iPad stands vs. iPad mounts: which is better?

One of the great benefits of the iPad is its versatility. With an iPad stylus pen, you can use it like a writing pad for taking notes, a sketchpad for digital drawing or image editing. You can set up your iPad like a laptop with an iPad keyboard, and you can prop up an iPad to serve as a mini TV when you are traveling or even in the comfort of your home.

Given this wide range of iPad uses, there are also many styles of iPad mounts and stands. iPad stands with adjustable tilt and height can help you position your screen where you need it when working at a desk or workstation. A cushioned iPad stand can serve as a lap desk if you are sitting on a couch or in an armchair.

The terms “stand” and “mount” are often used interchangeably when it comes to tablet stands and mounts. Usually, the use of the word “mount” indicates a product that offers a more secure grip on your device, but this is not universally true.

Finding the right iPad holder for you

Many iPad stands and mounts are designed to accommodate many tablets, meaning they will fit not only multiple types of iPads but also tablets from other brands. However, you always want to double check before you make your purchase that you new iPad mount or stand will fit the exact dimensions of your device.

Beyond size compatibility, your choice should be based on the intended use. Imagine where you will be using your iPad and the activities you want to enjoy. In certain cases, such as using an iPad in a small business for tasks like clocking in, you may want an iPad wall mount.

If you are carrying your iPad around, you will need to protect it with an iPad case or cover, and traveling with your iPad is one of the biggest advantages of the tablet design. Having a device as mobile as an iPad can improve your work and personal convenience, especially since syncing your devices makes it easy to share documents between your iPad and another device, like a MacBook.
