Much better than the cover sold by Amazon (the one with the weak magnets). I actually feel that my device is secure within this cover. Unfortunately, because the cover encloses the entire device the bump on the Oasis gets in the way when you fold the cover back to read. It's a only slight inconvenience and the cover as a whole is leaps and bounds better than the Oasis Water-Safe Fabric Standing Cover (which doesn't even stand, mind you. I don't know if I was doing something wrong but I could not get the cover to stand.)
Pros:
1. Secures the device, completely.
2. Covers the metal bump so it isn't cold when you pick it up.
(I don't know if anyone else had this problem but since Amazon decided to switch to a metal back for the new Oasis, every time I go to pick it up it's freezing. Since this covers completely envelopes the device, this isn't a problem anymore.)
3. Good bang for your buck.
(There were some imperfections on the plastic around the hinge of the cover but for the price, I can't complain.)
Cons:
1. Cover doesn't fold back all the way because of the bump.
(This is no fault of the cover but has to do with the design of the Oasis itself. The front cover does not fold flush and holding the device is a little more cumbersome if you have smaller hands.)
Overall, this is a very good cover and does everything you'd want a cover to do. There is, however, a lack of color options but that is just a personal preference.
