Once in a while I use our Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 (KF HDX) for extensive typing tasks when I don't have access to my large laptop or desktop PC.  The KF snaps in easily and there are cutouts and openings for all ports, cameras, buttons, etc..  The keyboard needs to be fully charged via Micro USB to USB cable, and easily pairs up with the KF using Bluetooth.  Provides basic protection against minor bumps, scratches, and drops.  The magnets did not dislodge from my sample case after one week's use.  Limitations: ONLY two viewing angles with very minor angulation differences.  When the case is closed, the tablet screen (with a screen protector I've previously installed) is protected from the keyboard with two measly rubber tabs along the edge.  The finely textured fabric on the outside provides a good grip but looks ungainly and is susceptible to staining.  The case weighs a hefty 490g/ 1 lb. 1.3oz..  The elastic closure strap is so passé.  This case is primarily intended for typing tasks, and is not comfortable for browsing, reading, games, video conferencing, and other functions that require folding the keyboard underneath the tablet (the hinge is not secured; the tablet can flop open) and holding the case, or multiple viewing angles.
