Reducing the number of accessories that you must carry with your iPad Pro or MacBook but guaranteeing that you can do all kinds of work is what this new Ugreen X-Kit holder achieves that we can also get at a great price.
Support to work comfortably
For most, the working position of our laptop or iPad Pro is not the most comfortable, especially when we have to spend several hours with them. A keyboard that is too low and a screen that is also below our eyes makes fatigue reach our hands and neck sooner. That is why the use of supports has become very widespread. Ugreen has designed a support that we can use with our tablet or laptop, very light and foldable, so we can carry it in any bag.
Made of aluminum, it is a very solid support while only weighing 282gr. Folding and unfolding it is a matter of a second thanks to the system that Ugreen has devised and that allows the stand to be very stable and the working angle can be adjusted with a total of 4 positions ranging from 15 degrees to a maximum of 33 degrees. This allows you to tilt the keyboard slightly for more comfortable typing, or to position the computer at a more ergonomic height. Once the desired position has been established, there is no type of slack to bother typing.
The stand is covered with silicone in the contact areas with your laptop or tablet, to avoid damaging its delicate aluminum surface. You can use it with your MacBook Air and Pro, as well as your iPad Pro or Air. In the case of the latter two, it is ideal to use them with an external keyboard, or to place them like any laptop using a keyboard cover such as the Magic Keyboard. The support also includes a cover with which we can transport it.
A HUB with all the necessary connections
So far we would be talking about a very useful accessory, but it is that in addition to everything we have told you, this support includes five connections to get the most out of our laptop or tablet.
- USB-C 5Gbps
- 2x USB-A 3.0 5Gbps
- HDMI 4K 30Hz
- SD UHS-1 slot 104MB / s
- TF UHS-1 slot 104MB / s
The connection of the support to our laptop or tablet is done using a USB-C to USB-C cable that is included in the box. With that single cable we can connect an external screen, hard drives, memory cards, cameras, etc. The only downside that can be put is that it only has a USB-C, so if we want to work with our laptop connected to the current we will have to make use of another USB-C of the device. In the case of the iPad that is a problem, since we have a single USB-C, unless we have the Magic Keyboard that brings its own USB-C for charging.
Editor's opinion
Combining in a single accessory a base that allows you to raise your laptop or tablet, and a HUB to connect up to 5 different accessories is an excellent idea that Ugreen has carried out with an impeccable product. The only downside that can be put is the lack of another USB-C for direct charging of the laptop or tablet, a detail that has less relevance with the high autonomy that Apple laptops and tablets have today. This Ugreen X-Kit is available right now on Indiegogo (link) By a price of € 64, a discount of 34% compared to its official price when it goes on sale.
