Good-quality, durable, sturdy case... would recommend to others
I was in two minds whether or not to purchase this case as it has received mixed reviews from others, but I ended up purchasing a purple origami case for my new Kindle Fire HDX.From what I've found, it's one of the smallest cases you can get for the Kindle Fire HDX but it's still sturdy enough that I feel safe with my Kindle in it. I haven't tested this out by intentionally dropping my Kindle, but I'm not rich so I don't want to take the risk. ;-)Due to its small size, I was surprised at the weight, but I really should have guessed it would have a little weight to it due to the magnets, which I am very impressed with. The magnets work very well and once you have folded the case correctly, they maintain their position very securely. It folds perfectly when in landscape (wide) position, but as some others have mentioned, it doesn't sit as perfectly with in portrait (tall) position. Personally, this doesn't bother me in the slightest.I haven't had any problems at all with the power or volume buttons, which I know some others have mentioned. I found that the buttons function just as well as when I used my Kindle without a case.I wondered what the sound quality would be like since I read others complaining of diminished sound, but I didn't notice any discernible difference. Also, I'm very happy that I don't have to remove the case to charge my Kindle (very handy!).The only real down side that annoyed me was the price. I got mine "on sale" for $50... come on, that is NOT a sale price. I would have considered this a fair deal at $25-$30, but for me, $50 is expensive for just a case. That being said, this is the only reason I haven't given it five stars. I think it functions very well and I'm extremely impressed with the overall quality and style of the case, and as icing on the cake, I even love the color! I would definitely recommend this case to others (but if you can find it REALLY on sale, please do!).

Origami Cases Work Great!!!
I bought a purple case for me and a black case for my DH for his birthday. Both of us LOVE our cases.They both perform as expected. When the case cover is folded all the way to the back the kindle does NOT turn off prematurely. When the cover is folded in the stand position it holds the Kindle in the landscape or portrait positions beautifully. We were careful to make sure that we placed our Kindles into the case properly with the bottom corners of the Kindle fitting right into the bottom corners of the case. With the Kindle and the case properly lined up the on/off and volume buttons work perfectly. I also LOVE the on/off feature when lifting or lowering the cover of the case. It is sooo much easier than the on/off process that I have to go through with my netbook. So quick and easy.I also bought two Evecases (7"- 8" size) with handles in purple and in black with red trim and zipper to carry our Kindles in. The cases are roomy without being too large and I think that you might even be able to fit a Kindle Voyage in there with the Kindle Fire but don't have a Voyage to be able to try it out. The Evecases have a zippered front pocket to carry your Kindle accessories in. ( stylus, microfiber cloth, spare power cord, auto plug, spare wall plug and ear buds) This gives you instant portability without having to search around for all those separate pieces when you're going somewhere.NOTE: It is true that if you drop your Kindle/case combo on the ground just right that your Kindle CAN pop out of its' origami case. Since this was concerning to me I decided to buy some double sided scotch tape and put 4 pieces on the back (one on each side) of my Kindle before re-inserting my Kindle into the origami origami case. Since then I have dropped my Kindle occasionally and the case has stayed in place with no problem. Despite this one little issue that I feel that I have solved we are both very happy with our Kindle Origami Cases!!!!

5 stars if it were lighter
This case is heavy. However it stands up great (if you remember to put the two plastic sides of the wings together rather than the soft sides). Also, nothing is upside down, unlike the other cases in which the kindle home screen initially comes on upside down until it reorients itself...which does not effect using your kindle but is a bit annoying. I have no trouble with the case turning off the kindle while having the front folded back, as some reviewers described. The Kindle is secure, for the most part, but when I accidentally knocked it off the arm of the couch, the kindle did end up out of the case. When I hold the case, in a closed position, so that the cover is facing the floor, the front flap will flap open by itself, turning on the device. However, the Kindle will not drop out of the case.Someone mentioned a concern about the magnets harming credit cards. My understanding is the magnets on these cases are covered so as not to hurt the device inside, so it should not be bad for credit cards either. I will say, the magnet in front cover is strong enough to hold my stylus on it without needing a loop to hold it.All in all, I am glad I bought it. It is made for the kindle and it is a perfect stand for watching movies an reading while eating. All the buttons and openings are easily accessible.However, if my sole purpose had been reading and I would be holding the kindle more often than not, I would have preferred a lighter case.
