Magnet is a bit tricky

The case is made of durable material and is protective. My only problem (and it is a biggie) is with the magnet system. I wasn't used to using it but I had no choice as the store had only this model in my tablet's size. To use the upright viewing feature the tablet has to be up a little to stick to the case but the hold is tenuous making it inferior to straps if it is not on a constant flat surface (like a bed). It's OK but I prefer the straps.

I wanted protection for my new tablet but also a simple way to elevate the screen to a proper angle. After 2 years of continuous reliability it also shows no signs of wear, no crack and no other issues.

Good for basic protection, and for proping up a tablet. However, tablet can still easily slide off when propped up, and if it moves off the magnet holding it up, your screen may go black and you will need to sign back in. This is annoying!!!

I really like this cover. It fits great. I wish it came in more colors...red, green, orange, something bright!! It does make the tablet feel a little heavy. Otherwise great product.

While it does not have all the frills of some tablet covers, it does the job it needs to. Wish it had an elastic band to prevent it from accidentally coming open as the magnet is not always strong enough to keep it closed.

This is a good cover for the Samsung Tab A 10.1.
As others have mentioned, the Tab A has no mounting holes like other Samsung devices, so this one simply uses magnetic backing to hold the tablet in place. It's a pretty firm grip and holds the tablet very securely.
My only negative feedback is this case does not have a small, flip piece on the end like other Samsung covers... it is just like a book cover that goes over the front and back side with no flip piece to either hold the back solid or the front closed. If you look at 8 and 9" Samsung tablet covers, you'll see what I mean. It's just a half-inch wide, hinged flap that secures it and this is a much missed little feature.
Overall, it is built well, cleans easy and holds the tablet very securely.

Love the case. But, the magnet that holds the tablet to the case could be stronger. With a bit of a shake, the tablet comes loose

Not a good cover when holding your tablet around.

Not a great choice to get it when you are moving around places. Its just a magnet holding the tablet. Its good if you are just using it in your office and not moving it around.

At first I didnt think this case would work out and hold the tablet but I had the wrong case for non s pen version. I had the s pen version and it didnt work at all. I exchanged it and got this and it's made for a perfect fit. Good strong magnets keep tablet in place when in both viewing position as well as in portrait and landscape. Tha camera cut is perfect. It's probably not the best protection on the corners against frequent drops but does protect agaisnt everyday wear and tear.

For the money, it's hard to find a better cover for my Tab A 2016 10.1 tablet. Build quality is good, tablet fits perfectly and the magnetic on/off feature works great.

I may be uninitiated, but I had a bit of trouble figuring out how to use the cover as a stand. Pictures are not necessarily worth a 1,000 words in this instance, some written word instructions might have been helpful.

Simple protection. Does its job with two prop up settings. Magnets hold it in place which keeps it very slim.

It does what it is suppose to do. However, I do not like the fact that I cannot position it to where I can watch shows. There is no way to bend it.

This cover uses magnets. It is well built and you can set it up in several different positions. This is made for the tablet with the pen. Easy access to the pen. Highly recommend.

Fits as expected. Do not like the back cover being foldable, guess I am use to how the Ipad is on the front cover. When tablet moves on the back cover, you have to re-enter password which is frustrating.

The cover is a good cover however even though the tablet is being held by magnetic magnets it still does not stay on well for the most part it does what it needs to do

We just purchased the Bose Solo 5 Sound Bar and are very pleased with it. It is comparable to our Bose Acustimas Sound System and was much cheaper.
