DLO HipCase Leather Folio Case for iPod touch 1G, 2G, 3G (Black) Reviews
Good product. Only problem is that it covers the light sensor. This causes the screen to dim. I had to take it off of auto dim so that I could see the screen. When I do this it causes the battery to die faster. High quality workmanship and feel.
The problem is that the light sensor hole of the Ipod was blocked in this folio case.
Just what I was looking for in an Ipod Touch protective cover. The leather is strong and yet soft for carrying in my pocket.
The shipping was instantainious and a very smooth transaction. Could not have been any better.
I obtained an Ipod Touch8G at Christmas. To protect it I got a DLO Hip Case.I just returned from an overseas trip during which I kept the Ipod in the case at all times.The Ipod stopped working(Blank Screen) and when I removed it from the case I found a small dent in the metal back. The position of the dent is where the metal clip is attached to the case. I will be sending the Ipod to Apple to see what the problem is.If they confirm that the dent is the source of the problem there will be no warranty. The design of the clip results in a point load condition on the metal back of the Ipod. It needs to be redesigned to spread the load. I do not know when the damage took place. It may have been sat on or stood on but whatever happened it would have fared better if it had not been in the case.
I have e-mailed DLO service but they have not responded.
I recently received a 32GB Ipod Touch as a gift (yes, I'm a lucky gal) and of course, I immediately noticed how easily smudged the back of the Touch gets. And slippery, especially if you spend lots of time like me playing games. Since I do the majority of my shopping on Amazon, I bought a skin from one of the 3rd party vendors. Unfortunately, it didn't provide a snug enough fit and I also decided I wanted more protection for the big screen since I will be keeping it in my purse (along with who-knows-whatever lurks in there!). My mistake was that I searched for "iTouch" vs "Ipod Touch" and instead of this case, I found a portfolio style which again, I ended up returning due to its poor quality. Let me state that I have had good luck buying cases before for my Zune and cameras from 3rd party vendors. BUT, for the Ipod Touch, I wouldn't recommend it. The problem I figured out is that the USB port is really big plus there's an audio port as well on the bottom which seems to provide a design challenge to the smaller, less-funded companies. I actually first saw this case at Best buy for $15 more and it was only when I searched for "DLO case for Itouch" that it came up on my Amazon.com page. So, basically, I missed out on buying this "perfect" case b/c I was typing in the wrong name - DUH ! This case is exactly what I was looking for. It's made of REAL Leather, and more importantly, it protects the screen. It also provides easy access to all of the ports and you do not need to take it out to charge it (as I had to with my 2nd purchase). I am relieved to say that "I FINALLY found the perfect case for the Ipod Touch".
