how does this thing stay closed? Is it magnetic or is there a flap?

There is a flap but no magnet. This is an exceptionally high quality case made with solid materials. I love it! The Blue color is very classic.

No the samsung flip cover is not magnetic, and it doesn't have a flap. It doesn't have anything to keep it closed. It just lays flat it does open sometimes because it doesn't have anything to keep it closed.

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!

It has a magnet that keeps the case closed. I purchased this as a gift for someone and she LOVES it! She has had no complaints at all.

It closes with magnets? I carry mine in my purse and have never had a problem with its coming open.

there is a magnetic snap. the flap part has a slight protrusion. the base part has a slight depression. the protrusion inserts into the depression, and is kept closed with magnetic pieces.

It has magnets that will keep it closed. However, be advised, this unit has VERY SHARP EDGES, sharp enough to cause injury. Surprising considering the brand name. I sent mine back for this reason. Also, it is a very heavy unit, should you decide to purchase, be sure you can locate a stud for both top and bottom. Hope this helps. Billy

It has an elastic band on the back of the case that you can wrap around to hold the cover closed. No magnets or velcro.

The front flap is magnetic. It has a well designed swivel clip on the back which will not come off your belt without some effort. The back clip is not hoop and loop either. It is heavy duty plastic. I found it much easier to unbuckle my belt and slide it off. This is the only clip that I have found which will not come of the belt accidentally.

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, the entire outer art of the flap has a strong magnet which securely keeps the case closed. The magnet will also hold the case folded to the back when you fold the two outer movable parts back on each other behind the phone for easy holding and texting. The case is secure and protective with the strong flap magnet.

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.

Button closure is magnetic. There is a magnetic in the triangular piece and in the front cover. The magnetic closure is easy to use. I have the 3 card slots occupied with 2 plastic credit cards for total of 6 cards and it still works perfectly. I am very happy with unit.

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

It does have a magnetic closure which works very well. If you close the cover it will go to sleep and come back on when you open it. I have only had it a few days, but am very pleased.

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.
