If you've got an iPad Pro 11” (2018/2020/2021), an iPad Air (2020) or an iPad Pro 12.9" (2018/2020/2021), and want the fanciest dock on the block, the Kensington StudioDock is it. While its HDMI connectivity isn't too useful, given the fact iPad OS doesn'...

I don't so much begrudge Kensington the StudioDock's price tag. Yes, $380-$400 isn't exactly cheap, but then again neither are Apple's USB-C dongles for the iPad Air and iPad Pro. If you want the Multiport adapter (for HDMI, USB-C, and USB-A), plus an SD...

StudioDock is the full-featured iPad stand some of us have been hoping for. It's far more than a solid way to hold up your tablet thanks to its many ports for connecting to accessories. It makes an iPad into a small iMac… an iMac that lets you pop off the...

At the very least, iPadOS needs a way to run two apps side by side on the internal display and external display simultaneously. Although no fault of its own, the half-baked external monitor support is the StudioDock's most glaring flaw.Here's hoping that...
