Adjustable desktop support for tablets and Microsoft Surface
Using Your Tablet Like a Computer? Stop Leaving the Screen Flat on the Desk.
Tablets and Microsoft Surface devices are incredibly flexible, but placing
one directly on the desk often leaves the screen much lower than you would
position a conventional monitor.
The Universal Tablet Desk Stand gives you a stable,
adjustable desktop platform that lets you raise, tilt and rotate your device
instead of adapting your sitting position around a screen sitting below you.
With height adjustment up to approximately 31cm, a
compact weighted steel base and compatibility with devices from
4" to 13", it is particularly useful when your tablet or
Surface forms a real part of your everyday workstation.
Turn a tablet into a properly positioned desktop screen.
Raise it, angle it, rotate it and place it where you actually want to look,
while keeping your keyboard and mouse positioned separately at desk level.
More Adjustment Than a Simple Tablet Prop
31cm
Raise the Screen Higher
Adjust the stand up to approximately 31cm high, giving you significantly
more vertical positioning than a low tabletop tablet holder.
360°
Portrait or Landscape
Rotate the device holder through 360° when you want to change between
vertical and horizontal screen orientation.
↗
Double-Joint Adjustment
Reposition the screen using the stand's adjustable joints rather than
being restricted to one fixed viewing angle.
STEEL
Stable Desktop Base
A substantial steel base provides a stable foundation while protective
contact pads help protect the desktop underneath.
Why Does a Tablet Stand Matter If the Device Already Has a Kickstand?
Built-in tablet and Surface kickstands are convenient, but they generally
keep the screen relatively close to the desk surface.
That can work well for occasional use, touch input or short sessions.
If you use the device for hours of work, however, you may want substantially
more control over screen height, viewing distance and angle.
A separate stand lets the screen become its own adjustable part of the
workstation rather than remaining tied to the position of the keyboard
or desk surface.
Particularly Useful for Microsoft Surface Workstations
Microsoft Surface devices can function as highly capable primary computers,
but their tablet-style design often means the screen sits low when the
device is placed directly on a desk.
Place the Surface in the Universal Tablet Desk Stand and use a separate
keyboard and mouse to position each part of the workstation independently.
Your screen can sit higher and further back while the keyboard remains
close to your body at desk level.
i
Using a detachable Surface keyboard?
For prolonged desk work, separating the keyboard from the raised screen
gives you much more freedom to position both around your body.
Build a Desktop Setup Around Your Tablet
1
Position the Screen
Raise and angle the tablet until it sits comfortably within your
normal viewing position.
2
Add a Separate Keyboard
Position the keyboard close enough that your elbows can remain relaxed
beside your body while you type.
3
Keep Your Mouse Close
Place your mouse or other pointing device beside the keyboard rather
than repeatedly reaching towards the raised screen.
Switch Between Portrait and Landscape
Different tasks work better with different screen orientations.
Landscape can be useful for spreadsheets, presentations, video and
side-by-side windows, while portrait orientation may suit long documents,
webpages, reading or communication apps.
The rotating holder lets you change the device orientation without
completely dismantling your setup.
Also Useful as a Second-Screen Stand
Your tablet does not need to be your primary computer for this stand to be useful.
Position a compatible tablet beside your main monitor and use it for
messages, video calls, reference material, calendars, documents or other
secondary information.
The additional height adjustment makes it easier to position the tablet
closer to the height of your main display instead of leaving it flat on the desk.
Designed for People Who Use Tablets as Real Work Devices
Microsoft Surface Users
iPad & Tablet Users
Hybrid Workstations
Second-Screen Setups
It can also work well for video meetings, study, digital reference material
or any desk-based task where the tablet needs to remain visible for long periods.
Check your device before ordering
Designed for Devices from Approximately 4" to 13"
The adjustable holder is designed for compatible tablets and devices
within the advertised 4" to 13" size range.
This includes many common tablets as well as compatible Microsoft Surface devices.
If your device uses a particularly bulky protective case, keyboard case
or unusually shaped cover, check that the combined device and case can
still sit securely within the holder.
Up to Approximately 31cm High
The stand can raise a compatible device substantially higher than a typical
fold-out tablet case or low-profile holder.
That makes it particularly useful when the tablet is being treated more
like a monitor than a handheld device.
i
Maximum height isn't automatically the best height.
Adjust the stand around your chair, desk, viewing distance and device
size rather than automatically extending it to the highest position.
A Substantial Base for a More Permanent Desk Setup
The Universal Tablet Desk Stand uses a
16cm × 16cm steel base to provide a stable foundation
while keeping the overall desktop footprint compact.
Protective cushioning underneath the base helps reduce movement while also
protecting compatible desk surfaces from direct metal contact.
This makes the product better suited to a regular desktop workstation than
ultra-lightweight stands designed primarily around travel.
Using the touchscreen regularly?
Remember That a Raised Screen Is Best for Viewing and Light Interaction
The stable base and adjustable holder allow normal touchscreen interaction,
but raising a device also increases the leverage applied to the stand when
you press firmly on the screen.
For prolonged typing, detailed data entry or mouse-style navigation, use
a separate keyboard and pointing device rather than relying entirely on
repeated touchscreen input.
Tablet Stand or Laptop Riser?
TABLET
Choose This Stand If...
You use a tablet or Surface-style device and want substantial height,
angle and orientation adjustment from a stable desktop base.
LAPTOP
Consider a Laptop Riser If...
Your device is a conventional clamshell laptop and needs support beneath
its entire base rather than being secured inside a tablet holder.
Choose It for Stability and Adjustment, Not Ultra-Light Travel
Some tablet stands are designed primarily to fold flat and disappear into
a small travel bag.
The Universal Tablet Desk Stand takes a different approach.
Its steel base and double-joint structure are designed to provide a more
substantial desktop setup with greater flexibility over where the device sits.
If this stand will remain on your desk or move only occasionally, that
stability is a significant advantage.
Set It Up Around Your Working Position
1
Position Yourself First
Set your chair and external keyboard around a comfortable desk-working position.
2
Bring the Screen to You
Adjust the stand height and joint position until the tablet sits within
a comfortable viewing area.
3
Fine-Tune the Angle
Tilt and rotate the holder to reduce reflections and suit the content
you're working with.
Raise the Screen Rather Than Repeatedly Dropping Your Head Towards It
A tablet sitting flat or low on the desk can encourage you to spend
extended periods viewing content below your normal forward line of sight.
The Universal Tablet Desk Stand gives you considerably more flexibility
over where that screen sits.
It cannot guarantee relief from neck or shoulder symptoms, but it can
remove one common workstation limitation by giving you independent
control over screen position.
Chair setup, keyboard position, viewing distance, movement and overall
workstation fit still matter.
