will the smart cover stick via the magnet to the back of this case when opened?

I'm guessing you are asking if the smart cover will remain flat against the back of the case magnetically when you are using the iPad. There is no magnet on the back of the case and the iPad magnets are not strong enough to hold it to the back when the case is on, so the answer is no. If you want that and are willing to pay more, the case by Spigen has a magnet on the back to do that.

It fits perfectly even with a smart cover opened and closed. I have been using my iPad mini with this cover for reading books an hour a day.

Yes, the magnetic front holds the case closed very well. The cover stays close if you hold it upside down and it takes more than just a finger flick to open the case. I believe the magnetic resistance is just right.

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

I don't think it has magnets...it just kinda stays via friction. Not very well either. I was not pleased as it was very poorly designed compared to an iPad smartcover.

My case does have a magnet to hold the front cover closed, but it does not turn my ipad on or off. Alice

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

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.

Nope. The magnet is on the back side of the phone, and it also does not interfere with the phone. It has thick padding between the phone and the magnet and is very safe!

Yes. There is decently strong magnet in the flap and the case. There are a couple of different ways you can position it. I always had it as pictured, but flipped upside down.

Yes, it's just a two piece magnet. One part actually clamps on the flip part itself and the other attaches to the bezel of the phone with an adhesive strip that's pretty strong. The magnet is actually within the piece that attaches to the phones bezel and once the flap is closed the magnet holds it together and keeps it from opening up on its own which will happen with the S-View case or any other flip cover without some type of locking mechanism. It's a simple solution at a reasonable price.

As far as I know the cover still has the magnet closure. It has no affect on the function of the tablet.

Actually not, and it is what I like about this one. Bc in the removable the magnet is very weak and easy to take it off. I almost dropped a friend iPad thinking it was as sturdy as mine. But removing the cover will take you just a few secs when you lift the corners of the case itself.

Yes, I think so. It DOES NOT have the cutout for the magnetic strip on the left side of an Apple smart cover. After dropping my iPad the second time, I tossed the back cover since it will not stay attached to the front cover.

If you're asking if the magnets touch/work together with cover flapped open and bent backwards.....no it doesn't. The flat part of the magnet sticks to side of phone, the back piece of the cover overlaps or blocks that flat magnet from connecting with the part on the cover. Hope that makes sense. It's still nice to have and haven't found your concern to be an issue.

I don't understand what the point of the magnetic flap on the cover would be. Perhaps you could offer your thoughts? The magnets are on the casing itself, and the entire outer segment of the cover is a magnet. The cover closes very securely without issue when these two meet.

Yes. It is a little tight because the Smart cover causes more friction, but it does fit well.
