That Noreve case looks lovely. Are the color swatches relatively accurate representations of the actual colors?

This is only the third cover I've purchased from them, but they've all been 'black' in my choice, so I can't speak to the color issue.

These are such high-quality covers - the best covers I've ever seen.

Personally, I don't think you would be disappointed in a color choice, but you might try sending them an email. They're very professional.

I still have the wonderful case for my older Kindle 2 (which is currently in Arkansas).

Here's the one I ordered, from Noreve, for my Kindle Voyage:

Amazon Kindle Voyage leather case
Model : Tradition B - 15612TB20/f
Finishing : Ambition
Leather exterior colour : Ebène ( Sleek P C12 - Black )

http://www.noreve.com/en/kindle-voya...yage&results=1

Their cases are exquisite!


I had a Noreve case for a Pocket PC several years ago but I'd forgotten all about them.

I see that they also have covers for the Kobo Aura H2O and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 models. I think I'll have to add a cover to my Christmas list -- if I can just make up my mind about which device, which type of leather and which color.

Black is not under consideration.

I have a blue Noreve for my old DX - it's a beautiful case.

Does anyone know if the current Noreve case for the Voyage has the auto on/off feature?

I don't know, since mine has yet to ship. (It's being made with special leather.)

Perhaps someone else knows?

Regularfries--
Where are you located? Have you tried doing a search on Amazon for covers? In the US, they have several different styles--not just Amazon branded ones. And some that look very similar to the one you posted.

I just got my Noreve cover.

Absolutely gorgeous case, beautifully made and worth every penny. And more, I would happily suggest.

Highly recommended.

This is the kind of case that makes you really, really want to hold the Voyage.

Hokayy, now that you've had time to explore the features of the gorgeous looking Noreve, does it have the auto on/off cover feature? The Voyage retention in the case by magnet feature? Is the easel function effective? Which material did you choose, and is the black a deep neutral black?

I haven't been able to find a good comprehensive review of the Noreve case, and I'd certainly like to see one; the case is very tempting.

I will second Kulamata's request...can you provide a short review?

The Noreve case is in the same price range as the Amazon case so since it is a book style instead of over the top I am considering it instead. I have 2 main concerns/questions about it. First, I am used to having a felt or microfiber inside of the cover to help protect the screen from scratches. Any concerns about the card pockets picking up something and scratching the screen? Second, does the snap closure on the right side interfere with holding the Voyage with your right hand and using that page turn button? Can it be tucked in between the cover if you flip the cover all the way around to hold it out of the way easily? Is that comfortable?

Thank you!

No, it does not have the on/off feature. However, the button is quite accessible and easily reached. ---- Let me make an additional post, in a few hours, to answer your questions.

There's absolutely no excuse for a case manufacturer not to include a magnet to activate the auto-sleep facility. That's a major flaw, to my mind.

Not sure if anyone cares, but I went ahead and got the case that I had been eyeballing several months ago. I have to say I've been very happy with the purchase. It's much more comfortable to hold one handed than the standard "book style" cases, IMO, and easy to use with either hand. I haven't used the strap much, but it's nice to know the option is there.

And I agree with HarryT, any case should really include a magnet these days, especially a "premium" one. This case does include a magnet and I've had no issues with it. It also looks like it's come down in price since I made my purchase. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a new case for their Voyage, especially if like me, they find holding it one handed to be not quite ideal with a traditional case.

I've had the same case as above for over a year now, thought I'd mentioned it in thread but on phone so to hard to check.
It's great case, getting a bit knocked about now and strap is getting a bit slack but definite bargain in my opinion.
