BizMate PRO Zippered Portfolio Organizer with 9-10.5" Conference Folder/Padfolio Tablet Holder, A5 Notebook | Multiple Pockets, Leather Finish, Eco-Mailer

A great idea, let down by poor quality.I bought this to fit a 10.4 inch tablet , which it does perfectly. The elastic / metal corner holders that secure the tablet are clever and work just as advertised securing the tablet well. The little notebook and the myriad of pockets and assorted bits and pieces are also excellent. So I was truly disappointed when the zipper that holds it all together broke on the second day, thus defeating the purpose of this all in one binder. I think this is a case of the ‘weakest link’ bringing down the entire product. Not that I expect the designers to read this, but please invest in higher quality components and your product will be so much better. Guess you get what you pay for, and although this binder wasn’t exactly cheap, with a broken zipper it is now worthless :(Edit:Well, what do you know? A month after this review , the supplier of this product contacted me and offered a full refund :) In this day and age, having someone actually read and respond to a review is amazing , so a big shout out and thanks for some excellent customer service.Understanding that the problem above was pretty rare (judging from other reviews) and knowing now that the supplier really does care, I will order a replacement and be a happy customer. Thanks :)

It was exactly what I wanted. However I didn't realize how bulky it would be. It is perfect other than that.

The first thing I noticed when I opened the very well packaged tablet cover was that it was well made, extremely sturdy and very professional looking too. It holds my tablet perfectly and there's also a pocket for my cell phone and calculator that I need on the sales floor. My business cards are neatly stored in the sleeves intended for just that and I always have 2 pens at my fingertips stored in the booklet as well. As soon as my coworkers saw mine there was a huge influx of this product in my work place because everyone loves it so much. I especially love that I can completely zipper the book closed, even with all that stuff inside, and carry it like a small handbag when I don't need to use the tablet. One word of caution: once this is all loaded with my required work materials the booklet is quite heavy for something I need to carry with me at all times. Initially my shoulders hurt from carrying this larger and heavier booklet but I learned to live with it because the organization is so nice and does make my job easier. If there was anything I could change about it I would look for color next time. Now that all my coworkers have bought one too it's easy to misplace the book and pick up someone else's. I fixed that by attaching a huge charm to my zipper that reflects my personality. The book is a winner and I have no doubt it's going to last for years despite the abuse it has to endure on the sales floor.

This review is for the Cooper Cases 7" - 8" Padfolio Case.I purchased this case to house an Ematic 8" Windows 10 tablet Ematic EWT826BK HD 8" Intel Quad-Core 32GB Tablet with Windows 8.1. The case has four corner tabs inside the front cover that hold the tablet in place. The tabs are plastic and attach to the case via elastic straps.That's one of the features that could use some fine tuning, IMO - the elastic is REALLY tight to stretch and an 8" tablet has it pulled to the max. A little more leeway would make it less likely to damage the tabs and put less strain on the tablet itself. The Ematic fits, but I had some concerns that the pressure was too much when I intially installed the tablet. I don't plan on taking the unit out of the case frequently, but I would have some reservations in doing so - the tabs are that tight.The other area of concern is the included pen - Cooper thoughtfully includes a small ink pen (with a touch-stylus point on the other end of the pen). However, I managed to snap the retaining clip off of the pen within a couple of minutes. The clip was so tightly bent onto the pen barrel that in trying to remove it from the leather loop in the case the clip broke right off of the pen. Like the elastic tabs, it would be nice if Cooper could make that pen retaining loop just a tad larger, to make inserting/removing the pen easier. I replaced the pen with a larger stylus, clipped to the spine of the case where the A-5 pad is mounted.The fit and finish of the case is good (considering the market price); there are a couple of rough stitches on mine but nothing objectionable.On the outside back of the case there is a zippered compartment (the two zippers, by the way, work very well on the case). It's quite tight but can be used for holding a note or two.Inside the tablet there are pockets for business cards, as well as a transparent pocket for an I.D. card and two pockets for smartphones or calculators (my Samsung Galaxy Core Prime fits perfectly, a larger phone may not).There are also a couple of internal pockets for holding papers; I'm using one to hold a Fintie keyboard Fintie Ultrathin (4mm) Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard for Windows (Microsoft Surface/ HP Stream 7 / HP Stream 8 / Dell Venue 8 Pro/ Lenovo IdeaTab Miix 2 /ThinkPad 8/ Toshiba Encore/ Acer Iconia W4/ Nokia Lumia 2520/ Asus ViVoTab), 7-Inch Black that I had left over from a Dell Windows tablet. It fits perfectly in the Cooper case and pairs with the Ematic tablet.One improvement to the case design I'd like to see - Velcro straps that can be used to hold the tablet cover open in landscape mode. As it is I have to prop the case cover open using some object behind it in order to keep the case from going completely flat. Flat is sometimes to be desired (as when taking notes on the A5 pad), but if there was a built in way to hold the lid open then I could use the bluetooth keyboard to run the tablet while keeping the screen propped up for viewing.The external material is cloth, except for the hand grip on the binding edge of the tablet - that's a leather material.Overall an excellent case (again, considering the market price), and it will allow me to bring a minimum setup into meeting rooms (YMMV). I'm semi-retired and so carrying a single padfolio case with a tablet and A-5 notepad into meetings will be a pleasure compared to schlepping a briefcase or laptop bag.HTHRegards,Jim
