BELKIN CASE

+ STAND

$34.99 From Belkin, belkin.com

Features Storage compartments for

Apple Pencil and accessories, fabric

inner lining, Apple Pencil stand

Keeping your Apple Pencil safe should be a priority,

and this case from Belkin does just that. The

compact design has space for the pencil itself,

plus a spare tip, cap, and charge adapter, so

you’re never rummaging around for these tiny

components. It also props up your Pencil, making

it easy to find and use when you need it.

BRYDGE PRO+

$199.99 (11–inch), $229.99

(12.9–inch) From Brydge, brydge.com

Features Multi–touch trackpad,

adjustable backlight, Bluetooth 5.0,

magnetic cover, three–month battery

Apple’s Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro is a great

addition, but at $299 and $349 for the 11–inch and

12.9–inch respectively, it’s also expensive. Brydge’s

excellent iPad Pro keyboard saves you money and

still gives you the same features, including a

spacious multi–touch trackpad and comfortable

backlit keys. There is also a magnetic cover to keep

the back of your iPad protected at all times.

SATECHI ALUMINUM

TYPE–C MOBILE

PRO HUB

$59.99 From Satechi, satechi.net

Features USB–C connector, four ports

(USB–C, USB–A, HDMI, headphone jack)

Apple has opened up the iPad to working with

external devices, but that often means carrying

a host of dongles. With this offering from Satechi,

though, you only need one. It has ports for HDMI,

USB–A, USB–C Power Delivery, plus a headphone

jack. Your peripherals can hook up to your iPad in

next to no time, making file transfers a breeze.
