Review: It's good for a basic case

I was torn between the three and four stars, I'll admit. This case DOES get the job done, which is to be a slim case that helps the Kindle Fire HDX 7" fit well in my purse so I can carry it around and use it at work, etc., protect it and prop it up. I love the color choices and that it doesn't add bulk. The magnetic cover is okay, could be a little stronger but it does manage to stay close. The fit COULD be better, I find that I have to keep sliding it back up to help align up the power button or to make sure the power cord is fully seated in the Kindle. And you better plan on just using the screen if you want to play with the sound setting.You will have to set/stand the Kindle in landscape mode, there is no portrait stand with this case. For the most part, that's fine if you're listening to music, watching videos or typing/reading, but if you need a game or a screen that is only portrait mode, you're going to want another case fast. Hence the debate on three or four stars. However, for the price, the fact that this is lightweight/slim and that it does a decent job for its limitations, I think it's a decent case. Just don't go buying it thinking it'll do everything or that it'll free up all of the buttons.
