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 7" Fire 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 fully 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 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.
This is a great cover. It turns the device on and off by opening and closing and works as a great stand with it either vertical or horizontal. It also adds very little to the size or weight of the tablet. I absolutely recommend it!
All-New Amazon Fire 7 Tablet Case (7th Generation, 2017 Release), Charcoal Black
Perfect fit. I really like the case's simple clean design that lets you sit the tablet vertical and horizontal .
I wasn’t sure whether to rate it 3 or 4 stars. It has a lot of pros. I love that it opens and closes like a book and there is little chance of the screen getting scratched up in your bag with the cover over it, if you don’t have a screen protector for it yet. The magnetic feature on it is neat and it’s also neat that the tablet immediately turns off when you close it and then turns back on when you open it. I do like the idea of being able to stand it up both vertically and horizontally. Only problem is that it tends to fall when standing it up vertically. The cover, when folded, is just not strong enough to keep it up. You have to try to be very carefully not to touch the tablet screen too roughly when it’s in that position, to try and avoid it falling down. Which is a shame. I prefer it to be vertical when reading but horizontally is better with this case.
Every time I cheap out, and buy an aftermarket case. I am not happy with it for one reason or another. In this instance, the case was nicely made but it was bulky, and it weighed as much as my Fire does. I keep my Fire on my bed table, and read in bed for an hour every night. I like for it to be light and comfortable. The reason I upgraded from 7" gen.5 to a 7" gen.7 was for the smaller, lighter size with the same screen area (and more memory).
Amazon is the only manufacturer of the perfect case for my needs. It fits like a glove, does not add much in the way of bulk or weight, and looks good doing it. I was lucky to get this one as a warehouse deal, so it saved me money, and it looks like I bought it new!

I try very hard not to drop my technology equipment. And I have not dropped my Amazon Fire 7. Thank God for that. I bought this case for it. I like it a lot. It fits like a glove and I really like the way that it hugs my Kindle. I gave it a 4 because I haven't had it very long. All I can say is that it is very sturdy, I like the way the front cover holds the kindle, and I like the way that nothing shifts in it. After I've had it for awhile, I'll probably just love it, but for now, it's doing what I want and I'm very pleased.
I can read a lot longer without pain in my hands since the cover holds it for me. Very nice shade of blue.
It's pretty and matches my Fire tablet and I like that it's slim and doesn't add a lot of bulk to the tablet. It could be improved if it had a hand strap to make holding it easier but I bought a separate hand strap that fits with it.
I love the feel of this case and it's very nice, fits perfect, and the blue color matches my kindle fire 7 2017 model perfect. There is one thing I don't like very well and that is the stand part. I guess if I used it only on a table it would be great as it does hold the kindle up well. If they could just change one thing about the design they could make these the most perfect cases out there. The front cover should be a tri- fold in my opinion but I am sure there would be some that don't like that. Maybe they could have two models then it would be perfect for everyone. I do really like it and would order it again.
I've had this case for my kindle for a little over a year and I am now just giving my opinion. It is [BLEEPING] fantastic. I have dropped it on the floor and nearly stepped on it but the ultimate test occurred just two days ago. I live in Indiana during the storm was in a roll over accident. All occupants of the vehicle are in great health. After my father crawled out of the driver side window. I crawled to the back seat to help my father by catching my grandmother as he cut her seatbelt. After we both crawled out I looked behind and saw that our vehicle was upside down. My father started grabbing a few things in being my kindle. I looked it over and was very impressed. Not a single crack or scratch! The case currently has glass embedded on the inside. I'm going to try to clean it up before butting it back on my kindle. Hopefully no one else will have to have the same experience, but I hope my experience helps you decide if you want this item.
