Reviews for Uncommon Capsule Case for iPod touch (4th Gen.) - Butterfly Hearts by Tony Hong

I bought this case about five months ago and I love the pattern to pieces. It's so pretty and unique. The problem is that just today the button tab above the on/off button in the upper right corner broke off. The case is sitting on a weird angle, so once the button tab breaks off, it's almost impossible to press the on/off button. I've read in a couple other reviews that they purposely broke the tabs off just to get it to work, but for me it's very inconveniencing. I am very disappointed.

This particular iPod case was both useful and frustrating to me. It protected my iPod pretty well so that was very good in the safety prospect of it. I did get very frustrated with it a lot though. The volume button and the button on the top that turns you iPod off were both very difficult to press. Sometimes when I want to turn the iPod off, I got little marks on my finger from pressing so hard, and it STILL wouldn't have been turned off! This happens frequently. All I want to do is turn my iPod off, but I get so frustrated that I just want to chuck it at the wall (although I've never chucked it at the wall). If you just want your iPod to be safe, I DO recommend this iPod case. If you want to be satisfied and not irritated by your iPod case, DO NOT buy this case!!!!

the buttons for volume and power don't work at all! The case is extremely hard to get of (the back of my iPod now has scratches from getting it off.) The bottom has to be taken of to fit on my docking station, and I've had it for less than a year and the plastic at the bottom broke. please don't waste your money on it. It has a cool design, but it's not worth it's problems at all. Its poorly made and doesn't fit well at all with screen protectors. I really wish i hadn't bought this case.

I loved the design but had to take off the bottom piece because it would not fit on my ihome right, it also took a few tries to get the hold button pressed. But all in all it has protected my ipod great and i love it :)

Bought this case for my daughter, but we had to break out the button that covers the shut down/off button as it didn't work otherwise. It is extremely difficult to take it off the device, and I worry about damaging or dropping the device in doing so. Also, the apple headphones don't plug in to it when the case is on. I would not recommend this case considering the price and other options available. However, the design is cute.

I've had an uncommon case for a while now, you can also purchase them at Target stores and online, if you do not care for this particular design.
The price is the same.

Negatives: the cases cover the lock button and the volume up and down buttons, so the initial thought is "oh wow this does not fit" and "well this is annonying" it does take some time for the hard plastic to move a little better and realistically could be a serious design change in the future.
This is a minor inconvenience and just takes some time to get used to.

Positives:
First off you can get personalised designs at their website using your own photos, and the designs are pretty awesome.
"ooh I love your case" is a common remark I recieve when people first see the case, so like a cool T-shirt, its worth the buy.
More over it is durable, the winning factor about these cases is they're a harder plastic and protect the iPod even if it drops screen down, I have dropped my iPod on several occasions and that is with great handling caution for all of the "I would never!" people out there, myself included.

so in short (if you dont want to read the top):

Partially inconvenient but you get used to it, stylish, customizable designs with an "ooh" factor and most importantly protects your iPod.

and no I do not work for them :)

I got the butterfly case. I love it. It fits well. It looks and feels great. It covers the volume and off buttons but they work well by pressing on them. The case does not cover the front but I also purchased an anti glare screen cover which works well and my ipod is well protected. i would recommend this case or the others in the collection to anyone looking for a good looking and well functioning case. Thumbs up from me!!!

My father gave me a 4th generation Ipod. He also got me and my sister this case. One the butterfly one and the other the orange flower one. The butterfly does not fit on my white ipod. It does fit and my sisters black one. And her orange one fit on both of ours. I don't know if it the Ipod or the case. It is a awesome case and comes in two pieces to insure safely. Also It comes off for your IHome.
