How to choose a new case for your Kindle Paperwhite

  • Size should not generally be a problem, but do check you are buying a case that will fit.
  • Have a habit of reading your kindle by the water? Best to look out for a waterproof case.
  • Not all of the cases come with a light for night-time reading, so look for one that does if that is a deal-breaker for you.
