This seems like a cool case for 10 bucks, but I'm not sure if this would inhibit my ability to just throw the ipod in my pocket. Does any one have any experience with one of these cases?
I have this DLO one - looks like it might be similar? http://dlo.com/products/view/JJGame_touch2G I like it, i actually got it because it was cheap - and open item at Best Buy so it was $13. I needed something to put on there because the kids were pestering me to use it. Well, i've gotten wayyyyy used to the thicker ends, that now that there is a second Touch in the house - i'm lost with my neked one! I have my heart set on buying the SwitchEasy Torrent - but i'm worried i will really miss the thicker ends. Now, the DLO is thick enough i'd say it's not easily "pocketed". But frankly, the grip it adds doesn't matter - and I don't really have any pockets it would fit in any. I slip it in my purse occasionally (because, i carry it occasionally), or just carry from spot to spot... which is a pain. I can also say that the Touch survived a 4 foot fall onto cement in the DLO a couple of weeks ago too! Pretty sure it bounced on a corner before landing face up. If i came across a DLO for $10 - i'd get it in a heartbeat! Not sure if that helps at all though
Funny that there wasn't a thread on this earlier. And I have that elite case. As a matter of fact, I'm typing on it right now. It's ok but doesn't really give you that much grip
I have this case: http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Silicone-Vector-Sleeve-Yellow/dp/B00284AO7A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1263605650&sr=8-1 Exact same color. It's really good for gaming. It offers really nice grip and it absorbs a little bit of sweat. It's not too thick maybe 1mm but that's it. Check it out!
Yeah I've got a cheapo case that at least provides grip. I'm looking for a little thickness and maybe an ergonomic type case. The one I posted at the top offers that, but I have a 3rd gen and its for a 2nd gen. I see a lot cases that say 2nd and 3rd gen so I assume it'll probably work. I know the 3rd gen is a little bit thicker but probably not enough to make a difference.
I have these Belkin Ergo Grips for my iPod Touch 3G without the hand strip - it's not a typo -I have all 3 colors It's very solid, the "rips" give you a good grip. You can't see it on the picture, but it covers the black area from the bottom to just over the Home-button too the blue/indigo http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Silicone-Strap-Touch-Indigo/dp/B002W5V64K/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_2 the red/chili http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-F8Z524tt065-Silicone-Sleeve-Pepper/dp/B002RJUNMC/ref=pd_cp_e_2 the black/caviar: http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Silicone-Strap-Touch-Caviar/dp/B002RJUNLS/ref=pd_cp_e_2
Yes. In the middle of the device where the rips is smaller the case is thinner. No, I have not large hands, but one of my friends has, and he uses the same case after he tried one of mine.
I would recommend against getting them. They wear out if you use your ipod a decent amount. My dad had one for his iphone, completely trash after 2 months. Slipped off the iphone easily, no grip, color faded, bendy as hell. I had one too it fared a little bit better but I just got so fed up trying to get it out of my pockets, I trashed it. Now I'm sticking with my naked ipod or a hard case.
I've got it narrowed down to the Incipio 1337 and the Belkin Ergo. Anyone have experience with these two to make recommendations before I buy?
The Belkin one that includes a wrist strap is really nice. I use the DLO Gaming one(Jampad?), it comes with a strap but the strap sucks. The DLO Jampad though is a really nice case if you don't mind the extra thickness. I have an invisible shield on the front and back, and keep it in the DLO Game Case with the strap from the Belkin case, and I carry that in a padded camera case. http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/apple-ipod-touch-2nd-gen-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php?intcmp=top_nav http://dlo.com/products/view/JJGame_touch2G http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Silicone-Strap-Touch-Indigo/dp/B002W5V64K/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_2
I use a case, and I do appreciate the bit of added "bulk" just to hold on to. One thing I would mention, and I don't know if most cases are like this, but mine covers the iPod front and back except for the buttons and a "window" for the screen. This window is the issue that I thought was worth a warning. Because the case is a mm or two thick, and because the window "frame" comes right to the very edge of the screen, it sometimes makes it difficult to touch something - like a game button - that is very close to the edge of the screen. It would work better if the case stopped a bit short of the edge of the screen or thinned the material as it neared the edge. Just something to consider.
That's one of the reasons why I prefer the Belkin Ergo Grip. (see #10) There is 1 mm space between the case-frame and the screen.
i use speck fitted, its made of fabric at the back and covers the whole ipod. Absorbs some oil/sweat due to the fabric and grip is nice with it. with this mother, and a screen protector, i can afford to be a bit rough with the ipod knowing everything's covered. I even play my ipod while shitting.
