If today I buy a KIndle Fire HD from Amazon how do I know if it is a 1st generation 2012 or 2013?

the 1st generation 2012 has the on/off & volume buttons on the edge & has a camera. The 2013 2nd generation has both buttons on the back & doesn't have a camera. the 2013 Kindle HDX is another version altogether & has the mayday button & does have a camera.

Two different screens were used during production. The only way to know which screen was used on your particular tablet is to remove the back and follow the instructions to remove the screen to see which connector is installed. The connector is the determining factor for the replacement screen regardless of whether you have 1st or 2nd gen tablet. Installation instructions can be found here: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Kindle+Fire+Front+Glass+Panel+Replacement/7930 or you can watch the video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XkxGEFfPyE

Mine is 3 years old. YOu need to search for a kindle fire HD 2nd generation specifically. check amazon for your equipment.. it will tell you what year your kindle is from then specifically search for that. this is how I found mine.

Nope. It is a bit small and both volume and the power plug in are covered. I assume we have the same Kindle. I just got mine and the box says Kindle fire HD. Is that generation 2? If so keep looking

This is for the new Kindle Fire HD which I believe was only released in the fall of 2013.Try this link for more info:http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/?nodeId=200783660&_encoding=UTF8&ref;=help_forum_kindle_forum

No, the kindle fire hd7" is wider than the kindle fire 1st generation. Wish it would, it is a very protective case, they will probably make one for the fire hd7" later, if they don't already

I got my KindleFire HD 7" as a Christmas gift in Dec, 2012. This case fits mine. If the dimensions of the 2013 version are the same then it should fit.

I'm not sure which is the latest model. As far as I know this is the 2012 edition

On the side of the box that the Kindle Fire came in are the letters HDX I'm assuming that that identifies it. Could be wrong, have been before. bj

That I don not know. Maybe call amazon kindle customer service and ask if the glass screen on the kindle fire hd is the same size as the hdx screen

My mistake was I ordered the kindle HD Fire 3pk instead of the regular kindle fire 3pk.The HD covers are a little bigger than the regular covers.Hope this helps!

The 2012 case is made for the 2012 Kindle Fire 7 HD and the 2013 case is made for the 2013 2nd gen Kindle Fire 7 HD.

Hello Donna Aponte - If you have the 2012 Nexus 7 purchase the 1st Gen. If you have the 2013 Nexus 7 purchase the 2nd Gen. The two gen's are not compatible with one another.

That's the one I have. I just have the original Kindle Fire. Its not HD or the bigger one. It works great.

I honestly don't know. I own a kindle fire, not HD as well (not sure of the generation).you could always get the cover and return it, if it doesn't suit you. Caution though if you are not a prime member, there may be shipping charges.
