The Polyurethane Origami case is definitely a good buy and awesome case for the Kindle Fire HDX, but if you can afford the extra few dollars, I suggest getting the leather version, (Amazon Kindle Fire HDX Standing Leather Origami Case.After a few minutes of playing around with the folding front face, it is very easy to configure the Origami case to hold your Kindle Fire HDX in portrait or landscape with ease. This is great as long as you don't need varying angles of tilt of the device. But when I was watching a movie on a plane recently, there was a glare that couldn't be easily fixed as with some other cases that allow for varying tilts. Not a deal-breaker, but something to take into consideration before purchasing an Origami case versus a Belkin or competitor case that has varying tilt.As far as quality and construction, this case is solid. But the feel of the leather Origami case is much better. The leather case both looks and feels more professional and like it will last for the life of the device.This is a great quality case that will serve its purpose for protecting your Kindle while allowing a solid standing orientation. But it does have its minor drawbacks. I suggest trying it out to see if the single tilt display is a deal-breaker for your needs.
