 Inadequate Protection... sort of June 17, 2008
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
This is the first case that I bought for my iPod. This case excels at absorbing drop damage due to its thick rubber shell and strong corners. I have dropped my ipod in this case several times and was glad that I had the case.
The Speck case fails in three other areas, however.
1. If you remove your iPod for any reason (docking in a standalone speaker, etc.) then the rubber around the screen will stretch out and be ruined in short order. This is very frustrating because the screen protector no longer is sealed behind the rubber and has a tendency to slide around.
2. Dust, grit, and dirt get under the rubber very easily. No big deal, right? Well not until you take the iPod out of the case and discover that the entire surface has been covered in fine scratches. The dust and grit can get in but can't get out.
3. The swivel belt clip, while useful, leaves a circle of scratchy awfulness the size of a US quarter that starts at the bottom of the Apple logo. Very irritating.
In summary the case is good for drop protection but lousy for incidental scratch protection. I blame this case 100% for destroying the resale value of my iPod due to the scratches.

I was actually shocked how nice this was. It completely protects the iPod. Its rubber, so it's shock proof. Has screen protector, which was a genious invention. The clip on the back it flawless and strong.
A few silly problems:
1. The black rubber attracts dust and lint.
2. Docks virtuably become un-usable.
3. Lint, dust and dirt can get inside of case and scratch up chrome finish.
That's about it. Its the best case out there, even better than the ones by Apple.

This case is wonderful. It protects the iPod very nicely, and it was easy to put the iPod inside it. The screen protector is great and I like having unimpeded access to the clickwheel. This should be the first choice of anybody looking for a reliable iPod case.

Perfect fit for me. I like the fact that it can't just slip out of the case like others I've seen. Great product.
