I know the stand does not allow for it, but can somone that has this tell me if it can be put into portrait mode or not? Thank you.

If you are talking about rotating the screen via video card or software, yes., it works. You will have to lean the monitor against something (e.g. Wall).

Unfortunatly, no. :( It will just stand horizontally.Well, I guess you kind of can, but it does lean back pretty far and is kind of wobbly - like a 45 degree angle. I would like to Facetime with it vertical, but it leans back just too far to do that.

Yes, it works by friction, moving into divots that hold it in either portrait or landscape mode. Unfortunately on mine it doesn't stay in portrait mode and spins to landscape mode. Not sure if the newer ones have been improved, supposedly they have fixed the problem (from reading the reviews).

That depends on your device. You can position the device either in vertical or landscape and position the stand at any angle. I love this stand and highly recommend it.

you need to get a VESA mount that could do it, this monitor has vesa mount holes on the back. the stock stand will not rotate the monitor.

Yes you can kickstand it for a portrait view. Sorry no only one "positon" on the stand. it is a great "protector" and very happy with it. no regrets.

Yes and No. You can install ''almost'' anything (not everything) that runs in portrait mode, you would just have to tilt the pc up into portrait mode. It has no G-sensor, so it doesn't know which way its facing. I have had some programs, that run in portrait mode, that wouldn't even install. And since the kickstand will only hold the pc up in Landscape mode, you'll have that to deal with. I hope this helps.

Landscape works beautifully with this case, but it is not really portrait friendly. I am delighted with the case, as I rarely have a reason to use the portrait position.

If you are using the camera in the landscape mode, can't you just let the cover hang loose and still be able to take a picture? How does the cover fold if you wanted to take a pic in portrait mode?

I guess you would have to take the table out in order to set in portrait position but I never really find a need to do this. I like this case. It works well for my purposes. I like to read in bed which this case is well suited for due to the hand strap. Very compact too.

Nancy, I wouldn't trust it to handle an iPad in portrait position. It has a release system that allows the user to remove the iPad holding assembly from the arm and gravity holds it in place. It simply involves pegs sliding into slots and then pushing it down to the bottom of the slot. While it works perfectly for landscape positioning, it might be tempted to slip out of the slots as gravity might work against it at the wrong angle.In summary, no, I would not recommend holding a precious iPad in portrait mode with this unit.

Yes it will stand in a portrait position so you can set it down and view; but it is not really stable enough to push the iPad unless you hold the iPad with your other hand.

Yes the stand allows for the display to be raised 9 1/2 inches from the base which in turn allows it to rotate into portrait mode.

Not specifically, I mean you can set up the stand and put it up-down, though then its not at an angle. What I prefer though is the hand hold, there is the elastic hand strap that I end up using all the time to comfortably use it to rest in my hand in the portrait mode.

You can do both however your phone has to be in a portrait layout. Meani it has to stand straight up. So any game that is played in landscape mode wont really be able to play while plugged in. Hope this answers your question.

It doesn't have that feature built in to the stand, but I often turn mine, adjusting the angle. Due to the circle base, it seems to move (or pivot) rather easily. I only turn about 45 degrees or less usually. I've had mine for a year now and really like it. Since I enjoy Japanese manga and various graphic novels, the ability to rotate the screen from landscape to portrait mode is very handy. That feature is built into it, unlike pivoting it so it faces a different direction.

No portrait mode stand, but when you hold it open, its like holding an open book. I can hold it that way and read, or I just use the hand strap.
