For comparison, the Sony cover folds back without problem. The part of the cover that forms the "front" and the "back" of the case has some type of stiff "insert" in it, but the "hinge" part of the cover doesn't, and is soft leather, so it freely folds without creasing.
I don't normally bother folding it back, though. It's so light-weight that it's easy to read one-handed with the cover open like a book.
