Whether it’s for entertainment or work, our lives are becoming more and more connected with modern electronic devices. But holding our iPad Pro or iPad mini might become a hassle after long periods of time. Thankfully, there are practical, sturdy, and easily adjustable holders that will make using our devices a breeze.

So we at Bright Side found the best iPad stands on Amazon, and we hope you find the one you need.

1. Super adjustable holder

Promising reviews:

  • Well worth the money. I bought this for my son while he was at college. I wanted strength, a quality build, and portability, so he could sling it in his backpack when he travels. My son hadn’t heard of these things when I told him I’d got him one. He wasn’t impressed. This was something he neither wanted nor needed.
    However, since the first use, he has told me he loves it. Really loves it. High praise indeed from this typically cynical lad. And now I’ve got myself one. Haven’t had it long, but so far, so good. Very impressed.” — Deb
  • Good tablet holder without paying a fortune. It is strong, versatile, and even fits my iPad Pro 12.9 without a problem. Really pleased with it.” — Viking

2. Desktop iPad stand

Promising reviews:

  • One of the best iPad stands...it’s fantastic and well-made, it is small, which makes it easy to place and unintrusive as well as sturdy. What I will say is that I use my iPad to draw, and the base is really designed for the more average use of a tablet. So the base is not waited to withstand the constant movement of stiles on the surface.
    In short, it could be pushed over if you are using it more like a drawing board support than a stand for, let’s say, typing. But it is easily adjustable for my needs — you could put a wait on the base or clamp it, as I have. When used as it was intended, however, it is brilliantly sturdy and the hinges are well-made and stay set where you leave them. I would suggest that for the average tablet user, this is a 5-star product.” — Benjamin
  • A...6-star customer service! A stable and heavy stand. It could be cheaper and totally black, though.
    Update: LamicallDirect contacted me and replaced it with a new, totally black one, allowing me to also keep my old one. If this customer service isn’t worth 5 stars, then what is? I am really impressed, I would definitely buy any Lamicall product again without hesitation. Thank you.” — Jones

3. Tripod stand

Promising reviews:

  • “This is the most useful thing I have bought in many years. I am a guitarist and was getting a sore back and neck looking down at my tablet on my lap while playing guitar in order to follow the music on the iPad. It is just amazing that I can play and look at the device in a comfortable position. It’s fully height-adjustable and very sturdy.
    I am impressed with the quality, especially for the price. The flexibility of the neck of it is quality and sturdy. I was pleasantly surprised, it came with a Bluetooth remote for taking photos as well. It’s the most useful thing that I have bought in a long time.” — Gjs Davies
  • Very good iPad holder. I was searching online for something that could hold my iPad Pro that could be rotated to record at any angle, easily. I found this tripod holder and looking at the pictures, it seemed to be just what I was looking for; versatile, sturdy, and stable.
    As soon as it arrived, I found myself assembling it without reading the instructions. It was very easy to assemble, and once it was put together, I knew that it was exactly as I had wanted. The holder was very versatile, and I was able to use it for many different devices.” — Catherine

4. Simple and durable stand

Promising reviews:

  • Great quality product. The product arrived quickly and was very well packaged, everything had protective film and bags over it. It has to be assembled, however, it is very, very easy — it’s just one screw at the bottom and everything is included. It’s very sturdy and feels very nice and secure.
    I’ve used it for my iPad, which is 12.9 inches. You can rotate your screen and adjust the height and tilt of the screen very easily. The base is heavy enough to hold the device on it steadily, and it is very sturdy. I love it and wish I bought this sooner. I use it everywhere, so I can watch my favorite shows while doing tasks and use it as a monitor and type with the screen at eye level instead of hunching.” — AP
  • Just the thing for the job! I bought this one to use with an iPad Pro 12.9. So far, I’m impressed, the base is heavy enough that it doesn’t feel like it will fall over. The spring-loaded holder is a bit of a challenge at first, but when you get the hang of it, the iPad is secure in its grip.
    It can be rotated to either horizontal or vertical positions, it also tilts forwards and backward, plus it extends vertically to quite a height. It’s perfect for my needs, using for Zoom meetings, or reading e-books for college work.” — DWP

