No matter how careful you are, you will drop your tablet one way or another. And when that happens, you will be thankful for the protective casing around your precious device. If you are going to be running around with your tablet a lot, you might want to invest in a hard plastic case for longer durability.

2) Screen protector

With the Gorilla Glass technology, touchscreen devices are not as susceptible to scratches as they once were. That said, users have regretted their decision to not use a screen protector as soon as they get their first scratch on their devices…so it is better be safe than sorry. Besides, screen protectors can also be anti-glare or anti-fingerprints, which some users might find useful.

 

3) Portable battery pack

If you are always on the go, you might want to consider getting a portable battery pack. Be sure to get a battery pack that can contain enough juice to fully charge your tablet once or twice.

 

4) External memory storage

Having some extra memory space is always welcome, especially if you rely heavily on your tablet for work. External memory drives are also great for backing up the files on your tablet. For convenience’s sake, you might want to consider getting external memory drives that can be accessed wirelessly.

5) Tablet keyboard

For people who use their tablets for work, a portable keyboard certainly will come in very handy when they need to edit text documents. Some tablet keyboards comes with a dock, while others are connected via Bluetooth. There are even tablet casings that come with a built-in keyboard, so be sure to look around for one that suits your needs.

6) Bluetooth speakers

Because the small built-in speakers just doesn’t cut it when you want to listen to a masterpiece like Beethoven’s Symphony no. 5, or say, LMFAO’s Party Rock Anthem.

7) Tablet stand

Not all users will find this necessary. Still, if you like to watch movies on your tablet or use it to refer to recipes while cooking, a stand will come in useful. There are some protective casings that doubles up as a stand, so you might want to get that instead and kill two birds with one stone.
