I was happy to see that the first Kobo Libra cover has appeared at Aliexpress.

It's much cheaper than the official Kobo one (10.39 usd for the solid colors and 11.69 for the prints) and it looks just like the one I got there for my Forma, which has been fine. I ordered one in navy and one in rose gold (my Libra is white).

I already have the one from Kobo, in light gray. It's perfectly functional, but that's about all you can say for it. I only got it because I was too impatient to wait for the third party cases. It's overpriced, the gray is ok but lifeless, and it has the usual odd bubbly texture that Kobo seems to like.
