I love the zagg folio I have it on both of my ipads the mini and the Air and I wouldn't change them for any other. THe hinge is great I can set the angle of the ipad for maximum comfort when typing. I don't mind at all that it doesn't fold back in fact I like having the keyboard section to hold onto or to brace against me if I am lying down reading, again the fact that you can move it makes it even better for getting it to stand on my stomach while reading in bed. Very versitile indeed. Hope this helps you decide if you have any specific question feel free to ask me.
