Fire HD 8 - Case - Well made and an exact fit for the HD8 tablet. Flip top activates the device when you open it and turns it off when you close it. The blue color was exactly as displayed. The folding top becomes the stand and it works well in both positions. I have slopped coffee on the case and it wiped right off without leaving a stain. If for some reason I needed another one, I would buy this one again.

An excellent choice for a good looking and durable case to protect Amazon's new Fire HD 8 tablet

Over the years, I've tried a variety of cases for the various models of Kindle and Fire tablet that I've purchased from Amazon. While I've found a few third party covers that have been durable and attractive, I found myself coming back to Amazon's own product when I purchased one of their new 8" Fire HD tablets, and I'm pleased with it. This is a very good quality cover, it fits well, and it provides support to the tablet both in landscape and portrait orientation. It's made of fabric on the outside, with a microfiber inner lining to protect the screen of the tablet when the cover is closed. It matches the color of the Fire tablet perfectly. My only hesitation in purchasing it was the price - the case all by itself is nearly half the price of the Fire tablet! But I suppose that says more about how cheap the tablet is, than how expensive the case is (kind of). Still, I decided to spend the money for this case. The tablet needs the protection and I know from experience that Amazon's cases are durable and will last for a long time (I've used my original Kindle Paperwhite - first generation model - with the Amazon leather case since it was first purchased). I'll post some photos of the cover to show how it is packaged and how it looks on the tablet. I'm very satisfied with it. Notice how the speakers are visible at the top of the tablet when it is propped up in landscape mode.

It's water resistant and it fits really good to the tablet.

It's sterdy and also cuts the tablet off.I like that very much.

Not rubber or plastic...canvas is great, feels good, works well.

This tablet cover is a lot nicer than I expected it to be. I'm used to either those fakey rubber covers, or really hard plastic. This is neither. Maybe the other materials are better if you're into "blinging" your tablet cover or putting stickers on, but I'm not...the color itself is more than enough for me. Instead of rubber or plastic, this is a nice stitch canvas that feels good to hold and really doesn't add any noticeable weight to the tablet. My favorite feature is the corner magnet; when you open it and fold the cover back, the magnet grabs so the cover doesn't flop around, and you can still hold and use the tablet quite comfortably. It does have the Amazon logo on the front, but that's only fitting considering it was specifically designed for the fire tablet. Maybe you could find other tablet covers on the market that would work for your Fire, but Amazon did a great job making sure that their own is a really good choice.

Smooth, nice and does the job I need it to.

Nope, not an iPad; nope, not an android tablet. It has it's own platform and it works. It takes some getting used to but, if you use Amazon and Alexa, it's a no-brainer. I'm an Apple user as well and like everything they produce BUT, I hate the Apple prices and simply didn't want to spend $800 on a new iPad mini since mine no longer accepts updates due to age. I'd still be happily using my iPad if it weren't for that. In addition, as a Prime customer who travels, why not have the ability to use my Prime Video (downloads)? This thing is smooth and nice and the bottom line is, I bought the first Amazon tablet many years back and my wife still uses it as a reader. Versus the iPad and the update crap, the Fire HD 8 does the job I'm looking for. AND I don't really agree with the negative comments. Know what you're getting and the why behind it and you too will be satisfied. If it breaks or something bad happens, I'll surely revise this.

Nice slim fit. Holds vertically very nicely. Perfect for reading books.

So much better than my last case. Since I mostly read books I prefer the case to hold the book in a vertical position. Before I had trouble finding cases that did that very well. Most seemed designed to just hold it horizontally. Very slim and the magnetic catch keeps it closed in my purse. Auto puts my kindle to sleep when closed - very cool. My last one didn't. The case also stays open if I am just holding it and not using the built-in stand. Nice color. Sort of a linen texture and feel.

Perfect, stylish cover for a great tablet

This is a high quality cover that fits Fire tablets perfectly. It is multi-functional. I love it that you can completely fold it back and it is held there magnetically something I cannot do with IPad cover. It is very stylish and feels wonderful while holding the Fire tablet giving just enough friction preventing to slide from your fingers. (I lost an IPad because the cover slid from my hands). It is well worth the price, in fact I would consider it bargain priced if you consider the quality of this cover (IPad covers cost more and made of cheap plastic nothing like these covers)

Amazing durability and protection!

I believed my Fire HD 8 to be lost for good in Mid October of 17. On Feb 1st of 18 I found it where I had dropped it outside, in a location that could be described only as semi-sheltered at best, within a pile of debris. The case was half covered with ice, and I sadly retrieved the cased Kindle for salvage. Just for kicks I put the kindle on a charger and I am delighted and amazed that it powered back on, seemingly no worse for the wear. I live in NJ, and these months have seen extremes of rain, cold, and freezing temperatures. Even the case, once cleaned, has only minor stains, Amazing durability and completely delighted!!!

GREAT

Haven't used it too long, but so far it is better than ever. My morning starts with asking Alexia to tell me a joke. Pretty corny, always makes me laugh, which is a good way to start the day. Then a review with WP to see what's happening, then my own excises from a document I put on, then some relaxing, meditative music. If I can't sleep at night, I simply turn on a movie and watch in bed. Works every time. Soon as it is over, I'm out like a light. The color and clarity are wonderful. I got rid of my bedroom TV. I enjoy reading in bed at times when my bum knee requires an afternoon rest with a pillow under it, and I don't feel like sleeping. The cover that automatically turns it on and off works great and protects it. I got a red one so I can find it easily among all my other stuff.

you need to remove the case to access the SD slot) this is a good thing. All in all I am impressed with ...

My primary concern is the price when comparing to other solutions. Nevertheless, has received the and installed the product I believe that I meets my specific needs and expectation. This case is unlikely to protect my Fire HD in a 5-foot drop. It does, however, protect my kindle from spills and low drops. What I want and what I have is the ability to, without forethought, turn off the Kindle when the cover is closed to save power. Moreover, whether by design or oversight the fact that the SD Card is covered (e.g. you need to remove the case to access the SD slot) this is a good thing. All in all I am impressed with product 's fit (e.g. the camera hole is perfectly aligned.), the tablet speakers are well positioned for audio and the case folds into both landscape and portrait support positions, Bottom-line I'm happy with the purchase and can recommend it to others for consideration.
