OtterBox iPod Touch (5th Gen/6th Gen/7th /Gen) Defender Series Case - Coal, Rugged & Durable, with Port Protection, Includes Holster Clip Kickstand

Although I love my iPod Touch, I am not much of a fan of the super thin trend as I find it hard to hold onto the thinner phones (and this Touch). After dropping the Touch half a dozen times, I thought that a case would be a good way to both protect the Touch and make it easier to hold. Since I like the Otterbox on my Note 5 so much, I thought I'd try it for the Touch. This is another great product.On the plus side, the dual case system is really, really solid, with great fit and finish, and superb attention to detail. All of the cutouts are positioned exactly right, the buttons are just a tiny bit harder to push (which is a plus as it prevents accidental presses). I also liked the screen protector built into the inner half of the case system. It provides decent protection from scratches, and still provides good touch and feel with the screen. Most importantly for me, this makes the iPod much easier to hold, with a nice, slightly rubbery feel. I haven't dropped the iPod once wince I got it, but I know it will provide great protection if I do drop it again.The only real negative I can find with the case is that it seems to allow a bit more dust between the screen protector and the Touch screen, although it isn't horrible.. I'd buy Otterbox for any device I own, and on balance, I think this was the perfect case for my iPod Touch.

This is my second otterbox they are well built and for perfectly. My touch is now shielded from any harm should I drop it. Nice rubber, easy to grip.

I have tried other, cheaper products and I can say with certainty, it is worth spending more money to get a quality case. I put a glass screen protect on my ipod before i put it in this case. The case has a thin plastic screen cover, but i am more on the cautious side and would rather replace the glass screen protector than the actual ipod screen. It works well with the glass protector on it. I have no issues. I hope that i do not drop my ipod touch (6th gen) but if i do, I feel that by having it in this case I have given it all the protection I can. I am sure the case is NOT waterproof. Don't drop it in the pool or hot tub! But, other than that, I am very happy with my purchase.

I was going to order this case from eBay, but then I started reading about all the fake cases being sold by people from China. When I went to eBay, they even have people selling colors of this case that the company doesn't offer on its website. That's a big enough reason to buy the case at Amazon.The case is well constructed, but the instructions won't help you. It's better to go to YouTube and follow the video that shows how to put your iPod Touch (5G) into the case. The video is easy to follow and far better than the instructions that come with the unit.Everything lines up well and the unit is well-constructed.However, there are two small problems. First, the covers for the lightning charger port and the earphone port seem like they will break off after you bend them to open and close them during the course of a few months.Second, the screen cover has a minor design flaw. When you put your iPod Touch into the case and then seal the case shut, there are these small rainbows that develop where the screen cover semi-adheres to the touchscreen. This is not a problem with the screen having oil from fingerprints or anything else on it because I was very careful not to touch the screen when I transferred the unit from its Apple packaging into the OtterBox case. Other reviewers have also commented about this problem. As long as you are looking directly at the screen, it's not a problem. But if you look at the screen from a slightly off-center position, then the rainbows become noticeable and annoying.One thing I wish is that OtterBox offered this model without the screen protector. Yes, that makes it a little more susceptible to water damage, but you'll find that there is a little bit of a lag in the touchscreen sensitivity when you have to touch the OtterBox's screen protector.One really nice thing about this case is that it comes with a lanyard. It's pretty useful to have it, especially if you are buying it for a little kid or someone who is a bit clumsy.

The otterbox is regarded as the best case you can get for your iPod or iPhone (maybe the LifeProof case can beat it ,but I haven't tried it). The otter box is a 2 case. The first case lets you protect it if it hits the ground or any rough surface. It is good because it would damage your iDevice in any way. The otter box's second case is a nice leathery kind of case. It wraps around the iDevice and protects it from dirt and such. It has a nice screen protecter built in ,so it keeps the iDevice looking fresh. The otter box is stylish and I use it everywhere I go. It's kind of heavy though. I like it because I know if it's in my pocket or not. This is good for me because it lets me know if I lost my iPod. The otterbox is a great case ,but the price is steep for a case. If you can find it for the $25 - $35 range this case is a steal.

This iPod case is great as are most of the OtterBox cases. This is a beefy case and fits my iPod Touch perfectly. The one thing I didn't like about it is the built in screen protector. It is flimsy and loose (doesn't lay flush). It is held onto the case with glue around the edge, so I just pulled it off and put on an Omoton Glass Screen Protector on my iPod.
