Lots of dedicated case covers have been already released by third-party producers. You can also use the case from the 2017 model, on the condition you don’t need a built-in speaker.
The entry-level Fire 7 (2019 edition) costs the same as its predecessor but sports twice the storage and hands-free Alexa.
It also features a front camera that has finally a better resolution (2 MP versus 0.3 MP in the previous model).
Another improvement is microSD card compatibility. You can now use cards that are capable of storing even 512 GB of data.
However, most other features are the same. Although Amazon claims the new model has a faster processor, tech specs don’t prove it. In both the 2017 and 2019 model, Quad-Core 1.3 GHz processor with 1 GB of RAM is used.
If you wonder whether to upgrade to Fire 7 2019, think twice. The new model, besides better storage, is mostly the same. It especially refers to the 1024 × 600 px screen, which is the same since September 2015.
Best Amazon Fire 7 case covers – highlights
In the following list, you will see:
- Lightweight tri-fold stand cases
- Book-style folio cases in several colors and design variants
- Cases from Amazon’s most favorite third-party case sellers
- Fabric stand case – the best alternative to original Amazon Fire covers
- Designer case covers with new 2019 artwork ideas
- Water repellent sleeve
- Multi-port charging station
- 512 GB microSD card
Will previous Fire 7 cases fit the 2019 model?
Yes, and no. The newest Fire 7 has exactly the same dimensions and shape (see the comparison table below).
Fire 7 dimensions ( height × width × depth )
| Model | Inches | Millimeters |
|---|---|---|
| Fire 7 (2019) | 7.60 × 4.50 × 0.38 | 192 × 115 × 9.6 |
| Fire 7 (2017) | 7.60 × 4.50 × 0.38 | 192 × 115 × 9.6 |
What’s more, the position of most buttons and ports is also the same (see the tech spec comparison below).
There is only one – but substantial – difference. A built-in speaker has been moved from the back (bottom left corner) to the side of the tablet.
As a result, each case designed for previous-generation model will cover the speaker of the newest Fire 7 released in 2019.
You won’t be able to use the 2017 case if… you are using integrated speaker heavily – for watching movies, playing games, or making video calls.
You will be able to use the 2017 case if… you use the Fire for reading ebooks, checking out emails, or browsing the web. You can also use an old case if you are used to using external headphones or speakers.
In the list below, you will see the growing number of Amazon Fire 7 (2019) cases offered by top case sellers on Amazon, plus new designs from other websites as well.
Nevertheless, we will update this overview with new interesting cases as they arrive, so don’t hesitate to come back in a few weeks.
Amazon Fire 7 (2019) – the best case covers and sleeves
1. Shockproof water repellent 7-inch tablet sleeve
Our pick: Best sleeve for Amazon Fire 7 tablet
Have you ever considered getting a solid tablet sleeve instead of a case cover? The sleeve protects the device while carrying it – and in most cases, this is all you need.
When you use a tablet, most damages are made to its display – a case doesn’t help; you need a screen protector. If you don’t heavily use a built-in stand in your case, a sleeve is worth considering.
Take a look at a sleeve from Evecase. It’s a highly popular design on Amazon and will fit the 2019 Fire perfectly. With inner dimensions by 1 cm higher than the size of the tablet, you will easily slide the tablet in and out, while giving it 100% protection.
It’s worth stressing that the sleeve is not only shockproof but also water repellent. It comes in four color options and features a large front pocket for cables, charger, earphones and other essentials.
2. Fintie tri-fold slim shell Fire 7 (2019) case
From Fintie comes an ultra slim and lightweight tri-fold case with a built-in stand and sleep/wake support.
The functionality of the case is similar to other smart covers, but what we love about Fintie is a wide range of colors and designs – including the ones introduced in 2019. The good thing is that the most popular designs and patterns are used again in newer-generation models.
The slim shell case from Fintie is one of the most popular Amazon Fire 7 third-party case designs.
3. Original Amazon Fire 7 (2019) kid-proof case
Amazon Fire 7 Kids Edition is available separately (list price is $99.99), and includes the new Fire tablet, kid-friendly case, and 2-year worry-free guarantee.
If you, however, prefer to get the regular tablet and tailor it for family members by getting relevant cases, you’ll be glad to hear that the original kid-friendly heavy-duty case is already available on Amazon.
Compared to the Kids Edition, the case is offered in five instead of three colors: Black, Blue, Pink, Punch Red, and Purple.
4. Book-style case with stylus loop and hand strap
If you are looking for a solid Fire 7 case that gives a feel of holding a real book, check out the range of stand covers released by MoKo.
Each variant is made of faux leather, with soft microfiber interior. The tablet is being kept in place in a leather frame instead of a plastic shell.
You can turn a case into a stand (two positions: vertical or horizontal). There is also a hand strap making it easy to hold the Fire in one hand. Plus, there is a loop to keep your touchscreen stylus always with you.
The case is available in a largest number of color and design variants: over thirty!
5. Slim Bluetooth keyboard Fire 7 case
If you want your Fire 7 to help you do more than just watch Prime videos or check out emails, you are probably thinking about getting a Bluetooth keyboard.
One path is to get a universal tablet keyboard and keep it for a longer time, as it will be compatible with the current Fire and a few upcoming devices.
But if you want to save on the keyboard and the cover, you should get a two-in-one accessory: a solid case with a detachable Bluetooth connected keyboard.
One of the most affordable keyboard cases for Fire 7 (2019) is the one from Fintie. It’s ultra slim and comes in seven colors. The keyboard features real laptop keys that are made of premium ABS material.
6. Tri-fold fabric case tailored for Fire 7 2019
Are you looking for an affordable lightweight case that works similarly to Apple’s Smart Cover? Take a look at Poetic Slimline tri-fold design. You can fold the front cover to form the stand, both for horizontal (typing) and vertical (viewing) position.
The magnetic closure keeps the case securely shut, while the soft microfiber interior prevents the screen from scratches.
The outside is made of the premium fabric, giving the same feel as the original Fire 7 case from Amazon. You can choose from four color options: Black, Pink, Blue, and Purple.
7. Designer tri-fold Fire 7 smart cover alternative
Hungry for even more designs and patterns? Check out the slim and lightweight Amazon Fire 7 case from Detuosi that’s already tailored to fit the 2019 model.
You can choose from over ten variants. You’ll find here popular designs: Butterfly, Classic Owl, and other geometric patterns, painting-style art, or art inspired by nature.
8. Colorful natural Amazon Fire 7 sleeve
Have you ever thought of giving your Fire 7 tablet a different kind of protection? What if you need to protect the device only when carrying it? A sleeve is something worth considering.
And when you start exploring the sleeves, the choice becomes almost endless. Our favorite place for tablet sleeves is Etsy. The sleeves are made of light and durable handmade linen and have a 5 mm lightweight foam to protect your tablet from scratches, bumps, and grime.
You can choose from dozens of different colors. When making an order, select “Fire 7” from a drop-down menu.

