For that there's the Sensu Artist Brush and Stylus, which, as the name suggests, has a brush, making it ideal for digital artists.</p><p>There's a stylus too if you want to sketch and in a pinch you can even write with it, though not with as much precision as the Apple Pencil. Still, it's far cheaper and much better for the artistically-inclined.</p><h3>STM Atlas case</h3><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/Features%202/Best%20iPad%20Pro%20accessories/STM%20case-420-90.jpg" alt="STM case" width="420"></img></p><p><strong>Colors:</strong> Charcoal, Denim, Red | <a href="http://www.stmbags.com/atlas-ipad-pro-case.html" rel="nofollow">Official site</a></p><div class="hawk-widget-insert _hawk widget_type:price model_names:STM%20Atlas%20case "><p>STM Atlas case</p></div><p>If you just want a little protection for your tablet the STM Atlas case will get the job done. An understated slimline fabric design keeps it looking classy and ensures it doesn't bulk up whatever bag you chuck your iPad into.</p><p>It also folds out into a stand, with a hinge allowing you to adjust the landscape angle for comfortable typing or viewing, and there's a slot for the expensive but easily lost Apple Pencil.</p><p>With a magnetic closure as well, to ensure the screen is always off when the case is shut and on as soon as you open it, this is a well thought out case and an essential addition to any unprotected iPad.</p><h3>Logitech Create keyboard</h3><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/Features%202/Best%20iPad%20Pro%20accessories/Logitech%20Create-420-90.jpg" alt="Logitech Create" width="420"></img></p><p><strong>Colors:</strong> Black, Red/Gold, Black/Space Gray, Blue/Silver | <a href="http://www.logitech.com/en-gb/product/create-ipad-pro-keyboard" rel="nofollow">Official site</a></p><div class="hawk-widget-insert _hawk widget_type:price model_names:Logitech%20Create%20keyboard "><p>Logitech Create keyboard</p></div><p>If you want to use your iPad Pro as a laptop replacement, then a keyboard is an essential accessory and while the official Smart Keyboard is a strong option the Logitech Create is a great alternative.</p><p>In fact, in many ways it tops Apple's terminal, with a full protective case ensuring the back of your iPad Pro stays protected and backlit keys so you can type in the dark. It's also cheaper than the Smart Keyboard.</p><p>On the flip side it adds quite a lot more weight and thickness to your slate, but a palm rest at the bottom makes it comfortable to type on and nicely spaced keys ensure you can do so quickly and accurately. Which, if you're typing a lot, is really the most important thing.</p><p>Currently this is only available for the iPad Pro 12.9, but we're hoping Logitech sees sense and brings this out for the smaller version soon.</p><h3>Gamevice controller</h3><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/Features%202/Best%20iPad%20Pro%20accessories/Gamevice-420-90.jpg" alt="Gamevice" width="420"></img></p><p><strong>Color:</strong> Black | <a href="http://www.gamevice.com/products-and-accessories/gamevice-for-ipad/" rel="nofollow">Official site</a></p><div class="hawk-widget-insert _hawk widget_type:price model_names:Gamevice%20controller "><p>Gamevice controller</p></div><p>All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, but you can avoid that fate by investing in a Gamevice controller and making the most of all the power tucked away in your iPad Pro.</p><p>Sadly, this currently only fits the <a href="http://www.techradar.com/reviews/pc-mac/tablets/ipad-pro-9-7-1317466/review">iPad Pro 9.7</a> (although happily a 12.9-inch version is on the way) and if you're using Apple's smaller flagship you can slot it into the Gamevice to provide hardware controls, including thumbsticks, a D-pad, triggers and other buttons.</p><p>If you've ever tried to play a first person shooter with a touchscreen you'll know what a difference this can make and if you're serious about your games this is near essential.</p><h3>Logitech Base charging stand</h3><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/art/Features%202/Best%20iPad%20Pro%20accessories/Logitech%20Base-420-90.jpg" alt="Logitech Base" width="420"></img></p><p><strong>Color: </strong>Silver | <a href="http://www.logitech.com/en-gb/product/base-ipad-pro-stand" rel="nofollow">Official site</a></p><div class="hawk-widget-insert _hawk widget_type:price model_names:Logitech%20Base%20charging%20stand "><p>Logitech Base charging stand</p></div><p>The Smart Connector is a smart idea, but for the most part it's only used for keyboards.
