We saw last week that it seems that Apple's "budget" tablet is being a bestseller and considering that it is between the most powerful tablets, including his performance in games, and that he will still give more of himself when he arrives iOS 11, I'm sure many of you will be encouraged to invest a little more to squeeze even its potential: we review the best accessories for him iPad 9.7.
The best covers to have it well protected
The most basic need that we are going to find when we have a new tablet is that of a good cover that helps us protect it from inclement weather and shocks, and it is something especially important at times like this when we travel more than ever. The most obvious option and an always safe bet is your own Apple Smart Cover, which can be purchased for $45 and that for this iPad is also available in red. If we are looking for something cheaper, however, we must always take into account the folio case of MoKo, which can be purchased on Amazon for only $10.
One thing that is good about the new iPad 9.7, unlike what happens with the iPad Pro 10.5 cases, is that since its measurements are the same as those of the first iPad Air, we can use those without too much trouble. It also means that extra-resistant covers that we recommend at the time for that one is still valid, although of course all manufacturers already have a specific model for the new tablet. And the same applies to special covers for children, in case you are going to share it with them.
The best keyboards to use for work too
Although it is not as specially designed for it as the iPad Pro, for everything we mentioned at the beginning, the iPad 9.7 It can be an excellent work tool, especially if we complement it with a good keyboard cover, something we can do for very little money. In general, the most important thing is to check that they are Spanish (with ñ) and that they have a built-in battery. For instance, MoKo has an interesting model that we can buy on Amazon now for only $30, but keep in mind that it is the one sold in the United States, so our preferred option is this case with the wireless keyboard of the first iPad Air, which costs only $25 and it works perfectly.
If we can afford a slightly larger investment, we must always take into account Logitech, in this case with your new Slim Folio what can we get for about $90. More in this price range, another option is to bet directly on a wireless one, regardless of the case, and here again we can take advantage of the recommendations that we already made at the time of wireless keyboards for iPad, where those of Logitech, Kensigton and Microsoft. And speaking of Microsoft, it must be said that we would love to hear from that soon anyway. iPad Touch Cover on which he appears to be working.
The best stylus (and also very affordable options)
One of the things we might miss in the iPad 9.7 is that it has no support for it Apple Pencil, but that does not mean that we cannot enjoy a good stylus And although now there are some new models that are worth taking into account, in general terms the references that we gave you for the iPad Air are still the ones that are most worth taking into account, although we would like to add some other reference, simply as an alternative for those who need a thicker pencil to use it comfortably (or for children too), which would be cosmonaut and what can we buy for $25.
It must also be emphasized that both Adonit and Wacom, which are probably the two most popular brands, have high-priced styluses, but it is likely that those who need an accessory to draw at the highest level have probably already opted for the iPad Pro , while we have models like Adonite Mark that can be bought for only $12: Wacom Bamboo Stylus, for only $16.
Even more accessories: to play games, to listen to music, to add battery ...
Before finishing, we want to highlight a few more accessories that you can take full advantage of and that will help you unleash the potential of your new iPad, not just for work. For example, enter the best accessories we have to play on tablets there are the controls Gamevice and there are a model that we can use with all 9.7 inches. And if we are going to play, but also to watch movies or listen to music, headphones will not only help us not to disturb others but can also greatly improve the multimedia experience, which is why a mention is required of the AirPods.
And whether it is because we constantly use it to work or to play, if we take it out of the house often, it is likely that from time to time we will find that we run out of energy. The iPad 9.7 has performed very well in the autonomy rankings and we have at your disposal a guide to tips and tricks to help you save battery with iOS 10, but depending on your habits, it is no longer necessary to consider carrying an external battery with us and the safest bet, are those of Mophie, from $35.
