Fintie Folio Case for Kindle Fire HD 7 2nd Gen 2012, Black | Slim Fit PU Leather Folding Stand Cover with Pen Holder, Auto Sleep/Wake

I have a very old Kindle which I use only to read eBooks. This was the only merchant I could find who still offered a cover. It's the same as my original cover so I expect it to last many years.

The media could not be loaded. I was struggling to find a listing that was specifically for the Kindle I have. It's pretty old as I bought it used off of mercari but the image comparing Kindles really helped. The case itself is amazing I like how it feels and it doesn't feel cheap. The purple looks really good in person. It's easy to use and put on the Kindle. The Kindle turns on and off with opening and closing. And it stays closed with magnets. Overall very satisfied with this purchase.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:It was purchased because it was to fit my 2012 Kindle Fire. It did fit. The only problem is the slots in the case used to access the volume and off/on buttons did not lineup up perfectly.

Yes it fits your 2012 kindle fire tablet, with all buttons and holes lining up with the gaps in the case. A little heavy but durable.

Fits my Kindle like a glove. Lovely item.

This Kindle cover is exceptional. It seems to be very sturdy. It fits extremely well and has well placed openings for the controls and charging port. It is a perfect replacement for a worn out cover from 2012.

The case is very protective, however it is too long at the top. I have to peel it up to be able to swipe down on my kindle. I’ve tried shifting the kindle around different ways but no use. It also has a strong chemical smell to it. I was going to send it back but there’s not many case options for an older kindle. I do like that is it’s compact and small to fit in my purse.

I'm happy to say that I finally found the perfect case for my Kindle 7" HD. I wanted one that provided enough protection but also would be light enough to hold in one hand. The first one I purchased was the Marware Revolve Genuine Leather Rotating, Standing Case for Kindle Fire HD 7" which is a very nice soft leather case but it almost doubled the weight of the Kindle mainly because of the inner hard plastic insert that contains the Kindle. If you're using your Kindle mainly for watching movies or using it in the standup position, this is the one to get. But it's much too heavy to hold in one hand to read or play games. The second one I bought was the Belkin Genuine Leather Standing Case for Kindle Fire HD 7". This was also a nice case and lighter than the Marware but I thought I could still find one that would be light enough to hold without having an aching hand and arm after 30 min. So I tried one more, the Fintie Kindle Fire HD 7" (Previous Generation) Slim Fit Leather Case with Auto Sleep/Wake. This is the winner, at least in my opinion. It is light enough yet offers enough protection for my Kindle. It also fit the Kindle better than the Belkin. The Belkin had four triangular corners that the Kindle had to wedge into whereas the Fintie had a pocket that the Kindle slides into. All three had the necessary output holes but only the Fintie had small holes for the speakers. Also, the Fintie has a hole in the side so that the Kindle can be charged with the cover closed. The only drawback is that the Fintie only has one standup position where the others have 3. Not a concern for me however as I doubt if I will be watching a movie with my Kindle. I am very satisfied with the one standup position. The Sleep/Wake is another nice feature the Fintie has and others don't. You also have to love the choices of colors the Fintie comes in. I got the black one but at $10, I just might get a couple more with other colors which is another selling point....the price. This is the one to get if you plan on holding the Kindle with one hand to read or play games or if you're just looking for an overall great case for a Kindle 7" HD.
