No. This is one of the issues I had with it, so I decided to switch to the Apple smart cover.

I just bought the quilted case at target for my iPad mini 3, and it DOES have the close/sleep feature.

I wondered the same thing when I bought it. I was disappointed to find that it does not put the iPad in sleep mode. But other models similar to it do.

Yes, my ipad too does not hibernate when this case is closed. I always press the sleep button before closing it.

No it does not. It has a thin clear layer that covers the screen for protection, but does not have a solid cover that can close and cover the screen which would trigger the sleep/wake function.

Holder does not but if you go into Settings/General/auto lock on your iPad you can set how long you want it to stay on before it goes to sleep.

No, it does not have the magnetic cover that would put the iPad to sleep. Its design covers the back and edges only, not the front. To put the iPad to sleep you have to push the power button.

Yes, the cover has a magnetic (not visible) closure. If you have not completely turned the power off, the kindle will turn on as you open the cover and will turn off (to sleep mode) when you close it.

I bought this case for my step-son as a Christmas gift. When the flap is closed your ipad automatically goes to sleep so the power will "drain" very, very slowly if at all. I haven't heard any complaints from him as yet.

When the auto lock feature on the iPad is enabled, the iPad will auto lock (basically turn the background light off/on) when the devicewear cover is closed/opened).

It goes to sleep when you close the cover, and wake up when you open the cover. Hope that helps!

Yes, it has the feature. My case does auto sleep/wake on my iPad2. Bought mine in Aug from Amazon.

No. It is an open faced case so you must use your iPad settings or butto n to shut it off.

When you close the cover it goes to sleep mode but is easily awakened so that is good as you are not using Juice..:)

no, it doesn't turn off when you close the pad. The power button is accessible in top of smart cover.

It does not turn off when separated (disconnected) from the ipad. It does go asleep after a period of non use.

Yes it puts it into sleep mode. Make sure you buy cover they supports this function. Haven't noticed any significant battery life reduction in this mode.

I unfortunately have the same problem. I ran a magnet over the entire case and there is not a magnet in the case anywhere (that's what is needed to put the iPad into sleep mode when closed). You could always send it back as it is defective.

Nothing. It doesn't turn off the tablet when you close the case or turn it on when you open the case like apple smart cover does for the ipad
