Fits snug, feels durable

This is the second case I have bought for my Samsung tablet. I wore out the first one and couldn't find the same unbranded case I bought last time, so I gave this one a try. Due to the cost I was expecting it to be a bit flimsy and "cheap" but it isn't. The plastic base snaps firmly into place and all ports are clearly visible and surrounded by hard plastic. The back wall looks good. The 3 panel cover has 2 hinges and if you fold back a small part you can see the sleep function turns on and off on your tablet and works fine. There are small magnets along the opening that hold the lid securely. The only downside I have is that this is my second lid and the first hinge is halfway back and a hinge point on the lid. This made it possible to hide the "triangle" behind the back, which was very large and reliable. This is a lid, the triangle is only made with a lid and is held in place by a metal plate in the lid and magnets on the back, making the triangle smaller and less stable. It works well when the tablet is lying sideways on a flat, stable surface. But if you use the "low" mode, it tends to collapse and fall on the table. On the other hand, I've found the small triangle to be a handy stopping point, and I often fold the lid so I'm more likely to hold it in my left hand while reading than in normal open-book mode. Overall I am very happy with this purchase.
