Two designs are available: No Bad Days, and Mickey Through Time \u2013 something worth considering if you are planning to buy the 8-inch Fire tablet to be used by your kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides Disney, you can also see two National Geographic case covers, one with a parrot and the other one with a turtle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B085Z3LPKZ\/?tag=eflyaf-20\">Themed Fire HD 8 cases<\/a> offer the same functionality as original Amazon cases, with the support for auto sleep \/ wake and the front folding across to form a horizontal or vertical stand. What&#8217;s important, both cases support wireless charging (HD 8 Plus model only) that&#8217;s performed by <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Made-Amazon-Wireless-Charging-compatible\/dp\/B085RVS6FV\/?tag=eflyaf-20\">Wireless Charging Dock by Angreat<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Themed case covers cost $34.99 each, $5 more than standard Amazon fabric covers. The designs are tailored for portrait mode, and I think it&#8217;s a missed opportunity, as Amazon made a bold move to go for a <a href=\"https:\/\/ebookfriendly.com\/landscape-first-design-fire-hd-8-tablet\/\">landscape-first design<\/a>, and the newest 8-inch Fire is the first model in the range to offer the full horizontal experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope to see more themed case covers, and not only for the newest Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"tag tag-brown tx-meta tx-600\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07Y8YNDM6\/?tag=eflyaf-20\">\u21e2 Themed Fire cases<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disney Fire HD 8 case covers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized alignwide\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?resize=540%2C351&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Mickey Mouse themed Fire HD 8 2020 case covers\" class=\"wp-image-146952\" width=\"540\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?resize=540%2C351&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?resize=220%2C143&amp;ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?resize=768%2C498&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?resize=160%2C104&amp;ssl=1 160w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?resize=840%2C545&amp;ssl=1 840w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mickey-Mouse-themed-Fire-HD-8-2020-case-covers.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Available in two variants: Mickey No Bad Days and Mickey Through Time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">National Geographic Fire HD 8 case covers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized alignwide\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?resize=540%2C351&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"National Geographic themed Amazon Fire HD 8 cases\" class=\"wp-image-146953\" width=\"540\" height=\"351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?resize=540%2C351&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?resize=220%2C143&amp;ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?resize=768%2C498&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?resize=160%2C104&amp;ssl=1 160w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?resize=840%2C545&amp;ssl=1 840w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ebookfriendly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/National-Geographic-themed-Amazon-Fire-HD-8-cases.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Available in two variants: Parrot and Turtle.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>[ef-reco id=&#8221;146467&#8243; title=&#8221;Read also&#8221; info=&#8221;Top article&#8221;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in all things Amazon Fire?
