Moft recently released its latest Apple accessory, a clever origami-style tome that pairs with a stand that offers convenient iPad versatility with a minimalist design. Over the past few weeks, I've been testing the Snap Float Folio, which offers four ways to lift an iPad Pro, Air, or mini using durable magnets.

Materials and build
The vegan leather that Moft used for the Float Folio is smooth and soft right out of the box. I found it lived up to its claims of being scratch resistant, I haven't scratched it in a month of using it regularly. jpg” />Black Moft Float Folio
I love how clean and simple this folio is in a very slim form factor. It doesn't add bulk or weight to your iPad, but it does provide four different stand positions with clever angled folds.
Fits my 12.9″ screen. The iPad Pro is precise, and the magnets provide a strong connection to hold the iPad securely in place.
In use
With this unique design, it took me a bit of practice to get the Float Folio's conversion to hang in it's various forms. Luckily, the company has included a handy picture guide that makes this process much easier.
Although all four configurations are useful , 3.6″ the floating stand quickly became my favorite. This is how the stand looks from the back in maximum mode.
On a desktop or at a desk, it's really handy to be able to bring the iPad much closer to your eyes. level with such a thin tome. Plus, it offers a great experience in the kitchen, workshops, and more.
Float Folio's minimalist attributes make it a great travel choice. The only downside to the highest mode is that if you press the screen frequently, there is a slight wobble. But that's part of the trade-off for getting functionality in such a thin folio.
Here's how 2.3″ floating horizontal height:
It offers more lift than most iPad folios but has slightly more stability than 3.6″ float above.
And you still have the more traditional 20 and 70 degree angles that other folios offer:
These folios have no protection if you drop your iPad on an edge or corner.
