7 smart accessories to jazz up your tablet
The iPad Pro 12.9 and iPad
Pro 9.7 are a pair of powerful, versatile tablets, made even more so by Apple's
Smart Connector, which gives you one more way to hook up accessories. But the
world of iPad Pro accessories extends far beyond Apple's official selection.
Whether you want to work, play or create on your iPad Pro there's an accessory
for you, and these are some of the best.
A feature-packed keyboard case
Integrating an ergonomic
keyboard within the confines of a slim 9.7-inch iPad Pro case is no easy feat,
but Incipio's ClamCase+ backlit keyboard case has done a stellar job marrying
the two, and it has even thrown in LED backlighting for good measure. A smart
hinge attaching the keyboard to the tablet can be adjusted 360 degrees. With
Bluetooth pairing, syncing the two is also quick and easy.
Keeps your iPad going
The on-the-go convenience
of having an extra full charge for your iPad Pro can't be understated, and the
Techlink Recharge 12000 bat tery bank offers exactly that. It's got dual USB
ports, so you can easily charge your iPhone at the same time as your iPad, and
it automatically stops powering your devices as soon as they're at full ca
pacity, so it won't waste any of its 12,000mAh of power.
Another use for your Smart Connector
The Smart Connector is a
good idea, but for the most part it's only used for keyboards. Logitech decided
to improve on that with its Base charging stand, which uses the Smart Connector
to power up your iPad Pro. Magnets in the charging cradle ensure your slate is
aligned, making it easier to use than if you had to plug the tablet in.
Get a new perspective
Most iPad stands offer a
limited range of positions, which can make it difficult to get an ideal view of
what's on the screen. The Spider Monkey from Octa solves those problems, thanks
to the unlimited degrees of freedom offered by its flexible steel frame.The
adaptive neck can be wrapped and curled around everything from bed knobs to
lamp stands, or it can be used easily on its own as a stabilising mount.
A bag that's almost as high-end as your tablet
The Pad & Quill Valet
leather bag isn't cheap, but it is made with attention to details, using full
grain leather and parachute-grade stitching throughout. There are pockets
inside the sleeve holder bag for an iPad Pro (up to 12.9 inch), lightning
cable, charger, two neat penstylus holders, and even space for a notepad and a
wireless Apple Smart Keyboard.
An artistic alternative to the Apple Pencil
The Apple Pencil is great
for writing and sketching, but for the artistically-inclined among you there's
the Sensu Artist Brush and Stylus. As the name suggests, it has a brush, making
it ideal for digital artists. There's a stylus too if you want to sketch, and
in a pinch, you can even write with it, although not with as much precision as
the Apple Pencil.
A stylish case with useful features
If you want a little
protection for your tablet, the STM Atlas case will get the job done. A slim
design keeps it looking classy, and ensures it doesn't bulk up whatever bag you
chuck your iPad into. It also folds out into a stand, and .there's a slot for
the expensive but easily lost Apple Pencil
