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.
