Custom cases, stickers and skins are popular accessories for all e-reader devices. A person’s gear is a reflection of their style and an expression of who they are. Choosing the right accessory is as important as the device itself.
Here are some must-have accessories if you want to elevate your reading experience:
Hands-Free Stands
The main benefit of an e-reader is the option to use it hands-free. However, using it hands-free requires a stand to keep the device upright. While most cases come with an essential kickstand, they do not always provide the best support for reading without a desk or table.
Choosing the suitable stand depends on how you want to use it. Floor stands are for reading while lying down or standing, while foam or bean bag pillow stands are perfect for sitting. There are even models with cup holders and bowls for snack time—how cool is that?
What’s trending now?
The CTA Gooseneck Floor model is the clear winner when it comes to mobility and flexibility. Complete with wheels for mobility; the stand boasts a sturdy 12-inch cable that can be manipulated in any direction for maximum viewing. The telescopic handle extends 58 inches, so it can be used while standing. It is light and durable and has an additional pouch to hold a battery pack or mobile device.
Remote Control Page Turner
A hands-free experience would not be complete without a wireless remote page-turner. Move over, couch potato, and say hello to the quintessential lazy reader. And why not? Reading is all about relaxing.
The remote clip attaches to any device and, with the push of a button, easily turns the page. But it’s not just for reading; you can use it for presentations and other remote operations.
Portable Battery Pack
E-readers are notorious for extended battery life but must be charged at some point. Imagine you’re on a five-hour train ride deeply immersed in a romance novel, and you’re hanging on every last word, anxiously awaiting Marissa’s response to John’s wedding proposal when nothing happens. The battery on your e-reader died, and you’re mortified. You didn’t panic because you knew you had a backup plan; a portable battery pack was deep inside your backpack. You’re instantly plugged back in and shocked to learn she said no.
Not all power packs are created equal. The best models use rapid charging technologies, can charge up to five times before requiring a recharge, and have multiple ports for charging a variety of devices at the same time.
Experts agree that battery packs Anker products are leading the way.
What to do with all of these accessories?
While most accessories are compact, lightweight, and portable, if you plan to bring most of them, you will need a sleeve case, backpack or briefcase to carry them. Sleeve cases are the most popular choice because they come encased with trendy skins like Baby Yoda and Barbie. Designed with separate pockets and folders, the case materials range from cotton and vinyl to hard plastic. Rugged models are made of military grade material for maximum durability. These are waterproof and safe for use in any environment.
E-readers and accessories are ideal gifts for the readers in your life, and with so many choices, you will never run out of ideas. When choosing accessories, buy them in the same colour or theme so that everything matches and reflects the reader’s personality.
