I'm dull. I just get the Navy one, every single time.

(The really rough one on the smaller tablet I've had since 2016. Great case, great tablet. Both still work and are used daily.)

You must have ordered the Signature model. I ordered (thanks copyrite) the regular model late last night and it is coming about February 15th. My new cover is to arrive in two days, Wednesday.

If the photo of the PW5 with the screen protector is anything to go by, don't use the screen protector as it looks to make the text a washed out grey shade.

Well it $20 compared to the others Amazon is offering... $30-$40

I had one of these on my Kindle Fire 2nd Generation!
Here are some nice covers that are no more then $20.99. They are from kwmobile. I have one of their covers for my H2O which is roughly the same size as the PW5. And they have a font cover.

I got really good PW3 covers about €12 inc shipping & VAT on Amazon, back when PW4 was just released.

The price of covers has got crazy.

Amazon’s got a MoKo sleepcover for the Paperwhite for $12.99. I like MoKos; they’re very similar to Fintie.

It’s against my religion to spend a lot of money on covers; prices are ridiculous. I generally won’t go over $10, but for a quite recent device and given how everything’s more expensive, I’d probably get the MoKo.

The trusty Navy cover is $19 for MoKo and $16 for Fintie. Just saying...

Thanks for the cover suggestions. I did break down and purchase the Signature model after posting the link. Still debating the cover as I'd prefer slimmest possible, but am considering a stand. Not a rush since the PW doesn't look like it will be here before the middle of March.

3 years of daily reading is a good bit of wear and tear on a cover. Sometimes multiple times per day or opening and closing etc. If I spend $11-14 on a cover, and it lasts 3 years, I wouldn't be upset. However, the Fintie I bought in 2019 is still in perfect shape.

Moko is the company that made the covers I was dissatisfied with. I won't buy another of theirs.

My Finte wore out as well. It did not last long enough. There is no way I would ever buy another Finte or recommend no matter what the price.

Jon will be along in a second complaining about how his wore out twelve years ago. But I use these babies on my tablets, Nooks and Kobos. They're great.

Got email telling me they are jacking up the price of my FREE monthly trail for Prime to $15. So, I cancelled it. Now wondering what is going to happen to my PW5 order... anyone have a clue?
