In this article we’re going to be looking at the best accessories available for the Kindle Fire HD. The Fire HD is looking like a strong competitor even after the announcement of the iPad Mini, costing much less and having better specifications in some areas, including a higher resolution 7″ display and a richer book & film ecosystem. Let’s get right into the top 5 picks!
5. Slimline Rotating Leather Style Stand Case
This Slimline Rotating Leather Style Stand Case comes with all of the features you need at a low price point thanks to the synthetic materials used in its construction. While it doesn’t feel quite the same as real leather, it’s vegan and looks just the same. The Slimline also includes a large amount of functionality, with a rotating mount that allows for both landscape and portrait orientations, with the tablet resting on one of three ridges designed to offer different writing angles. A great case if you’re looking for protection and a convenient stand without breaking the bank.
4. a-Jays One Heavy Bass Impact Earphones
The Kindle Fire HD is brilliant for watching movies and listening to music, but you’ll find its stereo speakers just don’t sound as good as a nice pair of headphones like these. With the a-Jays One, you’ll have a set of headphones designed to hit the lower ends of the spectrum hard, with excellent bass response that brings music, films and games to life. The One is a tangle-free set of headphones thanks to the flattened cable, too.
3. Quirky Converge Universal USB Docking Station
I’ve spent a lot of time with the Quirky Converge and I’m always keen to recommend it. The Converge is a stylish four USB charger that is more than adequate for storing, displaying and charging the Kindle Fire HD. This Kindle Fire HD charger can also charge up to three additional accessories, headphones or tablets simultaneously – not bad at all! With only one plug socket required, this is an easy way to clean up that mess of cable spaghetti in your house and gives you only one place to look for your devices.
2. Momax iPower Pro 8000 mAh Universal Portable Battery Pack
While the Kindle Fire HD’s maximum listed battery life is eleven hours, if you’re doing anything heavier than light web browsing or listening to music you may experience quite a few hours less than that. The Momax iPower Pro is an 8000 mAh external battery pack that keeps the Kindle Fire going for nearly three times as long, allowing you to refill the Fire HD’s 4400 mAh battery twice almost fully. That means if you’re going on an extended trip with the Kindle Fire or just want an emergency charger if your train breaks down, then you’ll be well covered. The Momax also works with a host of other USB devices, not just your Fire HD.
1. Marware Axis Kindle Fire HD Case
Unlike most Kindle Fire HD cases, the Marware Axis is made of genuine leather for that traditional look and feel. The folio form factor case even rotates 90 degrees, allowing you to easily prop up your Kindle Fire HD in portrait or landscape mode, allowing you to easily set it up to match your media – books look brilliant in portrait mode and web pages too, while films and games are better suited for that horizontal viewing angle. The Marware Axis looks brilliant and has all of the functionality you could ask for, making it a fitting conclusion to our list today.
