Review: Love Love, LOVE! - First off, do not let the month long shipping estimate scare you off. I ordered this item on January 28th, and recieved it February 6th; only 8 business days (2 days after I recieved my Kindle)! I live in south Texas so I was very suprised and happy to recieve this item so much faster than the March 1st estimate. As for the product, I could not be happier. It has a very slim profile and is made of high quality materials. I was initally concerned about the integrity of the small corner tabs holding the Kindel, but after recieving it I am happy to report that they are very sturdy and look as if they will stand the test of time. They securly hold the device and I have no worries of it falling out or becoming dislodged. As for installation, all you have to do is pop it in the tabs; nothing confusing in the slightest. Another feature I love is the automatic sleep function that is enabled when you close it. You can see it turn to 'sleep mode' when the case is about 1/2" from completely closing. When you open it back up the screen lights straight back to the page that you were on. As for materials, the form fitting leather is very rich and precisely cut to minimize bulk. The stitches are very tight and the suede interior is smooth when closed against the screen. It is extremely straight forward to transform the case into the angular reading stand; all you have to do is pop the bottom corner tabs off and bend the back panel at the premoulded crease line and voila- easy hands free reading from a table. When you do want to simply hold the device in front of you there is a handy elastisized handle on the back that you can slip your fingers under to minimize strain. I did find this strap to be slightly uncomfortable if I slid my entire hand under it; the most comfrotable way to hold it is to just stick about 1/2 of you fingers under it and wrap your thumb around the front of the Kindle. The elastic is very strong and will compress your hand uncomforably if you stick your entire hand under the strap, but with only a few fingers it is a perfect amout of hold and is comfortable/secure. The only point of concern in this case for me is the little elastic band on the top of the case that loops over one of the tabs to hold the two panels together while you read. It is just a simple little band of elastic that I fear over time may stretch and wear out. But it does seem fairly sturdy and thick and I believe it will hold up pretty well considering it's only job is to hold two leather panels together and it's not under much stress. Overall, I am EXTREMELY happy with my purchase and highly recommend it for anyone. I only wish they had more solid color options as most other cases do these days. Will buy again. *If my experience or opinion changes, I will update this review - Especially with the little elastic tab*
Review: Ultimate KIndle Paperwhite case, this is the real deal! - IGadgitz has a terrific case that really is the ultimate Kindle paperwhite case. Let me explain briefly, as Im not fond of exceedingly wordy reviews. This case is soft to the touch, has a clean, streamlined outside appearance, to go along with an elegant, practical inside look. The hand pouch is easy on the fingers, put together well and is one of the main reasons why I bought this case, in addition to the magnet cover, which turns the Kindle off/on. As a bonus, IGadgitz's case allows for placement in portrait mode, or what I like to call hands free. If you enjoy reading at a table, just unhook the bottom holders and flip over the other side of the case. It seems confusing but once you try it, its second nature. Another great reason which some may balk at is this case has a nice latch on it, so when I fold the case over, it neatly holds it in place, no unattractive elastic strap draped across the entire case! I also have the official desertcart case and I prefer this one because the official one lacks a hand strap and cant be used in true portrait mode, easel style. I do however, prefer the the way the original holds the kindle better, its more form fitting and a cleaner look as opposed to clasps. Both the official Kindle paperwhite and IGadgitz's cases are outstanding, but I much prefer the case that can do it all and still look elegant doing it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much does this case weigh?**
A: My scale puts it at 133g

**Q: Does this case fit the 2015 300 dpi paperwhite?**
A: I have a 2015 Kindle Paperwhite and I think it's a 212 dpi.  According to specs, it and the 300 dpi are the same size.  Mine fits the case beautifully and works great.

**Q: How much thicker does this case make the Kindle Paperwhite?**
A: I would say the cover would double the thickness of the Paperwhite, bringing it to 6/8 of an inch at it's thickest point, which is on the bottom where the charging plug is. It does give it good protection though, I used to worry about damaging the kindle before I bought this.

**Q: Is this product really shipped from the uk? if so shouldn't it say that on this page?**
A: I have owned three, all purchased thru Amazon and each was shipped from the UK directly to me.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything I wanted
*by A***T on April 22, 2016*

I probably spent too much time looking at and comparing options for a case for my new Kindle Paperwhite, and this wasn't the first one I ordered. I sent my first one back and tried this one. While I was initially hesitant because it seemed it would take a while shipping from abroad, the wait wasn't too long. But it was worth the wait. This case is EXACTLY what I wanted: * It is small and lightweight - more so than I expected actually. * The flap on the back fits my hand nicely. I actually tend to only slide 2-3 fingers through the flap, which is perfectly fine and comfortable. I've found that flap to be a really nice feature. * The ability to convert the case into a stand is also a really nice feature to have - I use it far more than I ever thought I would for "hands-free" reading * The case seems durable. I've had it a few months and have noticed no deterioration in quality at all. This case is a GREAT value for the price and the next time I need one I won't have to waste any time at all shopping - I'll get this one again.
