Kindle Fire Case reviews

[TessM]

Since everyone is starting to get their Fires and cases, I was hoping that people will post Reviews of their cases. I'm currently undecided on what I want and your reviews would be helpful to me.

I bought the CaseCrown Ace Flip Case:


I had something like 30 cases in my wishlist & took forever to decide, but I'm so glad I went with this one. It's much easier to grip the fire in the case than it is naked, but it doesn't add any bulk. The screen isn't blocked at all, which was important to me-- it just grips the frame in 3 places on the top & bottom. When holding it in landscape, the bottom grips are easily released so that you can prop it in the stand, and I like that I have the choice of two viewing angles. No complaints from me!

I got the "Kindle Fire Leather Cover by Marware" in black.  It is nice quality and I'm very happy with it.  I especially like how easy it was to insert the Kinde and that it converts to a stand when watching video.  It seems to offer pretty decent protection, especially on the corners.  An elastic strap keeps the cover closed and another bigger strap is inside to help hold the case while it's open.

I have used Oberon covers in the past for my other Kindles.  I love those too, and was going to go that route for the Fire, but thought I would give something else a try.  So far I'm happy with both my Fire and the cover!

I got this case as well while I wait for the Oberon I pre-ordered. I actually like the case better than I thought I would. The Fire fits snuggle inside. All four corners are protected. You can charge while in the case. The stand function is easy to use and works well. I like the elastic band that holds the case closed. If you want a basic case that also functions as a stand, this is a good choice. It was also pretty inexpensive-less than $15 when I ordered it. Think it's gone up a couple of dollars now, but still less than $25.

I am using my K3 cases right now, they fit beautifully.  I especially love the Icon Dancers Rest because of the glove soft leather and the deep black interior.  But it also looks great in my new Lodis envelope in nude.
