love affair with aluminum. Though Just
Mobile released an early, rigid iPad
stand called UpStand, the company
collaborated with the Danish design
team Tools to create superior sequels:
Slide, an exercise in playful design
mixed with portable utility, and the
circular Encore, the most beautiful
iPad holder we’ve yet seen. While the
partnership hasn’t always yielded
ideal results, they’ve always been
interesting; the Lounge stand for
iPhones recalled mid-20th century
conceptions of futuristic chairs - a cute
but rare example of inelegance. On
the whole, Just Mobile has shown a
mastery of silver metal matched by few
competitors, using it for nearly every
new accessory - the Alupad mouse
pad, the MacBook Cooling Bar, and the
AluPen stylus. And it now confidently
uses clean hinges and black plastics to
prop iPads up on a variety of angles,
simple but smart elements that would
have been unthinkable with Xtands
only years ago. Throughout its product
range, Just Mobile’s designs have
stayed true to the company’s vision to
“unify form and function - and then
sprinkle a little joy on top;” they are
now amongst the most memorable
accessories for Apple’s mobile products.
