From cases and covers to page turners and stickers, this is the guide for you\.  Courtesy of PopSockets; Strapsicle Your Kindle doesn'thave to be just a plain e\-reader\. The right Kindle accessories can transform the simple device into something that showcases your personality, makes it easier to read, or all of the above\. Personally, I'm always looking for a way to hold up one less device in front of my face; I'm[holding my phone enough already](https://www.wired.com/story/lamicall-kindle-holder-rave/), thank you very much\. If you're shopping around for new Kindle accessories, I've got you covered as a fellow reader and owner of every single current Kindle model\.

Here are some of my favorites that I've tried on my various Kindles\. CoBak ### Clear Case This clear case from CoBak is nice and thick and has reinforced corners—perfect for if you're a chronic dropper\. Fintie ### Shell Kindle Case If you want something tough to protect your Kindle that isn't bulky, I like this sleek case\. It has a hard exterior shell with a soft interior to protect your Kindle Paperwhite or Colorsoft\. PopSockets ### Kindle Paperwhite Case PopSockets has a nice range of Kindle cases that add a MagSafe ring for its grips \(or other MagSafe grips you might have\)\. PopSockets puts the ring in the lower third of the back, so these cases are great for folks who like to hold the bottom of their e\-reader\. The Dragon Sterling is my current favorite design, but PopSockets has a ton to choose from\. Owkey ### Magnetic Kindle Case If you like the idea of a case that includes a MagSafe ring but want the ring toward the middle of the device, or just want a more minimalist design, this simple case works perfectly\. The center placement was still comfortable for my smaller hands, and the translucent black was stylish without forcing me to commit to a loud and colorful design\. --- ## Kindle Straps and Grips Looking for an easier way to hold your Kindle? Add these straps and grips right onto the Kindle or the case\. Strapsicle ### E\-Reader Hand Strap These silicone straps are super simple to use: Just pull them over opposite corners and you're done\. No sticky adhesive, no magnets, just simple straps\. The set comes with two, but using just one felt plenty secure\. CoBak ### Secure Hand Strap for Kindle and Tablets This strap is similar to the Strapsicle, but it has a softer feel and can stretch farther\. It's both affordable and super comfortable, and it can be used with a slim case\. PopSockets ### Nightshade PopGrip PopSockets makes a huge range of PopGrips that can attach with either a MagSafe adapter or an adhesive\. You can find almost anything for every kind of style, but my go\-to is the Nightshade PopGrip\. The colors are like an oil slick kaleidoscope\. PopSockets ### Custom PopGrips Can't find your preferred design on a grip or something that perfectly matches your style? Make your own\. PopSockets prices these custom PopGrips pretty similarly to the premade ones, so it's worth making your own if you have a specific aesthetic—or want to print something custom or fun for a gift\! --- ## Kindle Holders Hate holding up your Kindle? Or[struggle with chronic pain that makes holding it feel terrible](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2HJc3Q4E4T5tpv1ZdAX3NzkpS9wdL23WrqA1VjdeJpMqZfHA7wpnJJJTWgyP7gHnJpDCGEVGheLpBUBpoaUJtWAZYh7aUqHZ87t7vQyTxHPHAiG4PfNHPAr3AhruAvH15Hvs7k5YFo4y5Mm6n2LXpkLUq1VhtS7aSnhb5EcgTgrqTCwppEF2hHAyfb9xYXCV1gHiMELC3Rd69FWzuGxWPi1b1cErafaKjSHDXH1YNSdjqgNCL7AVktPJh8c5xZPtie8D8ZnuJh9RegaEKm9orSRcd4PtSqr4NF4rCaE95wYYwaKEnUf99ubFmzBV)? These holders will literally take the weight out of your hands\. Lamicall ### Gooseneck iPad Holder This holder works for Kindles and tablets alike, and even my Nintendo Switch\. The clamp base lets you attach it to tables and furniture, and it's easy to position in front of or even above you if you want to lie down and read\. Lamicall ### Tablet Pillow Stand Holder If you want something that's freestanding, this pillow tablet stand holder works great for a Kindle\. I use it on the couch, and I can sit up or lounge back and adjust the stand arm to suit my position\. There are also two built\-in cup and snack holders\. Lamicall