This cover is fabric-coated at the front, and has a plastic tray that acts as a holder for the device at the back. The fabric coating is continued into an inset panel in the reverse of the tray.
The tray fits the Kindle snuggly. The device holder has cut outs running right the way along the top and bottom edges of the device. This means that the power button and charging port on the bottom edge of the device are always accessible – but the extent of the cut-outs leaves quite a lot of the device exposed. The tray could have covered a lot more of the device and offered better protection.
The fabric is quite a thick-feeling, textured canvas-style fabric. It’s black, but not uniform in colour and has a slight sheen to it. The texturing does help to make this anti-slip. Around the edges of the front cover the fabric is sealed with a sort of rubbery coating – and if this behaves like the seal on previous generations of Kindle cases I have owned, over time will start to peel off.
The cover folds over easily for one-handed reading, if this is how you like to hold your device, but doesn’t feel floppy if you prefer to hold this opened outwards book-like. The front cover isn’t padded, but has a soft-textured, light grey microfibre lining to help protect the device's screen. Auto wake works as it should.
For me, this seems a little on the expensive side for the build quality and level of protection offered.
