Defintely protects
No question this protects your iPod from drops and scratches. Two things I don't like:
1. the huge clip gets in the way at times. It is too big for the product. Thankfully, it can be removed. I wish the loop it attaches to was metal instead of breakable plastic.
2. the case has to be removed to use the Belkin car kit. You would think they would make the case so it works with their own products. It does not have to be removed to use with the Apple USB cable.
Good thing, my iPod still looks like new and has sustained no damage after 2 years. In addition, the touch circle is very responsive.
overall good
Overall good, no problems like a few others have had. My one issue is that it is a bit hard to move the hold key with it, but not impossible.
great case
this is a great case for a 2nd gen iPod. My daughter likes to clip it to her belt loop or purse or whatever she happens to have, and it works really well. The plastic case also keeps the iPod safe from bumps.
I would recommend Belkin Case with Carabiner Clip for iPod nano 2G (Clear).
Highly Recommended
This is a great case. Protects all parts of nano and is recommended for the second generation nano by the official ipod website. This is the best cover for my ipod ever!!! You can still reach all ports on the ipod while this case is on it. Fantastic!
Works Great
Personally I don't like cases for my iPod's. But if you want them to last they need to be protected. And this is good case for that. It's tough and very protective. But the carabiner is crap, so just pitch that and get your self a good one at the hardware store.
While it protects, it preserves the looks of my wife's red iPod nano (2nd gen).
Be sure to read the one star reviews, and then buy one of these you won't be sorry and you will be informed.
