View Full Version : Got my Speck iPod Skin

My Speck iPod Skin arrived yesterday and here are my thoughts on it:
Seems like a great cover if you'll be throwing it in a bag and don't want to worry about ruining it. It fits well on my 10 GB iPod and everything lines up correctly. I got it in a pretty shade of blue. It feels very well protected and it's easy to charge since the bottom part flips up. Although it's recommended not to charge while the case is on, I have been doing that, and the iPod doesn't feel like it's getting hot, so I'm not too worried. After a day of use it's already a little dusty but the material seems like it should be very easy to wash. Also, it's a bit difficult to press down the buttons with the cover on--now I have to use my fingertips rather than the pads of my fingers.

However, my iPod is no longer as chic and sleek so I may end up taking the cover off. :P

It's a good thing you got the blue version, the white version quicky becomes an awful colour from just general use and oil from your skin. I hate mine.

I owned mine for about 5 minutes before I decided to return it. Way too "sticky" -- doesn't slide nicely into my pocket anymore -- though it makes it almost impossible to drop. And it really bulks up the iPod too. Not nearly as nice to hold.

I agree--it's definitely very bulky now. I have a hard time getting it in its place in my purse because of the rubber grip. BUT I have a tendency to drop things so maybe it would be best that I deal with those problems lol.
