When I first saw that Instagram post, my reaction was "Yay, new firmware next week!", haha.

Agreed. That case looks like the cheap iPad cases you buy on AliExpress. I wish they would have gone with something closer to the Libra 2 and Sage SleepCovers, or even the Clara HD SleepCover.

He want the cover to protect the screen. I've seen covers that clipped onto the back of the device leaving the screen unprotected. In which case, unless you are complaining the back of the ereader is too slippery, you're just adding a decorative touch.
Admittedly, we have used iPad cases that are intended to protect from dropping and tossing such as the Super Shell and Ballistic Tough Case though the newer iPad cases are getting over priced. There were a couple of models that came with screen protectors but we've stopped using them since in most cases, an impact that cracked the screen protector also cracked the screen.

will the power/sleep/wake button be at the same location? Most likely since the case is magnetic, the power button need not be exposed... unless it will be at the back now. |

Having said that, I don't like the covers that cover the bezel. Last edited by ZodWallop; 08-31-2022 at 06:52 PM. |

I feel the same. I much prefer the "portfolio" covers to the "slim shells." In the case of the Kobo Clara 2E it looks like you can choose either style from Kobo, which is a good thing.
