Has the single position screen angle been a problem for anyone, say using it on your lap, relaxing on the couch, or something like that?

not really, the panel is an IPS panel...therefore it has lots of viewing angles

Horizontal placement can be "tuned" to the extent of the placement holes, but yes, there is some play. When retracted, arm will bring the screen back to "flush", "Center"

Hello. Yes, the screen will swivel a few degrees in each direction to optimize the viewing angle.

Hey, Mo from Bamboosa here. We do feel that the Lap Log works best if you are slightly reclined instead of lying flat on your back. The Lap Log does not really 'elevate' your device so in a totally flat position you would have bend your neck somewhat to get a good viewing position which may not be comfortable for everyone.

In my environment the viewing height is too high at about 3' from the ground. Sitting in the couch 12' away I had to look upward at the screen (56" model). Although I did not see any issues with the picture quality it was annoying to look upward. My solution was to place a thick book under the rear of the set, thus tilting the entire unit forward. (be careful not too much). tilting the unit made a big difference in viewing comfort

Yes, however I have had some trouble using it, its set at an angle and makes it a little awkward.

You can position the pad anyway you want. It is a good product for watching or reading, but excessive tapping on the screen makes the stand wobble. The weight of the pad is too much for the stand. You can reach all buttons, but the silent and lock buttons are tight.

The angle is pretty much set. You are not able to have the tablet sit on an angle of your choosing.

No, but the natural tilt is pretty flat. I still love this keyboard. Haven't thought much about the angle. Two other options for ergonomic help are Dragon Nat Speaking and foot pedal mouse and to a less extent touch screen monitor.

if you are referring to the two tabs that flip up that are supposed to keep the computer from sliding towards you, this is correct,,I do not use it on an angle much I keep it flat but It is very uncomfortable on the lap. the plastic edges dig into the legs. But for the price it was the cheapest for a 17 inch computer that keeps it cool. And I already burned out one mother board from over heating.

Somewhat. Flip the keyboard over, on the upper corners there are tabs, one tab on each side. When extended the tab will give you a slight angle. Try it for a while a see which you prefer.

It works OK. I find the screen angle is to 'steep', unless I remove the keyboard. Then I have space to adjust the angle to my liking, but the keyboard can get a little cramped, too close. Being made of a leather-like fabric can cause the folio to be unstable if you are not sitting up straight in a chair. Having said that I have used it when sitting in the passenger seat of my small-ish car (97 Nissan Altima) and I find it acceptable. Also, the folio can be 'folded open' so the key board is covered by the iPad with the screen facing up. This works well if I'm sitting with my knees somewhat higher than my hips. Having had it for couple of months now, I'm still happy with the Folio overall. It works OK. I find the screen angle is to 'steep', unless I remove the keyboard.

The viewing angle is fine and is better than 45 degrees from the side. Never has been an issue. I really recommend this one - it is so easy to use. The ones that you have to push minutes by one minute at a time are much more time consuming.

The neck of the pedestal is solid, so there is no way to change positions; therefore, it always tilts down. I believe this is to ensure the clarity of the picture, as I've noticed that when I am standing, I can hardly see the screen at all (too bright).

In my opinion, yes. I simply reached, while sitting in my Lazyboy, (with my feet up, I might add), to easily twist my monitor into a vertical/portrait position. It's a decent size monitor too. ( 28 inches )

I've had this model for quite some time. There is a little degradation from an angle but it's not bad at all. I can't imagine that anyone would position a chair at a viewing angle that would make it unacceptable - it'd have to be practically beside the TV.
