I read a review that described it being difficult to charge the tablet when it is in the case, is this true? If so, can you describe very precisely?

It's not difficult to charge it, it's just that you cannot have the case closed or the tablet angled up and charging at the same time. The tablet has to be laying on top on the keyboard to charge. Quite honestly, the keyboard goes a very long time without needing a charge.

When my tablet is in the case an have to charge the battery I have to lay is open an charge it. I do not find it difficult .

You can't use the keyboard when charging the tablet. You have to pull the tablet forward and lay it on the keyboard to charge it. But there is nothing blocking the charging port after you've laid the tablet down.

The port to charge the tablet is on the bottom edge, which is also where the fold in the folio cover is. In order to charge you have to either lay it out flat, or fold the keyboard under the tablet in order to access the charging port. All the manufacturer needed to do was put a reinforced opening in the port location on the cover and it could be charged in the closed position. One could possibly cut their own opening in the cover, but that would probably negate any warranty coverage and could possibly weaken the folding hinge of the cover.

if you turn the tablet so that the port is on top then you can charge it while it's in the stand. the tablet can rotate in the stand.

I have this case & LOVE it! I have to slide my keyboard a little bit to get charger plugged in but I do not have to remove it entirely! It's really not that big a deal! And it works a very long time between charges which is great!Hope this helps!

the case was purchased for our Samsung galaxy note 8.o the model number is not the same as the one you gave. it did not come with a charger but charges with a cell phone charger. and yes you can charge the tablet while it's in the case.

It does interfere with a solid connection for charging. I also have the LG round charging pad. When i first set the phone (in the case) on the charger it kept going on and off charge, and would not stay charging. But removing the case is easy, as is putting it back on. In fact, since I put the rectangular magnet on the inside of the hard part of the Incipio case, I've found that putting the phone in the rubber portion of the case first, then putting it in the hard shell I get a better, easier fit.

Most but you can't charge it while case is on and case is hard to take on and off.

You have to hold it. Then it should charge. If not try charging the case. Still not working return it for a refund

The Tablet can be charged while the cover is on, but it cannot be charged while it is being used as a stand, because it rests on the charger slot. Nevertheless I can charge it as a stand with the Samsung Universal Desktop Charging Dock for 10.1 inch Samsung Galaxy Note, with this cover still on, since it is Slim enough to fit in the dock.

I charge mine when using it. It just takes longer. If Im going to leave it sit for a bit I usually just turn off the screen. My tablet is 3 years old and I have always done this. I hope this helps you.

the weight is almost half of the tablet... very slim... you can charge it without opening the cover... you cannot charge it while in standing mode because the port is at the bottom... But its a great product... I would recommend it.

Yes. When the Tablet is connected to the Dock the Tablet is charged by the Dock and the Dock is charged by the Power cord. I often recharge the Dock and Tablet with it close. The charging port is on the side that is exposed. I did not connect the strap on that one side because it sort of blocked the port enough to bother me but that will not affect its security in the case.

No the case does not securely hold the tablet. One must be careful when using it.

Yes, I have one. When you insert the tablet, you have to push hard to make the connection. It does charge nicely.

Yes it charges while using it, as long as you are using the higher power charger style that originally came with the Tablet, the lower power chargers just barely keep up with usage, and show a red X on the Battery indicator. small chargers still charges but at a slower rate.

Yes, I have not had a problem. the charging port on my phone is on the bottom, but you shouldn't have a problem wherever your charging port is located. the only problem I have found is weaving the charging cord through the hands, but that really doesn't bother me. I hope this helps you to make your decision.

The USB plug doesn't leave much room for a case on the tablet. This dock seems to be cut and fit almost exactly to fit the tablet only, I don't see having room to fit snugly on the USB port to get a charge.

Is does the phone charge when you have the extra battery attached to it? I have a problem where if I only had the case attached I had to position it onto the base properly in order to get it to charge. And sometimes I had to wiggle the little copper piece and set it back on the base in order to get it to charge. I found that when I would wiggle the copper piece and pull it towards the front phone charge better. But it ultimately became pretty frustrating.
