Pros: A hinged clear hard case that shows off and/or color accents the iPod 5G or nano inside, depending on which of the included inserts you choose to use. Each case includes substantial iPod protection and a simple cord manager; 5G version also includes detachable belt clip and wrist strap options. Very good value for the dollar.

Cons: Headphone port on both cases is too small for earbuds other than Apple’s and similarly small options; both also expose Hold switch, while only 5G version exposes Dock Connector at all times.

A Note From the Editors of iLounge: Though all products and services reviewed by iLounge are "final," many companies now make changes to their offerings after publication of our reviews, which may or may not be reflected above. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.
