iPad 10.2 MUST HAVE Accessories - 8th Gen (2020) / 7th Gen (2019) Cases, Pencils and More! By FishBee Productions

So in today's video I'm going to show you a few different cases: two different Apple Pencil alternatives and a couple different keyboard cases, and I'll leave a link in the description below with current pricing and more information for everything covered in today's video. So let's go ahead and get started, so the first case up is by brace in', and I've used cases like this before on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 they're, always a perfect case to get especially with the hands strap on the back. It just makes it really convenient to use your tablet one-handed. So this one is $24.99 on Amazon, but there's also a 5% off coupon. You can get this one in red, purple, pink, green, blue and black. It also comes with a carrying strap in case.

You want to connect it to the corners. It also comes with a cleaning cloth and an extra silicone tip for your Apple Pencil. So this one has a Velcro hand, strap that's adjustable to fit just about any hand and then the hard plastic center part that rotates. Then it's got a really nice heavy duty, silicone back to it. It also has a built-in stand which you can use a vertical or landscape.

So that's always nice to have you've even got a spot for an Apple Pencil or, in this case an Apple Pencil alternative. It is a little tighter with a Logitech Korean, but hey. It still fits one thing, I always like to mention. You can always take these out of the corners if you're not going to use the strap. So you can see the volume buttons and power button is covered by that silicon material, which makes it really easy to use and the fact that they stick out quite a bit makes it really easy to find.

You've also got a nice cutout here for your front facing camera and for the touch ID fingerprint scanner as well. You've also got cutouts for the rear facing camera and microphones. Then you get a flap that protects the headphone, jack charging port, and then you've got holes here along the bottom. For the speakers, in that black plastic piece along the front sticks out quite a bit so that it protects the screen now this next one up is by Ben ? Ben, and it's currently $15 on Amazon, but there's also a dollar off coupon. You can get this one in two different colors you've got gray and black or navy blue.

Now this one is definitely a rugged heavy-duty case, but maybe one step down from the bracing and the cool thing about this one is: it's got a spot for an Apple Pencil, and they leave a little opening on the back in order to pop it out of there and again, the Logitech crayon is a little tight, but it still fits fairly decent, and you can see it around the edges. It's a really large lip, so you're not going to have to worry about anything hitting the screen. Then you've got a cutout for the front facing camera, and then you got a flap for the headphone jack. You can see. It's got two plastic plugs covering what is probably for the iPad Pro, which has speakers on both sides, and then you get a hole there in the middle for the microphone and again, the silicone covers the power button and the volume buttons which makes it really easy to use.

Although the silicone on the back does feel like it's a little loose, then you got to cut out there in the back for the Apple logo. Then you get cutouts along the bottom here four speakers and, of course, a flap for the charging port, so this one does add a little of weight to the iPad, but not quite as much as the bracing. So my first impressions of this case is that it looks really nice. It seems to work really well. So, if you're wanting to achieve yet somewhat slim rugged, K's I'd say this is a fairly decent option now.

The next case up is by EU goo, and it's currently $49.99 on Amazon. Now this is more of a pad folio style. Now this is more of a pad folio style, it's sort of like a leather material, but it has a matte finish to it, unlike some of the cheaper ones that are really shiny. This one looks really nice in person, and it's got a nice little elastic sleeve here on the back just store. Your Apple Pencil on the inside is almost like a velvet really soft material in the back part that it actually snaps into it's, not a hard plastic, but it's more of a hard CPU material.

So it does have a little of flex to it, and it does have a pretty strong magnet. It's got a pretty strong magnet here to keep the front closed and, yes, it does have the auto wake. Auto sleep feature the power and volume buttons are that hard CPU material which you do have to push just a little harder than the soft silicone, but it still actually works pretty good, and then you get a little indent here on the side that makes it really easy to open and close. You've got cutouts for the rear facing camera, microphones and headphone jack and then cutouts along the bottom. For the speakers and charging port and the cool thing about this one is it's got a magnetic stand on the back as well that actually fit right into the grooves on the front cover which gives you a different position.

So I've used a lot of these pet folio cases, and this is probably one of the best quality cases that I've used. So now, we've got a couple different keyboard cases to look at, and the first one is by Games case, and it's currently $36.99 on Amazon and you get seven different colors to choose from, so the show on this one is made of a hard CPU material. You can see there's a little spike here on the side for the Apple Pencil, and they leave a little spot here on the back, where you can just pop that out, it doesn't look like it's made for the Logitech pen. You can force it in there, but it's not really made for it, and it doesn't quite close all the way. Now.

