When it says magnetic closure does that apply to the stand up feature or closing the cover when not in use?

Closing the cover, in back is a tab to tuck cover in when utilizing stand feature.

Just to the closure on the cover. The stand fits into a slot on the back. Product works well for me and I would recommend it.

The magnetic closure only works when you close the cover. It does not have magnets on the back of the case so that when you fold it over it doesn't hold the cover to the back of the case. I love my cover. I have several.

It is not magnetic. The cover usually stays closed or you can turn it over (face down). I don't have any problem with the cover staying closed on mine. I love this cover!

The closure flap is magnetized. Works well. The only thing I don't like is it cannot be charged with the cover closed.

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..

On my case the only magnets seem to be on the first and fourth folds of the front cover. They are powerful enough for it to snap into the triangle shape for the stand. When I stand the mini in either the flat or upright position, it stays there firmly, so the manufacturer of this one probably didn't think it needed a magnet on the back of the case. I had read reviews of other cases where a too-powerful magnet, placed in a bad spot, would turn the mini on and off at weird times, but this case doesn't do that. Hope this helps!

The cover is quite thin and yes it stays closed as has the magnets! I am really pleased with the cover

If you are talking about the Ipad in a closed postion, the Ipad does not slip out of the case unless you have it in backwards/upsidedown. The magnetic closure system only works in one direction. As long as you always make sure you close it in the proper position with correct alignment you will not have a problem. In the open position I only have a problem when I use the IPad in a vertical position. It's never a problem for me in the horizontal position.

The magnet is strong enough to turn the iPad on and off. It's also strong enough to hold it shut when your hand is holding the iPad upside down by the spine. Random things get attached to the iPad cover because of the magnet. However, if the iPad cover slips and the edge of the iPad is exposed, then the magnet will no longer hold the cover shut.

The back cover does not have any magnets embedded, so when folded open the front cover flaps unless held.This is not a big issue in terms of actual use since the device's size is so small, I naturally hold it closed, and adding magnets seems even a bit superfluous.

There isn't a magnet to keep it close, but mine stays mostly closed. I just flip the cover behind the back to keep it open.

Mine is definitely magnet, it's built into the cover about half way down the long side and helps the cover stay shut. I would say yours might be defective.

yeah there is a magnetic closure. You can see from the pictures 3 and 5.Thanks

Hi. Mine does not have a magnetic closure, but it does have a 'lip' that fits snugly over the edge and holds the cover closed. I've been using it for roughly one month and have had no problems with it. In my opinion, it's well worth the price.

It's not a magnet, but mine stays closed - if your case doesn't stay closed - perhaps it's defective.

This is a really cool feature - the cover closes flat when the keyboard is attached to the case and when it is not. Actually, it all fits together best when the keyboard is attached (magnetic and very light weight).

It uses magnet to close. I have never had a case use anything else. I really love this case and the inside is rubber not hard plastic.

I purchased a separate cover that has a magnetic closure. When shut the cover is secure and takes a positive pull to open. The kindle itself is open faced. Hope this helps.
