Can you fold this case back behind the iPad, so you can use it as only a tablet?

I agree with the other answers, and additionally invite you to take a look at this, which is the version of this case that I own and am extremely pleased with:iPad case, iPad keyboard case, New Trent Airbender 1.0 Wireless Bluetooth Clamshell iPad Keyboard Case w/ 360 Degree Rotation for iPad 4, iPad 3, iPad 2 ONLY - NOT for iPad Air, iPad Air 2

Yes, but it doesn't fold 100 percent flat or lock into place. Doesn't bother anyone in my family, but YMMV.

I haven't tried that, but I wouldn't think so. The case fits tightly around the iPad.

You can, but it's not ideal. If I plan to use it that way, I just slip it out of the case...which is really easy to do after it loosens up a little with some use.

There isn't a lot of space to allow for a tablet to have a case on it. I don't have an iPad with an Otter box case so I can't say for sure, but if I had to bet, I'd say probably not. You'd likely have to remove the case. But if you can stand your tablet up on its own, I'd just ignore the built-in hinge/stand. It's Bluetooth so it should work otherwise.

I am not sure I understand. It opens fully to reveal the iPad or whatever, but it does not fold completely underneath as designed. You can force it underneath the bottom (where the device is kept) with little effort, but I am not sure of it's stitched integrity.

The top flat portion is adjustable as are all of the joints shown. So you probably could, but you would need to secure the IPad so it wouldn't slide off when at that angle. There are better things I would say for an IPad. Such as IPEVO Perch Desktop Stand for iPad 2 & iPad 4/3 3 - Black (S) And combined with a Bluetooth keyboard, you'd be in good shape

Yes, you can fold it back, however, it does not stay put. since it is divided, it does not stay flat, too fexible.

Yes. (with a caveat) You can fold the tablet over the keyboard, but doing so makes the corners of the tablet press on the keys underneath, which could cause undesired behavior. Not a huge gripe, but something to be aware of. I fix this by switching off the keyboard, and then turning it back on when I'm done. Hope this helps! :)

Yes. My case is now over a year old and I use my ipad HEAVILY. And my case looks good as new! Still nice snug fit andots if protection. Folds flat, stands up, LOVE this case! Worth every penny!

No. You can't remove the keyboard. It's a silicone keyboard so it's sorta glued on. But you are able to fold it back up, even with your iPad inside of the case.

Yes you can, if you have a 'skeleton' style case. I have the LuvTab case, that folds back to allow using the cradle while still in the case. It also gives access to 99% of the tablets surface (nice for keeping it clean, no bezel to trap dust). It used to be sold here, if not it's not hard to find. Having the cradle is very nice, it allows you to use the tablet while it's charging at an adjustable angle. It's nice to use the tablet with a Bluetooth Keyboard on my lap and the screen resting in it's cradle on a nearby table. When I take it with me, it just lifts out of the cradle, the case locks shut very securely and I'm away. Buy the cradle, you will regret not having it and they are now heavily discounted.

I'm assuming that this is virtually the same as the one for the original iPad mini. If so, then yes, it does fold around so that the keyboard part is directly behind the iPad. If you do this, you may find that you want to turn off the keyboard, as that will put the keys where your fingers will be holding the cover, and you will unintentionally type. Or you could just remove the keyboard while holding the iPad this way.

No you cannot but in place of that, you are able to fold wallet back and connect the magnetic lapel to it. This allows you to use it flat as a case.

Yes. While the case is folded shut you can't use anything because the shell protects the iPad and the keyboard, but when you fold it open the touch screen is unimpeded.

Yes you can. The casing for the entire keyboard and iPad mini case are durable and smooth. You can fold it over and still use the iPad or you can set it up for Landscape mode or portrait and use the keyboard.

You can. The one photo within the item listing showed the ipad on top of the keyboard. It doesn't sit flat flat due to the hinge mechanism. However it has been designed to not sit directly on the keys because of raised rubber stoppers. I feel like it works very well even of you're holding it more like a book. Hope this helps.

Yes. I am not using the iPad holder, so I don't know if that would make a difference. I do store papers in the side pocket, but I am able to open it and have it lay flat on a table.
