Do the keys on the keyboard scratch the Kindle HDX's screen?

I bought this for my granddaughter in February 2014. So far...no. No scratching - but she uses screen protectors on her Kindle.

Not at all. The cover surrounding the Kindle pushes the screen away from the keys.

No the keyboard does not scratch the screen. The keys are smoth and do not scratch and unless pressed down, the leather of the cover over the kindle keeps them from touching.

No, the keys are perfect. The keyboard comes off easily, like a magnet, and is very light. You can use the case alone or with the keyboard. I love this case!

Yeah I get smudge marks from my most used keys. I ended up putting a small price of cloth over the keyboard when I close it to prevent from happening.

Don't know about Kindle Fire HDX, but it fits my Samsung tablet, and the keyboard works great!

I have a Kindle Fire 8.9 HDX with the origami cover which folds into a tablet stand, so I don't use the keyboard cover for that purpose. I tried it once and it appeared sturdy enough but have not tested long term.

Good question. I don't think so, it has four rubber bumpers on the corners that contact the screen before the keyboard does. Will the bumpers leave a mark? I would say yes, but in the long run, and if you leave your screen dirty. If you excerpt too much pressure on the keyboard, it will surely contact the screen and it will eventually scratch it. I'm talking here with my experience with laptops.

Haven't had any scratches. The tip has a round flat disc to keep you from pressing hard and damaging your screen

No, the Nook does not get scratched when the cover is closed. The Nook part of the cover has a leather edge around it that keeps the Nook from coming in contact with the keyboard.

All the keys are labeled and just like a regular keyboard, except that the keys may not always be in the same place. It works very well with my Kindle Fire HD. Haven't tried it yet with my 8.9 Kindle Fire HDX.

It does noticeably. Though I feel I should also mention that you might have to slightly adjust your typing/pressure to the feel of the cover a little anyway, as you might find it slightly awkward/foreign on first use (though I've never used a cover before so it might just be me!).

hi brittany- there is no cover over the screen on this keyboard case so you should be able to use any thin film protector that you wish- and then i WISH you'd talk my wife into it- as she refuses to use one- and i am certain the nice $300 kindle is going to scratched up in no time-

Computer has a stylus, does not scratch the screen. I use a mat screen protector for better care even.

The keys have never scratched our screen. We do have a protective film on our screen though.

Yes. I use mine all the time for games and sometimes I slide it across my Kindle and it has not scratched my Kindle at all. Like I wrote it is a cheap item that really does work well for me. So I do recommend it.

I have had my keyboard cover for about 3 months now, and have not had a problem with imprints on the screen of my MBPR13'. The keyboard sits quite tightly onto the keyboard (i.e. there is little to no space between the top of the keys and the bottom of the keyboard's key coverings) which may explain why this has not been a problem.

I did not have that issue. How hard are you pressing on the screen? Make sure they are actual scratches and not sweat marks from your hand by cleaning the screen with a wet cloth, then drying the area quickly.

I guess... potentially. But the grey strap is soft, and the black elastic strips, which are a bit rougher, don't really touch the screen. The bottom one goes onto the black frame of the Kindle, and the top ones are half over the frame and half over the screen. In any case, the screen is a few milimetres lower than the frame, so I don't think the straps even touch. I've been using it for about 2/3 weeks and I don't have any scratches.

We put a screen protector on the screen. Plus the keyboard doesn't touch the screen unless you mash the case. We've had the case since nov. and haven't had any scratches yet.
