The Best iPad Case For Watching Movies

When you're choosing the best iPad case for watching movies, you have to be certain of one key aspect above all else - that the iPad case is well designed and crafted from strong materials. Why, you might ask? Well, because the most important part of watching a movie is the ability to be hands-free to enjoy your popcorn and soda! You'll therefore need the best case for holding your iPad up independently so that you can just sit back and relax. If nothing else, the iPad can actually get pretty heavy after a 2 hour movie - just try lying down holding it above your head, it's tough!

So let's get down to business. What is the best iPad case for the job? We obviously want one with a customisable tilt function which allows you to keep your iPad screen at a slant when watching movies, but we also want a case that is going to protect your iPad, make it look good and most importantly - not be too expensive! So this is why I have chosen the original Apple iPad case.

Now I know that there are a lot of other fantastic cases on the market, but I honestly can't see a better case for improving your media experience. The reason being, because Apple designed this case in coalition with the iPad to take advantage of all the features it offers. First off, this is a sleek case that is entirely in keeping with the smooth visuals of the iPad. If you're looking for the best iPad case to take with you to work in a professional environment, this is a great choice - colleagues will suspect nothing more than a swish notepad (which will prevent you being approached by those wanting to play Angry Birds!).

So how is this the best iPad case for watching movies? Well, it's that fantastic vertical tilt feature. Now, I know you'll probably be aware of many cases on the market that offer you the slightly elevated tilt that allows for more ergonomic typing without craning your neck, but this is entirely different. Apple have designed this tilt function to hold your iPad almost vertically, so that you can simply set it up, press play and relax just as though you were at home in front of the flatscreen. Another creative use of this feature is to set it up with a slide show of holiday photographs when guests are visiting, which emulates those fancy digital photo frames perfectly. The uses for this vertical tilt function are limitless and it's the prime reason for this case being ones of the best iPad cases in my book.

With regard to its other features, the original Apple iPad case does not disappoint. Being constructed from a special black microfibre, this case is unbelievably sturdy, offering maximum protection from the scrapes and scratches that often go unnoticed until you turn the screen to the light. Apple has also made it their aim to allow perfect functionality and access to all switches and input slots around the edges to not inhibit your experience.

Essentially, this iPad case does everything it's meant to do exceptionally - and then some for avid movie/TV/YouTube watchers.
