Review on Audio Outdoor Case IPod Clear by Elizabeth Nelson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Heavy duty protection suitable for MP3 and MP4 players Accessory

I used this case to protect my Nano from bumps and accidental water while snowboarding for two years. I have some issues with the control lock button depending on how I wear my nano. In my pocket, I can accidentally activate the control buttons. When I use control lock, playback pauses if the headphone jack fails - then I have to open the box to disable control lock before I can resume playback. However, I had a few hard hits - one of which broke the case I carry my digital camera in and the strap loop on the digital camera itself - the iPod was carried on the left and the digital camera on the right in the same place. There was no damage to the nano case other than the rubber plug for the headphone jack was torn off (do not use with headphones plugged in anyway). My other option is to carry it in my backpack, where I have fewer accidental button presses and headphone jack pulls, but still have more recovery time. I hope Apple gets rid of the ejection pause.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Very expensive
