Does this case have a magnet to automatically wake/sleep a Nexus 7 (2013)? I am looking for a case which does not have a magnet.

After you close the case lid, the Nexus still stays on for a few minutes. It is quite cool actually, as you can see the desktop icons glowing through the poly cover.So it has NO magnet.

My London Kavaj case for iPad Mini 3 DOES NOT have the sleep/wake feature! I trusted the previous answers despite the fact that the product description did NOT mention sleep/wake, so I am disappointed. If that feature is important to you, just know that mine DID NOT HAVE SLEEP/WAKE. When I called Amazon about it, they said they could not support a feature that was not mentioned in the product description, which makes perfect sense. So order at your own risk.

No the case does not have magnets, just velcro. Yes it does turn on/off when you open or close the case.

Yes, the OtterBox for the Nexus 7 does have 2 magnets inside the cover. It allows the tablet to sleep when the cover is on and awake when you take it off.

I tossed the case, however I believe so. The issue is that the case fit is very sloppy. A one size fits all. The manufacture is simply trying to move an obsolete product. You bend the tabs on the case until it approximates a fit. The case is actually larger then the nexus 7. Even if you get the case to line up with the opening, it will move on you. I found no other case for the Nexus 7 - 2013 model then the over priced $60 case from Google which I eventually got. That case is specifically molded for the new nexus 7, however $60 for plastic and cardboard is gouging. Good luck

I use the: EXOTEK Premium Slim-Fit Folio Cover Case With Multi-Angle Stand For Google Nexus 7 Tablet (With Automatic Sleep/Wake Function) (Black) by EXOTEK and it fits and works perfectly for $9.00

Yes there are built in magnets that keeps it closed. Very nice case for a low price.

I have not purchased this particular product and do not know the answer, however, I did buy a different product that looked similar, and found that there were magnets in the top corners of the part that held the tablet in place (not the cover part), and the magnet in the top left corner kept causing my Dell Venue 11 Pro to go to "sleep", basically making the case useless. I have to decide whether to cut the magnet out or return the product. So I'll be interested to see the answer to this question. I think the manufacturer of that product that I bought put the magnet in the wrong place! They should have put the magnet in the cover, not the strap that holds the tablet!

i dunno about the magnets but im sure that when i close the flap/cover of this case, my Note 8 automatically turns off its screen... when i open the flap/cover, sometimes it automatically turns my Note 8's screen on, sometimes it won't (it depends on how the screen was turned off)...

Mark, I can conform that the magnets do not work for the sleep/wake function. I tested this out and found it didn't work. That's really the only gripe I have about it right now. The case does stay closed though. Other than that I really like it.

No, it does not. When you close the case you have to turn the phone off or I have my phone programmed to shut off automatically. The magnet does not interfere with the phone in any way . I am using the case right now. I am a nurse and use the case at work, I can carry the phone in my pocket without risk of harming it. I also get a lot of compliments on the. case.

Yes there are magnets. No the magnets have not ever interfered with my tablet function in any way. No the keyboard is not attached by magnets, the keyboard is attached to the back of the case by very handy velcro design and then there is a flap on the opposite side of the keyboard section from the velcro side with magnets that allows the flap to wrap around to keep the whole case tidily closed together.

I don't think it has a magnet. To continue Faith's answer, mine does go to sleep when I close the flap over the undocked tablet.

No magnet to hold the case closed, but closing the case does turn off the screen. Also, the strap allows you to keep the case open when holding the tablet.

Yes there is a magnet on the case. The case can also be kept open exposing the phone if you are making a lot of calls. It is held open by the same magnet that keeps it closed. I like this case a lot but you can only carry a couple of things in it or it won't close. ID Some money and a card works great! Hope this helped

Todd, I was reading some of the "newest first" reviews and it looks like the magnet that puts the iPad to sleep does not work with this case. Are you able to confirm that? I'm expecting my new iPad to be delivered on Monday the 20th and I'm still trying to make a decision on some of the cases available.

It has no magnets. It is a normal case without the function of turning on and off the tablet screen.
