--it's big enough to protect the Tab all around its edges and corners
--the easel feature works well in both landscape (bend the case at the back) and portrait (remove a velcro sleeve and reposition it) modes
--it's real leather and soft padding inside
--it fits around all the cameras, connections, etc.
--the magnetic catch holding the cover in place is very subtle but seems strong enough to work well.
I am not sure if the back of the case, where it has to fold to use the landscape easel, will hold up to folding and refolding multiple times a day, which is what it will probably get from me. But it seems pretty sturdy, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt for now.
For now I think this is the case to get if you want real protection and a versatile easel function for your Tab 7.0 Plus. And the price is great--much less than the leather Kindle cases, which are very similar (the Kindle cases have a nicer leather smell, I have to admit).
The Amazon entry said "available Dec 28" when I ordered mine but I actually got it (shipped USPS) on December 9, which was a pleasant surprise.If you own the older Galaxy Tab 7.0" tablets, this is NOT for you because ports and jacks will NOT be in the correct locations. BUT if you own the newer Galaxy Tab 7in tabs, this case will work just fine.
The construction of this case is very well done. It feels sturdy. I can rest assured that the back of the tab won't get damaged by scratches. Only down side is I don't feel like there's enough "hard" parts, that if I were to accidentally drop it that there wouldn't be any damage. Besides protection from hardware damage, all of the ports, the IR function, microSD card access, buttons, cameras, and the Light Sensor are all available. I own the newer Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" One thing I don't like also is the speaker openings are only two little holes for each speaker, which drowns out the sound a little, but not a lot. The stand function works fine on flat surfaces. Trying to view it on the bed is a little difficult because the back of the cover that bends doesn't bend completely 90 degrees; more like 80 degrees because the leather and sew job is a little tight.
A cool feature is the case is a two in one. Once you have the Tab inside the case insert, you can actually remove it from the cover's Velcro and use it like that with just the leather case around the tab or you can re-attatch it to the cover portrait ways (see product picture). It's a very simple, but intuitive feature. The case insert is leather on the front, but the back is fabric so it can attach to the velcro. A downside to that is if you remove the tab from the cover, the underside can get dirty really easily. But I keep mine in the cover anyway.
Now I mentioned the case can be used for both the Tab 2 and Tab Plus 7.0" but ultimately it was made for the Plus model. The cut-outs are specifically aimed to accommodate the Tab 2 7.0"s rear camera's LED lights, and the front Speaker at the top of the Tab (opposite the Samsung Logo). Also the Tab Plus is a little thinner by only a couple mm, so the Tab 2 is a little more of a tighter fit. But none of those are deal breakers because the case fits perfectly fine when it comes to functionality and form.
So overall, again, this case is perfect for people looking to protect their new Galaxy Tab 7in from minor scratches on the back of their tab and want to be able to use the camera and access all of their ports and cards. It's just perfect!This case in perfect in every way. You have access to all the controls and making it an easel is perfect for reading or play some games. I am very happy with this case and at reasonable price.This case is well made except where it concerns corner protection, which is a tablet's weakest spot. The cover is measured out to cover the face and back of your tablet near exactly, but all four corners are left with zero protection. Six weeks in, my son dropped the tablet (Galaxy 7.0 plus) and shattered the screen on that entire corner. This was not a hard drop by any means.
Be aware, if you are looking for real tablet protection, you may want to look elsewhere. If your looking for a nice leather looking business cover, this case will suffice nicely. The manufacturer really needs to look at enclosing the corners with some sort of padded protection, its a shame to spend $25 on a screen protector and another $25 on this nice leather case, and then one drop from approx 2-3 feet negates everything.I recently purchased a Samusng Galaxy Tab 7.0 PLUS tablet and needed a cover for it. I didn't want to buy something flimsy and wanted it to be nice. This case is great! It has velcro on the inside so you can take the tablet out of the folder and change the position of it. It's all leather and it has a magnet on the inside so the flap doesn't fling open and possibly have something scratch the screen. I love the color that I picked (Magenta) I didn't want a boring color so I went with a hot pink and I love it!!! I would recommend this for anyone that has a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 PLUS tablet.
