If you fold the keyboard back while it is still in the case and use the tablet, does the keyboard become detached?

No, the case becomes two separate pieces when you have the tablet open... One that is on the tablet, one that is on the keyboard. So you Can flip it back. I just recommend a bit of Velcro to actually attach the tablet section of the case to the tablet, as it pops off or gets misaligned with the camera if you just look at it funny otherwise.

Yes you can! The strap of the case only secures the tablet itself. But the keyboard is definitely removable without having to remove the case.

Yes. While the case is folded shut you can't use anything because the shell protects the iPad and the keyboard, but when you fold it open the touch screen is unimpeded.

I don't use the keyboard. Case works find with or without keyboard. It will not come out, it has security straps on each corner.

I wouldn't describe it as securely attached to the case when folded back. It's liable to pop off in that configuration and it isn't comfortable to hold in that setup. I actually don't recommend this keyboard/case combo. There are much better bluetooth keyboards out there (this keyboard is cramped and laid out really weird) and the case looks cheap. There are lots of other cases available and folding bluetooth keyboards offer a vastly superior typing experience.

Yes. The keyboard attaches to the case by magnate, so it doesn't fall off. The case can be easily used with or without the keyboard. It closes securely either way.

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

Keyboard is usefull when doing heavy typing, notes, pages, etc. Remove keyboard from tablet when doing anything other than typing. You can only fold the keyboard with your tablet attached in close positon.

No, it does not come with a keyboard, and my keyboard will only fit in the case when the case is open, you can't fold it closed and carry it with the keyboard attached. I don't use the case anymore because of this.

No the keyboard is attached to the case.it will not come off. Hope this helps.

No, but you CAN remove the tablet from the keyboard/case, and then you can definitely used the keyboard at a distance from the tablet and still have a functioning system.

Yes, it does quite nicely. There is an opening in the case so that way you can attach andd unattach the keyboard with no problem

Yes, it closes perfectly with the keyboard attached. No need to detach it at all.

Yes, it will fold completely flat against the keyboard. This is a big improvement over the previous version of this, because the previous version had a hinge, so you could never lay the tablet completely flat.

Yes, the way this product is designed, the keyboard will be inside when the case is cased. But I actually took the keyboard out and use it with a different cover. So you can also carry the keyboard separately or move it farther away from the case, if that works for you.

If I understand you right, you basically want to know if the keyboard will stay attached and folded with the case closed. The answer is yes. You can keep it attached and folded up with the case closed.Edit:I misunderstood. The person below me is right. There is an elastic band that will hold the keyboard in place. The second to the last picture shows it with the keyboard folded and held with the elastic strap.This is a great case and I recommend it. Only issue is that the pen doesn't connect to the tablet magnetically anymore, but there is a clip on the pen and you can clip it to the case.

The case will not fold flat the way I feel that you are describing. In my opinion, this case is only useful in the horizontal stand position. If you just needed a keyboard extension and stand, it's really great. :)
