Can you use this case without using the front flap??

No, the front flap is linked firmly to the case, you cannot release it. But you can fold it and use the phone. Often I use the flap to hold the phone during photo sessions.

The flap is not removable, if that's what you mean. And it doesn't bend all the way back around since the case is so thick. But you can talk on the phone with the flap shut.

No you can not, there would be nothing to hold the front cover on, but the back is thin clear. They must be used together

No you can not talk with the flap closed. I am also noticing that the magnet area is starting to wear out and feel it will soon tear. Today also I tried to remove my phone from the case because I noticed that the sound was not working properly after I removed it the sound improved. Once my favorite case is soon becoming something I would not recommend.

Yes! The case is two pieces (one for the top, one for the bottom). You can definitely only use one of the two.

Absolutely yes. Of course you have to open the case but you do not have to detach the front part at all. I do it frequently.

Nop... you cant but it is not a problem at all... the main problem with this case (although I love it) is that it is rally hard to pack. Good luck

Yes. You can carefully take the flap off. You can also fold the flap under the moving top flap, this way you wont have to remove anything off. here is how you can do it:1. See the grey part of the top in the picture ? with kind of 'x' shaped filter in it ? it swings up.2. The front flap can completely fold in on to the inside of the top flap.3. Then you lower the top flap back to its original position. it will hold the front flap opened under it. I am assuming you don't care about the filter, since you are willing to keep the front flap open. Hope this helps ! Its a good buy. Yes. You can carefully take the flap off.

I dont think you can. Ive got this case and there is no extra room in the back. Hope this helps.

It does flap free. There are no magnets on the back side of the case. It is an extremely nice case. I've had several compliments.

There IS MOST DEFINITELY a tab that pops out -- I just did it. It exposes the speakers and the lightning charging cable port. Its not a "flap" however and while you could put it back its not a one-two step. And by removing the tab I would guess you compromise the waterproof nature of the case

Sadly, no. It has zipper for pockets at front, but it's covered by the flap anyway

I have the flat keyboard and yes, you can definitely use the case without the keyboard. the cover of the case folds into a kickstand for the surface.

Yes. I use it without a case and its a perfect fit. I've never tried it with a case though.

The case does not have any protector for the front. So you touch the screen or can add a separate screen protector.

Hi! Yes. The front flap you see in the pic can be zipped close, though we have not had it zipped close while we are on the beach with it. Hope that helps!
