 Belkin Leather Folio for iPod touch May 5, 2008
this is a great accessory for the iPod touch, it protects it from scratches, and also is very handy, and comfortable.
I definitively recommend this item.

When i received my product i was a bit dissapointed by the velcro opening.The product image is a bit deceiving and personaly,I thought the opening was a magnetic one.From my experience,velcro openings wear out fast and if I knew about it,I probably wouldn't have purchased this product.Gives the hole product a rather "cheap" look
Lots of compliments March 10, 2008
Very nice and trendy looking Folio! I've received lots of compliments and envy. The velcro closure is probably the worse feature. Perhaps a magnetic closure would have been better. The loud velcro isn't condusive for an office environment.
3.5 stars - Nice looking, not so nice functionality February 10, 2008

I have been using this case for my ipod for a couple weeks now, and I have mixed thoughts on it. A lot of other reviewers have hit the major points with the case, both the pros and the cons.
The biggest thing that this case has going for it is the look. The leather look is very nice, and Belkin knows style, at least with this folio. The folio also is fairly well constructed, though not perfect. But for for 15-20 dollars, one can't really complain about slightly imperfect construction. The imperfections include things such as loose threads, and a crooked logo on the inside. You'd think these wouldn't be too hard to get right, but when pumping out in mass quantities, you're getting what you pay for.
The negative parts of this case: primarily its functionality. The first and foremost thing, as anyone who glances at this case can attest to, is that there is no music control when the case is closed. But you know what you are buying when you get this case, and someone who buys this folio shouldn't expect control when it's closed. This has been hinted at my another reviewer who stated it is near impossible to use this case while driving, which is true. The second fault is the velcro enclosure. Be aware when buying this case that it may actually come with a velcro strap on it (mine did) that hooks to the back of the case. This strap is annoying, and a lot of the time doesn't like to stick. A few other design issues - there is no hole for the ambient light sensor, making the auto brightness unusable. The last thing is that the strap on the bottom of the case is a bit too wide, sometimes covering the headphone port. Not a big deal, just nudge it out of the way, but a minor inconvenience.
The case comes with a screen protector that is nice and glossy, but not smudge free, and has to be cleaned fairly regularly.
Overall, buy it for the look, and not for the functionality. There are more functional cases, but if you're worried about the look of your touch, or if you're going to be throwing your ipod in a bag and not actively changing tracks while listening, this should be a good case for you.
It looks and feels great February 9, 2008
