Home > Consumer Reviews > Black Leather Case Cover for iPod Touch+LCD+Car Charger

The case fits nice and snug on my 2nd gen ipod touch, and I like the flip open style. The screen protector went on without a hitch, and with no bubbles. It would have been a nice combo IF the car charger actually worked. When I plug it in, a notice pops up on the screen that says charging is not compatible with this accessory.

These three items combined are well worth the modest price. My only complaint is minor. The material of the case prevents my car audio jack from fully engaging the speaker/headphone output port in the iPod Touch. To use the iPod in my car, then, I must remove it from the leather case. Not a show-stopper, just an annoyance.

Do not use the case for the 2G ipod touch. I have notice that I have to do a reboot to turn it on after the ipod is in the case for a few hours, and that the battery is less than 10% charged. A search of the internet seems to show that the 2G has a problem with magnetic cases where the magnets are on either side of the home button.
Also the battery charger does not charge the 2G. This was a worthless purchase.

The case has magnets in it. This somehow causes the itouch to constantly crash. Cheap, but not worth it.

The price is unbeatable, but you may have some problems. I haven't tried the charger or screen protector on my new iPod touch, but I did have the freezing/crashing problem noted by others. I took a utility knife and carefully cut out the magnets on either side of the home button (retaining the protective fabric on the inside of the case) and haven't had any problems since. Of course, the cover doesn't stay closed now, but when the case/iPod is in my pocket most of the time, it doesn't matter. I may put some Velcro dots on the bottom to keep the cover down, but I'm not sure I need them.

Again, for the price, it's a deal. Just be prepared to do a little tweaking.
