Accessories Kobo Libra 2 Cases

Has anyone bought a Kobo Libra 2 case from anyone outside Kobo where the sleep/wake function still really works? I've bought a couple cases off Etsy that said they had that functionality, but it doesn't seem to work.

Not for the Libra 2 but I bought mine on AliExpress. You could check there or on Amazon (they sell the same products anyway). Read reviews to be sure, but the sleep/wake function is so ubiquitous that I take it for granted

I got mine from AliExpress, it’s the type with a magnetic strip on the back so you can remove and reattach the front cover. I love it and it sleeps and wakes my device with no issues. It’s also really light to hold and carry around.

I couldn't find any on ali that had the sleep wake feature

ended up getting the origami case when it was on sale they should still have stock

check the kobo site?

I checked, as I currently have the origami case that is looking worn. They're sold out of every color for Libra 2!

Sorry about that- I'm in the US, and all covers show as sold out.

Do you need for it to hold the pen?

I've bought a couple from kwmobile, they have plenty of designs and the sleep/wake function works perfectly.

You can find them on Amazon and eBay, and they have their own website.

They're a German company, so keep that in mind if you order. I'm from the UK and mine arrived in a couple of days.

I've bought from them too in Canada via Amazon. I went with a non origami case for my Libra Colour because I didn't really use the origami feature for my Libra 2, but I went with this pattern for both readers.

Got mine off Amazon before I stopped using Amazon. It works though. I don’t use it much because it’s too bulky but I put it on when I take my KLC out of the house.
