Will closing the case put the Kindle into sleep mode?

yes it does put it into sleep mode but i prefer to power mine off when not in use due to the charging time.

I'm not sure about closing the case, but opening the case will turn the kindle on.

It goes to sleep when you close the cover, and wake up when you open the cover. Hope that helps!

No. It remains on/awake when you close the cover. You must activate the sleep mode manually by pressing the button on the side of the Nook.

I personally have never experienced this problem. My iPad goes to "sleep" every time the cover is closed with this companion case on. I've really enjoyed this case and have not experienced any difficulty while using it.

This case will not turn off the Kindle when bent back for one-handed reading. Full stop.If the Kindle senses that you have not turned the page in a while, it will shut off automatically in order to conserve the battery.

My Kindle does have an auto off feature that kicks on after a certain period of non-use.

be sure you do not power off before closing the cover. the device will go into sleep mode and is awakened by opening the cover.

The case is closed with a magnetic style devise. When opens the kindle will turn on once the magnetic attachment leaves the closed position.

No, it does not place the tablet into sleep mode when closed; if there is a setting to do this I am not aware of it, but the default settings do not do this. The tablet times out on its own. When you open the tablet you can press the space bar two times in a row to wake up the tablet.

Sorry to hear about that . I would return the case to Amazon. I have the same case and auto on/off feature works just fine. When I have my kindle in the easel or standard book position, it doesnt shut down. I think you have a misaligned magnet.

You should just have to open cover and your kindle will turn on when you close cover it will shut down and go onto sleep mode also you can get in your kindle and set how long before your kindle goes to sleep like 2 minutes and so on hope this helps you pk

My Kindle is unlocked, and it was automatic. When I close the case it goes to sleep, opening it, it turns on.

When I was searching for a cover, I read some reviews that talked about that happening, but I've never had it happen to me, and I read more than the average person probably does." If you don't close the cover, it will eventually turn off, but it's just a matter of pressing the button like on the original kindle, to turn it back on. Otherwise, you close the cover, it goes to sleep. Open the cover, it wakes.

If you are talking about when using the Kindle and you close the cover without using the on/off button then Yes it does. If you close the cover it will put it in sleep mode and then once you ope the cover again it wakes up and you just have to slide the unlock.

Yes, when I close mine my kindle turns off or goes to sleep however you want to look at it. When I open it, my kindle opens to the lock screen.

When the cover is closed, the Kindle goes into "sleep" mode. It does not power off. I suppose over time it would eat some battery life but, the Paperwhite is soooo energy efficient, I don't see it as a negative situation.
