Only issue is that the clip on the back seems secure, but is not easy to operate (ie, not easy to open to put on/take off a belt). Ordered this case for my iPod and am very pleased. Easy access to all ports, safe, secure.
Definately glad I made this purchase. this particular kind of high-density plastic shows a hazy rainbow with my sunglasses. Only one small complaint: its difficult to see through the screen with polarized sunglasses.
Its hard. Rubberized edges do very well at protecting the edges. This is exactly what I needed to protect my investment.
The case fits my 160 classic like a glove. A very small cost to protect not just my ipod, but also the huge amount of time I have invested in it. Its clear where it needs be and doesn't constrict or deny access to any ports.
The latch is very secure.
One thing that it does not have is a cover at the bottom so it is possible that this location may get dirty, but this is not the end of the world. Two locking mechanisms and the case hinges in 2. I have bough several cases for my I pods and this is by far the best so far. I take my I-pod in and out of the case often, so the easy and speed that this cover allows is great. In and out in 5 seconds The screen is clear and easy to see. Access to the connection ports are easy to plug in.
Removable belt clip.Cons: Scratches easily, but better than having a scratched iPod. Click wheel remains uncovered/unprotected. I've used Contour Showcases on my iPods since they became available. Not much cushioning in case iPod gets dropped. Using belt clip results in iPod aligning horizontally instead of vertically.Overall, this is a decent case that's easy to put on and remove, protects most of the iPod from scratches, and will confer a slight degree of extra protection in case of drops.NOTE: This 160GB iPod Classic will also fit in the Showcase for the 80GB iPod with Video, which is slightly cheaper. I've tried many others, but I keep coming back to this one.Pros: Easy to remove iPod from case - a definite plus if you dock your iPod frequently or connect it to various accessories. Sharp appearance.
I've had just about every type of case imaginable for my ipods and this one tops them all.The downside is that the clear plastic is very susceptible to scratches and the belt clip is a bit difficult to use. I dont want to make an overly wordy review, but the case is great. Very sturdy, clean design that doesnt detract from the look of the ipod.
