Lostinabook Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I am getting a Kindle Paperwhite for Christmas and am waffling about the case. I'd like to get one with a stand for reading at the table, but I will also use it for reading in bed, so I don't want the cover to be super heavy/bulky. If you have a cover, which one has worked well for you? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Florida. Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 All three of us have Paperwhites and we each have this Moko case, in different colors so we can easily grab our own. Dh and I each read in bed at night. He leaves the case on. I sometimes take it off but only because I usually have arm pain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SorrelZG Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I have bought Finitie smartshells for all our kindles. No stand, though. http://www.amazon.com/Fintie-Kindle-Paperwhite-SmartShell-Case/dp/B009S2CXLK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I DON'T have a cover at all on mY Kindle but am able to use it at the table by propping it up with other stuff to just the angle I want just fine. (I just got a Kindle Voyager and was originally going to get a stand. Until I realized that I never used the stand on my ipad mini because it isn't the right angle. SO... Just having a stand does not guarantee it is at the proper angle for what you prefer.) Edited December 3, 2015 by vonfirmath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's supposed to stand in landscape mode when I turn the case to the back, but it can slide flat. I do like it though. It's really light. ...Think about that stand again.

Plus the stand I linked has three different 'stops' to give you three different angles (the angle rarely matters and usually is related to the height of whatever I'm standing it on. I use it all the time when I'm reading while eating at the table. It also sits on the arm of my couch just right.

Lostinabook Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Thank you all! The Moko was the one I was considering, so I'll ahead & buy it. I am so looking forward using to a less glowy e-reader! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
