All-new Amazon Kindle Paperwhite and Amazon Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition Case, Lightweight and Foldable Protective Cover – Plant-Based Cover

Bought for daughter’s birthday. Excellent update from her old one and very well-received.

I am enjoying the paperwhite as a replacement for my old kindle which was getting tired and charge not lasting long. Going the ability to adjust the tone of the background and that I can read in low light.

This is a replacement for my wife's old kindle on which the charging dock failed and was going to cost nearly £40.00 to repair.The Kindle is easy to use and read and does not strain her eyes like the phone. She is well pleased.

The media could not be loaded. I didn’t want to spend £42.99 on a case but with amazon ‘surprise’ releasing of the new kindles no other cases have been readily available (unless you’re happy for them to ship directly from china) so I didn’t have much choice. It is a lovely looking case that does the job of protecting my kindle, but I’m not sure it’s worth the price tag.The case offers plenty of protection with hard shell edges and a sturdy front cover. The inside of the cover is also a felt like material keeping the screen safe from scratchers.The magnets hold the cover in place when closed and when folded back, plus it puts the kindle in sleep and wakes it again quickly when opening and closing.My only issue is that along the left hand side the case doesn’t fold back completely, so it feels bulky to hold with my left hand. It’s fine when holding in my right as that side stays flat due to the magnets. I’m hoping that over time the material will soften and with plenty of folding it will eventually sit flatter… but for now it feels uncomfortable in my left hand. It also adds quite a bit of extra weight (110g - half the weight of the kindle itself) which is to be expected for the protection but is notable.The overall look of the case is really nice though! It’s sleek and I love the colour. The outside is nice and soft too and pleasant to hold.Overall I’m glad I got this as I do feel that my kindle is much safer now, but it seems a tad over priced especially as there are no other real options out there other than the official Amazon Kindle cases right now.

Great

Check the item description carefully to avoid disappointment. You’re only buying a case for a Kindle Paperwhite. You do not get the later included as the description implies.

Delighted with this. Previously used an iPad for reading which was remarkably heavy. The Kindle by comparison is very light and the lighting is variable both in brightness and warmth of light. I highly recommend this Kindle.

This feels cheap. For the comparison photo, I have placed my 2012 Paperwhite case (right) next to my new one (left).The old PU case was properly cushioned, had a nice metal clasp and actually felt robust - and is still protecting my Kindle after twelve years.Those one feels like it will last a couple of months. I'm a going to look for a better (vegan) option.