says they're food safe, but I just use it to hold my tea mug and phone\. --- ## A Freestanding Charger Looking to keep your Kindle charged without adding another cord to the floor of your desk or bedside table? Same\. Here's a more stylish solution if you have one of the Signature editions\. Anker ### Wireless Charging Dock for Kindle This wireless charging dock is made by Anker for Kindles, specifically for Kindle Paperwhite and Colorsoft's 7\-inch Signature editions\. Those versions have wireless charging capabilities, and this stand takes advantage of that with charging coils that line up with the back of the Kindle, where the wireless charging is\. You'll want to take off any MagSafe cases; leaving mine on made the little light on the charging dock flash until I took it off\. --- ## More Charger Options If you're getting a new Kindle, you might not be thrilled to discover you need to bring your own power base to charge it\. And if you haven't already switched over your home's collection of wall chargers and bases to USB\-C versions, you'll be especially frustrated when you open the box and find only a USB\-C cord and port on the Kindle itself\. If you're in the market for a new wall charger to pair with your Kindle, these are a couple of our favorites\. Anker ### Nano 45W With USB\-C Cable This is our favorite wall charger for Androids and iPhones alike and will work great for Kindles, too\. Stamish ### USB\-C Charger Block I've had a collection of these charger blocks for a year and a half now and they're still going strong\. I use them for everything from my family's smartphones to my alarming collection of e\-readers\. Looking to charge on the go? You shouldn't need to with a Kindle's long battery life\. But in case you're a serial battery drainer, you can try these portable power banks we love\. If neither of these suit you, check out our complete guide to the[Best Power Banks](https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-portable-chargers-power-banks/)\. Nimble ### Champ \(Series 2\) This adorable little power bank is smaller than a deck of cards, but can deliver 20 watts to charge two devices at the same time with two USB\-C ports\. Use it to charge your phone and Kindle simultaneously wherever you are \(and it comes in fun colors\!\) Anker ### MagGo Power Bank \(10K\) \(Qi2\) If you don't want to worry about having a USB\-C cord handy, try this wireless power bank\. You'll need a Kindle Paperwhite or Colorsoft to use it, though\. --- ## A Kindle Page Turner The hottest new item to get as a[Kindle](https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-kindle/)lover is a page turner\. They're especially handy for holders like the ones above, where your hands aren't already on the device, and can make for a great accessibility accessory for readers with different needs\. My biggest irritation with these devices so far is that you have to charge them both individually, and if one runs out of battery, the whole thing is useless\. I also don't love that the turner does tend to block at least one letter while I read, and you can't place it on the lower or upper margins since it'll activate the menus instead of turning the page\. Still, it makes reading ultra comfortable, especially for[my strained wrists](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/2HJc3Q4E4T5tpv1ZdAX3NzkpS9wdL23WrqA1VjdeJpMqZfHA7wpnJJJTWgyP7gHnJpDCGEVGheLpBUBpoaUJtWAZYh7aUqHZ87t7vQyTxHPHAiG4PfNHPAr3AhruAvH15Hvs7k5YFo4y5Mm6n2LXpkLUq1VhtS7aSnhb5EcgTgrqTCwppEF2hHAyfb9xYXCV1gHiMELC3Rd69FWzuGxWPi1b1cErafaKjSHDXH1YNSdjqgNCL7AVktPJh8c5xZPtie8D8ZnuJh9RegaEKm9orSRcd4PtSqr4NF4rCaE95wYYwaKEnUf99ubFmzBV)\. Here's my favorite one so far, that's been solid at holding a charge, and next I'm testing[this remote \($20\)](https://cna.st/affiliate-link/MqMVDRsypCNABGWG8LuZ112B2LUqDsQFyncNtZPoKiTwMjBD4LJLCQvkXAXhZ2WYpyRDM6fZXLeRh9R4XHk2PQdXDP2kMPAb1fS4so5NZpurFEfKFHx92xz67SeMWaJE8fb4FbGLZhZrWD2LKCpvwd5S7UhM7fggJQNkhBh86GrbVwxSJRPQqe8WC7rsA5Q8rbBsxixMg76jxtv9CxFvyuBMifFTmXrpuixLPjTJWgfvfwE93YubL87CoSebhz9CBTP4Y9H52VgtMjbJzA9cfzQZj61yhkwV)with a wearable ring clicker instead of a remote\. Highgo ### Remote Control Page Turner for Kindle This remote comes in a variety of cute colors and is