but we’d love to hear your own suggestions for gadgets and accessories that help you get more done while away from the office.
