I'll give you my opinion on folding back the Oberon cover. I do have an Oberon cover but frankly, I rarely use it. I do feel like it's a little heavy, no way as heavy as a hardback book, but it is thick leather and a little heavy. The main reason I don't use the Oberon all the time is that it does not fold back flat. It does fold back, but it won't be flat when it's folded. For some reason that bothers me and keeps me from using it much.
But I'm a loyal Noreve cover owner, it's my favorite. I own 6 covers for my Kindle, but I use the Noreve almost all the time. It's sleek, and it folds back completely flat, it has a rail system so no corners or elastic pieces are showing on the front of my Kindle.