easy to use with its clip\-on turner\. You'll need to charge both halves individually and place the thinner side of the clip onto your Kindle\. --- ## Kindle Adornments While everything else in this guide serves a protective or convenience purpose, this section features items with a singular purpose: fun\. Here are a few I've liked adding to my Kindle\. Strapsicle ### Sweet Stickers Strapsicle has both sweet and spicy sticker sets that come with a variety of large, well\-made stickers\. I can squeeze about five onto my Kindle Paperwhite; I usually just press them between the clear case and Kindle instead of actually sticking them onto my e\-reader\. Yoppix ### Charms for Kindle \(9pcs\) These charms plug into the USB\-C port on the Kindle and add a fun little touch to your e\-reader without being in the way of your hands or Kindle holders\. They take a little effort to put in, but I do like that they'll keep dust out, too, while adding a little extra sparkle\. --- ## Kindle Bags and Sleeves Looking for a bag to tote your[Kindle](https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-kindle/)around? These belt bags have you covered with a specific size and special pockets designed to safely store your device\. Sure, you could throw your Kindle in any old bag, but these will keep it secure and prevent scratches from your keys\. If you'd rather use the bag you have but want a separate sleeve to keep it safe, we've got ideas for that too\. Amazon ### Kindle Sling Bag This sleek sling bag is a great size for bringing your Kindle and a few other necessities without being too bulky\. Made in collaboration with[Gen Phoenix](https://genphoenix.com/), the GRS\-certified recycled leather exterior has a sturdy but smooth feel to it\. The Quirky Cup Collective ### E\-Reader Sleeves This sleeve not only keeps your Kindle safe in whatever bag you've stored it in, but adds a fun, mystical vibe\. This one is compatible with the[Kindle Paperwhite \(2021\)](https://www.wired.com/review/kindle-paperwhite-2021/), but QCC offers both smaller and larger sleeves for other Kindles too\. --- ## Still Need a Kindle? If you're reading this guide and actually are still in need of a Kindle,[we've got an entire guide to the best Kindles to buy and why](https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-kindle/)\. Here are my top favorites\. Amazon ### Kindle Paperwhite \(2024, 12th Generation\) Our all\-around top favorite has an adjustable warm light \(auto\-adjusting if you choose the upgraded Signature version\), three months of battery life, and a 7\-inch screen for one of the best e\-reader experiences\. Amazon ### Kindle Scribe \(2nd Gen, 2024\) My personal favorite Kindle is the older Scribe\. It's a combination of an e\-reader and a digital notebook\. There's a new version out, but I still really like the features \(and price\!\) of the 2024 model\. Amazon ### Kindle \(2024, 11th Gen\) Looking for something more affordable? The newest base Kindle is small yet mighty, and the matcha color is fun\. Amazon ### Kindle Colorsoft and Colorsoft Signature Edition If you want a colorful Kindle, there's now a range of Kindle Colorsofts that can display your favorite covers and illustrated works in full technicolor, though slightly muted due to the e\-paper screen technicolor\. You'll lose dark mode on your menus, but you can switch the pages to turn to black instead\. ## FAQs Can These Accessories Work With Other E\-Readers, Like Kobo? Some of them can\! You'll have to check descriptions for certain items \(like cases or things that have to perfectly fit the device\) since other devices like Kobo and Nook don't have the same dimensions as a Kindle, but flexible straps, generic tablet holders, and decorative items like charms and stickers would easily work with any other e\-reader you own\. **[*Power up with unlimited access to*WIRED](https://www.wired.com/v2/offers/wir_generic_ctrl?source=Site_0_HCL_WIR_EDIT_HARDCODED_0_COMMERCE_AFFILIATE_ZZ)*\.****Get best\-in\-class reporting and exclusive subscriber content that's too important to ignore\.[Subscribe Today](https://www.wired.com/v2/offers/wir_generic_ctrl?source=Site_0_HCL_WIR_EDIT_HARDCODED_0_COMMERCE_AFFILIATE_ZZ)\.* ## Wired Coupons
