There are a lot of laptop accessories on the market, from various USB hubs, peripherals to dock stations and others. One of the less published is a stand for the laptop itself or MacBookWe have a vast amount available. variant whether plastic or metal, these stands can also be divided into passive or active. Active stands usually have a USB hub, specific ones also dockdocking station for a specific laptop model. Let's take a closer look at the mStand stand from the American company Rain Design.

As one of the few, mStand is made specifically for MacBook a MacBook ProThe manufacturer tried to make the mStand look like the leg on which the iMac stands. The design corresponds to this, which is very similar.
The stand is therefore passive, made from a single piece of aluminum with a matte finish, so you don't have to worry about any fingerprints and you don't have to deal with constant polishing of the surface. The dimensions are designed to comfortably accommodate a 13" MacBook and 15” and 17” MacBook ProOf course, owners of classic laptops can also purchase this stand, but the holder is designed specifically for MacBooky.

The base does not take up much space on the table, it is rectangular in shape with rounded corners and the base dimensions are 25 x 19 cm. The upper part on which the MacBook It is 23 cm high, so the surface and stability are sufficient. In the middle there is a small hole in the shape of a drop, which refers us to the manufacturer Rain Design. In the places where the Mac touches the pad and on the corners of the upper surface there are rubber protrusions that raise the Mac a few millimeters above the surface of the base, thanks to which there is better airflow and, since the entire base is made of aluminum, better cooling.

The shape is designed in such a way that if you don't need an external keyboard, you can simply store it on the surface of the lower base. And what about cables? There is a cleverly designed hole on the leg at the back of the stand, where, just like with the iMac, you can pull the required connection cables through and connect them to your computer from the side.

I would say that perhaps the only drawback is the price of this beautiful piece of accessory. The manufacturer offers the mStand on its website for 49,99 USD, we have it for 900 bro CZK, a nice price, but if we add the shipping fee, which is 75 USD to the Czech Republic, we get to around 2200 CZKUnfortunately, this is a situation where the shipping is more expensive than the product itself.
mStand is also offered by Czech retailers, here we are starting to talk about a price of around 2700 CZKWhat more can I say, a beautiful piece of accessory, unfortunately the price is quite high.
