The Kindle Accessories I Never Want to Read Without (2026)
Your Kindle doesn't have 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, 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. I've tried everything from clear cases you can fill with stickers to ones with built-in straps, and have tested straps you can add to your e-reader without needing a case. Stickers? Charms? Got ’em. Hate holding your Kindle up to read? The Kindle holders and page-turning remotes are for you. This guide will give you ideas on how to improve your own reading time or gift your favorite reader.
Updated August 2026: I've added a new section with compatible wall chargers and portable chargers, and updated pricing.
An easy must-have for any Kindle reader is a case or cover to protect your e-reader. Here are some of my favorites that I've tried on my various Kindles.
This clear case from CoBak is nice and thick and has reinforced corners—perfect for if you're a chronic dropper.
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 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.
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.
Looking for an easier way to hold your Kindle? Add these straps and grips right onto the Kindle or the case.
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.
