Hey everyone,
I recently ordered the iPod Touch 4g, and I'm trying to figure out what case I want to get. At the moment, I know cases are very hard to come by for it since it's not even shipping yet. I know I would like to get a screen protector on the front, but I'm not sure about the back yet. Basically I'm wondering what the best kind of case is to protect my iPod from falls, scratches, etc, but still keep it's shape thin.

Here's one case a found: http://www.sourcingmap.com/black-si...gle&utm_medium=froogle&utm_campaign=usfroogle

Thanks :)
 
So far, the best protector is those 99cents cheap silicone case on eBay until something better (Speck, Griffin, Belkin) comes out. Have to protect it somehow, right?
 
Hi guys,
I'm planning to buy a skin for ipod touch 4(whenever I get it).I've had a 1st gen touch for 2 years and I know how it scratches,specially the back.I'm considering 4 diff. manufacturers. Gadgetshieldz,bestskinsever,bodyguardz & zagg.
I don't mind how complicated the process is,I'll manage putting it on..
I have following 2 major consideration:
1.It should be absolutely clear and invisible.I don't want to mess around with all these pixels I'm paying for...
2.I really love these glass displays in all of apple multitouch devices.Hence the skin should give least of that rubber like feel and more like original.
I would seriously appreciate comments from people who have used either all or most of them...
I'm considering 1 more option.If I put the skin only on the back and go for a pouch smthng like zagg ultraslim..Will that be a good option?Can all these pouches really be sufficient to protect the screen?
 
I am waiting for a Switcheasy Rebel, or anyother Switcheasy case for that matter.
 
I store my PDAs in my purse -- and that is where my ipod Touch will go as well. So I need screen protection of some sort. Any suggestions?

There's nothing specific yet for the 4th gen touch, but my wife uses this Belkin case...

She used to use it for her 2nd gen. The 4th gen fits a little looser in it, but it does the job so you can throw it in your purse/bag protected without worry. The velcro closure is great and makes sure you're screen is free from harm.

Definitely worth the $15 I'd say.

That one seems very good for $1. :) Not gonna waste over $20 on cases yet. :mad: What colour did you get? Do you have pics?

It has not come yet. But I got black. Will post pics when it comes.. but that could be more than a week.
