Kindle Fire Cases

What do you have and how do you like it?

This is what I have. It's a bit pricey, but it fits like a glove and offers good protection. I ended up getting another one for my wife's grandfather since he liked it so much on mine.

rugged case for my kid.

Splash SAFARI slim-profile leather case from amazon.com is an awsome case. For under $10 you cant beat the quality and price. About $14 total with shipping.

I have new Kindle Fire and am new to this forumn. I have been searching for a Kindle Fire case. Here are my criteria: 1) Fold into a stand; 2) Place for stylus; 3) Place for ear buds; 4) Holds Fire securely.
Any ideas?

I picked up a Belkin case that looks identical to this AmazonBasics item. It's efficient and works well so far, but is a bit expensive for what it is.

I just ordered this one and I love it!! Doesn't hold all that stuff but it's a nice case.

This is a great case if you need one now. Hit up Best Buy for 30.00bucks not a bad deal if you need it now.

Just got the MiniSuit case from Amazon for $5.95 shipped and it's quite nice.

I have this case. I like this one because it rotates.

I also have the CaseCrown, but that one doesn't rotate. I really like both. The CaseCrown is nice. For going in my purse because of the elastic closure.

All
I need a rugged case for a 12 year old who uses the fire as a speech board. He has downs and autism (hurray for double diagnosises!!) and up until now has been non-verbal. My wife got a fire for Christmas and she found Tap to Talk in the amazon market. She loaded and let our son play with it. He showed a LOT of interest. Enough that we went out and bought him a Fire of his own. It is used 99% for tap to talk.
The case needs to be very rugged. I think something without a cover to make it easier to use (dexterity and opening etc can be a problem with the typical folio cases. )

I have looked at the gumdrop case as well as the seidio case and am looking for something a little more affordable....if he really takes to this we have to spend another $180 for the full version of tap to talk!

Thanks

I just bought my Kindle Fire 2 days ago and didn't want to wait for a case to be shipped to me. I rode around visiting every store I could think of to see what was available locally. Unfortunately, that meant higher prices than I could get online, but it wasn't that bad. I paid $31 for a M-Edge Incline from Staples. It is a simple leather case that will fold into a stand for landscape (horizontal) mode. My primary reason for purchasing the Kindle Fire was reading books, so a case that opened easily presenting like an actual book appealed to me. The only complaint I have is the magnetic closure is somewhat iffy, you have to get it to meet just right. I took back one of these case because the magnets were too weak. I tested the closure of the next case in the store before purchase.

I have the Mini Suit as well. Unbeatable at the price point imo.

I have two cases for mine. I have a CaseCrown, which I really like because it's a very low profile case. I also have a Deft case, which I like because it rotates. It's really nice for games that don't rotate or for reading when the Fire is propped on a table.

This looks EXACTLY like my $5.95 (now $9.95, but it fluctuates) MiniSuit case. It looks like multiple outfits are selling the same case. Note the hole in the upper-left corner. The notes in the user photos show that it has the Velcro-secured flap like the Minisuit, too.

Save the money, everyone, and buy the Minisuit for as cheap as you can.

I have the case crown. It fits very snug and is very slim. Also has a magnetic clasp. The kick stand works very well. Very good case overall.

I, too like the CaseCrown cover (Amazon.com: CaseCrown Ace Flip Case (Black Smoke) for Amazon Kindle Fire: Electronics). It has a nice look and feel and should offer good protection the KF if accidentally dropped (as long as the case is closed).

Damn I just got my kindle and I don't love any of those covers (no offense of course). I am looking for a clean looking cover that folds into a stand similar to the iPad. This will not be functioning to protect my kindle as it would just offer a clean looking stand for watching video as I won't be traveling anyplace where I'd need any sort of durable protection. Any suggestions? I saw the one by Marware, but for what it was it didn't seem worth the $40. But I'm open to suggestions. It looks like it may be my only option for what I am looking for.

Looks like I found what I wanted. While it's not as simple and clean as the ipad esque type cover I was looking for, this seems to do the rest of the job perfectly and a much more affordable price of 16.00 as opposed to 29.99.

I bought this case from amazon about 3 weeks ago and now it isn't up there, but I really like the case. It is frameless so nothing blocks the small menu screen at the bottom of videos or hinders you from the settings menu or the top menu bar.

i just have a pouch for mine for packing in a bag or something. when i'm at home or out and about, it's naked

**beav395** · 02-02-2012, 05:51 PM

I have the Marware folio case for 29.95 and I love it. It adds very little weight and offers added protection with excellent fit. The cover for the screen is very similar to the ipad cover. Ever since I put this case on I haven't taken it off. There are bulkier more protective cases in case you drop your fire but for anyone who wants an ipad style case this is great.

I got a very nice leather portfolio case from Brookstone.

This is actually for the Blackberry Playbook, which is the same size. Lovely quality, $19.99 marked down from $79. Good if you need to carry it with you and would like space to tuck in a pen, a writing pad and a few papers.
