Review on 🧭 Compass Pro for iPad by Twelve South: Portable Display Stand with 3 Optimal Viewing and Typing Angles for iPad and iPad Pro by Ryan Ramirez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Questionable upgrade from the original compass

The original compass really is the best. The Compass Pro is a throwback in terms of some of the most compelling design features like weight. The fold-out spikes are an improvement, and the space gray finish, which Amazon calls silver, looks very stylish. However, the extended rear arm adds only a few degrees and is almost invisible in terms of added functionality and comfort. It also doesn't work well with the iPad Mini in portrait mode or the 12.9-inch iPad Pro (unstable). This compass is also solid and heavy. Aside from these "improvements", the premium price makes it a dubious choice for me to use with my 11-inch iPad Pro.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Factor set
