Switcheasy Sw-class-ub Ipod Classic 80gb Review
I've tried several cases for my 6.5G iPod Classic 160GB (2009), and this is one is one of the nicest. (Others: Incase Hard Case iPod Classic , which is a sort of rubberized wraparound that mates with a hard, clear front piece, and the Incase Snap Case for iPod Classic (both these links may be incorrect for the 2009 iPod Classics), which is a thin shield (clear in front, frosted in back).)
This has a de luxe appearance, shiny Lexan and very snug sliding fit. The Click Wheel port has a beveled edge which sort of guides your finger into the aperture -- nice touch. The openings for hold button, headphones, and dock adapter are just as nice. (The hold button opening also has this beveled edge, which makes it much easier to access than the InCase Hard Case, which makes me use my fingernail.) The sleek, shiny surface makes the normally matted iPod look like a jewel ... and the smoked color does a good job of obscuring the screen when it's dark (so I can't see the clock or battery indicator when the backlight is off). As another reviewer pointed out, the smoke color obscures the screen a little, but I believe iPods ship with the display at 50%. I had turned mind down to 35%, so turning it UP to 75% makes it quite visible. (I haven't tried in broad daylight yet.)
The case comes with two each of a Click Wheel and screen protectors, and a case back protector which I promptly removed -- it didn't cover the whole back, and a hair that got trapped underneath during installation ruined the look. If you're keeping your iPod in cases 99% of the time, who needs a back protector...? (Please, don't answer. I know how OCD some of you are.) A small microfiber cloth for pre-cleaning of the surfaces is included. You might want to moisten it with some sunglass cleaning fluid.
The kit also includes a docking port cover, a headphone adapter pigtail ... just about everything you'd need. (No lanyard or lanyard attachment. No belt clip or belt clip attachment.)
Truly the nicest extra they include is an Universal Dock adapter that fits this case (and the InCase Snap Case, too, I'd wager). Considering a SendStation Dock Extender costs you the same or more than this case, and both enable use of a dock while the iPod is still in a case, this case + dock adapter is truly a bargain.
Addendum:
I made the mistake of removing and discarding the rear shield as it didn't extend fully over the stainless back. DON'T. The sliding rear cover fits So closely that it can gently scuff the iPod's pretty shiny back (which I'm sure Apple designed to reinforce it as a "treasure" to be protected by third party products). Trust me, center the shield on the back, smooth out any bubbles, and leave it on before putting on the case. ;)