10. Heavy-duty Amazon Fire 7 case
Opposite to the case featured above, this heavy-duty Fire 7 (2019) cover is made of a flexible but sturdy silicone that’s non-toxic and can be used by kids.
Raised sides and extended edges protect the tablet’s screen and make it easier to hold it in one hand. There is also an elastic hand strap for that purpose.
11. Minimalist folio stand case for Fire 7 (2019)
Top features: Stylish, lightweight design; lifetime warranty
With 0.4 in (9.6 mm) of depth, the all-new Fire 7 is quite thick. Therefore, the perfect case would be the one that’s as thin as possible.
Such is a folio case from MoKo. Thanks to using advanced materials and a folio structure instead of tri-fold, the case adds as little as possible to the overall depth of the tablet.
The case is available in a few minimalist designs if floral or artistic artwork is not your world.
12. Premium flexible back Amazon Fire 7 case
Here is another third-party tri-fold case for the 2019 Amazon Fire 7-inch model. It has just been released by Dadanism, and it one of few available cases that offer premium glossy look.
One interesting feature is a backshell made of transparent (but referring to a color of the front) flexible PU material. Thanks to that, you can not only play with the color of the tablet itself, but also remove the case easily any time you want.
You can choose from a few colors, including Rose Gold (shown above) and Lucky Tree.

Amazon Fire 7 (2019) – the best accessories
16. Anti-glare screen protector 2-pack from NuPro
Most cases provide scratch and dust protection for the sides and back of a tablet, while most damages are made to the display – when you are actually using the tablet.
That’s why many users buy a screen protector together with a case.
A decent one from NuPro, a proven seller of tablet accessories, is all you need. It’s easy to install, comes with an application card and a cleaning cloth.
Most importantly, for the price of one item, you get a 2-pack.

18. 512 GB microSD memory card for Fire 7
One of the biggest benefits of the 2019 Amazon Fire 7-inch tablet is that it supports 512 GB memory cards.
Imagine how many games, audiobooks or Prime movies you will be able to download for offline use!
Memory cards are not cheap but once you get one, it will be useful for more than a lifetime of one generation of Amazon Fire tablet. Treat it as an investment rather than an expense.
A microSD card from Samsung’s Evo series is a good investment. This high-performance 100 MB/s card is waterproof, shockproof and x-ray proof. It comes together with a full-size adapter.
19. Multi-port cube smart charger
