OtterBox Defender Series Case for iPod touch 2nd Gen and 3rd Gen (Black)

The OtterBox ipod touch case is the best case you can find anywhere. Trust me I tried a bunch of them.
First of all, it is basically two cases in one. You will find a hard shell case that completely encases the ipod. A clear screen cover is part of this shell. This clear screen will not change your "touch" experience one bit.

After you snap on this two piece hard shell, you will put on the rubber outer layer. This rubber outer layer is made of a rubber material that does not seem to attract too much lint like other ones do. It allows for access to the charge port and the audio jack, but also provides a flap that covers these completely. While the product does not claim to be waterproof, it comes pretty darn near and should provide ample protection against liquid accidents.

Once the case is installed, you will find that your ipod touch has been transformed from this semi delicate hardware to a very rugged one. The case is incredibly protective...Read more

This protective case should have been purchased when I purchased my iPod Touch. This case is not too big like I have heard people say when used on the iPhone. My iPod still slips into my pocket but not out of my pocket into the folds of the couch. (I lost my iPod in the couch at work for 3 days) The screen senesitivity is still on par when in the case compared to some static screen protectors.

Coniditions my iPod goes through: Cool, safe, bedroom > agonizingly hot desert heat > pocket of pants > tossed around in truck while driving on rough conditions (think earthquake in relation to the size of the Touch)>

Things I do on my touch: email, games, music, books, internet

The only thing I don't like is I have to take it out of the case to plug it into docking station on my radio. I wish I could find an extension cable.

Hope this helps.

Very happy with this case, now I feel more comfortable when my 6 year old plays games on it, we haven't dropped it yet, ( hopefully that will never happen ) It fits very snug doesn't move within the case ( own the 3G iPod Touch), we always use the USB cable to charge or to link with iTunes, doesn't fit in our players, speaker box, or car dock when in the case - would need to remove iPod from case to connect with all these devices ( less then a minute to remove or install ) - But that is only a small inconvenience for us.
We use it 99.9% of the time and LOVE IT!!! BEST PROTECTION YOU CAN GET !!! Bought it from Otterbox through Amazon and was very happy with their fast and great service.
