When using this case, does the tablet "wake up" (come "on") when you open the front of the case?

It does not. As a matter of fact it does not have an access hole to turn on the tablet. The case is useless to me

No, it doesn't; which is actually a feature I like about it since sometimes I just want to "hide" the screen briefly by closing the case.

It has a magnet, but unfortunately it doesn't automatically makes my tablet go into sleep mode. I have to do it myself before closing it. But in all, it's a pretty good case.

Yes it does. When you close the case, your iPad will go to "sleep" and when you open the case your iPad will "wake up".

Yes it is an instant on case. It puts it to sleep when you close it. To turn it off completely you have to use the off button. I love this feature. Enjoy

No..this does not provide an auto sleep/wake function when opening or closing this case.

When you close the case & the ipad is powered on, it will go to sleep. So when you open the case it awakens from sleep mode. To shut off the ipad completely press down on black button on the top right of the device. This also powers it back on.

It goes to sleep when you close the cover, and wake up when you open the cover. Hope that helps!

If you are inferring that you can put your tablet to sleep and wake it up by simply by opening & closing the cover the answer is no. The tablet will automatically go into sleep mode if left un touched for a pre - determined amount of time which you can adjust in the settings. It would help if you could be more specific with your question though as I am not in any way shape or form a computer or tablet geek.

Yes, the screen will go dark when cover shuts. You hear a little click, like a camera shutter. When you open, you simply press the button and it wakes up.

Hi. The Belkin Cinema Leather Folio Case has the Auto Wake magnet feature where in you can shut on/off the iPad when opened/closed. From the Home screen tap 'Settings'. This should automatically open up in the "General" options, but if not simply tap "General" in the left hand side options, navigate in the 4th block of General options, then you will see "iPad Cover Lock/Unlock" option. If this is set to "Off" it means that the Sleep / Wake function has been disabled. Simple slide this across into the "On" position to activate. Press the Home button to return. If you need further assistance, email us at BelkinCares@belkin.com.

Yes. Closing the case lid will put the tablet into standby(sleep mode). Thanks KC

The Otterbox cover (pink) for the Mini I pad that I purchased for my daughter does not activate the on/off wake function. Apparently, from what I understand some covers have magnets that activates the function.

I don't believe that it does. I closed the case but I can see that it does not go into the sleep mode nor does it turn on "wake on" when I open the case

No sure if any case comes with auto wake/ sleep. This is a great case for kids that protect the iPad well and it also looks great. On a flat surface it works well as far as propping up the iPad.

It will be put on stand by, not exactly shut off. When you open the cover, the iPad wakes up.
