Fintie Slimshell Case for 6" Kindle Paperwhite 2012-2017 (Model No. EY21 & DP75SDI) - Lightweight Protective Cover with Auto Sleep/Wake (Not Fit Paperwhite 10th & 11th Gen), Black

The Fintie Slimshell Case is the perfect fit for my 6" Kindle Paperwhite (2012-2017). It’s lightweight but provides solid protection, keeping my Kindle safe from scratches and drops. The auto sleep/wake feature works seamlessly, and I love the dual-color design—it’s stylish and functional. The case isn’t bulky, making it easy to carry around. If you have an older Kindle Paperwhite, this case is a great choice! Highly recommend for its practicality and sleek look.

Perfect fit; nice workmanship; reasonably priced.

I want to begin this review by pointing out that this product listing is actually for 4 different types of cases: Old Folio, New Folio, Thick hardback, and Smartshell (thin hardback). I purchased the Smartshell, so I can only really speak to the quality of this case. When reading the negative/positive reviews -- note which case the reviewer is talking about! That's how I landed on this one :)My case was thin and light, and the Paperwhite popped in very easily and securely. The purple is a lovely grape color, which I like, although the pictured version looks more of a wine color. The case is truly a "shell"; it is thin plastic all around, and it snaps on like a phone cover might. It is subtly textured to grip easily, so it's not a slippery plastic. The inside cover that touches the screen is a light layer of felt. There is an inscription on the inside, "Be Different, Be Finite. Designed by Finite in USA," and a logo at the bottom. There are no logos or markings on the outside, however.The case feels strong and like it can protect the device. There is a magnetized closure that is secure, and it can put the device to sleep or wake it up, as the cover is opened/closed. The magnet is not too strong to open nor too weak to keep closed. It is inside the material of the cover itself and doesn't stick out. Additionally, the front cover can be easily wrapped around to the back for one-handed reading of the Kindle. It is easy to do this, and does not feel like I am damaging the cover at all.I have not experienced any issues with the magnet in the case putting the device to sleep randomly, as some reviewers have! I believe most of those reviews are using a different model. I will update this review if I experience that or any other problems.My boyfriend also has a Paperwhite, and his cover is an OMOTON. As of this writing, the OMOTON is slightly cheaper than this Fintie. His case is very similar to mine, and maybe a teeeeeny bit thinner/lighter. This one feels slightly sturdier. However, Fintie comes in a much wider range of colors, which was my reason for trying it. I think either of these items would serve you well.

The case is quality is very nice and the color is a beautiful rose.

I wanted to repurchase the Kindle case I had originally, wasn't available anymore😧. I wanted to keep the Tree of Life design so I got this one instead. I also realized after I bought this, I have the same cover for my Samsung Tablet.This cover fits my Kindle touchscreen 2016 (?) perfectly and has great access to the charging port. One thing I don't like: the front of the cover where the design is- feels sharp around the edges. Not going to cut your skin at all, just annoying to me and bothersome during long reading sessions. My old case had flat edges, which I liked better. After having this new case for about a month, I can say it seems very sturdy, was easy to install on my Kindle, fits well, easy to keep clean and the sleep feature works well. The inside of the cover that fits against the front of the Kindle when closed is soft to the touch which is great since it ends up behind the 'book' when folded back to read. I took a star away for the edges, otherwise, a good cover.

Fit perfectly, looks great. Replaced previous case that was 7 years old.

This fits my Kindle perfectly! It is light weight and very slim which means it fits well in a purse. The magnetic close is a nice feature, so you know the Kindle is always closed and off when you are finished reading. Would recommend it highly!!

Be very specific in ordering the right size for your Kindle model. I like this one for it's unique art design as well as hard case for protection. Feels sturdy and looks great. Unique artwoork
