Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Congrats on your new Kindle Fire HD 7", just remember that Fire is for reading - not playing with which is exactly what you're doing when you leave this device exposed and without a cover. Fortunately this standing leather case is the perfect solution. What makes it such a great product is how it adds to the functionality of the device. It's certainly pricey at the current mark of $44.99, but once you see and feel this case in person you'll fully appreciate its value. One of the most common (and valid) complaints about the new Kindle is the location of the virtually-hidden power button. With this case you wake up your Kindle or put it to sleep simply by opening or closing the magnetic cover. It keeps it securely closed when asleep and free from dust or debris that it would otherwise be exposed to and without any straps or fasteners. That alone makes the cover worth it and the Kindle itself such a better product. The smooth exterior feels magnificent to the touch and is sturdy and well-constructed without obstructing any of the ports, buttons or the dual speakers. It fits perfectly and doesn't add any bulk, weight or noticeable size to your device. For media usage, the case can be used as a stand if you don't want to hold your device while viewing, and for reading the case makes your device feel more like a book, and provides added comfort with more places to put your hands. This is a must-own accessory for the new Kindle Fire HD 7".
