Found an excellent Oasis cover
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got this in red leather and just love it. It compliments the champagne gold. It has a small sticker that helps the magnet stay in place. Makes my Oasis look real classy and thin and makes the back even with that thick edge or what ever you call it so it feels better in your hand when you read |

It is a nice case from what I can see, but I find the slim cases too hard to hold. I went with the moko case where the kindle slides in from the top. It is more sturdy and easier to hold, and doesn't feel like it is cutting my hands.

I bought that exact one made of cloth instead of leather. The sticker held for 1 day, then it let go, and I dropped my brand new Oasis. Left a review, and stopped using it. Got some non-English speaking response from the maker that had nothing to do with my issue.
The so called magnet does nothing. |

I also bought the one made of cloth. I don't use the sticker, because most of the time I like to read without a cover. There are no sharp edges and when you fold the case it is very comfortable to hold. I had no problems with the magnets so far. Excellent cover for the Oasis.

I have had the cloth one for a year or so. I love it, and was just thinking about picking up one of the leather ones, since there is a 20% off coupon running right now. I do not use the sticker, and never had a problem with it falling out of the case, unless I pick it up at an odd angle. I highly recommend it.

Glad you mentioned that 20% off coupon, Avwriter. I just ordered the red leather one. I hope it is real leather. My Oasis deserves a Christmas present.

So far no slippage, sticker is holding rock solid even after removing it from the device and putting it back on. I find it makes the device easier to hold for the back side feels flat for the cover is even with the kindle bump

That is the one I have, looks great with the champagne gold. I believe it is real leather. Feels real and it is velvet soft |

It doesn't show scratches or marks like real leather and feels soft and smooth. |

That is the exact combination I bought back in April, and it remains my favorite to use at home.
I used the sticker myself, as I often prefer to read without the case. The magnet in mine is strong enough to hold steady without it. When traveling, I use this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077PK4W1L/ to provide extra protection to the back and sides. |

I have this one as well, it was my third attempt at finding the perfect cover and the closest to perfect. I got the one with the library picture on it - also looks great with the champagne gold Oasis. No issues with using it with the magnet alone - I often take the cover off for reading in bed, but I can also hold it by the front cover alone, dangling & shaking it over the bed and that magnet holds tight.
