Best microscopes for students 2024

The best microscopes for students should be a blend of both affordability and high quality optics that are feature-rich enough for learners to achieve their education objectives without spending a huge amount of money.

This, plus the limited time to spend researching what models are decent and which ones to avoid means it's easy for those in education to purchase inferior models and waste time and money. That's why we've put together this guide to the best student microscopes.

There are two types of microscopes available: simple and compound microscopes. A simple microscope is equipped with one lens but a compound microscope has both an eyepiece and an objective lens. There are also different features to consider like the field of view, its frame, lighting, how good the optics are and the microscope's resolution.

Younger students who may still be in school could benefit from a more basic, cost efficient model, whereas those in higher education or studying for degrees might find a more sophisticated model more appropriate. But for much elementary-age observers, it might be worth checking out our guide to the best microscopes for kidsCurious minds can also check out our guides to the best chemistry sets and best binoculars for kids too.
