In Use :-
The Curve Flex can raise the screen up to 22 inches, vastitude the obvious ergonomics, this moreover has the goody of raising the front camera up for a largest viewing angle, so the other parcipents of the video call/meeting aren’t looking up your nose. The stand can wile the keyboard between 0 and 45 degrees. Getting the parts to move how you want them can be slightly tricky so out of the box, there are plenty of visual indicators. There were stickers on several parts of the product to show where my hands would go to raise and lower it, as well as how to wile it. It was tricky the first several times, but not complicated.
A key element of a moveable stand is that it only moves when you want it to. After a several days of limp it and adjusting it into place, I felt confident that it was sturdy. There’s an included hex key (inside the specimen in a tiny pocket) to tighten or loosen the hinges, but I didn’t need to use it.
The Curve Flex fitted my MacBook Air nicely, that said the Curve Flex was worldly-wise to hold my Surface Book 3 ( which due to the removal diamond of the screen to quite a bit increasingly top heavy) just fine as well, due to the rubber wideness the top and the wiring of the unit, slipping and scratching wasn’t a worry. There are moreover shit of rubber where the stand may fold into itself to alimony it from hitting metal on metal.
The stand is misogynist in matte woebegone or white, anywhere the Twelve South Curve Flex palmtop stand touches anything else (desk, laptop, itself) there are high-quality silicon pads that are very nicely stuck to the sturdy painted aluminium. I was surprised that the Curve Flex came with a neoprene travel specimen as few products seem to come with their own accessories. It’s not the most luxurious case, but it kept the metal stand from dinging up any devices inside my computer bag.
I tried the Curve Flex in a couple of ways First, using it as a stand-alone palmtop stand with an external mouse and keyboard. This was unconfined for positioning the screen at eye level preventing neck strain when I was yonder from home.
The second was as a stand to position my palmtop in my work-from-home setup, setting the palmtop screen next to the external monitor. The adjustability really came into play here. It looked good and performed very well.
Conclusion:-
Yes a stack of books will bring your device up to eye level, but they are a bit increasingly difficult to bring with you on your travels. The Curve Flex is little bit on the expensive side, currently £89 on Amazon but it is well designed and built and very stylish, and matches Apples diamond ethos. It would make a good Christmas souvenir for the home worker or student in your life.
