5.0 out of 5 starsExactly what I was looking for.
August 9, 2017
I am pretty picky with cases for electronic devices. With tablets, there are two things I look at when selecting a case. First, I look at the design of the outside. I don't like any buttons, kick stands, or elastics. These, in my opinion, are unnecessary and just get in the way when putting the tablet in a bag or on a shelf. Second, I look at how the tablet goes into the case. I immensely dislike the cases where there is a leather/pleather case around the tablet - taking up some of the screen. I like the screen to be completely open. This case met both of my criteria. There is no external unnecessary hardware. Just a simple cover that opens and folds back. I like the magnetic on and off feature. Also, the tablet snaps into the case. No screen coverages, nothing is in the way. I bought this case, snapped the tablet in, put a screen protector on it and I was good to go! Great case for the money, simple, easy, and exactly what I was looking for. The flag design is pretty sweet too...

2.0 out of 5 starsNeeds Improvements
July 26, 2017
I thought I was ordering the Poetic Case for my new Kindle Fire HD (2017) and ordered this instead. What makes this case a deal breaker is the case flap. It doesn't flip over to where the cover edge meets the back edge. It goes about 1/2 inch further below it making it uncomfortable to hold. Also, the cover flap wobbles back and forth when folded because it is not one solid piece that is connected to the cover. If they had connected the whole flap to the back cover and cut out the areas for the speakers it would have taken out the wobble. If they address these two problems this would be a nice little case.

5.0 out of 5 starsJust what I wanted for my Fire 8
August 24, 2019
Color: Z-BlossomVerified Purchase
I have a Fintie slim case on my Paperwhite and I really like it, so I ordered this one for my Fire HD 8 to provide some protection when it's in my purse or travel bag. I like that the tablet just snaps into the case without any straps or velcro. It's easy to remove and reinsert if needed for some reason. It folds back completely for holding in one hand, and it can also fold into a little stand for watching videos in landscape mode. The speakers are not covered. It's a different texture from my other one, but I like both. I love the Van Gogh blossom pattern which is very pretty. The case is lightweight, adds very little bulk, and if it's like my other one, it will do well in durability. I looked at many cases before I decided on this one, and it's just what I wanted.

5.0 out of 5 starsNice looking cover
May 8, 2019
Color: Z-Shades of BlueVerified Purchase
This cover is nice looking and the sleep mode feature makes it seem like somehow it "snaps" onto the tablet like maybe there's a magnet in there. Not sure.

However, it really isn't all that easy to hold because the thin little flimsy-seeming tabs that connect the front of the case to the back slide around. It works *GREAT* as a stand, but more often I read in bed. It isn't really comfortable nor convenient. Also, although they haven't yet, the flimsy tabs really do seem like they will tear fast. That may not be true, which is why I gave 4 stars, but I would not buy this kind again, as pretty as it is.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat engineering, nice aesthetics
January 14, 2018
Color: Dual ColorVerified Purchase
I realized quickly after purchasing my Kindle Fire it needed a cover. The cover for my old Kindle is thick, heavy and awkward: so I wasn't sure about the covers for the new versions. This is better than I expected. It's ultra thin, light and even turns the device off and on when opened and closed. The only downside to that is I have to unlock my Kindle each time. That becomes a pain, depending on how I am using the Kindle.

After looking at all the loud and gaudy covers, I chose this one. It's subtle, mature, and understated, but not a one-color plain Jane. The leather is warm in my hand and has enough grip so it doesn't feel slippery. I like the suede like texture on the inside. This not only gives me traction when the cover is held open, it is great when propping the device up on a surface for hands free reading or movie watching. At first it felt a bit clumsy when it was open, but I learned to fold the first flap over. That way the rear facing camera is exposed and I also have a good grip.

Later on I may buy the more colorful covers, but I really like this.

