The first thing I noticed about the MagFlött once assembled was its heft. The whole thing feels very solid and there was no chance of it tipping over when tapping the display of my 12.9-inch iPad Pro. Multi-Angle Adjustability: 360°swivel rotation floating design offers portrait and landscape viewing. Adjustable, Sturdy hinge can be easily tilted for multiple viewing angles to meet your needs. Compatibility: All iPads from 2017, excluding iPad mini (although some iPads require the Magfit magnetic case – see Option 4, below) Strong built-in magnet , the Magnetic Stand uses these magnets to attach the iPad and display it like a small floating monitor.When attached, the whole thing looks a lot like the iMac.

It’s ideal for mobile workers looking to prop up an iPad in a coffee shop, and designers will love its arty credentials. I opted for the iPad mini version, which fits the iPad mini 6 perfectly. Indeed, if that’s your iPad of choice, the Infinity is the only magnetic stand on this list to cater for Apple’s tiniest tablet. And trust me, if you think the iPad mini is too small to justify a stand, think again; I’ve loved having the ability to perch mine so elegantly and safely next to my iMac while working away in the kitchen. The ESR Shift Series is a rare type of iPad case that also doubles as an incredibly versatile viewing stand — in both landscape and portrait mode. The multi-functional accessory consists of a snap-on protective shell and a magnetic dual folio cover. The latter can hold the iPad in a multitude of easily adjustable viewing angles, ensuring you can find a perfect setup for any scenario.So, now that I’ve hopefully given you some food for thought when it comes to use cases for iPad stands, let’s look at four great options. Option 1: CharJenPro MagFlött The Infinity stand is the cheapest option on this list, but that doesn’t mean you’ll have to sacrifice build quality if you opt for it. Just like every Benks product I’ve tested, the Infinity is built like a tank. The hinge is stiff (possibly a little too stiff) and the magnets confidently take a hold of your iPad.

I feel it my duty to do so. I’m in a privileged (read: ‘expensive’) position to have access to nearly every iPad Apple makes, and it seems only fair that I find a use case for each one.However, don’t despair, because Magfit has thought of you, too. Enter the ‘Liquid Silicone’ case, which is designed to both protect your iPad and give it the magnets required for stand compatibility (note – the case isn’t in the image below). The iPad clamps firmly onto the stand magnetically, rather than sitting on a ledge as with most stands. This means you need to choose the correct model stand that is compatible with iPad Air 4/5, 11-inch iPad Pro (2018/2020/2021/2022), and 12.9-inch iPad Pro (2018/2020/2021/2022). if you upgrade to a different iPad, then it’s possible that the stand won’t be compatible, but it works very well with the iPad models mentioned here. An iPad stand will help your posture and viewing comfort, or make typing or using a stylus much easier. As a case, the Snap Float Folio doesn’t offer a lot of protection, but Moft also sells the Snap Case, which is a plastic tray that covers the edges of the iPad, plus there’s a slot in which to keep your Apple Pencil or another stylus.

Clearly, this product means a lot to CharJenPro, and their enthusiasm for it reveals how transformative this type of iPad accessory can be for users.

Some are basic, some are stylish or super-bendy, one comes with an array of handy ports, and one looks like a cuddly toy. This iPad stand looks similar to many others but has the useful benefit of being able to rotate 360°, which makes it ideal for sharing with groups, either at home for family video calls or in-office meetings. If you use your iPad in the kitchen for recipes, you can rotate it as you move around.

It's taller than most iPad stands on the market, making it great for using it alongside a Mac for Sidecar, for cooking along to a recipe in the kitchen, or for using as a glanceable HomeKit display hub.MagFlött Stand will last as long as your iPad. Crafted with the utmost consideration in terms of design and longevity. Solid Aluminum, soft touch microfiber, and ease of use. This all-metal stand by UGREEN is a must-have for those who frequently use an Apple Pencil in a plethora of scenarios — from taking notes during a meeting to making edits to photos and videos, all the way to working on elaborate graphic design and illustration projects. Its hefty metal base and wide iPad holding surface with silicone padding to keep it in place will always keep it in place. Such stability is crucial for getting the most precise inputs out of Apple's iconic stylus. On the other hand, the iPad holder's cutouts will help the device stay cool during demanding tasks like editing high-resolution video, among others. Though the MagFlött is taller than most iPad stands, it's still not so tall as to be ergonomic. If you use it alone with a keyboard and mouse connected to your iPad at a desk, you will still be looking down at it, which is not great for posture. In my experience, iPads have to fight hard to play a role in whatever it is you’re doing. And Apple knows this, which is why they keep integrating the iPad more wholesomely into the ecosystem.
