Does the cover lie flat against the back, when open, without the magnet(s) putting the iPad to sleep?

Yes can lie flat against. Only goes to sleep when it covers the front of iPad

If I am understanding your question correctly then the answer is yes, the cover lies flat against the back when open.

Yes the cover stays in place when open or closed. Note, it's not magnetized.

Yes, it completely covers the iPad, front and back. The edges are only slightly exposed. The iPad doesn't go to the very edge. It sits inside about a half inch so it's protected if you drop it and it lands on an edge The iPad is held in place with elastic anchors in each corner but it doesn't latch shut. It opens easily like a book.

Yes, it "wakes" the iPad when opened, and puts it to sleep when you close the case.

Yes, the Besdata cover does put the iPad mini to sleep. I have this cover and the original Apple cover (which I couldn't return or I would have) and they both work the same way. I can't think of any reason why you wouldn't be satisfied with the Besdata if this kind of cover is what you're looking for.

No. There are cut outs in the case for charging and the sleep button. My only quirk about the case "was" that it didn't have built-in magnets to automatically put it to sleep when closed. Easy fix with cheap magnets i had laying around the house.

No it doesn't. It does have a nice magnetic latch and the iPad goes to sleep quickly on its own, depending on the designation in settings. This fits the iPad nicely and looks sharp.

I personally have never experienced this problem. My iPad goes to "sleep" every time the cover is closed with this companion case on. I've really enjoyed this case and have not experienced any difficulty while using it.

No. The iPad sits in a trough like groove in the keyboard and it is a static angle and a rigid structure. I have found this very nice as the whole thing does not flop flat or slide apart if I set it on my lap or move it around while using it.

Gravity keeps the cover closed. You really have to break in the cover to make it close fully though. The magnet is to wake and sleep the screen when you open and close the cover.

Yes there is a small magnet that holds the cover shut, i dont know what others were complaining about my cover stays shut just fine

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

1. The cover will not lay flat against the back but form a triangle with the back, front, and spine. Does no damage. 2. The cover is held in place by a strap but opening the cover does wake the device.

Yes, it shouldn't be a problem. I don't have a Smart Cover but the case that I have still wakes up my iPad when I flip it open. It hasn't shown interference with the magnetic sleep wake feature of the iPad. It works like nothing's there!

It does fold flat against the back but not magnetically held there. There is a magnet when closing cover over front. Also the frontcover folds into 3 sectioned parts and there are magnets to hold it in that position. Great cover, it will also fit into cover pouch that came with tablet for extra protection when traveling.

Hello wendi, I use a keyboard cover case which is way thicker and it allows the ipad to go to sleep. The beauty of the case is that it was designed to allow for the magnets to touch and allow it to go to sleep when the covers are on. Hope that helps. I love this case I am definetly getting more of them.

Hi Antonio,The magnets are perfectly flush with the case. Your iPad can lay perfectly flat with or without a Smart Cover.
