Belkin Folio Case For iPod nano Case MP3 Player

...on because it was a Belkin case which I like that brand. It also was white to match the Ipod and it also looked quite appealing to me for my tastes.

The case is made of nice looking quality leather. It is stitched so it's not just cheaply glued together. The inside is very soft and smooth so it is not to scratch the delicate mirror finish on the reverse side of your Ipod at all. When the case is on, the size is about three times as thick as the normal nano which looks a bit weird but its height does not change.

When I purchased my Ipod nano, I have heard plenty about how easily they are damaged so I made sure along side its purchase I ordered a case. I chose this on because it was a Belkin case which I like that brand. It also was white to match the Ipod and it also looked quite appealing to me for my tastes.

Unfortunately the case was quite expensive coming in at about 15 pounds from the apple website but at least I was pleased to se it came with a "free/something to make it seem like your money was well spent" screen protector. The protector itself is a little film of plastic that is non-adhesive so it does not stick to your screen for easy removal.

The case is made of nice looking quality leather. It is stitched so it's not just cheaply glued together. The inside is very soft and smooth so it is not to scratch the delicate mirror finish on the reverse side of your Ipod at all. When the case is on, the size is about three times as thick as the normal nano which looks a bit weird but its height does not change.

The magnetic clip to lock the case shut was a bit worrying to me at first as I though that magnet and electronics don't always get along but after directly placing the magnet up to the Ipod and moving it around, no damage was caused. The magnetic clip is about medium strength so it comes off only when pulled- it isn't floppy.

The cutouts in it allow access to the middle controls, the hold button, the screen and the headphone slot. All but the hold button are perfectly fine. Unlike some cases there is no annoying plastic bit covering the touch sensitive pad and screen.

The few downsides I have with this case are for one its price and two the straps on the top and bottom holding the Ipod in. The top strap I find gets in the way of the hold button a bit. The bottom one means you have to remove it from its case in order to charge it.

In conclusion it is an excellent case. Like I said it has its downsides but its build quality is outstanding. Then again have a look at any Ipod branded stuff… its all overpriced so you'll have to get used to it. Oh yeah… I have dropped I a few times and it protected my Ipod very well :)
