iPad is a portable device, and it is specifically designed to be used on the go, there are conditions when we need to mount it for many reasons, such as for hands-free experience, using it in the kitchen, over the desk, in a class, on a superstore cash-counter or we need to attach a keyboard, etc.

But how can we do this? The answer is pretty simple, with the help of an iPad stand. An iPad stand gives you a lot of benefits other than ease of access, such as preventing neck and shoulder pain, relaxing your eyes by providing multiple viewing angles, and making typing easier.

Till now, we have understood the importance of the iPad stand, but the question is, which one is the best magnetic stand you can get? And what are some key factors on which we can choose a suitable stand for our device?  

Following are some of the factors which can help you make your decision.

• Portability
• Weight
• Budget
• Adjustability
• Aesthetics
• Compatibility
• Design

We have rounded up some of the best magnetic stands compatible with various iPads, from regular iPad to iPad mini and from iPad Air to iPad Pro.   

So, what are we waiting for? Let’s have a look.

PITAKA is a reasonably priced option that provides a sturdy grip on your iPad. It has compatibility with iPad Pro 11”, 12.9”, iPad Air, iPad, etc. It will work with any tablet/iPad because you will have a magnet in the package that you can attach to any device and later on to the PITAKA Magnetic stand. It will give you a laptop sort of experience in reading, writing and working. 

The good thing about this case is that it simultaneously provides ease of use and protection. With this stand, you can adjust the iPad to your desired angle and do not need to put stress on your hands, shoulders, and neck.

SwitchEasy iPad Pro magnetic stand is the perfect companion whether you are working in your office, living room, kitchen, or library. Wherever you are, its elevated design helps you prevent sore neck.

Aluminum alloy material gives it sturdiness so that it can grip iPad 11″ (1-3 Gen) to Apple iPad Air 10.9″ & iPad Pro 12.9″ (3-5 Gen). If this stand is part of your iPad accessory, you do not need to adjust it for a convenient view; instead, you can tilt the screen to 180 degrees and rotate it to 360 degrees for the best viewing angles.

The only flaw observed in this stand is that its magnetic grips become loose if you use it with a thick iPad case. All in all, if you are in search of a magnetic stand that looks stylish, classy, and even matches your iPad, then go for it.

Pros

• Multiple viewing angles
• 360-degree rotation 
• 18-degree tilt
• Sturdy

Cons

• The magnetic grip is not strong with thick iPad Cases

Meaowxva Floating Magnetic iPad Stand is one of my favorites on the list due to several reasons: it’s great for your desk, where you can play a video on your iPad while working on other devices, or just put to-do list, calendar, Spotify, etc.

But these aren’t the reasons why I liked it, you can do the same with PITAKA and SwitchEasy stand, but this stand has a unique feature that you can adjust it in a way so you can take notes and draw on your iPad comfortably when I used PITAKA stand, I always detached it from my stand to take notes, with this stand I can do both. I think that’s what makes it unique and why it has so many sales.

It works great for everything: video watching, zoom/skype calls, cooking, drawing, note-taking, photo editing, etc.

Pros

• Portable & foldable
• 360-degree rotation
• Angle adjustments

Cons

• One color
• Expensive
• A bit wiggly when the iPad has a case
