Can the smart cover be removed, while leaving the back case in place)?

Actually not, and it is what I like about this one. Bc in the removable the magnet is very weak and easy to take it off. I almost dropped a friend iPad thinking it was as sturdy as mine. But removing the cover will take you just a few secs when you lift the corners of the case itself.

No you don't have to remove back cover all though you do have to fold cover back and hold all the way around being it's a stand as well or phone will fall

Yes, you can still use the keyboard as a keyboard without a smart cover, you just don't have the ability to store the keyboard with your smart cover.

Yes a smart case covers both front and back. A Smart Cover covers only the front.

There is a zipper on it so I believe you can remove the cover. I have yet to try to remove it as I have a cover over it of my own

Not at all. First, you carefully snap the back case on your iPad, then place the metal part of the Smart Cover in the slots on the left side. Hope this helps!

Yes it can be removed. This case let's in a lot of dust/dirt. Kinda cheap but you get what you pay for.

You don't need it. It has it's own magnetically active cover. I took the Smart Cover off when I put it in the Solo case; very pleased with the case. Excellent quality. Just what I was looking for.

Yes, you can leave the bottom of the case screwed on. You can unsnap the top easily and let it flop. Also, you can completely unsnap the top from the bottom of the case so that the flopping cover won't be a distraction.

Thank you for your question. You do not have to remove the back cover of the S5 to use this case.

You have to put on the smart cover first, and then put on the back case. Because the case also protects part of the cover.

In theory, you probably could. But without the original back cover, there might be a small gap in between the case and the area of the original back cover. If the original back cover just has a scratch or crack in it, the case should prevent anymore damage to the back cover. Hope this helps.

I keep the smart cover on and have no problem with the stand but anything thicker than that may need to be removed.

Yes you can, it has perfect cutouts for smart covers, it does come with a hard plastic cover for protecting the screen for transit, but the drawback is what do with the cover or where do you put it when not in use? A smart cover is the perfect solution.

It is relatively easy to remove, although not repeatedly. The "band" broke after I repeatedly (around a dozen times) removed the cover. I did so because the audio and charging cords I have were too large to insert. I am currently using it with only the black, flexible portion of the cover.

Yes. The description says you can and you can. The cover is a little more maleable than you miGht think but it is smart cover compatible.

You can leave the cover connected, but it is a little awkward. I usually quickly detach the cover to use the mini without putting it in the slot. The case connects magnetically so it's super easy to connect and reconnect.