5. Washable and soft iPad and iPad mini holder with pockets

Promising reviews:

  • Very handy. Great to watch i-Player or YouTube in bed. The velour covering prevents the stand and the iPad from slipping. I also use it on my desk. It keeps the screen at the right incline while keeping my hands free.” — M. S. Srivastava
  • Good quality iPad cushion. Been looking for a while for a cushion to sit my device on my lap without the need to hold it. This fits the bill perfectly, it’s well-made and light, and the soft cover zips off for washing.
    Just the right size for my iPad whilst sitting on the sofa, with 2 generous pockets to fit in pens and a pad if needed. Excellent value. Comes rolled up but soon springs back to shape in seconds.” — Mick from Essex

6. Clip-on foldable tablet holder

Promising reviews:

  • Hands-free holder to hold your iPad. I attached it to my desk because you can clamp it there easily. It looks bigger in the photos than in real life. If you want to place your tablet, I suggest you place it in landscape because it fits better like that. I find that the general build of the product comes across quite cheap, and I am unsure if it will be long-lasting.” — Mac
  • Very sturdy and adjustable. This tablet stand is very sturdy and well-made. The holder is adjustable to hold anything from an iPhone to a full-size iPad. The neck can also be adjusted to any angle and height. The clip-on feature is strong and didn’t come loose at any time. All in, this is a very good iPad stand, ideal for limited workspace.” — Offtheplanet

7. Pillow iPad stand

Promising reviews:

  • Great product. This arrives rolled up tight and is so light that you think all that has arrived is a box. The material is soft, and the different positioning is good for each device you may use. I bought it for my husband as he was using my pillows, it is a success.” — Bam36
  • Nice little foam tablet/Kindle phone rest. Solves my problem as I needed a way to watch films in bed thanks to the firm triangle.” — gail mcphee

8. Durable iPad floor stand

Promising reviews:

  • Legs can open flat, and it’s lightweight. There are many good stands on Amazon, but this one stood out to me because the legs can open flat on the ground, which is less of a tripping hazard and also better for stability. Note, it is less than 64.9 inches if you use it with the legs flat. Overall, this product is very light and compact when retracted. An excellent product in my honest opinion.” — Olch
  • Very sturdy and adaptive — highly recommend. I’ve had stands for iPads before, and this one is far superior. It’s much more sturdy and robust. It goes up taller and, when folded down, folds smaller. Making it handy to transport. I’m very impressed. It’s very good quality.” — Julie G.

9. iPad and iPad mini holder mount for microphone

Promising reviews:

  • Best quality. I bought this to attach my iPad to a mic stand during performances in a vocal group. It’s very sturdy and secure, great quality, and worth every penny.” — Alison
  • 99% all metal. Used this last night, and it worked extremely well, very sturdy and held my tablet in place with no problems at all on my tripod, the only piece of plastic I can find on it is on the ball joint controlling the 360° swivel, but apart from that, this is a very good mount and does what it says on the tin.” — John Eland

10. Bean bag holder for all devices

Promising reviews:

  • Best Father’s Day gift — I bought this as a Father’s Day gift as my father-in-law was having heart surgery, so I thought it would be good for his recovery when he got home. He told us this was the best gift we ever gave him. Not only can he put his iPad on it to watch TV, but he also uses it as a cushion to protect where the scar on his chest is, from when he coughs, gets in the car, and lies in bed — he even hugs it. Such a fantastic gift.” — SS83
  • Does the job. For years, I’ve had a chronic illness, which means I’m periodically confined to my bed or sofa for hours at a time. My trusty Fire tablet helps to keep me sane, entertained, and connected during those times. However, holding the tablet for hours at a time makes my hands and arms ache.
    I tried all kinds of arrangements of pillows or cushions, but they were pretty useless — either the angle was wrong for reading or the tablet kept sliding down. But the iBeani is easy to carry from room to room. It’s altogether so handy that I now use it even when I’m not ill. Thoroughly recommended.” — GrumpyGranny
