As a long-time Moft enthusiast, I can confidently say they excel at crafting innovative, lightweight, and portable products inspired by origami. Each of their items is designed to tackle several challenges at once. My favorite selections from 2024 were their Magsafe Tripod Wallet stand and Movas line for the iPhone 16. Now, as we head into 2025, they’ve introduced a truly unique accessory for the iPad: the Dynamic Folio. Let me share my thoughts on it.
Upon first inspection, the Dynamic Folio appears similar to other magnetic iPad folio cases, albeit with a few distinguishing creases. However, these creases are what truly set it apart from the competition. Its origami-style construction, combined with creases and magnets, offers more than 20 different viewing and positioning options for your iPad, in contrast to the mere two offered by most alternatives. It’s remarkably thin and lightweight, transforming your iPad into a more ergonomic device without any added bulk. Here are some of its standout features:
- Origami-Inspired Design – Effortlessly switch between various angles for drawing, typing, reading, or watching.
- Floating Mode – Elevates your iPad by up to 3 inches for enhanced comfort and posture.
- Phone Mount – Comes with a phone mount for viewing both your iPhone and iPad simultaneously.
- Multi-Orientation Support – Functions in both portrait and landscape orientations.
- Magnetic Attachment – Easily and securely attaches to your iPad.
- Apple Pencil Holder – The detachable holder, which connects magnetically, keeps your stylus close by.
- MOVAS Vegan Leather Finish – Durable, scratch-resistant, and luxuriously textured.
As evidenced by the features listed above, the Dynamic Folio offers incredible versatility when positioning the iPad across various scenarios.
My Usage Experience
While it’s fantastic to have such a multitude of options, the real question is whether they are practical and superior to the traditional tri-fold folio. For me, the answer is unequivocally yes! I’ve been pairing it with my M4 iPad Pro, and it’s quickly become one of my top accessories. Whether I’m sketching, jotting down notes, reading, or streaming on-the-go, it adjusts effortlessly to my needs. The stand offers surprising stability, even on softer surfaces like beds or sofas, and it folds completely flat for easy transport.
What I truly appreciate is how seamlessly it integrates into my routine. It doesn’t attempt to do too much; it simply provides the versatility I require when the moment arises. A standout feature for me is its ability to accommodate an iPhone in certain orientations, allowing for easy reference while keeping it positioned just above my iPad—another unique aspect I’ve not encountered elsewhere.
