You don't want to have to buy another Kobo because you thought reading without a case as a god idea. I'm not saying a case is 100% secure, but it's a lot more secure than not having one. I've read a lot of messages about broken Readers that were not in a case.
How significantly increased is the risk of it being broken?

By case I assume you mean cover? Both a sleeve and a flip open type of cover are a type of case.


FWIW I have used sleeve style cases since I got my Kindle Touch in 2011 and both that and my Kobo Aura HD are perfectly fine after many hundreds of books read.

I use sleeves that were originally designed for the first Fire tablet that I got super cheap on a sale and they've worked good for a few different readers and a couple 7" tablets. Nothing quite as nice as the sleeve the OP mentions, but they work okay.
