Great Companion for new Paperwhite

I've purchased third party covers for previous Kindles that have been efficient, but I purchased the Amazon cover for my last one a couple of years after using the third party one. Amazon's covers are definitely a nicer quality. Both times purchasing the Amazon covers I have purchased used ones and you can't even tell they're not brand new. This cover for the 10th Generation offers a very seamless protection. I got the Merlot cover, and as others have said, it's not really a burgundy color. It's more of a brown, with a hint of red. I find it quite lovely. I also like how on this model of cover, when folded over, the cover is magnetic and attaches to the back of the cover, so there's no "flapping". It's a small improvement from my previous Amazon cover, but is really a nice feature. Great design, Amazon!

This is arguably better than my Oasis 2. In comfort and electronics

I bought this latest edition of the Paperwhite for my wife. Not only is it waterproof as my Oasis 2 is, it really is easier to handle (I forgot how easy). The lighting is as good as the Oasis 2, the page turn is even better as since I've received my Oasis 2 its frustrating as it constantly skips pages and turns pages on its own. Unlike the rest of Amazon, Customer Service on Kindle is not the equal of the rest of the company's team of CSRs so I've learned to live with it. As an early adaptor of Kindle and a heavy useer. I'd strongly recommend the purchase of the Paperwhite over the Oasis 2. and it pains me to say that, not because of the significant price delta, rather because I just expect more from Amazon.

Fantastic case with one (glaring) fault!!

I ordered this case, in black, when I ordered my Paperwhite 10th generation kindle and then showed up on the same day in the same box! All I had to do was open the box, slide it out of the box, and removed the paper and it was ready to go! I then slid it onto the back of my kindle and it just slides in place. There in lies my problem, I cannot get the darn thing off! I wanted to have a separate color (the red one!) and rotate cases. I guess that option is dead. All in all, the case is fantastic! The leather is soft and grips easily, the build quality is exactly what you would expect for the price! Buy it and hopefully, love it forever!

Slightly smaller

this is slightly smaller than the prior generation. I have yet to try the wireless headphone option for audible books but I bet it works great. I think it starts slightly slower myself. I do miss the bars on the sides to change page. I am now getting the 3G and it is so handy in an odd place like an airport or even out of country (limited downloading) to get the next book. I am sure that in a few years there will be a new generation and the line of people waiting for my old one never stops. Without Kindle I might read a few books per year, now it is closer to a few books a month. Darn, prime and there free books and my authors keep on churning out my read next installments. It is hard to go back to my print books and I have a lot from the last 40 years to catch up on.

Beautiful!

I ordered this with my new paperwhite. The fit is perfect and I feel like it gives good protection. It’s much prettier in person than the picture. ... a very nice rich color.

Convenience

I'm an avid reader of novels and I've always loved the feel of holding a book while I'm reading but decided maybe it was time to try the new Kindle. It's more convenient to take with me since it's not as bulky as book. The choices of print, size of print, the immediately availability of books and other options are great. I'm still learning all the options available to me but at present I've just jumped into reading books and enjoying the Paperwhite Kindle.

Love the convenience

This my first Kindle, so I may not be a good reference for a review because I have no prior basis of comparison. However, I can say that having this Kindle has made me to want to read even more. I love how lightweight it is and how it fits nicely in my purse. I can take it everywhere I go, and when I have downtime, instead of wasting my time on social media, I can read a book instead. Surely, I could have accessed the Kindle app on my phone all this time, but I found that caused a lot of eye strain. I love how the Kindle Paperwhite has adjustable light settings, even can invert to white text on black screen if you want. It is very comfortable to read for my eyes as well as my neck and shoulders. Some physical books can get heavy after a while, and the Kindle is so light that it doesn't pull on my arms and shoulders as much. If that makes sense to anyone. All and all, the Kindle Paperwhite is light and comfortable for reading, and the convenience and accessibility to thousands of books is amazing. I love it! So far it is working really well. I've only had it a couple days and have read a book and a half, and my batter is still at 75% without charging since the first charge. Like I said, I'm a first time Kindle user, and I'm very happy with this product - I just can't compare it to other kindles or e-readers.

Perfect size!

I've been using the Kindle Paperwhite for about a month now and I have had no complaints whatsoever about this device. It is my constant companion. I carry it in my purse everywhere. It's a bonus that it's waterproof since I do enjoy reading while soaking in the tub to unwind after a long day at work. I absolutely love that the Goodreads app is included with it. I use Goodreads a lot to manage what I'm reading and what will be released by my favorite authors. I will definitely be using this product for a long time.

Very nice Paperwhite cover!

I purchased the Merlot cover. It is a nice dark burgundy/crimson, almost brown color. The Paperwhite fits snuggly and securely inside the bottom portion of the case. It has a nice texture and the front cover folds back. The front cover secures to the back with a magnet. The Paperwhite has not fallen out of it, even after shaking it with the cover open. The inside top cover is very soft and comfortable. Reading with the top cover folded back is a breeze. The case and Paperwhite are so light it is no problem reading with just one hand and using my thumb to change pages. I own several Kindle ereaders including the Oasis 1 and 2, Paperwhite 2, as well as the Voyage. I have cases for all of them. This a better cover than the Oasis 1 and 2. This cover is very nice, comfortable to hold while reading and I recommend it!

Perfect case for the newest Paperwhite!

This case fits the newest Paperwhite perfectly without adding any bulk to the Kindle. The magnetic closure ensures that it doesn’t open accidentally, and the cover can easily be folded back for easy reading. The color Indigo Purple is more blue than purple, but in my opinion, a beautiful color. The cover, when closed, puts the Kindle to sleep, and when opened, wakes the Kindle up. It’s the perfect case for the new Paperwhite.
