Apple Leather Case for iPod classic (160GB) / iPod (60GB and 80GB)

Horrible Quality

Written by BR from Tyler

5-Aug-2008

This case is falsely advertised. The case seems to be stitched at the seams, at least you would expect this level of quality from a $100 "hand crafted" product. In fact it is glued together and over time this glue will distress and come apart leaving you with $100 worth of nothing. Buy any other case than this. Im dissappointed more so because this is a true Apple product. The only reason I ever paid $100 for this was because I always could trust Apple products to be of the highest quality. This case has failed on me twice now.

Depends what your looking for!

I bought about 26 different cases.
Personally I don't care for this very much.
I care about the style and being able to look at the screen and pad.
I really like these things called Apple Ipod socks. I like them because they give you 6 different colors and they match my outfit, buy you can't see the pad and screen. It kind of annoys me.
This leather case to me isn't my style. Mine doesn't make me happy. If you don't care about seeing the pad and the screen and you only care about the protection and not the color. Then maybe this is a very nice case for you but if you do care about the color, pad, and screen than you should't buy it.

It uses some sort of cheep glue

For the amount of money I payed for this it was not worth it. well kind of. It looks great, it keeps the Ipod almost scratch free, and it's classy. however, I left it in the car and the it fell apart. It's not stitched together as it appears its all glued together with some cheep past. this is the second one I've gone threw, the first one the apple sore was kind enough to replace but the second time I went the apple lady made fun of me because I spent so much on an iPod case.

fits perfect to 160GB; you need to pull ipod out every time you want to access controls, but that does not disturb me; on the contrary, enjoy the gadget every time I pull it out; have >10 cases: this is THE one.

DO NOT PURCHASE THIS APPLE PRODUCT!!

Written by JG from Branson

I bought this case just over a year ago. And to my disappointment, it is literally falling apart. I expected more from Apple, their products and the description that Apple gives for this product. Its described to be "Hand Crafted" and made from fine Italian Leather. When in actuality, It is poorly constructed, and is glorified JUNK. The seam running along the outside of the case is separating. This is due to only being held together by glue. I not only expected more from Apple, but also in the craftsmanship and quality of their products. Especially when they are so confident in this product that they are asking $100.00 for it!! It is far from worth this much. After exceeding the one year warranty that apple offers for this item, they do not stand by their product. Even after it being defective. In conclusion it is not only a poor product from Apple but Apple did nothing for my compensation or reimbursement. I would not recommend this product to anyone. I am a very disappointed with Apple, their product, and most importantly their poor customer service.

Great for 60 & 80GB Video BUT not a good fit for 160GB!

Best case out there. But apple needs to come out with a thinner leather case for the classic 160 GB, because it slips out rather easily.

Excellent Case but....

Written by ML from Auckland

...it fits the iPod 80GB perfectly (4.1 x 2.4 x 0.55 inches), but being that the 160GB Classic is slightly thinner (4.1 x 2.4 x 0.53) it slips out all the time which, needless to say, is very, very, very annoying.

Another first class accessory from Apple.

The case is sharp looking and does a great job protecting my new iPod. My only concern is how easily the iPod slides out.
The price is reasonable considering the quality.

Could it be better?

You will NEVER NEVER NEVER find a better case!!! I bought one with my first iPod, loved it. It was destroyed by a friends cigarette however, so, I bought another. I have owned many cases, so far, this is the BEST!!! Now, let's hope they release one for the iPhone and the iPod Touch.

This case is very simple and does a great job protecting my iPod. The ribbon to pull the iPod out is very cleaver. While you cannot control the iPod through the case, it works for my needs.

I finally bought our first iPod after all these years... I'm now a convert and this case just adds to the allure of Apple. It fits and protects our iPod video PERFECTLY!! If you're into a minimalist, elegant and simple look - it's worth every penny.. go get it!!

Here's the skinny:

Written by JB from West Chester

6-Feb-2007

The aesthetics and design of this case are absolutely perfect. It's low profile, so it doesn't add much mass to the iPod when it's in transport. I like the fact that you have to remove the iPod to use it. I just got the 80GB to replace my old 20GB HP, which I kept in a leather case that I didn't have to remove it from. The fact is, the looks of the iPod itself are not matched by any case on the market. I also like the fact that there is not belt clip - personal electronics on belt clips are the new fanny pack.

That said, the fact that it has to be removed from the case left me wanting to protect the iPod from scratches, so I applied an invisible shield/skin to it. I hate scratches when removed, and my old iPod got scratched even while in its case full-time. The invisible shield made the new iPod VERY difficult to remove from this case, but it became easier after a short breaking-in period. Sadly though during that time, the skin that I applied to the iPod became stained by the case on the vertical edges of the face of the iPod. My iPod is white, so the brown stains really stood out. Needless to say, that is unacceptable for me.

I think this case is great, it just doesn't work for me. I value more the superior scratch prevention afforded by the invisible skin, and in a choice between one or the other, I guess I will not be using my leather case. It's unfortunate because I like it and I like the additional protection it would've provided when carrying it in a backpack or something like that.

If you don't plan on using an invisible skin, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this case. OR... if you have the black iPod, you may be able to get away with using both, since the stains would probably not be visible to the naked eye.

Like others have complained this case is too expensive. But it is pretty sweet, I was lucky enough to pick one up that had been opened and returned so I got it for about half the price. Wouldn't have got it oherwise. It is well made but the one I got doesn't quite fit over the top end of my iPod, perhaps the reason why this particular case was returned. Anyways it is good and I like it, fine leather lux. and nifty slim fit with a nice way of getting the iPod out.
