In the past, Amazon has add these covers to its inventory (and Prime shipping) fairly quickly. All cases that will fit the new Fire HD 8 are marked “All-New Amazon Fire HD 8 (6th Generation, 2016 release)”.

Amazon currently has these cases available for pre-order, however, NONE OF THESE ARE CURRENTLY ELIGIBLE FOR PRIME SHIPPING. The cases are showing availability dates starting September 22 and prices start at $4.99 plus shipping. Both offer decent quality budget cases that include Vegan leather options.

I have bought cases from both companies and been satisfied with them. Covers will soon be available from manufacturers like Fintie and MOKO. The good news is, there are other third party cases and covers on their way. The Amazon covers will be available upon the Fire HD 8’s release on September 21, 2016.

Today, when I was looking at cases, Amazon flashed a warning on the product page that said “We want you to know: This product is not compatible with the All-New Fire HD 8 (2016 release). The new Fire HD 8 is ever so slightly narrower and thinner, so I wasn’t sure the old cases would fit the new tablets. I had been checking the measurements of the 2015 devices and covers and comparing them to the new ones. I prefer not to buy the Amazon cases, partly because of the cost (I like to change out cases).

My new Fire HD 8 is due to arrive on Wednesday and I haven’t bought a case for it yet.
