The difference it makes!

With virtual lectures, I was sitting at my desk (including study time) for about 15 hours a day with excruciating back pain, so I was browsing for stands that can angle my ipad up while I was taking notes on it, so I don't have to hunch over on my desk. However, with me having to lean on the actual ipad to write, I couldn't find a stand durable enough that can support that weight without bending the stand downward. Even desk elevation platforms still required me to lean over it facing down bc of their flat designs which also caused me to have upper back/ shoulder pain.
I had the previous model of the mstand for my laptop for about 3 years now, and thought why not. The mstand I previously had was still just as sturdy as the day I first got it, so I knew I wouldn't have an issue with long-term durability. I know this company offers separate stands for ipads, but I decided to purchase another laptop mstand for my ipad because the angle of it was exactly what I wanted (plus, adjustable angles are only convenient if you're using your tablet only for viewing purposes imo). This item, being fixed at my preferred angle and being incredibly well made with sturdy metals, allows me to lean on my ipad all I want to jot down notes which saves my back like nothing else. Also, a plus is that it just looks and feels amazing. It's pretty much made out of the same metal and finish as my apple products, so it's heavy-duty and doesn't shift around at all.
I was especially impressed because this new design fixed all the problems I had with my previous design. The previous design has a slightly more elevated angle, which might not be as comfortable for some people, but this new design is lowered just a tiny bit to put less pressure on the back of your elbows while typing. Also, with the previous design I was always annoyed because the sticky rubber pieces to prevent the metal-on-metal scratching of my laptop kept falling off. However, with this new design, they increased the size of the rubber and thinned it out so that it can't fall off at all. Overall the design just feels a lot more durable and sleek.
I will definitely be recommending this to my colleagues!
