Hi, does the front flap of this case fold behind it flat for reading and does the magnet hold it in that position?

the flap does not fold completely flat. the flap has a crease about an inch and a half in from the spine. when folded back, the spine also folds back. So there is an angle from the spine down to the crease. As a result about 2/3 of the flap folds flat. If you're right handed it's basically flat. If you're left handed, there's like a half inch extra thickness as it angles down from the folded back spine. The magnets do nothing to hold the flap when folded back. They only hold the flap when closed. The also trigger the auto sleep mode when closed. Not the best case if you're concerned about bulk but your tablet definitely won't fall out. Holds it very sung for sure.

The front cover does fold to form a triangular base. The leading edge of the fold is tucked into a flap sewn on the back cover. Works well as a reading stand. I think the two magnets sewn into the folio help keep the cover closed.

When the front flap is folded back it is almost flat against the back. The magnet does not hold it in that position. The front flap is actually longer due to the thickness of the Nexus 7

The cover is held magnetically when it is closed on the screen. However, if you peel it back from the screen it flaps free even if you pull it all the way behind. This is a really beautiful and sturdy case.

Hi, Sorry there are very limited pictures on Amazon of this product. This ASIN; B00117SWA6 will show the front/back and semi-clear magnetic flap. You can paste that ASIN into any Amazon Search Bar to bring up the listing. Thanks,

Yes the flap does fold back, and no it does not interfere at all with typing ability. This is a really nice case at a fabulous price.

The case folds back and the magnetic flap sticks to the case, holding it in place. It's not a problem to talk with the case.

It doesn't fold like that in the standard position (home button on the same side as the on/off switch) but but you can flip your ipad then reconnect the magnetic bar and it will fold behind the ipad just fine.

magnetic flap fold backwards but does not stick. Yes, beneath the card pockets there is plenty of space. I keep receipts, contacts cards, even a spare house key. Although if it is too bulky then it is not slim and the magnet doesn't hold. This is the second one I ordered. (first one fell in the toilet). I LOVE it.

No it does not. It will fold all the way back, but not quite flat and I don't think that is good for the spine of the cover. Don't let it stop you though from buying a really cool device.

Yes. The section the reader stands on in easel configuration folds backward and lies flat against the back of the reader if you don't need to use the stand. I read as much with it that way as using the stand.

Yes, the entire outer art of the flap has a strong magnet which securely keeps the case closed. The magnet will also hold the case folded to the back when you fold the two outer movable parts back on each other behind the phone for easy holding and texting. The case is secure and protective with the strong flap magnet.

Hello Michelle. When the flap is opened, there are magnets that keep it in place, and I absolutely love it. I purchased two, one purple, that came with a stylus, and this black one. There is no elastic strap to wrap around the cover to keep it in place. I don't believe you would be disappointed with this purchase. Hope this helps.

Yes. Folds very smoothly. The piece connecting front and back is very pliable. The reader is just a little thick for the case. Stills closes okay with magnetic closure.

Yes- you can fold it flat like a notepad You can also stand it up - which is how I use it when I am doing something but also need to read off my ipad. I love it and I have tried several cases.

It folds completely flat if you are going to hold it to read. You can also use it hands free since it has ribbing to brace it.

Not sure what you mean, but no. It "stands" as in picture in slots. To fold the cover all the way back, it is a bit thick-you can turn the ipad upside down then. The case has a magnetic closure. 9wzpnd110xsttjw@marketplace.amazon.com

Sorry, but mine is NOT magnetic. It's just the flap folding over into a flat loop on the back.

Yes. I fold the front back flat against the backside of the cover when I am using my iPad.
