Sunset for iPad Air
The round, Alcantara-lined Sunset, for the 10.9-inch and 11-inch iPad Air.
Everything you need to know
The Air cut of Sunset, the showpiece of the Displine range. CNC machined and anodised in a round shape flush with the tablet, with a replaceable Alcantara inlay on the face that can be matched to the room it hangs in. The frame is open so the iPad lifts out, and charging runs through an integrated USB-C port.
Product features
Award-winning, and not by our own reckoning
This is the best-designed tablet mount you can put on a wall, and the people who said so are not us. It took a German Design Award in 2025 for Excellent Product Design, judged by the German Design Council against industrial design from every field in Germany. Most of the category is a bracket. This is not.
Cut from a solid block of aluminium
Most tablet mounts are moulded plastic or folded sheet metal. Displine machine theirs from a solid block of aluminium, then anodise or powder coat the surface. It is a slower and more expensive way to build a wall mount, and it is what you are paying for: a frame with the weight and the finish of the tablet it holds.
The iPad rests on Alcantara, not aluminium
The face of the mount is lined with an Alcantara inlay, the suede-like microfibre used in car interiors, so the aluminium never touches the back of the iPad. It stops the scratching you would otherwise get from sliding a tablet in and out every day, and it changes how the thing feels to use. The inlay lifts out and can be swapped for another colour. One is included: natural with the gold finish, grey with black, titanium and rose gold.
Charge it through the mount
The mount carries the charging cable itself, so the iPad charges while it hangs on the wall and nothing drapes down the plaster. Run it to a nearby socket, or fit the flush-mounted supply behind the mount and no cable shows at all. A tablet that lives on a wall is only worth having if it is charged.
Lift the iPad out with one hand
One side of the frame is open, so the iPad slides in and lifts out without unclipping anything. That is the difference between a mount you take the tablet off daily and one you fit and forget. Nothing locks, which is the trade: this is a mount for a home, not a shopfront.
For the iPad Air, and the older 11-inch Pro
This Sunset is machined for the iPad Air 10.9-inch (4th and 5th generation) and the iPad Air 11-inch (2024 onwards). The same body also takes the iPad Pro 11-inch from the 1st to 4th generation, so if that is the iPad you have, this is the Sunset you want rather than the one labelled Pro. Three finishes: gold, black and titanium, all anodised.
Four screws and a wall plate
Screws and plugs are in the box. The wall plate goes up first, the mount screws onto it, and the whole job is a drill and a spirit level. If you are running power behind the wall, do that part before the plate goes on.

Compare Displine mounts
Displine make three lines of iPad wall mount, and two of those lines also come in a Home version. Almost all of the difference is in the frame, so here is each one with the iPad taken out.
The five mounts
All five hold the iPad flat against the wall and keep it charged while it is up there. The difference that matters most is whether the iPad stays in the mount or comes out of it. Companion Wall and Dame Wall close around the tablet and hold it there, with a screw lock if you want it secured against theft. The two Home versions are open, so you can lift the iPad out and put it back through the day, and Dame Wall Home has the rotation unit built in. Beyond that it is materials: Companion is powder coated and the least expensive of the three lines, Dame is milled from a block of aluminium and anodised with a replaceable Alcantara inlay, and Sunset is the same anodised aluminium and Alcantara in a round housing that looks nothing like a standard rectangular wall mount.
