I've noticed that the material on the inside of the cover can trigger a touch event from the device. What it does depend on what part of the screen the cover touches before sleep mode kicks in. I've now learnt to avoid pressure on the cover while closing to avoid these phantom touches. Annoying but not a deal breaker.

The included instructions about using the cover as a stand make it clear that the top magnet should hold the top of the cover in the open and folded back position. I've found that to stand any chance of that happening I have to squeeze the fold hard against the device to properly align the magnet with the metal and even then the hold is weak. The bottom magnet appears to have a much stronger attraction but that one is redundant in stand mode.
