Samsung - Folio Case for Galaxy Tab S3 9.7" - Black

The worst case ever! There's nothing to keep the tablet locked in to the case and it's only magnetic so I'm not sure how Samsung can call this a case. Definitely not worth $60 and worth $0.01. Do not recommend at all. There's a high chance that your tablet can fall out from the case and get damaged.

Fit perfectly and looks amazing , good quality but easy to get prints and stains.

I was looking or a slim case just like the one I had on my original Tab S, and this fits the bill. Not bulky, multiple viewing angles, and fits like a glove. It doesn't have a holder for the pen, but the clip on the pen is metal and it sticks well enough to the case's magnets to keep the pen from being misplaced. The only minor drawback for me is that the case attaches to the tablet by magnets instead of clipping on like the Tab S case did. Because of this, sometimes moving or holding it in an awkward way while using it causes the case to slide off. Not a major deal, but a minor annoyance. For the most part, the magnets hold it in place better than I expected they would, actually. Otherwise, it's exactly what I was looking for.

This is my second Samsung Tab S series tablet. I owned the original Tab S with a bookcase cover. I decided to upgrade. After giving up my previous model, and upgrading to the Tab S3; I still needed to find a case or cover. Being that the Tab S3 is so new, there really are, no other options, than the covers available from Samsung. This model cover attaches only by magnets. The magnets, I personally find are not strong enough to secure the tablet and keep it in the cover if dropped or jarred suddenly. The original Tab S tablet attached to the book cover via two snaps that popped into the back of the tablet. I found that case very secure. I just don't feel this cover is worth $59.99. It gives at best, a shaky coverage that could fall off easily. Or the tablet could fall out from the cover with any sudden unexpected movement. I would not recommend this cover. Although Samsung is trying to get more sleek, they really need to re-tool the way to attach their proprietary cases. The unfortunate things, is there truly is no other option at this time. So I will keep the cover at this time. If something better can be found with in the return policy terms, I will return it, and choose a more stable case or cover.

This folio is different from its predecessor. It used to be attached to the tablet by two "mushroom" posts that secured it to the tablet. This one uses two strong magnets, one in the tablet, one in the folio to hold things together. It does okay, but one time when it dropped, the tablet started to slip. I knocked it down a star for that reason.

It is still protecting my daughter's galaxy Tab 3. Although the magnetic strip that keeps it connected to it is starting to give way. But not bad for a very active year plus of use.

Like the slim case, not bulky, fits like a glove. It doesn't have a holder for the pen, but the clip on the pen is metal and it sticks well enough to the case's magnets. A minor drawback for me is that the case attaches to the tablet by magnets instead of clipping on. Sometimes moving or holding it in an awkward way while using it causes the case to slide off. For the most part, the magnets hold it in place better than I expected they would. Overall exactly what I was looking for.

I really liked this case because it keeps my tablet thin and somewhat protected. That being said, I didn't care for the edges not being protected and the back just being attached by a magnet. When I knew I was going to be in the office I felt fine using this but when going out on the weekend and using it to draw I would be nervous if it were to fall. Although I hardly ever drop my devises but that doesn't mean I want to take the chance and this would not provide enough protection. With the glass on the back and how thin this Tab S3 is I would have liked a fitting case with the flap or a removable flap.