5.0 out of 5 starsNICE COVER FOR A VERY REASONABLE PRICE
June 20, 2018
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
Fintie Slim Case for All-New Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet (7th Generation, 2017 Release), Ultra Lightweight Slim Shell Standing Cover with Auto Wake / Sleep, Black

A very nice case for Kindle FIre 8 (2017 Edition/Latest) at a more than reasonably low price. Easy to fit the device into the case. All claims in the description are accurate, the product works for standing both horizontally and vertically as well as immediately putting the device to 'sleep' once the cover is closed. All buttons on the Kindle are exposed and easily accessible as well as the USB port for charging. The product is light weight. Initial inspection of the item brings to question the longevity and durability of the materials it is constructed with and which cannot be reviewed at this time. It is my opinion that this case will meet the demands of standard/casual use quite well, remembering that the product is intended as a case/cover/book style wallet for your Kindle and does not warrant protection against damage due to dropping from any height, immersion or user misuse and/or abuse. It should also be noted that the product does not offer screen protection and it would be advisable for the buyer to also purchase a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), or of tempered glass screen protector (which is advisable no matter the case/cover/stand/etc. used for any tablet/cellular phone/ etc.).

5.0 out of 5 starsAuto Sleep/Wake Function Not Working Properly
July 23, 2018
Color: Z-Moroccan LoveVerified Purchase
// Final Update - Fintie replaced the defective product and it arrived within a few days, and the new one works great. Definitely recommend that you go with Fintie - great product and great customer service! //

// Update - Fintie got back to me within a few hours of my initial message, and has offered to ship me a replacement in the same color. Awaiting receipt of the new item. ////

This case looks great, but the auto sleep/wake functionality did not work as advertised (I do have the Kindle Fire HD 8 - 7th generation, as necessary for this function to work). (I bought 3 Fire HD 8's and associated cases at the same time, and so I was able to swap out the tablets and isolate the issue to the case itself, not the tablet or settings.) I contacted Fintie directly for a replacement product - I will update this review if they resolve the issue in a satisfactory manner. Fintie - help me out here, let's get this fixed!

Otherwise, this case looks great - the tablet snaps securely into place and the tri-fold stand functionality works great. My daughter's love the color (Moroccan Love). Note that this case does block the SD card mount slot, so if you need regular access to that slot, this case might not be the one for you.

January 15, 2018
Color: Z-Starry NightVerified Purchase
We bought this for my daughter. When she picked it, I wasn't sure it would look good. It's so much better looking in person.

It has a way to view elevated, which my daughter really enjoys. It's lightweight and compact, which makes it easy to handle. It also protects the corners of the Kindle, which is a definite plus since my daughter is not as careful as I'd like her to be.

5.0 out of 5 stars**Updated Review, More of a 4.5 star product, but 5 star service!
July 12, 2017
Color: BlueVerified Purchase
**UPDATED REVIEW**
Originally I received an old version of this case. I have since received the properly portrayed product as seen in the pictures, so in my case I just got unlucky. I'm surprised with how quickly I received the correct product, and I have to hand it to Fintie for that. As suspected, having the plastic case surround all 4 sides of the tablet minimized the amount of slack the lid had when closed... but the lid still isn't flush with the case when closed. It only stick out 1/16" past the case, however. For many, and myself included, this probably isn't a big issue at all. Having it be perfectly flush is what would give it that true 5 star rating though.

However, I still rounded up for the excellent service! Otherwise I love everything about the case! It's really slim, and the magnetic stand holds strong. It gets two thumbs up from me!

**OLD REVIEW BELOW, Irrelevant because I simply received the wrong product**

In the official product photos, you can see that the plastic casing holding the actual tablet covers all 4 sides. It even boasts about precision cutouts for the speakers.

Now look at my pictures. The cutout isn't very precise, as the entire hinge portion of the case has been removed completely. So what? Why am I rating this 3 stars? The removal of that portion causes the lid to have extra slack when closed. You can see just how much in my attached pictures. It's not the biggest deal, but the fact that the lid isn't flush when closed makes it look like a cheap product (because this could've been avoided so easily with simple measurements, or actual precise cutouts).

Color: Z-Love TreeVerified Purchase
This image barely captures the luster and attention to detail of the Fintie Slim Case. When I first opened the package, I thought I was opening up a piece of stained glass from Notre Dame, or Chartres Cathedral. I was astounded by the riot of color and the vivid imagery. Perhaps they made a mistake and sent a Jackson Pollack? Alas, no. But, a Pollack doesn't have the functionality of this handy-dandy case. I'm going to buy more tablets just so I can purchase more of these!
