how does the case stay closed with a magnet?

It stays closed very well. Even being jostled around, like in my backpack on an airplane, case stays closed. I've had mine for a couple of months and no problems and I travel a lot . I think it's an excellent product for the price. Your kindle will fit nice and smug so shouldn't even fall out.

There is a sort of lip on the middle right side and that is where the magnet is.

Yes it is magnetized Chad and is excellent at keeping my Kindle Paperwhite safe and secure. No problems, very satisfied with the performance of it. I highly recommend it.

It looks to me like the slim tabs at the centers of the open edges hold magnetic components. These work just fine to keep the cover closed. Somehow they also turn off my kindle screen when shut. BTW- I love the sleekness of this cover- it's easy on the hands and feels like it was made as one with the Kindle..

Hi Chad......the magnet works perfect. I haven't had any problems with the case opening up at all. Good luck :)

It's a magnetic closure. There are hidden magnets in the flap and in the part of the case that it closes against.

The magnet is helpful. It keeps the case/cover from flapping around and opening.

no. the front cover is a tri- fold and is weighted, so when you close it stays closed.its almost like its a magnet.

Yes, it stays tightly closed until you open it. I think the magnet keeps it closed--I'm not sure about that, but that's what it feel like.

Yes the case stays closed firmly - there are magnets that hold the cover in place.

It has a powerful magnet that keeps it closed. No snap. But it stays closed.

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.

It has a magnet to close the case but not a automatic magnet that turns the iPad

Unfortunately this is built with the strap for use while opened. The strap is inside and used pretty much to hold steady. The magnet is only to keep the case closed. Hope this answers your question.

No, mine does not have a magnetic lock to keep it closed. The magnets are on the other side, like binding on a book. I had not noticed because I carry it like a book and I keep it in a padded, zipped and fitted case.

Yes, there are magnets in the case. No, it does not close with a latch or strap. I have not experienced turning on and off whenever the case was opened or closed.

The case stays closed by a magnet embedded in the flap. So you know, my case lasted about a year before the swivel came loose from the case. Not bad considering the price.

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, the case closure is magnetic. After 2 months it is still working very well

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