TOS Review: Kraken Case for Kindle Fire 8.9 HDX

Today I am reviewing the Kraken A.M.S. Case for Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 from Trident Case.



I love my Kindle.  I was late on the Kindle bandwagon because I thought by liking it, it would mean that I didn't love my books.  There is truly nothing like holding a REAL book in your hands (and I have a stack to be read on my nightstand), but I LOVE the convenience of my Kindle.  I can read while waiting at a doctor's or dentist's office or even at the kitchen table. We can listen to music at any time, do a quick internet search or even play a game.  I use it A LOT.  And, when something is used a lot, there is a great risk of it getting damaged.

I have always worried about the Kindle getting dropped or broken.  When I received it as a gift, I picked out a leather cover/holder for it, but it wasn't really durable and didn't protect the screen.

When I was offered the opportunity to review the Kraken case, I was thrilled.  The case is military tested for durability and strength.  It is a hardened, bio-enhanced, polycarbonate shell with a built-in screen protector. And for those of us (and our children!) that enjoy listening to music on our Kindles, it has enhanced audio! The sound was clear and we could hear it from the next room.  The buttons are easy to reach and are not obstructed in any way by the case.

I also liked that it is lightweight and protects the screen without a lot of glare.  I am impressed how much testing went into the production of the case-- under testing, it withstood rain, vibration, wind and more.

Here are all of the features of this attractive and durable case:


  • Hardened Bio-Enhanced Polycarbonate Shell
  • Shock-Absorbing Silicone
  • Built-In Screen Protector
  • Device Controls and Ports Protected
  • Shoulder Strap Compatible
  • Enhanced Audio
  • Military Standards (meets or exceeds MIL-STD 810F
  • Vibration (18 hours at 20-2000 Hz)
  • Dust Filters (3 hours at 29 feet/sec and sand at 3 hours at 59 feet/sec)
  • Rain/Wind (7.9 inches/hour of rain at 40 mph winds for 1 hour)
  • Green Protection (degradable, compostable and recyclable) 
  • Accessorize with Kraken A.M.S. attachments



I received a black case, but they are available in SO many different colors including black, white, blue, gray, pink, brown and more. They also offer cases for iPhones, Samsung, iPads and 7" Kindles.  The cases are for all ages.

The Kindle 8.9" HDX case retails for $69.95.

If you have a device that you value and want to protect, I highly recommend a Kraken AM.S. case from Trident.
