- Does it wake and sleep the reader automatically?
- Yes. The magnet in the front flap wakes the reader when you open it and puts it to sleep when you close it.
- Which Kobo models does it fit?
- It is made for Kobo's 6-inch readers, including the Clara models. Check the model listed for your device before buying, since sizes differ across the range.
- Can it stand the reader up for hands-free reading?
- Yes. The front flap folds back into a stand, which is handy at a table. The angle is fixed, so it is not adjustable.
- Does it protect the back of the reader?
- Only partly. The cover wraps the front and back, but the corners and edges are not heavily cushioned, so it is not a rugged case.
- Is it worth it over a cheaper third-party case?
- If you want an exact fit and reliable sleep/wake, the first-party cover is the safer choice. Third-party cases cost less but vary in magnet strength and fit.
- Does it add much weight?
- It adds little, but the reader plus cover is noticeably heavier than a bare device when held one-handed for long sessions.
