The best Kindle cases of 2024: comfort, style, value

When you're unsure about buying a Kindle case, it's better to go with the original: Amazon's fabric Kindle case is perfect for keeping your Kindle secure, and its lightweight, stylish design keeps your Kindle safe from any mishaps that might occur while on the go.

Though not the most eccentric design, this classic Kindle cover is perfectly ideal for readers looking for an understated, slim and protective cover. It also helps save battery life thanks to its 'sleep' mode, which activates when the cover is closed.

Highly rated amongst Kindle users, and truly high-quality, Amazon's Kindle is a phenomenal choice at a slightly higher price than most, but for a premium case, it's more than worth it.

A favourite amongst Kindle readers, the CoBak clamshell case protects your library's worth of novels, all the while looking masterfully subtle and sharp.

Comprised of PU leather for a tough shell exterior, fibreglass for high-strength, low-weight protection and a plush microfibre interior so your Kindle remains scratch-free after years of use, the CoBak case perfectly combines everything you'll need out of a Kindle case into one affordable package.

Though some may consider the case a little dull, there are a number of colours available, so you're spoilt for choice.

In my Kindle 2022 review, I had the chance to test this brilliant case, and I certainly wasn't disappointed - it's now my primary choice for keeping my Kindle safe, and it's lasted me well, despite facing a variety of dangers.

If a flip-cover Kindle case isn't your style, and you're looking for something cheap and low-key, TQQ's clear Kindle case might be the perfect choice for you.

This simple, transparent case fits snugly around the Kindle, leaving it open to customise, should you wish. Some users add their own designs behind the transparent case, with many opting for stickers to create a personalised look, but a clean look is also particularly appealing.

Of course, having a folding design provides less protection for your Kindle screen, which is perhaps the most important part to protect, but for us, any level of protection is probably a good thing.

Cheap, clean and cheerful, the TQQ clear Kindle case is an affordable choice for any Kindle reader, regardless of budget.

When it comes to using a great e-reader, comfort is king: and few Kindle cases offer more comfort than the VOVIPO Kindle case, a brilliant choice with a versatile quirk up its sleeve.

Rather than place an obvious pop-out stand on its rear, the VOVIPO Kindle case uses some nifty origami-esque folding to prop itself up, and its seamless design looks brilliant. Perfectly propping up, VOVIPO's Kindle case is great for hands-free reading, pairing well with a great Kindle accessory to allow for total reading comfort.

One strange quirk of the VOVIPO Kindle is its unfortunate landscape feature, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense on the basic Kindle 2022 model. The Kindle 2022 model cannot rotate to landscape mode, rendering it almost entirely useless.

Be that as it may, the VOVIPO Kindle case's portrait mode looks and feels fantastic, and the seamless case design is second to none, especially for less than £10.

MoKo's floral-print 6-inch Kindle case is for those who like a little flair to their Kindle case, and flair it certainly has. Packed with colour and decorated with an array of whimsical flowers of all shapes and sizes, this pretty Kindle case makes a great gift, there's no denying it.

The case itself is particularly thick with a stand design for hands-free reading, making it ideal for those on the go who want to protect their Kindle at all costs. Though the floral aesthetic might not be for you, there are countless other designs to choose from, so it's worth seeing what's available.

Moderately priced, well designed and manufactured, and bound to keep your Kindle safe, and then some.

Holding a Kindle certainly beats fighting against gravity with a cramped hand of an evening, but getting smacked in the face with a Kindle as you drift off to sleep certainly isn't desirable, but there's an answer to this problem.

Zcooooool's hand strap Kindle case makes one-handed reading even easier: simply place your hand through the strap and read to your heart's content, without the risk of dropping your Kindle. But it's not just useful for late-night reading: use it for a little reassurance when you're commuting.

Though this case isn't the most exciting visually, it certainly adds a level of practicality that is otherwise not possible on a standard Kindle case.

Possibly the most versatile Kindle case of the year, the WALNEW stand/hand strap case is perfect for practically anyone in need of total reading comfort. This PU leather case combined with a thick, textured fabric looks and feels secure, leaving nothing to chance when it comes to protection.

Certainly on the thicker side, which lends to its toughness, but at the same time makes it a little more awkward to hold and store away, the WALNEW Kindle case isn't the best for space efficiency, but it's hardly a concern, the Kindle itself is small enough not to cause too many storage problems.

Having the absolute freedom of propping up or using the hand straps, which are on either side of the case, is fantastic, and for its versatility alone, it's a tough case to beat.

A great pick for those who love some personalisation to their Kindle, this custom-made retro Kindle case imitates a snakeskin leather, and it looks phenomenal. Smooth, light and rugged, carrying your Kindle wherever you go is no longer a cause for concern, this securely designed Kindle case is a breath of fresh air amongst countless plainer designs on the market.

Though it's a little pricier than most, for that extra touch of personalisation with the option to add initials, it more than justifies its higher price point.

Resembling a classic, retro notepad, the FloralAll Kindle case is unbelievably well-made, creating a gorgeous textbook aesthetic that feels fantastic, and more than stands out from its competition.

Equipped with a built-in strap which is positioned on the inside of the cover, this Kindle case isn't just style, it's incredibly practical too. Though its aesthetic might not be for everyone, it's hard to picture someone not liking this vintage design that completely transforms the Kindle itself.

Decently priced, practical and providing excellent protection against both falls and the elements, this great Kindle case is about as close to perfect as you can get.

An alternative to those who prefer the Kindle without the hindrance of a case, the Comfyable Kindle sleeve is precisely shaped to the size of a Kindle, leaving no spare room for space-wasting.

Comprised of a beautiful PU faux leather, the Comfyable e-reader sleeve is by far the best sleeve we've come across, and its array of available colours looks simply gorgeous. Not having a layer of protection during use is certainly disheartening, but the Kindle is certainly durable enough as it is, so just having that extra protection in your backpack offers belt and braces coverage.

For its value and sheer quality alone, this is a tough Kindle case to beat.
