Soon after, I managed to drop my replacement Aura at the ballet. It fell down into the row in front of me, so it fell a good six feet or more onto concrete and it survived without a scratch.

Now a phone, don't get me started.

I never had an eink face break or shatter. Only damage I had was from a nasty scratch on my 2010 Nook and I suspect that took some pressure. I am not taking the chance on the Kindle tho. I am kinda looking for a sleve