The keyboard itself is super lightweight. It really just kind of sticks to the inside of the front cover it really doesn't move at all. So you can use this case with or without the keyboard I'm, not sure, if I'm really a fan of this glitter sparkly stuff on the outside, and it's got a magnet that holds it together as it wraps around the back of the case and then on. The bottom. You've got cutouts for the speakers and charging port cutout for the microphone on the back, also for the power button and the headphone jack, and again it's got some extra holes here.

If you have the iPad Air ten point five inches, and then it's also got a cutout for the volume buttons and this one does have the auto wake or Auto sleep feature as well. Now the keyboard itself feels super lightweight. You've got the power on and off and connect button up in the right-hand corner and micro USB charging port on the side. So we should be able to connect through Bluetooth wow that actually seemed really easy. Alright, so let's go ahead and try some typing okay.

So my first impressions of this keyboard case is yeah. This is actually pretty good. This is actually a lot better than I was expecting for under 40 bucks. Now, one cool thing about having a keyboard on an iPad is you can access a lot of the controls right here on the keyboard, such as turning the volume up and down screen brightness, switching between apps and there's just a lot of other things you can do, which just seems faster with a keyboard now the only thing I noticed on this keyboard is all the letters on the keys, just sort of look like stickers, so I'm not really sure how long those are going to last before they start wearing off. But for this price point, I can't really complain.

So, if you're looking for a cheap keyboard case, that works, you'll definitely want to consider this Am's case, but you may want to try a different color. Now next up is a keyboard case from in Finland, and this is currently 49.95 on Amazon, but there is currently an extra 5% off coupon. Now, as far as I know, there is just a black version of this one, so this is very similar to the Games case, just a little different material, and on this one it's got a smaller magnetic flap. That goes to the front of the case. Instead of to the back now, this one has a hard plastic shell.

Instead of a hard CPU and one thing you'll notice about this, one is the keyboard is actually built-in. Now, along the top, you've got cutouts for the headphone jack microphone and power button. Now the volume buttons on this one are a little harder to get to, but they do leave just enough room, so you can still get to them. It's got one big opening along the bottom for the charging port and speakers, and then you get a power and Bluetooth button for the keyboard, along with the micro USB charging port on the back. You've got a cutout for the rear facing camera, and then, as you can see, this one has a built-in kickstand, which is actually pretty rigid almost like a friction, hinge.

Okay, so this keyboard connects a little different as well. Once you hold the power down for three seconds, then you've got to do function and C for connect. Then it'll pop up under Bluetooth devices, okay, so I was just trying to type the exact same thing that I typed on the other keyboard case. I had a couple issues where the cursor would jump up a couple lines, but I'm almost thinking it's because I kept hitting page up, but I'm almost thinking it's because I kept hitting page up which actually goes up a line, so part of it is probably just getting used to this keyboard. Well, I think this one is probably better quality than the is case.

One I felt like the is case. Keyboard was a little more comfortable and again, like the other one you're going to be able to do a lot of the same stuff, such as switch between apps turn, screen brightness up turn the volume up and down, and there's just a lot of other stuff to do. But this is just a quick overview. So that's just a quick look at the in fluent keyboard case for the new, and so I, don't know, so I, don't know what do you guys think so, I, don't know what do you think so, I, don't know what do you think there's a ton of options out there if it was up to me, I'd probably choose the is case over this one and one accessory I think is almost mandatory if you're into gaming is an Xbox One controller, especially right now during holidays sales. So next up we've got two different adapters.

One is a lightning to HDMI adapter, which actually works pretty good. If you want to take whatever's on your iPad and connect it to a large TV or even a projector, all you do is plug this in to the iPad. Then you have to plug in the lightning cable that came with your iPad. Then it's just a matter of plugging in your HDMI cable. Now, just keep in mind that this doesn't charge the iPad when you're using it, then the other adapter is a lightning to USB.

Now this is made for a camera, but you can also plug in a lot of other USB devices, and you hook it up the same way you just plug in your power into the adapter and then the adapter into the iPad, and then you can plug in your USB device. Now this is just a standard flash drive, but you can also use it for a mouse keyboard, external hard drive, etc. So, if you're looking for an Apple Pencil alternative, there is some cheaper ones like this Kim wood, that's less than 40 dollars, but I just haven't had much luck with it, but with the Logitech crayon digital pencil I mean this thing is perfect and accurate. So if you're thinking of getting something like this cheaper Kim would personally I, wouldn't it's just a little too finicky, and it seems like it only works. Half the time.

I would just get the Logitech RAM. So if you've made it this far into the video, you may want to say thanks by subscribing and don't forget, to give a thumbs up. If this video was helpful, this is Brian from fish to be productions. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you on the next one.
