Is the Poetic Vertical Flip Cover for PaperWhite comfortable to read without using the stand? It doesn't show reading without the stand anywhere.

The answer is yes. I read in bed and it's lightweight and comfortable to hold with one hand when folded.

That's kind of dependent on what you like. It's basically like reading with a large hardback book. If you don't mind holding a hardback book, then it's fine. I hardly use the stand and don't mind reading without it. I read in the car with no stand, at appointments, in bed, etc.

Yes, you really don't notice it is there. I have a Kindle Fire and while I like the cover I have, I prefer my cover for the PaperWhite. Someone accidentally yanked mine out and ripped a tab holding in the PaperWhite. I super glued it back and it was good as new.I reinforced the other one before sending my Kindle to my grandaughter in France.

Yes. The section the reader stands on in easel configuration folds backward and lies flat against the back of the reader if you don't need to use the stand. I read as much with it that way as using the stand.

Unfortunately unless it's propped up against something it will not be able to stand in the portrait position for reading. There is only one case for the Kindle fire hd that I have seen that was able to do that and it was made by Targus and for some reason it's not available on Amazon. I seems to be exclusively sold at Best Buy.

The case doesn't have a light. It's just lightweight. I have the latest paperwhite as well. This case is great!

I'm sorry that I can't tell you about a paperback. We didn't try that on the stand. It is very stable and holds a large, heavier hardback extremely well. Tipping over is not a problem at all, and the small plastic "stops" along the bottom hold the book in place well, yet it is easy to turn pages. My sister, who has Parkinson's, and is confined to a wheel chair, can use the stand very easily. I think the stand would be steady enough and not tip over, no matter what weight of book is used with it, even a paperback. But I'll have to look at it again to see if it makes a difference that the paperback is a smaller book. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. I'm sorry that I can't tell you about a paperback.

My Kindle is in a canvas type cover/jacket (and it too makes it heavier than without it) but it still works great for me even with the cover on ( I never take it off). I really love that little extra support and angle for reading - the Ipevo PadPillow solved my needs in that area.

I really like mine. It will stand up on its own and offers substantial protection. It does not turn off the screen on my paperwhite though.

The standard insert will accommodate a device + case of up to 1/2". If your Paperwhite + case is wider than 1/2" you would need the wider insert.Thanks!Mo

Yes it does. You have to set the Kindle to Auto-rotate, then the viewing is vertical or horizonital as needed. The problem I had was the power cord having to be at the top. I had apps with fixed orientation for the power cord at the bottom. The cover wasn't like a book, when you had put the cord at the bottom of the app. It is difficult to hold at this orientation. This cover does not work with the power cord at the bottom.

The stand on the back of the case works horizontally only. However, the Nook is fully secured in this case and I turn it vertically all the time with no issues.

It certainly does (I also love it for a kindle or tablet). Keep in mind, it doesn't "hold" it, your book leans on it. But, all I have ever had to do, for large heavier books, is rest my hand on it, near the center and on the bottom, to hold pages open. Smaller books and paperbacks can have the pages "tucked" into the lip at the bottom and pretty much be hands-free.

It only stands on a portrait view, ideally for reading. Sits on the side for landscape, but with no support

Thank you for your question. There shouldn't be any problems with your Square Reader fitting in the amsung Galaxy S5 Case Flip View.

No- it is more like a normal book would be. It doesn't flop open- so it has never wen an issue for me. The nook clips into a secure and safe holder inside that is small and convenient. This is the best cover I've ever had for my nook- trim and functional (no magnets or elastic needed).

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.

No. Vertical only. The person who said you could rotate the reader is not looking at this cover. High quality cover and recommended.

I find the screen is too wide to read a novel comfortably while docked. You could pop out the tablet from the dock and read vertically, but after awhile it becomes a bit heavy. Where I do use the Kindle app on the Android OS is with recipes. The presentation is crisp and the images render beautifully. Because tablet mode is Android only, you won't be able to use the Windows version of the Kindle app.

The upright position is where I leave the stand. When I read while sitting up (lunch room at work) it is perfect, hands free reading. I don't use the recline (which would be on like arm of couch etc.) which seems like a good angle actually but you have to flip the reader around inside to use it. One or the other is convenient. Having said this, I really like this case. I take it everywhere and it still looks great. Hope this helps.
