The case is held shut with with small magnets and is held shut securely. The tablet is held very securely in the case and you will have no concern about it falling out. And the case is easily hand held. I have traveled extensively with mine and I love it.

It's an excellent case. Magnets hold the cover closed. The tablet is held securely with velcro. The tablet can be removed from the case by unsnapping it making it easy to hold. In fact the snap is the secret behind the 360 degree rotation. You will like it.

It folds over and is attached by a very good snap to hold and allow the tablet to rotate. The cover has a magnet inside to keep it secure. One end is thicker than the other so if you have small hands you may have a harder time holding it. It fits in my back pocket. Just don't sit down.

The case has a magnet which holds it closed. It's not difficult to hold it in hands but it will swivel. You can always detach it and it won't move in your hands. It is very secure. It snaps in place. I haven't tried cases with velcro, but I think this one is more secure. Velcro will get loose over time but this snap won't. It is a great case. I still love it.

It does not stay closed and the tablet is not secure as the case is a bit too large. If the case is turned vertical to vertical (up and down) it slides about 3/8 inch and wobbles side to side as well. I dropped my Galaxy Tab 2 while in the case and the glass broke.

Hi Nate. It is slightly magnetized without the keyboard in it. With the keyboard in (which holds onto the case by the magnet but it isn't a strong magnet because it might interfere with the electronics if it was stronger. I guess you would need to use some kind of strap or such to keep it closed when it is being moved around from a flat surface. We don't take ours outside the house so we don't have an issue. We really like it though and simply just hold it when we move it from place to place. It is substantial and it protects the IPad very well. Hope that helps!

you can attach the velcro to the tablet, but i found i did not like it and removed it. i keep mine behind the mesh area and holds just fine. when i am using the tablet i take it out of the case. hope this helps. other than that i do like the case, it is a good travel case but maybe not an everyday case.

The keyboard can be removed and your tablet will remain in the protective leather enclosure. As long as the velcro retaining strap is in place the tablet stays tight. On the negative side, don't expect the keyboard to last long before the keys start failing to respond! I got two of them and one of them didn't last much more than two weeks before they started to fail! I like the protective portfolio but not impressed with the keyboard.

It has a sticky pad that holds your tablet securely. Just stick it on and go! Easy!

Yes, it is detachable. I put my keyboard away when I don't want to use it. Then I just use the case to keep my tablet protected. I really like it.

It is magentic. Nothing to keep it closed when keyboard is not attached. However, it will not slip out if that is what you are afraid of. I highly recommend this case. I love mine and everyone who has seen it admires it as well.

Yes, both keyboard and tablet are closed in the case. Keyboard is secured by 4 magnets. A little pressure an the keyboard will detach. This is a great case.

The tablet sits in a shelf on the Preparation Iprep stand. I use it all the time. My tablet has never fallen out. My fiancé and I both have one. We love them.

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

Hello - I leave my hand-e-holder in place at all times and have a padded, top zippered case that easily fits my tablet. The tablet slidesright in from the top of the case and there is plenty of room to accommodate the holder. My tablet is primarily used for work so this holder has worked perfectly on the job.

I only keep my ID and debit card in the case and it is still tight and secure. Now adding money into it will propbably stretch it out a bit but due to the somewhat elasticity and friction of the material, the cards should stay put when the money is removed. If I take one of the cards out, the other card stays in pretty well. You really have to smack your phone to pop it out. Again this is not and issue for me and so far the case has been great. Take whatever you plan on putting into it... hold it next to the back of your phone and thats how it will feel in your hand. Very slim design.

two parts. The keyboard protector snaps on and off via two buckles. The unit does not secure shut with a magnet or anything, it just folds shut but my tablet seems quite safe inside. There's no risk of the tablet falling out and the case seems quite capable of protecting the tablet if dropped. HTH

There's a magnet that hold the case closed. I've never dropped mine, but it feels relatively secure.

If your detach the keyboard from the arm there is nothing to close. The keyboard is a one piece unit unlike the iPad part of the case that can be removed from its enclosure. If you detach the keyboard from the iPad you'll have a durable half case for the iPad with a built in screen protector. I hope this answers your question

So far, my iPad reattaches securely. I've only had the keyboard folio case for a little over a month now, so I can't comment on the keyboard case long-term.
