it could've gone better

the product only took a few days to get here, and it looks very cool. however, be aware that it's very fragile. within a week or so, i accidentally dropped it on the floor and the parts holding it in the case broke :( unfortunately, because this is the second time the product broke (the first one DID last a little longer before i dropped it) i think i will go for something more durable next time. in addition, the surface is prone to scratches. nevertheless, it never ceases to look cool. if you're a careful user, i would recommend the case.

Updated Review: Bad, Bad Product

*Updated review, May, 2008: After just about 8 mos. of usage, the Griffin Reflect (for iPod Nano 2G) is now broken. The case doesn't hold the iPod anymore and it kept sliding. Though it's protective, the case gets lots of scratches and it makes the screen largely hard to read unless you're in a shaded area. One star out of 5.

Old review:

Pros: Great-looking design gets ***** out of 5. Sleek and spare, there's the added visual bonus of the screen "disappearing" when the screen light is off and reappearing when it's back on. Protects your IPod from scratches and minor bumps but I'm not sure how it'll stand to drops and major impacts.

Cons: Highly impractical esp. if you use your iPod mostly outdoors. Strangely enough, you CANNOT see the screen when you're in bright or direct sunlight outdoors (you can see a bit in the shade). The whole case protects the iPod (with a matte rubber half in the back and the only opening on the iPod dial) so you can just see the screen in artifical light, not natural. Even then it's darker than normal. Also it's a little prone to marks and tiny scratches. In a span of more than a month, it's already gotten lots of tiny marks and possibly permanent smudges (Fantastick and Windex won't work). Also sensitive to the natural oils you get on your hands so fingerprints are a common sight though seemingly temporary.

Average: Three (3) out of 5 stars. If you're highly averse to those clunky protective cases, or horribly designed skins like I am, the great, unique look balances out the absurd lack of practicality of the Griffin Reflect. It won't last long is my guess. There's a very slight, barely noticeable, loosening of the case which I sense once in a while.

Love it

I really liked the case. It gives a unique look to my blue nano. I don't get any scratches like the other reviews. I see where you can get scrathes from opening and closing the case with a coin. But that can be fixed by not opening the case, or just using your nails if they are sturdy enough and you can carefully open up the case.

The only bad thing about the case, is I get lots of scratches on it. And I think I'm pretty careful, but scratches all over the darn thing. But still looks great because it is mirrored. Bought the blue one at best buy too, but this one is soo much better looking. Go Chrome all the way.

Great!

The case is really cool.

Pros: Great protection on screen
Does unclip easily so it stays secure
Cons: Leave scracth marks on the side of the ipod
In bright sunlight, cannot see the screen even with back like on and the front becomes transpant

Reflect cases are durable polycarbonate shells that present a seamless, mirrored-chrome reflective face to the world until you wake up your player and the bright, clear screen shows through the chrome. The matte black rubberized case back visually complements the chrome and gives you a sure grip.
