Ontario, CA, Sept. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Recognition highlights inateck’s focus on lightweight, intelligent productivity accessories for work, study, and creation.
inateck AceTouch Pro Keyboard Case has won the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2026 in the Tablet Keyboard category, with the jury citing its “high degree of customisability and a wide range of usage scenarios.”
inateck, a brand specializing in lightweight, intelligent productivity accessories, built the product around user-centric design, which balances portability, functionality, and versatility for iPad users.
The Red Dot Award is one of the world’s most prestigious design competitions, evaluating products on design quality, innovation, functionality, and user experience. For inateck, this recognition marks a significant milestone in its mission to create accessories that integrate seamlessly into the evolving ways people work, study, and create.
Designed for the Way People Work Today
The inateck AceTouch Pro Keyboard Case combines iPad protection with a full-featured keyboard, while retaining the flexibility to adapt to different scenarios. Its magnetic detachable mechanism lets users separate the keyboard from the protective cover in one simple motion—switching between a full typing setup and a slim tablet experience without removing the iPad from its case. A flexible kickstand offers adjustable viewing angles, supporting tasks from typing and reading to sketching and video calls. The built-in trackpad supports all iPadOS gestures, delivering a familiar laptop-like interaction.
Portability remains a core pillar: the keyboard case stays lightweight and easy to carry, empowering users to take their workspace anywhere—from a classroom to a library, from a café to a train seat.
These insights shaped the AceTouch Pro design: combining protection, typing, cursor control, and adjustable positioning into one portable solution. It embodies the core promise of the AceTouch series: “Work. Study. Create.. One Keyboard Case.”

Together, these products support every stage of daily productivity—from work and creation to organizing and transporting the tech users rely on.
Inspiration on the Go
inateck’s product development is guided by a simple philosophy: “We create lightweight, intelligent productivity accessories that make work, study, and creation feel effortless.”
This vision ties closely to the brand tagline: “Inspiration on the Go.” For inateck, inspiration does not belong to a fixed place. Ideas emerge at a desk, in a classroom, during commutes, in cafés, or while travelling. Technology should empower these moments—not create extra hassle.
The AceTouch Pro Keyboard Case illustrates this approach: multiple functions packed into one portable accessory, adaptable to different situations.
Looking Ahead
The Red Dot Award 2026 is another milestone in inateck’s product development journey, reinforcing the value of design in its tech accessory strategy. Moving forward, inateck will continue exploring how lightweight, intelligent design can make everyday technology simpler to use and easier to carry.
The goal is not merely to launch more accessories, but to build products that naturally fit into the lives of people who work, study, and create wherever they go.
Great technology should never draw attention to itself. It works quietly in the background, helping users switch between tasks with minimal friction. That is the spirit behind “Inspiration on the Go”—and the north star guiding inateck’s development of productivity accessories.
