Can the cover be folded back under the iPad without straining the leather?

I fold it back all the time and have had no problem. But, I've only had mine a short time.

Yes - keep in mind it shows a picture of a loop for a pen but mine didn't have it -

yes, the outside leather is supple and the dimensions are pretty good, there is no stretch from either folding it back nor using it in the stand position... :)

Absolutely! It's fairly thick leather and there is no strain on it so I don't foresee any problems although over time as leather dries out it's probably good to treat it to keep it supple.

After about a month, there is no strain on the leather. I doubt very much if there will be. The seam at the fold takes the bending very well and remains in excellent condition. I use my iPad about 6-8 hours daily. This cover has done a wonderful job protecting the iPad and adding a professional, yet stylish look to it. Highly recommend.

Yes, the cover can be folded back without straining the leather. It fits perfectly and looks GREAT!

Yes. With or without the keyboard, the cover folds flat. Make sure you turn it off first or you will get interesting results.

Hello MLN,I prefer not to fold it and cover my back leather seats with it. But, I have folded it before. I grab the shade by the sides just above the darker material and criss cross it. One hand goes in my direction and the other hand away from my body. Hope this helps.

No, the iPad snaps into the back piece, but when folded -the keyboard piece will close into the screen for protection

No. There is leather all around it & then velcro on the side that folds. I wish there wasn't so much leather around it because it make it a challenge to use your swipe down. I still would recommend.

The cover folds back but does not work as an easle at all (in any orientation). I do miss being able to stand my reader on a table for hands free reading as I can do with another reader in a different case.

You can fold the case cover under and hold it with the elastic band but the Microsoft keyboard was not designed for that. You would have to detach it and set it aside.

Yep. You can fold it flat behind, roll it to stand the iPad up more vertically or just prop it up to type on the screen.

Yes, it folds back, but I would not advise using it in that manner as the keyboard keys would be exposed and it would not be very comfortable to hold. In your case I would simply remove the iPad from the case completely, which is very easy to do with this model, unlike the prior version I owned. I take it our of the case when I am using the iPad as a reader.

Yes, the front cover can be folded all the way behind the iPad. You cAn even use the little magnetic tab to hold it in place

You can fold the ipad over the keyboard. It does put the ipad kind of in a slightly awkward position but its not bad.

My guess is yes, the zipper would close, but it would probably bulge...and unless you have one of the magnetic folding covers from Apple, you would have to put the keyboard under the iPad vs on top.

I have one of those silicone covers that protects the back and it fits fine. If you have one of those mag cases (i.e. the $40 Apple version or comparable knock-off) it would probably work anything that folds back however would probably not work.

Yes, you can bend the cover all the way around, however, after time doing that will wear at the spine. The case is designed to wear like a good used hardcover book.. but over bending may cause wear much sooner. The magnetic feature does control the on/off.Hope that helps

I suppose you probably could. It opens like a book and the left side of the cover can be easily folded back. Personally, I've not used it that way. The side that folds back has a soft, wide band that you can slip your hand through to hold the kindle--like when you read in bed. I'm not good at explaining/describing, but I hope that helps. It's a great product. I'm glad I chose this one.

Yes you can. If you fold the keyboard portion around, it covers the back. If you hold the whole thing up like an open book then it is not covered. While it maybe slightly awkward, I haven't found it problematic.
