Does the case have a real hinge or is it just flex plastic? Does it have metal locking clips on front?

It's a hinge and the clips are plastic. I've had it for a few years now and it's been good to me. No problem at all and I use it almost every day

The hinge is flex plastic and it does have a locking clip, but that's plastic too.

The belt clip hinge opens and has two movable clips. I did need to go to you tube to open the hinge. Hope this helps.

No problems with the hinge for us. My son uses his ipad daily and is kind of hard on things (autistic) it has held up, we've had it about 6 months.

There is a large plastic hinge in the back where the lid connects, but it is very sturdy. There are also two little metal hinges on both sides on the inside.

This case is mostly metal, or very hard plastic. I could kick and drop this case with no worries.

The hinge is the same sturdy plastic as the rest of the box. It is molded across the full width of the box, and seems quite adequate to me. I have my box full of ammo and with the full width hinge on one end, and the full width double latch on the other, it inspires confidence when carrying. As I mentioned in my review, the lid doesn't flex when carrying it full of ammo.

No. Its not metal or plastic. I think it must be some rubber or silicone compound. It's flexible but provides excellent protection. The case is still on my phone right now. I love it!!

It's a plastic and rubber piece that acts as a hinge. Even though it doesn't sound well made,it actually is quite nice.

It is flexible. Not a hard stiff plastic. Fits perfectly. Not loose at all. Not rubbery like some Otter Box cases.

It does have a spring type clip for the locking feature to answer part of your question

It is plastic but it is rigid. I am satisfied with the protection it offers.

Yes it is all metal with plastic wire clips. I mounted mine on a stand that sits between two recliners and it can swing over to either chair. When I want to get up I just swing it out of the way. It is very heavy and sturdy, also the holes in the plate allow my laptop to stay cool no matter how long I am on it...and I am on it a lot. The product met all my needs and I am very satisfied. Good luck and if you have anymore questions...just ask.

Yes it has a floating hinge. I Love the fact that the grease try is in the front and concealed.

No, it does not lock on that side. And the hinge side attaches magnetically.

Entire case & index is plastic, but seems to be very well made. Metal hinge pin is common to case & 3 sections for bits

As stated in another response, it's a plastic/rubber case, but it does seem strong and sturdy.
