Another Great Case by DLO

| After searching high and low for a folio style case for my new iPod Touch, I was thrilled to see that DLO was offering a nice, padded leather case for the Touch. I have purchased DLO cases for my iPod Nano (1st gen), and for my daughter's Sadisk Sansa e260 MP3 player. DLO really makes nice cases for MP3 players. This new DLO HipCase Folio for iPod Touch is very soft and padded. The magnet closures for the flip cover are a very nice touch. The belt clip is built on the case and is very slim; unlike those bulky, cheap plastic clips like so many other manufacturers use. The plasic clips break easily and make the cases stick out from your belt far too much. The iPod Touch fits in this case perfectly, and all of the ports and buttons line up just as they should. You don't have to take the MP3 player out of the case to charge it or for anything else. It provides the right amount of protection without adding an ulgy, bulky look to the sleek, thin design of the player. I highly recommend this case to everyone with an iPod Touch! The price is great and the quality is superb! =o) |
Well worth the small cost!

I must say, I hate most of the hard plastic or soft gel cases they have out there for all the iPod models. For my iPod touch, in particular, the only cases out there were also open to the elements, which meant that my iPod screen would either be in danger of being scratched or damaged, or I would have to put a plastic protector over the screen, which would reduce the touch sensitivity (not to mention all the damn bubbles that get caught under those things).
Since the iPod touch came out, I've just been using the slipcase from my previous iPod, and have been looking for a case that both completely covered the iPod, but flipped open to allow the screen to be accessed without hindrance. This case does both, and you could not ask for a better product.
The case is soft leather, which looks and feels very nice and allows the flap to be bent behind the iPod without problems, and the flap is conveniently held in place while closed with magnets. There's easy access to all ports, and even a small hole near the top of the iPod for the light sensor, which shows good thinking on the manufacturer's part. There is also a belt clip on the back, which is handy if I ever need to use it. The Touch fits very snugly inside, but is still easily removable (unlike some other cases, which nearly require a crowbar to insert and remove).
My only gripe (and it's a small one), is that when in the case, the leather around the screen makes access to the borders a little harder, especially with web browsing (although it may just be my big fingers). Either way, it stopped being a problem after I was used to it.
This is hands down the best case I've had for any mobile device. It's obvious the manufacturer put a lot of thought into what iPod Touch owners really wanted. If you have an iPod touch, and you want good protection with ease of use, you want this product! Well worth the small cost! |
Best Case seen yet in USA

This is the best case and first time ever I found a great case for any gadget of mine in USA. Perfect fit, good quality, looks great. One reviewer has mentioned no plastic to protect screen, but I think that is ok because you are supposed to touch the ipod touch :) to use it, hence in fact if it had a plastic cover on screen, I would give it one star and not buy it.
This case also has a small hole cut out on top to let light fall on the ambient light sensor which automatically adjusts brightness of the ipod touch. Get this case asap. |
Excellent Case

| It's all been said by others. But, in case you find confidence in numbers, I will add my reassurance that, when it comes to look, assembly, feel of the leather, fit, and design, this is the best case I've come across for any of my gadgets. Does not add too much to the sleek thinness of the iTouch. Little pocket on inside of folding cover is perfect place to keep that soft screen-cleaning cloth that came with the iTouch - and so doing does not increase girth. Access to all ports, switches. When trying to touch something at the window margin (e.g., link on a web page), leather edges can slightly interfere with adult male fingers, requiring that the page be scrolled up/down or right/left. Reasonable protection: accidentally dropped the cased iTouch from chest level to parking lot pavement (aaaargh, heart-stopping moment while turning it on to check condition) but it came through fine. Without the case or a brittle case, and ....? |
Complete Protection for your IPOD Touch!

Honestly, I haven't found a better case than this for the Ipods that we own. My son and I have tried several cases and this one is just "IT". It hits the mark on everything. It's got a nice padded inside to protect against scratching, plus it holds your ipod snuggly inside the case so that it will not slip out. Also, inside, you will find a nice little pocket to either hold your cleaning cloth, money, license, Credit Card...etc. There is a magnetic closure on the flap but when you open it, you have access to ALL the necessary buttons. There is absolutely no need for the plastic cover that goes over the front of the ipod at all, which I think makes a four hundred dollar item look cheap.
This case however, while cheap in price, (*I got two of them for $19.20 right here on Amazon), does not look, feel or come anywhere close to being cheap or cheaply made. Amazon is my main place for bargains and if I'm looking for something, you can bet I check daily. There is usually not one problem with Amazon. They always seem to deliver with style!
This case does not fall short on style at all, even at the above price. I felt that not one thing was over looked and the quality of the leather was supurb. SO if you are in the position that I was in, take my advice and don't by case after case...stop right here. You found it! |
