Mounts, Stands and Holders for iPad 2

Things to Think About When Choosing an iPad Holder

Apple iPads are used everywhere by everyone from students toiling away at university to holidaymakers in coffee shops offering free Wi-Fi. iPads are generally used whilst lying flat on a tabletop or on the user's lap, but the right iPad holder can make all the difference in how much work the user can get done. Check out the guide below for key things to think about when choosing an iPad holder from eBay.

Are there iPad holders that charge and hold the iPad?

Though not common, there are iPad holders that allow you to charge the device whilst it's in the holder. These holders charge the iPad while it's in the portrait positions. Many users tend to use their iPads in the landscape position, however, so keep that in mind when making your selection if it's important for you to be able to view it in landscape mode while charging.

Can holders fold into more positions beyond horizontal and portrait?

In addition to the usual horizontal and portrait positions for handheld use, eBay also had iPad holders that can be folded into multiple positions so they can stand up on a table or desk. Some are capable of doing a full 360-degree rotation, which may be perfect for businesses with multiple users.

What are some options for iPad holders for businesses?

If you're choosing iPad holders for customer use, choose ones that have the ability to swivel towards and away from your customers so that they have control of the device. You'll also want to choose one that can be placed in an area that's easily reached by the customer so that they don't have to stretch in order to sign receipts or input information.

What should you look for in a bedside iPad holder?

There are several things that you should consider when choosing an iPad holder for bed use, and they are detailed below:

  • Adjustability: Consider one on adjustable legs that can be planted on either side of you as you lay in the bed.
  • Tilt: Choose one that allows you to customize the tilt level of the device so that you can adjust it to meet your eye level.
  • Affix: Consider options from eBay that allow you to affix the device to your bedside table, allowing for optimal viewing. This is ideal if you want to use the iPad whilst in bed but not have the holder on the bed.
