Logitech AnyAngle is a protective case with an ‘any-angle’ stand for your iPad Air 2 and iPad mini

Jared Weintraub -
New ProductLogitech

There are 2 problems with the current state of iPad stand/cases out there according to Logitech. 1: They don’t always match the sleek and slim style of the iPad, and 2: You typically get only 2-3 viewing options from them.

The Logitech AnyAngle, unlike current cases, uses a hidden magnet and hinge system that’s strong enough to hold your iPad at any angle. The case also looks pretty sleek and comes in six different colors.

The Logitech AnyAngle joins Logitech’s lineup of protective cases – including the Logitech Big Bang and the Logitech Hinge, both of which are now compatible with the iPad Air 2. The Logitech AnyAngle is expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe beginning in November 2014 for a suggested retail price of $59.99.
