Top 5 iPad Accessories

Here are our top picks for the very best essential accessories for the original iPad. If you’re looking for the second generation iPad 2, then check out this post!

1. Otterbox iPad Defender

This best-selling iPad Defender case from brilliant manufacturers Otterbox is the ultimate protection for your iPad. With three individual layers of protection, including a custom moulded polycarbonate shell, a durable silicone mid layer and a self-adhering clear protective film, your iPad will be wrapped up tighter than your kids on a snow day. The case still allows full access to all of your iPad’s functionality through the clever use of silicone port plugs, too.

2. Desktop iPad Cradle

This is our most popular charger for the iPad —  the Desktop iPad Cradle! The cradle is perfect for watching movies or just reacting to incoming notifications on your iPad. As well as holding your iPad in portrait mode, it also syncs and charges the Apple device so you’re always ready to go. This would go perfectly with a wireless keyboard and mouse for remote operation similar to a laptop.

3. Power Support Anti-Glare for iPad

Sometimes it can be difficult to use your iPad outside, with all of the sun’s rays causing glare problems in sunny spots. Beat back the sun’s advances with this anti-glare screen protector. As well as glare removal, you’ll also find that your glossy iPad screen is protected from scrapes and scratches. This is our best-selling iPad anti-glare screen protector, so definitely a worthwhile purchase.

4. KeyCase iPad Folio Deluxe with Bluetooth Keyboard

If you’re looking to get some work done with the iPad, the KeyCase Folio Deluxe is an ideal companion. Packing up your iPad into a laptop-like shell, you’ll be able to easily type out long documents or articles, whether you’re writing a blog, finishing off your financial documents or sending out an email. With the leather-effect case, you’ll also be protecting your iPad from the rigors of the working world. This is our top-rated Bluetooth keyboard case for the iPad, and with 33% off the RRP it’s half the price of its nearest competitor. 

5. Griffin Capacitive Stylus For iPad And iPhone

If you’re wearing gloves or don’t want to dirty your iPad’s screen, then this capacitive stylus can be a godsend. Just like a pencil, it works equally well left handed or right handed, and is perfect for drawing, taking notes and playing games. The stylus can also be essential if you’ve got long nails, making it much more comfortable to operate.
