Speck Armor Skin Case for iPod nano 3G (Black)

 (7 customer reviews)

This black, Speck case for my iPod Nano 3rd generation arrived quickly. It came in good packaging, and brand new - just as described. No imitations here, so the price was a steal for the real thing, as Best Buy charges over $10 for a similar case.

I almost threw the packaging away, when I realized that the case comes with a little, see-thru plastic front plate that goes onto your iPod as you put on the back protection - which provides additional protection from scratches from the front. Good bonus, as this is perfect for my fairly rugged use in the gym and in my travels. Protection from drops and from front scratches without a Zagg Invisible Shield? I'll bite, Highly suggest a purchase.

This case is high quality and is a very nice accessory. The USB connector port is shielded and you have to remove it if you want to charge your ipod or add music, etc. but the case also comes off rather easily and goes back on the same. This thing will definitely protect your ipod from nearly any drop and only adds one or 2 cm to your ipod, making it easy to fit in your pocket.

I could write a whole book about any product, but let's be honest, customers want to know the pro's and con's of a product. You can make up your mind, but let me help:

Pro's:
-It's an affordable product to protect an expensive investment
-Looks brilliant!
-Protects iPod better than most other cases
-Fits like a charm around the nano, not a tad too big or small
-You don't need to take it off to turn on and off the iPod, lock the iPod or listen via headphones
-Plastic cover protects screen very well (Note that this is a two piece case, the black 'jacket' and the clear screen cover)

Con's:
-You have to take the cover off to charge, or plug into dock stations (but this isn't that big a deal for me personally..of you frequently use docking systems, you may need to consider that)
