Review on Flexible Arm Tablet Holder, Lamicall Gooseneck Tablet Stand: Clip Mount for iPad Mini Pro Air, Switch, Galaxy Tabs, and More 4.7-10.5" Devices - Gray by Alvaro Delic

Love this stand. Your tablet directly on the table. This stand is very strong and durable, and its bottom edge is raised a few inches off the table for a more comfortable viewing angle. Because the tablet is elevated and the stand has a hole between the two support fingers, you can also connect the charging cable to the iPad vertically from below. Using these hinged plastic mounts doesn't leave room for a port on the bottom, so I always have to flip the iPad over to put the charging port on top, which puts the home button there as well. Also, the charging cable looks a bit strange coming from above. I use my iPad in landscape mode for a lot of things, but I like portrait mode when reading documents with lots of pages of text. It also comes in handy when reading e-books. I use a bluetooth keyboard with this stand and the setup is very similar to a standard computer monitor and keyboard setup. I think this is a much more desirable combination than foldable plastic stands or those keyboard case designs. The only downside I see is that it doesn't fold into a smaller profile like plastic coasters do. Not a problem for me as I mainly use it at home. When I travel with it I have found that it easily fits into a holdall and I can pack socks and other small items in and around it, so it doesn't really take up space. It's strong enough, it can't be bent. I use it with an iPad Pro 10.5, but I think it's on par with almost any tablet. Sometimes I put my iPhone in it and it works great too.
