Gylint Kobo Libra H2O Origami Case, The Thinnest and Lightest Leather Smart Cover Case for New Kobo Libra H2O 2019 Release with Auto Wake Sleep Feature Tower

I’m really glad I picked out this cover; I’ve B. I got the travel themed one with an Eiffel Tower on it. Fits my Kobo Libra perfectly, is a nice quality, and does the origami folding to prop up the reader. If I could suggest one upgrade, it’d be to make the magnets strong enough to keep the cover open and folded back like normal. I suggest this because the cover will constantly fall open otherwise.

To get rid of that extra weight, I tried taking the cover off when indoors, but finally gave up: not an easy task, to shell a reader.

This Gylint brand case will probably work for most people and is cheaper than the original Kobo brand case, but I was able to do a direct side-by-side comparison between this case and the Kobo Libra H2O SleepCover Case since I ordered them both. The Gylint brand case feels very thin overall and has a flexible rubbery backing while the Kobo case has a hard plastic backing. Both cases seem to weigh about the same. The Kobo cases front is definitely a thicker material and will likely provide better protection if something pushes against the area of the screen in my bag or something is accidentally set on top of it. Most important to me is that the Kobo case magnets are MUCH stronger than the Gylint case: when you swing the Kobo case all the way around the cover sticks to the backside just fine, but not so with the Gylint case. Overall, the Kobo case, although more expensive, is definitely of a much better quality overall and I really like the vibrant blue color, so Im keeping it and returning the Gylint case.
