Review: Flimsy Origami for Fragile Kindle HDX

I thought for sure I would like this different type of cover for the kindle but I don't. It feels very flimsy in the hands when trying to fold it back.  When I looked at the picture of the origami with the Kindle HDX, it gave me the impression that the device slid into a "black frame" providing support all around the HDX. I thought that would provide some protection as well but its obvious that I didn't read the description completely.  The entire backing of the Origami is like a huge magnet and clings to the back of the HDX. So when opening and closing the front part of it, that is where it feels flimsy in my hands. I will be returning the Origami back to Amazon and have already ordered the Otterbox for protection. I have always used Otterbox for my IPhones and have been very pleased with their products. My Origami arrived sooner then the HDX. After my HDX arrived and actually had the device in my hands, I felt that better protection is warranted especially for the price we paid. In my opinion, HDX feels so fragile compared to my Ipads and previous Kindles. When the Otterbox comes in I will be posting a review on that as well.
