Omoton vs ACcase
I have ordered and received a case/cover for my Voyage from each of these companies.
The ACcase was warped when I got it, but a suggestion to put it in the sun with a heavy book on it helped to modify the warp. The PU leather on the case is very well done. Nicely done power button cutout on the back. The case is a little touchy about being exactly in the right position when closed to turn off the light. An e-mail thru Amazon to the company telling them about the warping resulted in no reply after 10 days. This was ordered before I got my Voyage and received from Hong Kong in about a week. Shipping was $9 with the case costing 8.
The Omoton case is lighter than the ACcase. It also seems to be better constructed as it seems tighter all around. The PU leather is patterned (I got the blue one) so has less of a leather look. Also has a nicely done power button cutout on the back. This case is reminiscent of the Amazon Paperwhite case, but does not seem as heavy or hearty (I just sold my PW2 with case so cannot compare). Cost was $8 with free prime shipping.
Of the two, I liked the Omoton more on first sight. While the ACcase is now usable, I was disappointed in the warping when received and the failure to at least acknowledge my email.
The Omoton will be my everyday case with the ACcase as a backup. Total cost of the two cases including shipping was $25, which is well below the BestBuy price for the Amazon Origami case at $40.
