First time table owner - if I buy a cover for my Kindle Fire HDX, will I still be able to use the screen or is it one or the other?

Absolutely, you can use the touch screen on your Kindle. I have put protective screens on all my portable touch devices, ereaders, Kindles, Nooks, cell phones. It is relatively important to buy and put the screen protector on for obvious reasons of scratch resistance but it also reduces glare and fingerprints.

You can still use a cover with this screen protector. I have the Amazon Kindle cover plus another less expensive one. I prefer the Amazon cover because you can stand it portrait or landscape.

The techskin goes directly onto your tablet screen. If you have a cover, your screen is still free to use. The Techskin is just a clear protective, adhering plastic to protect the screen from scratches. It takes a few minutes to apply and a while for it to set.

Yes, the screen protector does not interfere with the screen it only protects it from scratches. I have the Origami Case and it works just fine.

Just a guy,Thanks...that helps me decide what to do. I checked again...to see if maybe I was going crazy...and I definitely 'see' previous screens after leaving them....sounds like a call to Kindle Support! As long as they don't take my Kindle without getting me a replacement FIRST! : )Thanks again

Hi Karen what I can tell you about the cover is that when I received it, my kindle didn't fit into the cover. Bottom line, what was advertised and what I received were two different items. I returned the cover.

I have a cover that was made for mine that I only remove if I want t use the tablet. I tried a screen protector on my first Asus 21, but I ruined my screen. It caused the screen to bubble, so because of the great 12 month warranty, I had to get my computer replaced. I would have had a very expensive mistake if it was not for the warranty. Be very careful if you use a screen protector-many are not safe and could damage your screen.

I can't find the model # anywhere on my machine but I have the new Kindle Fire HDX with the 7 inch screen. I think you are asking about the larger one so can't fully respond but it works beautifully for me. My second one is performing just as well on my quite old Motorola 'droid.

Yes! I have the 8.9 inch HDX. It fits perfectly! Does not cover the speakers. Does not get hot. Have easy access to all buttons. But there is one problem....it didn't cover the camera but the kindle senses that there is a cover and keeps requiring me to shift the kindle up within the case! ! ! But taking pictures and videos are not a problem

My kindle was a gift when it first came out so I am not sure about the size of the 2nd generation kindle. It may be too late to check the stats that Amazon gives but you should not have a problem returning a cover it if you are not happy with it. I ordered several covers and chose the one I liked the best and returned the others. I like it a lot and would buy it again. Hope this helps.

Well I got my kindle hdx 8.9 from staples then got my protection from amazon 18 days later.no problems.and amazons protection was cheaper. Use your mayday if it wont let you add it to your cart. They helped me 1 2 3 I was done.

Screen is exposed. I like mine that way. I want full access to the screen. It does help absorb stock if dropped, though.

buy the protection- you'll be glad you did. I've had to use it on 2 tablets- I had bought 4 tablets for my grandkids -it covers if the screen breaks which can happen very easily.

From what I've read the kindle fire screen is already anti-glare, and is a made with the gorilla scratch resistant screen. Kinda makes the protector worthless in my opinion...

I ordered this one for my HDX. SUPCASE Amazon All-New Kindle Fire HDX 7" Slim Fit Folio Leather Case (Purple) - Elastic Hand Strap, Not Compatible with All New Kindle Fire HD 7"/Kindle Fire HD 7" (2012 Version)/Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" I really like the case. It fits snug and protects the Kindle very well. As others have stated, on some apps (like Words with Friends), the case is backwards but I've gotten used to it so it's no big deal. Love the feel of the case and that when you close, it shuts off the screen.

This screen only works on Kindle fire HD generation 1. It will not fit any other generation Kindle, only generation 1. I had to buy 2 of these screens. The first one I got, only half the display worked. The 2nd one worked fine.

No it doesn't come with a cover but the Kindle Fire (or any other device) has screen protectors such as: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005S1CYO6/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 so you don't really need to worry about messing up the display. And while the soft rubber tip doesn't retract, it has not gotten dirty even though I leave it hanging out of the device - and I live in a very dusty climate in the desert.

Yes you can, no problem. BUT when I open a book the front cover goes to my left. Not so with this cover IF you want the Kindle to not open up-side-down. Leave it on auto rotate and all is well after the Kindle is fired up. No biggie, just an obvious over sight that surprised me.

I would ask for the replacement. I just ordered a replacement Kindle 2 because I had several such cracks that ultimately led to the darkening of my screen to the point at which I can't read the darn thing any longer. I learned my lesson, bought the Patagonia case (and sewed in my own modification so that it now actually holds the device securely). No more worthless leather cover for me.
