S3 Folio book cover

[gottria]

Found a good replacement for the over priced book cover. Amazon SPARIN Slim-Fit Smart Case Cover with Auto Sleep/Wake. Nice slim cover and has decent protection and doesn't slip out. No ridges to hold it at an angle but seems to hold fine. I added a s pen holder and so far this is my favorite. I'll get some pics up tomorrow of my custom pen holder.

"3. Built-in magnet enable the automatic sleep/wake up function, and the magnet also keep front cover firmly closed with your tablet screen"

That part bother me. The SPen uses electromagnetic induction to communicate with the tablet and any badly placed magnet will disturb it work.
I had a case for my Tab A with Spen that has a magnetic lock and I couldn't write close to the edge of the screen where the lock was.
Someone gave a very good idea how to adapt a S2 case for the S3 but they ran into the same problem.

Can u please tell us what is your experience with this case?
Do you notice any problems with the spen close to the edge where the magnet is?

No problems with the magnets and the S pen, works just fine. My pen holder mod is perfect, not the neatest but 100% functional. I took an old tablet case and stripped of the fake leather and cut it into a strip, using my trusty 3m 2 sided tape I attached to the right side of the case.

Why wouldn't the include the same clip for the folio? Or, radical thought... Offer it to purchase separately... What a concept!

It might be that the idea is that ok the bookcover the pen could be clipped to the spine.
