VAKAADOO, LTD Unit F, 9 Birdhurst Rise South Croydon London CR2 7EG United Kingdom Tel: 0845 895 1002 $25 USD, $29 CND, £12.69 GBP, €18.59 Euro Requirements: 2nd Generation iPod nano Strengths: You can dock it in the case, the material is strong, screen protector, good looking, lightweight. Weaknesses: None found. Introduction When I look at any iPod case, I want one that is durable. That is one thing that turns me away from gel cases. This is one case which is, in my opinion, in between a gel case and a hard case. It provides the protection of a hard case and the style and colour of a gel case. Getting Started One of the phrases the
company uses to promote the case is that it’s the “Invisible iPod Case”. This
does not mean that it is clear, it means that the case blends in with the iPod
to make it look like there isn’t a case at all. I think it has achieved this
goal except of lines on both sides of the iPod but that can’t be helped. The
package included the iPod case, a little rope and a piece of plastic that lets
you wrap your headphones around it. This thing is really simple but cool. It
lets you adjust the length of the cable so it’s just right and your headphones
don’t get tangled.
Using the Hardware Putting the iPod in the case couldn’t be easier either. Just put the iPod in and snap the two sides together. It is as easy as that and it has a strong seal. If you don’t know how to get it open, they have a diagram on the side of the packaging. Another great feature is that you can use a regular Apple dock with it while it’s in the case. I’ve had a problem before when I had to take the iPod out of the case in order to dock it. The screen protector does a great job resisting scratches. It is the same with the case. After using it for a while, you could still say the case was brand new, no signs of damage or scratches. Even under the case it’s clean. With some cases, dust and other particles can get up cracks in the case, but nothing got into this case. The rubber-like material makes it easy to hold and does an awesome job of protecting the iPod. If you aren’t sure they have the right colour for you, don’t worry. They have a colour for every iPod Nano 2G, including the limited edition red Nano. Conclusion I have enjoyed this case a lot. I can’t think of a thing that could be bad about this product. A strong iPod case that is stylish and functional should be enough to satisfy any iPod user’s needs. Awesome job, Vakaadoo! Don’t change a thing! Recommendation I would recommend this case to anyone with an iPod Nano 2G. Even if you have a case already I recommend you check this one out. You will like it. |
