Most fashionable Kindle Paperwhite 4 cases for all tastes

Best rated Kindle Paperwhite 4 cases sleeves

Bring new life to your Kindle Paperwhite with one of these hot new fashionable designs. What are you looking for? A book-style folio case? A multi-angle stand? A leather sleeve?

Note: A newer Paperwhite model was released in 2021. It is incompatible with the cases listed below. Kindle Paperwhite 6.8 (2021) cases are listed in a separate round up.

The 4th-generation Kindle Paperwhite is not the newest Amazon e-reader out there but it’s still the most popular one.

Thanks to a combination of most sought-after features, reasonable price and a choice of new desaturated colors, the middle-shelf Kindle wins the hearts of book lovers.

First of all, Paperwhite 4 is waterproof. You can put the e-reader in 2 meters of fresh water, keep it there for an hour, and it will still work.

The 4th-generation Paperwhite (10th-generation overall) is also ready to play audiobooks, as it includes the Bluetooth chip and an audiobook player interface. Thanks to this, you will be able to listen to Audible audiobooks via connected Bluetooth headphones or speakers.

Jump to the list

On top of that, the new Paperwhite offers two storage options, 8 and 32 GB, with the latter one being perfect for anyone who wants to download lots of audiobooks or graphic novels for offline use.

The most significant change, however, is the look. The Paperwhite is smaller and thinner than its predecessor and comes with a shiny edge-to-edge glass front.

New dimensions and shape make most cases designed for Paperwhite 3 incompatible. Amazon offers original Kindle Paperwhite 4 cases, but as you know, getting the original accessory usually means spending more money.

Third-party cases are a way to save money and get creative, as they combine a low price with creative, bright designs that would better match your personality.

We have updated the Kindle Paperwhite 4 case list with the newest arrivals, including the ones that reflects this year’s fashion trends.

The 4th-generation Kindle is not the newest model out there, but it doesn’t mean new cases don’t get launched.

Marble pattern is among the hottest case designs in 2020-21 season. LuvCase store offers on Amazon a range of Kindle Paperwhite 4 cases that feature several marble designs. Frankly, you will have a hard time choose the one that suits your taste the most.

Infiland shell case for Kindle Paperwhite 4 is a solid alternative to the original Amazon case, offering a set of most sought-after features: auto sleep / wake support, lightweight design, and one-handed reading mode.

What makes this series from Infiland unique is the natural feel that’s been achieved when designing the texture. Most variants look like being covered with a naturally washed-out denim.

Plus, we love natural, desaturated colors such as Navy or Marron. If you are looking for a Kindle Paperwhite 4 case that looks like being wrapped in a piece of denim, you should check out a version called “Royal Blue.” The Infiland logo could be less prominent, though.

The BookBook Kindle case comes with all the iconic features from iPad versions: leather exterior with classic book design, hand-finished details and solid stitching, a zipper designed to disguise as yellowish pages of a closed book, and finally a rigid spine that provides an extra protection.

Every BookBook case is unique as it’s designed to meet specific needs of users of different devices. A version for Kindle Paperwhite comes with a special kickstand that will let you read a book hands-free (perfect for long binge-reading sessions).

You can adjust the angle thanks to built-in magnets hidden in the back case. If you prefer not to use the built-in stand, you can fold the front cover and hold the Kindle in one hand.

Slim pouch sleeve for Kindle Paperwhite 4

Are you sure you need the regular case for your new Paperwhite 4? Maybe it’s time for a change?

If you want to enjoy the new modern look of the Paperwhite 4 every time you read, get a sleeve, not a case. The protection is needed when you carry the e-reader, anyway.

The range of sleeves offered on Amazon is pretty limited, especially when you compare it with Etsy. However, Walnew offers a range of four elegant sleeves. They have the opening on the top side and close with a fashionable striped belt.

Walnew leather-like sleeve fits most 6-inch e-readers, so you can get it not only for the Paperwhite but also the entry-level Kindle.

⇢ Amazon – $9.99

9. Zipper pouch bag with large external pocket

The main benefit of the pouch is an external pocket that you can use to carry Bluetooth earphones (Paperwhite 4 is Audible-ready, remember?), cables, and even a smartphone.

Oh, and opposite to leather, it’s water-safe, just like your Paperwhite.

It’s also worth highlighting that the cork is used on internal surfaces instead of microfiber. Plus, Amazon claims that 23-27% of its base is made from post-consumer recycled content.

You can pick up either the Tan or Brown version.

17. Standing origami case for Kindle Paperwhite 4

Standing origami case for Kindle Paperwhite 4

We know there are several fans of origami Kindle cases. Opposite to tri-fold stands that would be pretty unstable with small 6-inch devices, origami design is a way to combine the slimmest possible design with a stand functionality.

From a trusted Amazon case seller, MoKo, comes a series of origami Kindle Paperwhite 4 cases that support sleep / wake function and can turn into either horizontal or vertical stand, giving you 100% freedom in where and how you read books.

A durable polycarbonate back shell protects also the sides of the Kindle, while the soft microfiber interior lining keeps the screen clean from dust.

The case features the lightweight backshell and the front supporting auto sleep / wake function. While the case is lightweight (only 3.2 oz), it offers advanced protection with anti skid and waterproof faux leather exterior, Plexiglas layer in the middle, as well as soft and no-scratch microfiber interior.

The case is available in five colors, including Brown, Orange, and a popular design called “Love Tree.” The variant shown above is a dual-color “Denim Red.”

Bonus: Night lamp with speaker – perfect for audiobooks

Night lamp with Bluetooth speaker - perfect to play audiobooks from Kindle Paperwhite

There is a growing number of home appliances that come with an integrated Bluetooth speaker, for instance alarm clocks, reading lamps, or power banks. None of them looks as gorgeous as a new desk light that offers a steampunk look, flickering light, and speaker with a clear sound.

The lamp’s flame mode gives soft warm light that resembles flickering of a candle. You can adjust the light brightness by rotating a switch in the base of the lamp.

How long is the playing time? It’s the most important question for audiobook lovers. This steampunk, battery operated lamp & speaker can play audiobooks for up to 8 hours at the maximum volume. It’s enough to play an entire audiobook from your Kindle.

Where to buy Kindle cases and accessories?

Have you found the perfect case for your newest Kindle? If not, make sure to check out these online stores:

Amazon – Kindle owners shop on Amazon by default, but we advise not only to check out the cases that are available in the Kindle Store’s accessories category. When you search the entire store, you will see the results from “Electronics” section – and here you’ll find thousands of other cases to consider.

Best Buy – the range of offered Kindle cases and accessories is pretty limited, but the store is worth checking out if you want to buy an accessory at a reduced price.

eBay – a proven place to shop for affordable accessories. Sometimes, you can find here the case that’s the same as on Amazon but costs two-thirds of the price. Worth checking if you’re interested in exploring budget options.

Etsy – this is our favorite online marketplace for custom items, hand-crafted to order. There are hundreds of Kindle jackets and sleeves to choose from. If you want to get an insanely cute or uniquely stylish Kindle case that you can personalize, look no further.
