The presented leather pouch offers an amazingly with 11.99 inexpensive, yet high-quality processed alternative. After you scroll down for the first variant 4.6 times, and the built-in light makes this difference is not compensated.
Differences to leather sleeve with reading light
- No built-in lighting
- The price a USB Premium EU / EN-charging plug is also included
- The company DURA GADGET are two-year guarantee on its sleeve, in the reading envelope with reading lamp, there are no guarantees information
- The cover is securely closed by a magnetic snap closure
- The lid is not laterally opened but two thin leather Fishing forward. There is a stand that locks into grooves 10 on the folded back cover on the back of the envelope. This creates a variable in the tilt stand to read freehand
- With about 130 grams of the shell is slightly lighter than the case with reading light (154 grams)
- The Kindle, we pushed through the open top narrow side of the casing
HANDLING
The Kindle is inserted from above into the shell and sits there at attention without slipping. The controls on the lower narrow side remain accessible via a recess in the shell. In the locking tab located under the leather two small round magnets are of a metal plate on the back (also under the leather) tightened and engage there. The flap can be opened easily, but still provides a secure closure, a service I always painfully miss in leather sheath with lighting.
To read the cover is folded back and attached to on the magnet at the back of the envelope. Here the reader cover with light is a little more comfortable in the hand, slipping in Dura gadget shell cover and the rest of the shell slightly against each other, a total of the envelope also acts much edgier. But this feeling is certainly subjective, the Kindle can if necessary with a handle of the sheath pull (which is a relatively complicated procedure in the leather cover with reading light) and can be used without a shell.
PROCESSING
The build quality is very solid, all edges are stitched all clean. Located bottom right on the front of a small metal plate with the logo of the company Dura gadget. The closure flap with the integrated magnet is a clever and original solution. Front and back are two layers and therefore very stiff and robust, the protection for transportation and storage is ensured. On the back there is the pressed seal of approval 'Genuine Leather', the use of synthetic leather 'as criticized in a review' would be therefore quite surprised.
READING RACK
On the front of the casing, a rectangular area of the top leather layer is recessed in the plane including 10 grooves incorporated, which serve as support for a stiff, fold-out flap on the rear panel. This system seems a bit wobbly at first glance, but is remarkably stable, in fact, the Kindle stands firm as the legendary German oak. By selecting the groove, the inclination of the device can be changed. I first held this function is needless and a gimmick, but now I read at my desk very happy freehand, the reading comfort increases by this possibility further. The next model is then probably a floating cover that automatically the same height and distance from the reader complies and responds to voice commands :-)
Conclusion: Here you can not complain, at such a sound processing this price is absolutely unbeatable really.
