Is it easy to hold your kindle on one hand with the top folded backwards?

The inside of the top is a soft material like felt. When you fold it back your hand rests on this material so it is easy to hold.

Yes, there's no problem about that. It sticks to the hand pretty good and doesn't slip. You can grab it with whole wide hand for a firm grip or only with your fingers supporting the back and it's still comfortable to read without worrying that the Kindle will slip out.

In my opinion, yes it is. The cover doesn't add much weight or surface area so it isn't cumbersome to hold it. I prefer holding with 2 hands at times so I can tap the kindle more easily, but you can hold it in one hand with the cover on as well.

I often read in bed and the cover can be open to any angle. The Kindle can be held in one hand without any issues.It would have been nice to include a slot on the front or back for a business card in case the Kindle is misplaced. It might also have been usefulto include a small attachment point for a strap.However the cover is light and unobtrusive. The feature of turning the Kindle on is good, although sometimes you need to open and close the cover a few times before it works. I'd say it works on the first try 90% of the time and needs a few additional tries about 10% of the time. I often read in bed and the cover can be open to any angle.

Yes - no problem there. In fact, I did get one (I've bought several) that was almost TOO loose! Discreet application of super glue fixed that...

Yes. It folds completely over the back. I actually hold it with the cover out to the side, much as one would hold a small book with one hand and it works great.
902969
Yes. Both myself and my wife (smaller hands) hold it in one hand without a problem

No, but holding it doesn't seem to be a problem. I prop it when I'm in bed and easily secure it with one finger. If it's on a table, there are ridges as shown in the picture that hold it steady in place when in the landscape mode. When in the portrait position it is open like a book, so no problems there. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, it is very easy to open and close with only one hand. Just pull up and turn to open, will latch itself when you swing it closed.

I would say yes,it's hard cover but thin and folds back If you like to read that way. People I know hav th kindle cover and even though it nice , it seams bulky in comparison.

I fold the flap back to talk/text. Kinda like how you'd fold the front cover of a magazine over. It takes some getting used to, but you get a hang of it pretty fast

Yes. Easy, but if your female, THEY may be in the way of the lower half of the kindle. I use an e reader and all though it doesn't cause neck strain, it took my eyes awhile to get used to looking through the glasses. Basically if your laying flat, you have to look up to see the book which is also a feeling to get used to but it's comfortable.

You can fold it all the way back, and hold it. Otherwise, you can let it dangle while typing, and it will not be in the way.

It folds completely flat if you are going to hold it to read. You can also use it hands free since it has ribbing to brace it.

No. However I overcome that problem easily. The case has one narrow and long piece of leather connecting the front to back. On the other side it's two short narrow bits. I insert my kindle with the power button slightly under the long, narrow bit and my fingertip easily fits to just press the button. Also I can plug in the recharge cord without removing the kindle from the cover. Hope I helped:)

Yes, the cover does fold back on itself and it's easy to hold in that position. It's light weight and I like the brown color I got.

KindleC I don't understand your question. Does it reverse directions? I don't understand you. Sorry

Yes. It's able to fold back and isn't all that cumbersome. The new issue I had been having was the power supply running low because of the constant pressing of the power button. That was easily solved by me just cutting a piece out of the spine at the very top. Didn't ruin the aesthetics. And worked out in the end.

Yes, its very easy to open one handed. You shouldn't have any problem doing so.

No. You can fold it and it will stay upright but I think that would be an incredibly awkward reading experience.For the paperwhite if you want that you need to look for the ones that look more like a reporters notebook. So that instead if opening left to right like a book cover. It folds over the top.

I think the cover was not designed to be folded all the way to the back. I tried it the first few days after I got it, but it because it is leather I got the impression that if I would do it all the time I would end up messing up the cover ...After a while I realized that I can talk with the cover closed and I can also write comfortably with th cover opened at 180 degrees ... So involuntarily I have eliminated my "need" to folding it all the way back and I don't do it any moreHope this helps

Being two-handed, I cant speak totally to this; but I can say that I use this on my treadmill and at my quilting frame where usually one hand is occupied with doing something else. I am able to successfully turn pages on smaller paperbacks with the one hand, just adjust the bottom holder to whatever tension works best for you. Larger books are impossible to do one handed. Of course, I really often use it with my e-readers most often which is super easy then.

No, does not effect the paperwhite to fold cover completely back.I use it like that while reading in bed
