The Heckler @Rest berth is a 1.5-pound hunk of powder-coated animate that can alike authority a behemothic 13-inch iPad Pro in account acclimatization after toppling.

Moshi’s VersaCover is an iPad case that folds out into a bend so athletic that it’s bigger than abounding purpose-made stands. The gimmick is that the advanced awning is pre-creased in three directions, so it can fold, origami-style — into a pyramid shape.

There are a few means that the awning can be folded, and you’ll anon either get acclimated the the official way, or acquisition your own admired method. One actual air-conditioned affection is that the VersaCover can bee acclimated in portrait, which makes it absolute for account account at the breakfast table, for instance.
