MIP INC Classic Hard Case with Aluminum Plating for Apple iPod 80gb 120gb 160gb (Black)

I just received a slim 160GB iPod Classic for Christmas and while it looks very sleek and shiny now, I was afraid it wouldn't stay that way for long without a little help. I didn't want some rubber or silicone case that covers up the classy design of the iPod itself, so I began browsing the hard acrylic cases that are out there. This one seems to be the best by far. Its clear back piece allows you to see that nice, shiny iPod showing through, while the front has a fairly tough piece of textured aluminum (in black, to mimic the front of my player). It's a fairly simple design that just works well. The clear screen cover gives you a great look at the iPod's screen, and the side cutouts do allow you access to all ports and buttons. It's only going to be defensive against scratches, nicks and the like...there's no cushioning or shock absorbent material inside. So if you plan on dropping your iPod a lot, you may want to look elsewhere.

I have a 160gb 7th generation I pod and this cover fits perfect. It snaps on easy and fits tight. I like the cover over the screen as additional protection. I also like the opening for the adjustment wheel. It's very sturdy and offers great protection without adding much bulk. My I pod still slips easily into my pocket. I have no problem using the headphone jack or the charging port with the cover on. The Black color looks good on my black I pod.

Looks great. The aluminum plate started coming off within one day…womp womp.

I have been using this case with my iPod Classic 7th Generation for some time, and it has probably been one of the best statements I have been able to make. The case is a hard shell design than combines two pieces into one. The back plate is completely plastic, exposing the clean of scratched back of your iPod, and the front is also plastic, but has an aluminium plate on top of it. It almost looks like a vinyl record label! If you are one of those people, like myself, who wants good protection, wants to keep their electronics like new, and wants it to look cool at the same time, this product is definitely one to try out!

Very nice color and there are stylish grooves in the front. Although it is plastic I have dropped it a few times and it has not broke. It is kind of hard to get apart. The back is clear also the plastic over the screen. There is no plastic over the clicker and the lock and the place for the headphones as well as the place were you plug it into the computer. I am VERY satisfied by this purchase.

I recently purchased an iPod Classic 160 GB. I wanted something reasonably priced to keep it protected from scratches. This case is made out of hard plastic and comes in two halves that snap together. All the holes line up perfectly for charging and plugging in your listening devise as well as access to the function lock. The click pad is recessed so it is free from interference. A plus is that it can easily be opened if the need should arise. I am very pleased with this product.

This case is great, it makes my black ipod not look scratched up and gross in the front. The black front has some texture so it's easy to grip while I'm at the gym and it doesn't go flying when my hands are a little sweaty. It is pretty heavy duty. I haven't dropped it yet but I'm sure it will keep my ipod looking good if I do.

I wasn't really sure what to expect from this case but the price was low enough (~$15) for me to give it a go. I am disappointed that the front of the case is not made of aluminum. It features a black front with a circular texture but it is all plastic. In fact, the entire case is made out of plastic so I am not sure why it is described as being aluminum platted. That was a little disappointing as it does not fit the description of the case. My second disappointment comes from the was the case is held together. The front (non-aluminum platted) half snaps onto the back plastic plate. It fits securely enough but dropping the iPod from a short distance onto any side/corner causes the case to pop open. The fit could be a little better as one corner of the case (on my 160GB iPod classic from 2009) doesn't fit as seamless as the others. The case has some positive aspects though: it is light, inexpensive, low profile, and does a good job of showing off the iPod in a stylish manner. This definitely isn't the best case on the market by any means and should only be purchased by people who are careful with their iPods. It won't help protect against bumps or drops as it protects against cosmetic damage from everyday activity, that is about it. Other companies make better cases, such as iSkin and their eVo line, but they are also 4-5 times more expensive. You get what you pay for and that is really evident with this case. Not a bad purchase at $15 but not the best either. A few aspects could have made this a much better case such as having a way to secure the front and back plates together without having them just snap in place (some type of plastic hinge with a clasp). Actually having aluminum plating would have bumped my score up to 3.5-4 out of 5 stars. Instead it sits at about 2.75 stars out of 5 so I rounded up to give the case a 3/5.

Good and sturdy, thanks for the good service

Zu klein passt Nicht drauf sehr schlecht gäbe es 0 Sterne wären 0 Sterne
