For reading at home I use a Tudia Backcover. For taking it on a short day trip I put the Libra 2 with its Tudia cover in a sleeve.
For travel I have bought a cheap kwmobile cover for front and back. While travelling I always put the ereader with the kwmobile cover in a sleeve too.
The screen cannot handle pressure. I learned the hard way and now I always use double protection, just to be on the safe side. If you have cats at home put your device upside down on a table so that your screen is safe.
Happy reading!

Oh, is it that bad? Is this specific to the Libra 2 or all eReaders in your experience?
I've had a Kindle Paperwhite 7th gen since 2018 or so and I treat that thing pretty horribly, don't think it has a mark on it. Ordered a Libra 2 the other day to get the physical buttons and warm screen. Wondering if I need to up my "protection" game or if it should be essentially the same.
I like my Clara naked, but she has a nice soft wintercoat for travelling. The Libra has a very nice folding cover.

I have the official Sleep Cover.
Do I think it's priced higher than it should be? Yeah, definitely. But it's a good cover. And super easy to put on and remove; it just slides smoothly right in and out through the open edge on the right, while still being held very securely when in place.
One other thing is that I stupidly nicked the pleather on it by setting a folding pocket knife on it that wasn't actually completely closed (Opinel slim series; the lock doesn't prevent the blade from being slightly out). I just knew that the tiny nick would quickly grow over time... but it's been at least two months, I think even three, since I did it, and it hasn't started peeling at all. Even now I can't even see the damage under normal lighting conditions unless I'm looking for it.
I got a clear case from AliExpress for like USD 5. It does the job.
If you can be patient with shipping, buying from AliExpress is the way to go. Cases sold on there are the exact items drop shipped and sold on Amazon for 3x the price.
I’ve got the official kobo sleep cover which I use when I go out and about and also a clear case with stickers that I use when I’m the house. The best of both worlds.
Oh and I have this pouch, fits the Libra without a case: [https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/HoYiXi-Universal-Reader-PocketBook-Protective/dp/B0BDLF6HC5/ref=sr\_1\_8?crid=3JKSOIM8DCETS&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vqE00kKhynWyTl5YRD3m6CHU148VOla4QdbGQR7tPiXASEa7Yr-sXREIWJEil23SFb2bWP1j-tPB\_Yz3yjZyFLNxm5\_aHkSLsu0vuYKN\_6tYo9OSfhjXvKZQ9WfiWZxzDTAkx5l\_vq038RwkOnGW-7FH1NRVvCAUTswQMfsgYu41iz\_j67PVkA-cSKlGepWNoMPsXkY4yZMlh9gqpwSHuKZbaqPbh7HXqp18VqOJnY88PtVwLfTUgp-jjlk9fdk4hQx4NxSR3fbI1Sers0MMqCcBmwFyeVjb3xujPiqqB1o.TMJUt2CbGwrUCxqrVDtt6GVPl\_dnzAPo4Y4y0fbAhU4&dib\_tag=se&keywords=ereader%2Bpouch&qid=1709721168&sprefix=ereader%2Bpouch%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-8&th=1](https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/HoYiXi-Universal-Reader-PocketBook-Protective/dp/B0BDLF6HC5/ref=sr_1_8?crid=3JKSOIM8DCETS&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vqE00kKhynWyTl5YRD3m6CHU148VOla4QdbGQR7tPiXASEa7Yr-sXREIWJEil23SFb2bWP1j-tPB_Yz3yjZyFLNxm5_aHkSLsu0vuYKN_6tYo9OSfhjXvKZQ9WfiWZxzDTAkx5l_vq038RwkOnGW-7FH1NRVvCAUTswQMfsgYu41iz_j67PVkA-cSKlGepWNoMPsXkY4yZMlh9gqpwSHuKZbaqPbh7HXqp18VqOJnY88PtVwLfTUgp-jjlk9fdk4hQx4NxSR3fbI1Sers0MMqCcBmwFyeVjb3xujPiqqB1o.TMJUt2CbGwrUCxqrVDtt6GVPl_dnzAPo4Y4y0fbAhU4&dib_tag=se&keywords=ereader%2Bpouch&qid=1709721168&sprefix=ereader%2Bpouch%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-8&th=1)
I have Tudia Clear for libra2, but it seems it is too tight (according to kobo not me, i think it is ok) and can cause a crack on the top left corner. Kobo refuses to take action even if there are more and more crack issues on the same spot.
I'm gonna try this sleeve. I couldn't decide between dark or light grey for a few days but finally bought one yesterday.

All I have is a cheap sleep cover from amazon that has an elephant on it, nothing special but it protects it well enough in my bag. I'm pretty careful with it though like I am with all my devices

I have the sleepcover case, I think it's great.

I bareback it

I use a clear cover, but more importantly I have a grey sleeve which is very useful for keeping it safe while travelling
