This case is very well made, fits the iTouch perfectly and is easy to slip the iTouch in and out of for docking (you can charge the iTouch while in the case). The clip makes it convenient for carrying while walking. Price was the best I’ve found.

I really needed something to keep my iPod Touch protected. This fits the bill very well and the price is way more than right. I haven’t been able to figure out how to switch the belt clip yet, but I like it where it’s at anyway.

This was a purchase for my son. He hemmed and hawed over which case to get for his Ipod touch and finally picked the Griffin. He loves the light-weightedness of it and also that the top cover comes off. The Griffin has a nice overall appearance.

The Good – Well, this is going to be short. I’ve gone through a few different iPod and iPod Touch cases over the years. This was — by far — the best case I’ve owned in the way that it was designed. The bulk was perfect. The top of the case flipped off and stayed out of the way without issue. The magnetic snap really snapped. This was close to perfection.
The Bad – After about a year, some of the black on the case around the edges had worn off to a darker redish color. It wasn’t the worst thing in the world.
The Ugly – This case kills the iPod battery. I used the case for about a year. I’d be VERY fortunate if I could go an entire day without performing a hard reset on my iPod Touch. I’d also have freakish battery issues where my battery would suddenly drain without any logical reason. I’d also have the odd issue of plugging the iPod Touch into my car radio player, starting the car and the iPod Touch going to a plain white screen. Now, to their credit, I called Griffin about the issue. They could not have been more helpful. Griffin said that in their testing of the case that they were unable to replicate this issue. They offered to send me a new case of my choice for free in exchange for this flipcase. I did not take them up on that offer, but instead just bought a new case. I think it is obvious the magnet in this case is simply too strong for what it needs to do. It pains me to say it — but this is absolutely a case to avoid.

looked at several cases, none come close to this one.
Have 2 of these, 1 for Ipod Touch, 1 for Ipod classic.
