Will this case stand up at multiple angles? For example a lower angle to use for type writing? Or is it just the one angle for watching videos?

no, no kick stand or anything...just a simple jelly case.Would recommend the keyboard dock.

This case isn't a kickstand, but works great to prevent the tablet from tipping over when in the keyboard dock. Provides a very sturdy base aside from the best protection of any case I've seen or used. After accidentally dropping my tablet in this case, I no longer handle it like a newborn baby. It now travels with me everywhere and no longer confined to just carefull people handling it.

This case does not really allow for multiple angles. The edge of the case is thick enough and quite "skid-proof" so i have found that i can prop the top (long) edge of it up with anything that is a half inch up to about two inches tall without the tablet slipping. I have used my cell phone and a package of graham crackers (I have a 1 yr old son) along with many other things to prop my tablet up a little to make typing a little easier.

No, it only lies flat or is hand held. However, the material is grippy and your tablet stays in place very well if you are propping it up against something else.

Just the higher angle for watching videos. bobjgear makes a great stand that I use for angles. I have a bluetooth keyboard I hijacked from a pc for the typing tasks. It is a great cover for shock protection and helps with grip. Hope this helps.

there is no kickstand to keep the tablet at an angle however if you're looking for some heavy duty protection for your precious tablet, you can't get better than this.

Hi Mitch. I own and really love this stand. I'm a musician and Hercules is an iconic name in the music instrument world. To answer you question, yes, you can rotate the holder to suit your view all day long. I do it myself. I also liked that in one stand I can go from tripod to mic stand very easily. My only gripe (and I was going to leave this in my review) is that there is a small "U" shaped rubber piece to protect the exposed edge when in landscape mode and it absolutely needs to be improved upon. I get that it can't be too long on one side, or it will cover the screen, but being U shaped it doesn't come up the back very far and because the back is tapered the thing falls off all the time if you pick it up/walk around with it. It also falls off if you slide the thing around. What they needed to do was make a "J" shaped rubber piece that would go up high on the back end. This would have solved all these issues. Other than that I totally love it. I am not using an iPad Air, so I can't answer that, but I can say there is no way to adjust the depth, so it may be a little loose. You'd have to try for yourself or find someone else on that one. Hope that helps. -Jeff

The iPad, when snapped into the plastic backing case, rotates a full 360 degrees. It can be viewed at any angle. The only limiting feature is if you want to support the iPad with the other half of the Devicewear case. Then it must be either completely vertical or horizontal. Hope I understood your question correctly.

The case is very stable in the stand up positions. I've tried it at every angle and have not had it slip at all....

The case will not fold flat the way I feel that you are describing. In my opinion, this case is only useful in the horizontal stand position. If you just needed a keyboard extension and stand, it's really great. :)

It swivels so that the angle of the screen goes downward or upward as described by others (but the height of the screen is not adjustable). It does not swivel left or right, so I have it on a separate swivel stand for this purpose.

It's my experience that the stand is unstable in the portrait position. The case itself is very functional in the portrait position.

I've always had stand up cases and this is by far my favorite. It stands up great, just pop out the two lower claps on either side. It will stand on its own at any angle.

It has two viewing angles while in the landscape mode. One is steeper than the other. It will only stand straight up in portrait if on a flat surface, using the back cover to prop it up. My Nook will do either mode, I usually set on a surface and use the landscape mode.

There is no stand with which to watch movies, although in many cases, I just fold the cover back and it acts as a stand. But this is not the same as a good stand at all- the cover sometimes slips down while folded back, or the angle the fold back produces is wrong for viewing. The cover itself has no stand setup. NOT optimal for watching movies!

The case does stick out a little bit pass the screen. I guess it would depend on how much of a slant.

Yes it stands up on its own well enough that you could FaceTime or even watch something on it. I'm on my second of this type of case and love it.

I love my case - it fits perfectly and the angle is great for reading. Not steep at all - I only use mine in the upright position so cannot speak for the angle that looks flat. I would buy this case again, it asked.

It has a piece that is supposed to attach somehow to the case and work as a stand. I couldn't figure out how to use it. It is nothing like the stands available in some cases. If that is your biggest feature concerns. I would buy a different case. It had other better features such as being great combo of protection and slim design. My wife keeps it in here pocket with no problems. I definitely think it will with stand some drops.

It has 2 viewing angles. One, and the most secure, is about a 45 degree elevation. It makes use of a magnetic strip across the back to hold the position very well. The second sets the tablet in a tall position and is somewhat less secure. Both viewing angles are in the landscape orientation, not portrait. There is no closing mechanism but the flap clings nicely to the screen and will not open until you actually lift it off the screen. There is no place for a stylus. I find this to be EXCELLENT for travel. Actually it was the reason I bought it. My other cases were much bulkier and a nuisance to travel with. I've used nothing but this one since getting it. This is very sleek, offers great protection, and slips in and out of handbag or briefcase without opening. It is very well made and not junky plastic. I would highly recommend.

Yes, I bought this case and just tested it out. You are able to watch videos with the case closed/shut.

There is just the stand in back of case, but if you take keyboard out, and flip back it sits up higher, and is more steady for watching movies. However no muti- position locks. Hope this answers question.
