With the handle on the inside of the cover that touches the screen, isn't there potential for scratching the screen?

I've had it for a while now and there is no scratching. This, btw, is my favorite Kindle cover and I have had quite a few.

No, the handle has a very soft material almost like felt, I don't see how it could scratch the screen. I do not have a screen saver on mine and I have had it for 4 months. I do not have any scratches on it and I carry it in purse every day!

Not in my opinion. It's a hand strap cut from the soft inner lining, which is VERY soft. As someone else said, like "suede". Not all of the colors of this product shows a good series of photos including the strap- but your question came w/"black" - which shows the strap. If your hand isn't in there, it lays flat within the lining. Hope that helps.

Hello John R. I think you the four "handles" on each corner? No they won't scratch the Kindle screen, first because the handles themselves are also surrounded by lether and also they aren't long enough to reach the screen. If out like I can send you a picture from the from of the Kindle. Let me know.Regards,Marcel

No, it sits in a depression moulded specifically for it. This, combined with the raised edges of the kindle itself prevent the strap from touching the screen. Also, as earlier replies have mentioned, the strap has a very soft microfibre/suede covering which matches the lining of the back cover. Works well. Cheers.

Actually, it is protective, as that whole gray back part is a "suede". I've been using it for several months and like it alot.

I guess... potentially. But the grey strap is soft, and the black elastic strips, which are a bit rougher, don't really touch the screen. The bottom one goes onto the black frame of the Kindle, and the top ones are half over the frame and half over the screen. In any case, the screen is a few milimetres lower than the frame, so I don't think the straps even touch. I've been using it for about 2/3 weeks and I don't have any scratches.

Thank you for your inquiry! The keyboard does not scratch the screen when the case is closed.

I have a screen protector. There is a possibility that your screen might get scratched

Yes, there is a piece of felt on the bottom of the case. No need to worry about scratching any surfaces.

I have seen it actually scratch the screen protector but not a naked screen.

Not really. The handle cover doesn't leave any area available for touch sensors...

it does go beyond the front screen. I never had problems scratching my screen. But again, when I dropped it accidentally, this casing chipped a little at the edge but the phone was okay

not really...the inside of the flip cover is soft so it won't scratch the glass, but it's not really meant as a cleaner.

No I've not seen any scratching. The only down side to this holster I've seen is on rare occasions I carried a heavy shoulder bag on the same side as the holster I accidentally undid the clip causing the phone to fall. Mind you the phone survived the fall and I've since learned not to clip on same side I carry. This may not be a big deal at all if you rarely carry a shoulder bag... I did it twice before I started remembering not to carry and clip on same side.

It hasn't scratched mine, although I do have a screen protector. But there aren't any scuffs on it. Nothing really sticks up that would scratch it.

Yes it is, but it's inset within a heavy duty plastic circle of the cover a good 3/8", so you would have to set the pad down on something protruding into the circle to scratch it. Not a concern in my opinion.

I have not had any problems with it scratching my screen. I am very careful to make sure my screen and the tip of the pen are clean before I use it though.

the inside where it slides in is a soft felt and the inside cover is a soft felt. The cover really never touches the screen. I've had the same case on my kindle from last year and never had an issue with scratching. My screen is completely scratch free. You can buy a screen protector as an option though.

Absolutely. It doesn't affect the pen or touch feature in any way. It doesn't cause any "drag" like other screen protectors, and it won't scratch. It's as if the screen protector IS the screen! :D

The keys have never scratched our screen. We do have a protective film on our screen though.
