Product Information

When shopping for an iPad stand, it's important to keep in mind what size screen it has. Fortunately, most stands are adjustable, so they can accommodate small tablets like the iPad mini as well as big-screened ones like the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. However, some stands are incapable of holding certain tablets, depending on how big or small they are. Form Factor It comes in at 5.75 x 9.625 x 1.75 inches and weighs 1 lb 10 oz. There are a couple of hinges to adjust the stand to your liking, and it folds nearly flat for optimal storage. It’s a simple, well-made product and I would be hard pressed to find something wrong with it (I kept the directions just in case, unlike last time). There is a space in the arm you can use to hold your power cable. We've been comparing hundreds of iPad stands over the past few years to find the sturdiest, most attractive-looking, most convenient options for your go-to Apple slate. Here's what you need to think about when shopping for one of your own or to gift an iPad user you care about. What to Consider

Satechi’s Aluminum Desktop Stand can hold a smartphone or tablet ranging from 4-inches to 13-inches. Basically, it’ll work great with any iPhone or iPad, even Android devices. It’s a bit big for an iPhone, however, that isn’t an issue. The product itself weighs one pound, 10 ounces. The stand offers adjustability at a variety of levels, making it convenient to use. I really enjoyed using this stand in addition with my 24-inch M1 iMac. Adjustable to your liking As someone who uses their iPad frequently it was great to get a proper stand, as opposed to the cardboard box I was using. This stand is great to look at and really feels like a premium product. It’s made out of space gray aluminum with rubber on the bottom and the front part so it won’t slide around on your desk. We like that the stand will not only adjust its height and viewing angles but also allow you to rotate it 360 degrees. The last-mentioned functionality is incredibly helpful for sharing onscreen content at school and work. The Satechi Aluminum Stand and Hub for iPad Pro/Air is a simple idea, blend a convenient USB-C hub with an iPad stand in a portable and durable design. Review: Satechi Aluminum Stand and Hub for iPad Pro and Air Specs A couple of constructive ideas would be for Satechi to include a USB-C data port (power delivery only here) as well as upping the USB-A and SD slot speeds. Wrap-up

An iPad stand allows you to elevate your favorite tablet and bring a whole new world of interactions that range from hands-viewing to using it with an external keyboard and mouse, all the way to using it as an Apple Pencil canvas or notepad. Still, these accessories are frequently overlooked, even though there are thousands to choose from.

The hinges are firm and take a bit of force to adjust, helping to ensure that your iPad isn’t going anywhere while you’re using it. Because of the open nature of the mount you can place your iPad in portrait and landscape mode. The design is compact and convenient so it’s easy to take with you on the go. The aluminum build provides the quality that Satechi has become known for and I like that it doubles as an iPad Pro/Air as well as a MacBook hub.

Aluminum Stand & Hub for iPad Pro

As the product description says, it “easily creates the perfect desktop setup wherever you are, whether it’s taking a FaceTime group call or sketching out your latest idea on your iPad.” It also comes with a one year manufacturer warranty. There are two hinges so two things can be adjusted: The arm and the mount where you can put an iPad or iPhone. Two different folding configurations come to mind: Upright for desktop mode and flat for drawing mode.
