Griffin iClear Hard-Shell Case for iPod touch (Clear) Reviews
I found the same Griffin iClear case for HALF the cost and when I saw that it had nearly a 5-star rating from over 25 people, I knew that was the case for me. After visiting the local Apple store and seeing that they wanted $25-30 for iPod Touch cases, I decided to visit Amazon and see what they had to offer. There is a generous slot at the bottom for a dock connector and headphones and I was even able to snap on my external mini-speakers. Even the price wasn't good enough, the Griffin iClear even came with a clear screen protector film and a soft cloth for wiping finger prints.
Some have complained that this case makes the sleep button at the top harder to push, but I find that it's actually easier for me to locate the button by running my finger along the top left corner and letting if slip right into the little recess in the case. I recommend washing your hands really good and giving your iPod a thorough wipe down before encasing it in the iClear, because you probably won't be taking it out again, 'cept to change the screen protectors. It's almost like it lines your finger up. It is an exact fit for my 8GB iPod Touch and adds minimal bulk to the dimensions.
Of course, if you don't want to even do that, get yourself an Invisible Shield protector. I've been very pleased with the iClear so far.
The case is wonderfull it fits the ipod touch really great and neat.But here i waht i did and i think you guys should try it.when you open the packet there is i a clear plastic cover on the case ok what i did what took out the cleaning cloth and wipe my ipod touch back and then took that clear plastic and press it on there and then smooth it out and after it had no bubbles i took a scissors and cut the edges so it fit my ipod touch perfect.Reason i did this is because i read alot of reviews and some people say the case sratches the back of your ipod and thats what i didn't want.Anways the plastic holds very good on the ipod and then i add the screen protector which i had no problems with because i read the instructions on it.Then i place the ipod with the clear plastic on the back in the case and close it and the plastic is still in place and it looks great that way i don't have to worry about my ipod sratch at the back.But i Must say over all i love this case and it works really great.
I am very happy with this case. I have dropped the ipod while in the case a few times now, and there is no damage to the ipod or the case. The ipod is thrown into my purse or backpack and the case is protecting the machine quite nicely. The screen protector that came with the iClear would have done the job nicely, but I had already ordered the other screen protector. I put a screen protector from another company on the touch's glass and the iClear case fits over it without a problem. I was worried the case would open on impact, but that does not happen. I won't repeat the other reviewer's comments about the case, but do have a few observations.
Although I have heard myths that the iPod touch and iPhone are indestructable I think that it is a smart move to purchase this product just in case. The Griffin 8167-ITCLR iClear Hard-Shell Case for iPod touch is an excellent investment. My iPod works functionally regardless of the several times I carelessly dropped it.
You need to make sure the screen is absolutely clean before you install the screen protcctor. This hard shell case works well as advertised. It protects both the screen and case of the IPod effectively without being intrusive. The good news is that if you do trap something, you can redo the application.
