I only know that in the cheap "click in" covers, the so called slim fit ones, the magnet to put it in sleep isn't strong enough.
My old cover of my normal Glo, sometimes doesn't put it to sleep, it looks like the screen glass is a bit thicker and doesn't turn it off, the magnet in the original cover is more powerful. It does work when you positioned it tight at the closing magnet, if it is closed when the flap/lid is to much on the right side and stick a few mm over it, it doesn't activate the sleep mechanism, where it works perfect on the old normal Glo. So when I close the cover I slightly move the lid a little bit to the left and then it works perfectly.
