Hard to remove without damage [Posted on 2008-02-26]
Looks and works great when on, and fits my 80 gig ipod classic perfectly. However, the first time I tried to remove it from the ipod I caused damage. Using the method that's printed on the back of the box (insert coin in corner and twist) just bends and cracks the plastic at the corner. To get the case off I needed to pry it very carefully with a screwdriver, and was successful to the point that I didn't scratch my ipod. The iclear seems like a nice product, but this is a major flaw and its not going back on my ipod. The plastic in the particular batch that mine came from might be suspect, and other units may fare better.
It does protect the iPod, BUT... [Posted on 2008-03-04]
I recently purchased this iPod case because it does not cover the control wheel (as many other cases do). Within 3 days of receiving it, the iClear case was damaged. I was walking around my kitchen (which has a linoleum floor) when my earphone cord got caught on a cabinet doorknob, pulling the iPod out of my pants pocket and causing it to fall to the floor. The iPod was unharmed from the fall (about 3 feet), but the iClear case immediately cracked and a piece broke off.
I contacted Griffin to see if their warranty covered this--it does not. They themselves claim the case is supposed to protect the iPod from scratches and scuffing. (Of course they only make that claim over the phone!). I understand that they can't guarantee the case will withstand being dropped, but you should have seen it. 3 feet from my pocket to the kitchen floor, and the iClear snapped like a breakaway vase used in a movie.
So if you want protection from scratches, and you're SURE you'll never drop your iPod, then this case should do fine. If, however, you find yourself walking, bending over, turning around (perhaps with some speed) while using your iPod, you may want to look elsewhere for a stronger case.
Highly recommend............... [Posted on 2008-04-24]
just got mine today and i love it. it fits my 80gb ipod nicely. the back of the case is opaque but still clear that you can see the apple logo. watching a movie is nice and clear. highly recommend getting this case or any other case because ipod's have a high tendency of getting scratched especially in the back.
good product, a little heavy [Posted on 2008-04-27]
a nice, tight fit for my 80gb ipod. it's a little heavy, but offers good protection.
