The best case for iPod Touch...ever.

I just recently recieved my iPod Touch and this DLO Case and I love them both. Like others said, there is a leathery/chemical smell on the case but this is the case for all real leather products because the company must dip the case in a chemical to prolong its lifetime of use. This makes this case worth it even more. Also, please understand that most leather cases for electronics will need to be slightly stretched out so that the electronic will fit evenly; I noticed that the iPod Touch 8GB was just barely too big, but after slightly stretching the leather, it fit perfectly. I bought this case for $19.70, which is a great value for such a solid case.

Here are the pros and cons about the DLO Case:

Pro's:
-Leather (high quality)
-Protects the iTouch well
-Access to the entire touch screen along with the home button
-Holes/cutouts for each function (light detector, earphone jack, charger port, etc.)
-Belt clip on the back is sturdy and allows easy storage on self
-Inside pocket allows for storage of one plastic card (debit card, credit card, etc.)
-Small magnets help keep the flap closed when not in use

Con's:
-Strong chemical smell for first several days of use (smell is expected from leather products)
-Might need to stretch the case just a bit for a good fit

As you can see, this case has barely any cons and many pros. Get this...now, before the price skyrockets.

As good as the reviews say...and more

I relied heavily on the reviews for this item before I purchased it. I wanted something for my iPod touch that protected it, but didn't change its functionality. The dlo HipCase is an incredible product that does everything right. It is attractive, easy to use and provides protection and easy enough access to my iPod.

There are two benefits to the HipCase that I don't recall reading in the other reviews. First, the case's design helps overcome one of the "flaws" people have talked about when reviewing the iPod touch. With a traditional iPod, one could easily manipulate the click wheel to change songs, lower volume and pause play without looking at it. The touch features of the new iPods can make this difficult and unpreditctable. However, the HipCase helps this along. The bottom edge of the "window" provides a guide for your finger, making it easier to unlock the slide and even pause or change tracks without looking.

Also, if you have a radio or clock that can use an iPod, you may know that the thickness of traditional iPod cases, such as those by iSkin, make it very difficult for the iPod to stay docked without falling out, so difficult in fact that you stop using that function of the appliance. It is so easy to remove the iPod from the case that you'll feel like you have a new clock or radio.

I also found no difficulty tapping the edges of the iPod as some other reviewer have stated.

Some reviewers have stated that they were able to store their cleaning cloth in the little pocket provided on the flipup part of the case. I found it difficult to reliably get the cloth in the pocket unfolded. When folded, the thickness of the cloth prevented the magnet from connecting well. This is a minor inconvenience given the many benefits I have found in this product. Don't hesitate to buy it - and buy it from Amazon - elsewhere it costs twice as much!

Case for eternity, smell for a day.

First things first: yes, it initially smells. I dunno what sort of chemicals they used to store/create it, but the first 24 hours are likely to be trying ones for the nasally-sensitive.

That said, this case rocks. It's sturdy and handy; snug-fitting to the Touch; and the clip works perfectly for my sweat-pants at the gym. So, don't sweat the smell: it eventually dissipates, and you'll be left with a great case.

Nice Case

Nice case, the leather is a bit thick where it wraps around the face of the iTouch, making it a bit difficult to touch items near the periphery of the screen. Q and P on the keyboard are particularly tough to hit reliably.

Solid Case for Ipod Touch

This is the best case for the iPod touch I have seen. It protects the screen nicely and is sleek and elegant to boot. My only qualm is that after a month or so of use, the fit is not so snug. However, it's not to the point that it's slipping in or out. Very useful and classy overall.
