Customer Rating:      Summary: Almost perfect! Comment: I really like this case. I didn't like the price I paid, but it wasn't full price, so I guess I did okay. I needed a case immediately, so I didn't have time to buy it online.
This case is great! It comes with two back pieces. Maybe the 80 GB iPod and the 160 are different sizes. I have the 160 GB version. This case snaps around it like a glove.
I took a star off because, as another reviewer said, the plastic cover over the click wheel renders it pretty much useless. I had to press so hard, and I ended up doing things I didn't want to do since I was pushing all kinds of buttons. This was easily remedied by removing the click wheel plastic.
The openings in the case allow you to charge it in the case, put in your headphones and access the hold button. No complaints there.
I would suggest cleaning your iPod before you put it in the case. The back is clear and you can see the chrome clearly--you know that means you can see all the smudges on it. I just got it recently, so I haven't had any problems with the plastic screen getting scratched up. I will say this, though: even though your iPod is in a case, that still doesn't mean you can just throw it into a bag or something. You need to treat it with care. I personally don't carry my iPod everywhere with me, only when I know I will be listening to music. And I am careful with it. These things cost too much to be tossing them around like a dishrag.
I recommend this case. It fits like a glove and it is attractive. The click wheel cover is no good, but you can remove it quite easily. It peels off. Save money and get it online! That would make a good deal even better.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good, sturdy case Comment: We use this case for our daughter to watch videos on the iPod. It is not bulky, yet still feels protective enough to withstand a drop or two. The click wheel still works fine with this case on - no extra pressure needed.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Sturdy but not sensitive Comment: My first impression of this case was "Wow it's so pretty and pink! I love hexagons!!"
I enjoyed the solidity of the plastic and how it shaped around my ipod.
I like the how the metal is shiny!
But upon testing it out, it disappoints me how the click wheel has grown insensitive because of the plastic covering.
The plastic over the screen has gotten very scratched up and it is hard to watch the videos clearly.
Because of these two things, this is why I give it a 3 out of 5.
Thankfully I did not spend as much money on this case because of ordering on Amazon.com than other places(coughapplecough)!
