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.

Yes.. I have the blue case for my 1st gen Kindle Fire. These cases are great! Purchased mine early 2012 and it still looks great.

The only Kindle Fire HD's that have the Mini HDMI to Reg. HDMI for TV's is ONLY THE 2012 MODELS!! Unfortunately they removed one of the Selling Points for me (had the 2013 Kindle, sent it back and got the 2012 version). Even the more Expensive Kindle HDX's both sizes DO NOT OFFER THE HDMI outputs. What a terrible mistake in my opinion. Hope this helps answer some questions. Oh and NO ON THE Original Kindle Fire (not HD). Only 2012 Kindle Fire HD's 7" & 8.9".

I suppose so, since I bought the brand new Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 that came out right before Christmas of 2013. If a different model or design came out since then in 2014, I can't answer your question. I hope this helps.

This link should bring you to the page for this item. I think that it should fit the 2012 Fire HD. Check the web site carefully. Link:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GIY965M?ref_=pe_527950_34207370

My particular case is for the second gen (2013) kindle fire hd. Most cases list all the tablets they will fit. Just make sure the description states which generation kindle it is for.

I do have the Kindle Fire First Generation. I can't find the size on my account but if I remember correctly there was only 1 to choose from when the Fire came out.

This fits the Kindle Fire HD that was released before October. This previous generation will not fit the newest model. Finite, however, does have a model that will fit the newest KindleFire HD you just have to select that option from the drop down menu. It says Kindle Fire HD 2013. The model fits the newest Kindle perfectly.

I bought it for my Grandson who was born in April 2013 so I am assuming it is probably a 2012 model.

I wasn't sure about what generation my Kindle HD was. It was purchased in 2013. The on/off switch is on the long side of the rectangle and this case has a slot for the switch.

The 2012 version is what Amazon confusingly calls (previous version). Don't quote me on this, you'll have do your own research, but I think only the 2012 version is 7". That's the first generation.
