My iPad used to be a screen. MOFT’s Dynamic Folio made it the ultimate floating workspace

Meet the Dynamic Folio – a case from the folks at MOFT that elevates your iPad. Literally. And at multiple heights and angles, that too. I saw the Dynamic Folio at CES this year and I can’t begin to tell you how much time I spent just fiddling around with the case, trying to master all its unique folding techniques. You see, I come from a time when iPad cases were pretty simple – roll the flap into a triangle and prop your iPad up, or pop a kickstand at the back and dock your iPad on a surface. The Dynamic Folio doesn’t belong to that era – it comes from a future where a case empowers an iPad while protecting it. Perhaps the only case on the market that makes your iPad hover, the Dynamic Folio goes above and beyond to make using the iPad ergonomic for creators, helping them unleash their productivity and creativity.

The Dynamic Folio is the latest from MOFT’s collection of wild origami-inspired cases, stands, and accessories. MOFT has made a name for itself with clever accessories that are as playful as they are practical. The Dynamic Folio continues that legacy, turning a simple magnetic cover into a multi-angle workstation. At first glance, it’s an unassuming slab of MOVAS (MOFT’s proprietary vegan leather alternative) wrapped around a fiberglass core. But with a few folds, it morphs into a hovering stand, an ergonomic sketching surface, or a perfectly balanced reading perch.

MOFT has mastered the art of functional folding. The Dynamic Folio attaches magnetically and can be manipulated into multiple positions, each designed for different use cases. There’s a low-angle 30-degree mode for sketching and note-taking (which also allows you to flip the iPad backward to face a collaborator), a 45-degree setup that works well for typing, and a full 60-degree elevation that lifts the iPad up to three inches off the desk—perfect for video calls, watching content, or using the tablet as a secondary display that’s at eye level with your desktop monitor. Unlike Apple’s Smart Folio, which offers only two static angles, MOFT’s design feels intentionally versatile, adapting to different workflows instead of forcing you to adapt to it. In true MOFT fashion, the Dynamic Folio is also lighter than Apple’s own offerings.

The Dynamic Folio’s magic lies entirely in these crease lines. They go above and beyond anything you’ve seen, giving you up to 6 ways to dock your iPad Pro for maximum efficiency… in both landscape AND portrait modes. Icons help guide you to master the multiple folding patterns. It almost feels like actually building something out of origami – you’re filled with a sense of curiosity as you use it, and its effortless folding makes it almost a fidget toy of sorts – but when you fold it to the right angle, you’re rewarded with an iPad viewing experience above any other folio case on the market.

If 6 different docking styles weren’t enough, the Dynamic Folio is also the only iPad case (to my knowledge) that lets you simultaneously dock your iPhone with your iPad Pro. A small fold creates an additional stand to magnetically attach your iPhone as a second screen, which is a thoughtful touch for anyone juggling devices. And if you’re an Apple Pencil user, MOFT even offers an optional magnetic holder to keep the stylus secured. It’s one of those small conveniences that make you wonder why Apple hasn’t built something similar into their own cases. Want to migrate from a table to working on your lap? The Dynamic Folio has a lap mode too, which is perfect for on-the-go work while you’re in an Uber or on a flight.

The case itself is built with a fiberglass core wrapped in MOVAS, MOFT’s proprietary vegan leather alternative. It’s soft, durable, and resistant to scratches—because let’s be honest, nobody wants their expensive iPad case looking like a worn-out notebook after a few weeks. The largest 13-inch version of the Dynamic Folio adds 292 grams to the iPad, while the 11-inch version is slightly lighter. It’s nowhere near as heavy as Apple’s Magic Keyboard, making it a great choice for those who want a functional stand without the bulk of a full keyboard case.

Apple’s own Smart Folio has always been the default option for those who don’t want to think too hard about accessories. It’s sleek, it’s magnetic, and it folds into a couple of basic angles. But that’s exactly the problem—it’s basic. The Dynamic Folio isn’t here to be just a cover; it’s a functional upgrade that treats the iPad like the high-powered machine it is. You don’t buy an iPad Pro to use it like a paperback book. You buy it because it’s a creative tool, a second screen, a sketchpad, and a workstation. A case should enhance those capabilities, not limit them.

The Dynamic Folio comes in 2 colors for now – a dual-tone cement + sapphire (grey and blue), or a classic jet black, and in 3 sizes – for the iPad Mini, for the 11″ iPad Pro (M4 and below) or the 13″ iPad Pro (M4 and below). The cases are also compatible with recent iPad Air models too, although you can check the link below to see if your iPad will fit into the Dynamic Folio, which ships globally as early as May 2025.
