Twelve South’s new Curve Flex stand for MacBooks is perfect for a dual screen setup.

The new TwelveSouth MacBook stand is height and tilt adjustable, elevating the laptop screen and camera up to 22 inches, ideal for dual screen setups.

Apple premium accessories maker Twelve South has been offering Curve stands for Apple laptops for a long time. But not everyone likes fixed-height laptop stands.

I, for one, prefer laptop stands that raise my 15-inch MacBook Pro to eye level so I can work ergonomically at my desk without having to use stacks of magazines to raise the machine to a more comfortable viewing height.

Meet Curve Flex, the all-in-one stand for your MacBook

The new Curve Flex eliminates these shortcomings, allowing you to increase the height of the computer up to 22 inches or about 56 centimeters. At a height of half a meter, you do not have to stare at the screen, which is bad for your posture.

Twelve South explains how Curve Flex works with different Mac laptops:

When fully deployed, the top of the Curve Flex stand is 11 inches high. But when a 16-inch MacBook Pro is placed on top of it, the top of its screen and, more importantly, its webcam are 22 inches away from the table. The MacBook Air’s webcam is 19 inches from the table, while the 14-inch MacBook Pro’s webcam is 20 inches high. If this is too high, remember that Curve Flex can adjust it to whatever height is most comfortable for you.

If you have a dual screen setup, Curve Flex is perfect for you.

Great for a dual monitor setup

On paper, this stand can make the bottom of my MacBook Pro screen the same height as the bottom of my external 27″Apple Thunderbolt display. This is important to me because aligning the two monitors allows for more natural cursor movement across the combined screen space.

The stand is a natural choice for those who use their laptops in clamshell mode, and the MacBook screen acts as an extension of their primary external display.

Wow, it folds straight!

When folded, the stand is only two inches, or about five centimeters, allowing it to act as a wedge for the seal. And because it folds, the Curve Flex is extremely portable—no one wants to lug around a laptop stand that sticks 11 inches in the air (Twelve South includes a padded neoprene travel case with your Curve Flex for that purpose).

Curve Flex is not only height adjustable, but also allows you to tilt your laptop up to 45 degrees. If you don’t have an external keyboard, you’ll appreciate the ability to adjust the angle for comfortable typing.

So, if you need a laptop stand for your home office or work, Curve Flex is a great option. Read: Internet not working on your Mac? Here’s how to fix it
