This particular transmitter has a large dock connector that absolutely must sit completely flush with the bottom of the iPod. Monster A IP FM-CH 200 iCarPlay Wireless FM Transmitter for iPod w/ Auto-Scan Most cases on the market, hard and soft, only provide an opening the width of the dock connector, which means I have to remove my iPod from its case every time I connect it to the transmitter, an annoyance I am not willing to suffer through daily.
The case is very pretty, and it will even fit over an iPod that has the InvisibleShield protective film installed (if a bit tightly), but here are the drawbacks, and these are deal-breakers for...Read more 12 of 13 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: Griffin Reflect Chrome Mirrored Case for iPod 5G/6G (Electronics) I have another Ipod case (Agent35) along with this one. This one is strong, sturdy and works well with my 60Gb ipod. Pros: - cool relfective case that makes your friends very jealous. - strong and sturdy - comes with two cases for proper fit of your specific ipod (fits very well). - has not scratched yet, though I haven't tried specifically to scratch it. - Added bonus: I like the backing of the case (black) because of the feel and it looks hard to scratch Cons: - very minor, but has a small vertical line below the play button where it was joined during the manufacturing process. One must look closely to spot it. IMHO it is the best one I have owned so far. 15 of 17 people found the following review helpful: By Xeon Negotiator (MA, USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Griffin Reflect Chrome Mirrored Case for iPod 5G/6G (Electronics) After looking into almost every case on the market, I decide to buy this case. Pos: Looks cools, you will get wows from people you show it to. Due to the shape of the case (see con) it docks easily, even to iTrip. Case is attached securely but still comes off when you want it to. Has two back covers for 30GB and 60GB, 80GB. Con: If you want to protect your iPod, do not buy. This cheap plastic shell covers the front and back of your iPod but leaves the scroll wheel completely exposed, as well as the bottom connection port. If you drop your iPod, it was receive the same damage if there was no case. The mirror effect darkens the screen, so turn up the brightness (drain the battery) to watch movies. Griffin claims the back cover is "rubberized", but it is still slippery. It scratches as easily as the iPod itself (mine came pre-scratched for my convenience). For what you get, they should have knocked $10 from the price. |
