Question on Glo HD Sleepcover

Josieb1 · 09-25-2015, 02:26 PM

Hi I bought a Kobo Glo HD today, I'm really taken by the purple Kobo Sleepcover but I have a question, I like to hold my ereader as a book, is there a way to fold back the right hand flap and keep it folded back without folding the left hand side back as well?

Also I've read that the pin hole is no longer covered, can anyone confirm that?

If your ereader cover has 4 corner straps to secure ereader to cover it is easy to install reader upside down might satsfy or not and magnet will be wrong position to turn off reader when cover is closed and cover spine/hinge will be on right side of reader.

Some covers have short vetical cut in bottom of spine/hinge so thumb of hand holding readet can hook threw this cutout in spine with cover open 180 degrees for easy secure holding of reader.

Thanks for your reply but I am asking about the official Kobo Glo HD cover, that has both a front cover and a right hand flap that folds over the front cover for closure. The cover does not have elastic straps.

I have the black Glo HD sleep cover. If you fold the small flap back first, it holds the other flap when you fold it back. It works well and doesn't feel to bad. And compared to the cheap cover I had for the Glo and used on the Glo HD, it is a much better cover.

Thank you, unfortunately I want to hold back the right hand flap without the front cover folding back as on the train I hold my ereader like a book. I guess I'll see what I can find on eBay for now. Thanks again.
