iPad Pro What accessories are you finding useful/recommend for your new iPad Pro?

My new 2021 iPad Pro M1 silver 512gb is settling in. To save money I’m still using my external Magic Keyboard, and paired with a new Smart Folio to set the iPad in an upright position to view it is great for just typing. Makes the iPad more compact in everyday use since I don't need the convenient typing feature of the Magic Keyboard Folio all the time. Got a basic sleeve for the keyboard when I need it for portability.

My old APPLE leather sleeve for a 10.5” still works with the new 11” for taking it out and about from the house, and even the pencil storage slot works with the Pencil 2 (my first time using a pencil for notes, drawing, navigation, and I'm enjoying it).

Will probably pick up a LuluLook stand at some point for better desktop style work.

My SanDisk 2tb portable SSD is working well with the new thunderbolt connection.

And, since this is my first device without a headphone jack, I just splurged and got a pair of Master & Dynamic earphones that are very cool looking (sorry APPLE AirPods, no ‘noodles’ in my ears as we say here in Japan ;’), and the M&D have really great fidelity (I like my music).

My two favourite accessories are actually the least expensive. I prefer a simple case over a folio style. I'm using this 2020 one on my 2021 11".

Got this tablet stand from Ikea.

I'm also using a BT Apple Magic keyboard and I've ordered a Logitech MX Master 3 mouse. I have no need for the iPad Magic Keyboard - already own a MBP and don't want another laptop style device. I'm waiting to see if AirPods 3 get announced soon. If not I'll get the AirPod Pros. Using my Bose Soundlink Mini II in the meantime. Really enjoy using this M1 iPad Pro.
