Review on Speck TechStyle Pinstripe Shell Touch by Hector Smith

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Well made case but not what I expected.

This case is well made and looks durable but does not match the photo posted here. The top half of the case does not cover the home button or the space above the screen as shown in the image. The front of the iPod is not well protected. It's also extremely bulky, nearly doubling the iPod's thickness, which just doesn't seem necessary. It's so thick it doesn't fit in my docking station. It also only comes with a screen protector, which I ruined because it was so difficult to apply and remove air bubbles. For the price of this case, there should be more than one. Also, the kickstand on the back of the case is handy when the case is in landscape (sideways) orientation, but when it's in the correct position (which it is most of the time) the kickstand doesn't work. The stand also causes the iPod not to lay flat when placed on a flat surface. Overall I don't think this case is worth the money, it doesn't protect it well, makes it bulky, the kickstand only works one way, and it needs more and easier to apply screen protectors.

Pros
  • Fabric coated hard case offers great protection and is soft to the touch
Cons
  • Something different
