From PlayStation to SONOS, The Best Electronics for Back to School are Here

This article is part 13 of 12 in the series: Australia

Whether you’re dealing with the spinning wheel of death, corded earphones, or analogue books – make 2022 the year of the back to school glow up with our list of the best electronics. And don’t sweat it – if you’re still repping that #homeschool life we have you covered, too.

Airpods Max

Apple AirPods Max Headphones Space Gray

Apple introduced the Space Gray AirPods Max as an over-ear alternative to their popular AirPods wireless earbuds. The Space Gray AirPods Max are wireless like Apple’s AirPods and have noise cancellation like the AirPods Pro. You can use your Space Gray AirPods Max for up to 20 hours before they need another charge and those wearing the Space Gray AirPods Max can easily access Siri using their voice. 

Do you know how many tracks you could listen to in 20 hours? I don’t, but I know it’s a lot. That’s good to know, because if you have one of those days where your tram gets stuck in traffic or no one shows up to class, the Space Gray AirPods Max are your perfect escape partner. 

Apple Pencil

Apple Apple Pencil 2nd Generation (MU8F2AM/A)

The Apple Pencil 2nd Generation features improvements from the original Apple Pencil, perfect for artists, students, and other creatives. The Apple Pencil 2nd Generation features low latency and pixel-perfect precision, and allows users to change settings without setting the pencil down with double-tapping on the pencil.

I know what you’re thinking, ‘cool, but it’s just a pencil’ – and you might say that now. But cop it, use it, love it, and thank me later for the rec. The Apple Pencil 2nd Generation has a length of 6.54 inches (166 mm) and diameter of 0.35 inches (8.9 mm), and weighs 0.73 ounces (20.7 grams).

 

FaZe Clan x Takashi Murakami Mousepad Black

If you’re someone who takes pride in their desk set up, you need this. It’s a great way to not only cleanse a messy desk, but it looks smooth and gives you a constant visual reminder of the genius that is Takashi Murakami. This FaZe Clan x Takashi Murakami Mousepad in black measures 35.43 inches x 15.75 inches and includes Murakami’s famous flower and skull motifs printed across the entire face of the mousepad, with a colourful Murakami flower in the lower left hand corner, and a FaZe Clan logo in the lower right hand corner. The FaZe Clan x Takashi Murakami mousepad comes packaged in a matching black collector’s box.

SONOS

Sonos Move Smart Portable Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Speaker w/ Alexa and Google Assistant MOVE1US1BLK Black

Portable speakers give you the ability to change any environment you’re in from dull to poppin’, but you don’t want to get stuck with sub-par sound. Sonos are OG’s when it comes to audio products, and the Sonos Move Smart Portable Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Speaker w/ Alexa and Google Assistant is the perfect compliment to any study session, group hang, or anything else that pops up in your day. 

With voice control, WiFi, Bluetooth, a convenient handle, and a weather resistant design, it really is down for whatever. All that’s left for you to do is level up your playlists.
