Yes. The keyboard is a magnant. However I don't know if it's damaging or not.

I had to return mine because over time the magnets caused dead spots on my screen. There are 4 magnets holding the keyboard. If you remove the keyboard and fold the cover back, there will be dead spots on the four corners where the back cover is folded over. There is another magnet that holds the stand in place. When the tablet is flat, there is a dead spot in the middle of the screen where that magnet is placed :( Very sad because I REALLY loved this case but I do a lot of touch sensitive work so it had to go.

Yes in the keyboard magnets are facing away from tablet. Usually store separately. Haven't had any interference as of yet

magnets like that won't affect tablet or computer unless it has a spinning hard drive..

Dont have these anymore... had to throw them out. It contains magnets on the tab and they are not to be used on note type of screens as it will damage it and make the writing capabilities inop.

There is a magnet inside the flat board, near the top. I can tell it helps to hold my iPad and keep it from falling forward. I don't believe that magnets this weak can damage the digital readers, because my keyboard connects to my iPad magnetically and I've been using that for years.

Yes it does have magnets. It is good for keeping the top closed and it won't open unexpectedly! If is an awesome case!!

Sorry, I dont use an S pen, so I dont know the answer. It hasnt interfered with anything for me though. The magnet is not situated anywhere near the screen. It snaps to the back of the cover when it's open and to the front of the cover only when it's closed. The price is cheap enough that it's no great gamble.

I haven't experienced any issues with the magnet. I usually try to keep my cards with magnetic strips in my wallet though, for fear of ruining them.

No magnets in the case at all. But the tablet is very secure in the case. Doesn't move around at all.

No. I had this case for my last phone as well, and have not had any problems with de-magnetizing. I would mention that pulling them in and out can cause wear on cards so I position accordingly

Yes there are magnets. No the magnets have not ever interfered with my tablet function in any way. No the keyboard is not attached by magnets, the keyboard is attached to the back of the case by very handy velcro design and then there is a flap on the opposite side of the keyboard section from the velcro side with magnets that allows the flap to wrap around to keep the whole case tidily closed together.

I have not experienced aný problems with the magnetic catch or case. In fact, If I am not mistaken, thet magnetic part of the catch is located on the bottom of the case - beneath and away from the keyboard. Thus, I could not see how the magnet would impact the screen area. WIth that said, the catch does require attention to properly secure the case. Othewwise, I have not experienced any problems thus far.

Their is no magnet, nor means of holding it unless you can jury rig something. I do still use the case every day as it is very light and does offer protection. While I would have preferred aniline, it is holding its looks fairly well and I have had people ask me where I got it.

You are talking about CRT monitors which could be affected by magnets. New screens aren't affected. Also mechanical hard drives can be affected by strong magnetic fields but SSD and micro SD cards are not affected. I have been using 2 of these for my phone and my wife's in 2 different vehicles and have not had any problems with our electronic devices.

Well, interesting question: it does not have magnets but on the inside of the cover. However, when you open the cover you actually hold it with your hand to read and type. I don't see any inconvenience: it works fine. You can also fold it in a triangle, which helps when you want to type with two hands or just view the "landscape" size of it. Hope it helps.

No... and don't EVER purchase ANY cover for ANY electronic device that has a magnet closure. Devices with computer chips and memory cards, such as smart phones, notes, pads, etc., can have their components and memory damaged by magnets.

The music stand has no magnetic parts. Yes I think it would easily hold a tablet.

I have not purchased this particular product and do not know the answer, however, I did buy a different product that looked similar, and found that there were magnets in the top corners of the part that held the tablet in place (not the cover part), and the magnet in the top left corner kept causing my Dell Venue 11 Pro to go to "sleep", basically making the case useless. I have to decide whether to cut the magnet out or return the product. So I'll be interested to see the answer to this question. I think the manufacturer of that product that I bought put the magnet in the wrong place! They should have put the magnet in the cover, not the strap that holds the tablet!
