I've heard that magnets aren't good for computers. Has anyone had any issues with their computers from carrying them in a magnetic case?

It depends if your device is solid state or not. If it is solid state that means there are no moving parts so the magnets wont hurt anything. If your device is not solid state then you should power it completely off every time you store your laptop and move it. And if you do this properly, the magnets shouldnt have any affect on it. Also, the magnets are very small and not really what Id consider any threat to your device.

Magnets are not great for hardrives. If you have a mac book air you have a solid state drive that is not as susceptible as old school spinning disc drives. After several months we have no complaints.

The magnetic clasp is VERY STRONG and sticks right away when you near the two magnets together. I was actually surprised of how strong the magnet is to the both of them, and very good question by you. Now, with the Macbook Pro 15; without the disk drive, the laptop itself is BARELY loose, perhaps like less than an inch! So you don't have to worry of the laptop wallowing around while you walk with the case. I yet have not been disappointed with this case. I hope this helps you.

That's a good Q. I wondered the same. Even if it is a bit magnetized, I don't think it should make any difference. How about turning it around regularly ?? Or flip it over ....?? Stev

Hi Ana R.!Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) The magnet should have no effect whatsoever on your device.

No. I've used this case for about 4 months now. My phone hasn't suffered any effects from the magnet. It's a great, sturdy case.

No. Which is good because magnets are bad for credit cards you would potentially put in the little pockets. There is also a bigger pocket, kind of how a wallet has that space for cash. I hope I made sense with my description.

In my experience I would say absolutely not. I'm not sure what effects the magnet theoretically could have on it (i.e. music skipping or something), but I have close to 2,200 songs on mine (16gb) and I have not seen any negative effects at all.

Good question, I dont have an answer for that. I know magnets can ruin hard drives. I believe the magnet placement under a desk for the wpn would be goode because the wood desk would block the magnet effects.

I've had this on my phone for a few months with no issue, I generally try to be cautious around the laptop and things with spinning hard drives, as the magnet is pretty powerful (which is awesome) I also try to be careful with credit cards, but I've definitely stuck them in the same pocket a few times, and they all still work. The magnet can also easily be taken out to eliminate any possibility of damage.

Good question. No idea, but i would keep it away from magnetic storage to be safe. I do know that the motherboard and memory of phones are not hurt by this mat.

Do NOT use this for a PC because it's magnetic! It's fine if you use it to seal a PC tower, but I really don't recommend using it for a hard drive.

The screen has a very low strength magnet similar to a flexible fridge magnets. The screen is intended for the exterior of the computer case and would have no effect on internal components.

no magnets that i can see. it fits right on the case and the tablet fits in a pocket across from it and will look like a laptop when you use it. but i would make sure there is a screen protector on the tablet. i like mine. hope this helps..nancy gregor

No... and don't EVER purchase ANY cover for ANY electronic device that has a magnet closure. Devices with computer chips and memory cards, such as smart phones, notes, pads, etc., can have their components and memory damaged by magnets.

No I have not had problems with the magnets ruining one of my cards but I have had problems with I guess the magnets in the case preventing certain apps from working. Also another problem that I had is when you talk on the phone in the case because of the magnets in it it's hard to hang up a call like you really have to press two buttons that one time to be able to hang up a phone call while it is in the case

I've worn mine while working on my laptop and smartphone and had no trouble other than the typical bracelet being pushed into my arm when in contact with the laptop. I've never had a problem with the magnets affecting the computer systems.

I would say no, in reference to your question. There are magnetics used in the cable connection for the computer on top. But I am sure totally by what you are meaning.
