Belkin Leather Folio Case For iPod classic Case MP3 player

Advantages: Clean, Tough, Looks very well built
Disadvantages: Expensive, have to remove to charge, slightly gets in the way of the hold button

...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... Read review

Advantages: really protects iPod, connections accessible
Disadvantages: heavy, clickwheel less sensitive, screen scratches easily

...When I got my new iPod classic a few months ago, I decided I definitely needed a case to protect my new baby from scratches and getting broken rattling around in my bag. I opted for this smart case from Belkin, in a pretty light/bright green colour. I bought it on Amazon Marketplace and at the time it was some ridiculous price like 1p plus p&p from Germany of around £7. So overall pretty cheap as far as iPod accessories go. It is now for sale directly from Amazon for £13.99 or on Amazon Marketplace from £10. Aside from the green I chose, the case comes in black, silver, clear, blue, pink and probably more which weren't available where I bought mine. For the coloured versions, the front is coloured brushed aluminium with the back clear acrylic. The version I bought was made specifically for the new iPod classic 80 and 160GB models... Read review

Advantages: Works, cheap
Disadvantages: Headphone socket may be covered

...I treated myself to an iPod Touch last month - full review to come shortly, no doubt. One thing that drew me to the Touch was its looks: a beautiful, shiny stainless steel back and the large screen on the front. However, I soon noticed that the steel case soon lost its sheen and proved great at showing off finger prints! I therefore decided I needed a case. A quick online search showed a huge variety, ranging in price from a few pounds to fancy Italian ones at over £200. The Belkin was on Amazon at only £4.99, though had apparently been on sale at closer to £20. I thought it was worth a go as I was going to have to buy without seeing it in the flesh, and fiver seemed worth a punt. The case is leather, and comes in black or brown [mine is brown]. It's mainly plain leather, though there is a hexagonal pattern on the bottom quarter... Read review
