Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of DLO Jam Jacket Case with Cord Management and Surface Shields for iPod touch 1G (Black)
Customer Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
While it was a little difficult at first to get the screen protector on without any air bubbles underneath, the case has been great. I'm clumsy and this thing adds enough protection around the areas that would hit the floor that I feel pretty good carrying this thing around.
One thing to note though, while I haven't upgraded to better earphones than the ones that came with the Touch, I plan to in the future, which will most likely make the attached earphone organizer on the back a moot addition...but in the meantime, while I'm using the earphones that came with the Touch, it makes things a 100-times better...I used to just wrap the cord around the Touch before and without fail every time the cord with tangle and I'd spend 3 minutes trying to untangle the dang wire...so, it's a great feature if you plan on always using the earphones that came with the Touch.
Overall, I think it's great and kind of sharp looking for a piece of silicone or whatever it's made out of.
Customer Review: Excellent protection for an excellent price
Summary: 5 Stars
I spent a good amount of time reading reviews of similar products and in the end chose the DLO Jam Jacket for its cord management and price. This product did not disappoint. The silicon is high quality, soft, and durable, with a textured grip so there is no chance of your iPod slipping out of your hand. It fits the iPod touch 1G like a glove and is easy to put on and remove in a flash. Some reviewers have recommended the Speck Toughskin as a better case for protection but I would be surprised if the padded corners of the Jam Jacket would not be sufficient protection. The opening for the ambient light sensor IS in the correct location on this case as described. Some other cases I have seen have the opening in the center of the case directly above the screen despite the light sensor being slightly to the left. I have had the case for 2 weeks and it still looks brand new. No stretching and no splitting anywhere. I highly recommend this product!Customer Review: Great Case For Ipod Touch: A Few Flaws.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great case for my IPOD Touch and I'm enjoying it quite immensely. First, it looks great! Second, it provides ample amounts of protection and even comes with a very nice screen protector, which is absolutely essential for your Touch. I'll use it and enjoy it.
What are the downsides? First, the form factor may not allow you to slide it into your car mount or holder. The case has a device mounted on the back for you to wind your earbuds around so they don't become tangled. Works great, but may get in the way if you want to use a car mount. Also, the device works great to wind your earbud cable and has cutouts to store the earbuds themselves. Unfortunately, the cutouts are the size of the Apple provided earbuds and do not work with my Sennheisers. Nevertheless, it nice to have something to neatly wind the cable around, so it's not a showstopper for me!
Customer Review: Best thing since the wheel
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best invention since the wheel. Well, for those who cannot stand trailing cords. I only use one side of the earphones while driving (permitted where I live), and so many times I have stepped out of my car and stepped on my earphones, or found them dragging in water. Now, I wrap and go with confidence.
I was worried about the shield picking up dust; no problem there, it cleans easily.
The downside is that it ate my earbuds (I do not use the earphones which came with my iPod). The "pocket" which houses the buds is so tight that when I tried to extract the buds, the cord came up and left the bud! I was sorry because they were good quality buds. But, I hate dangling cords, so I quietly replaced the earbuds and worked my way around that little challenge.
I will have this product until they come up with wireless earphones for the iPod Touch.
Customer Review: A "Jamming" Jacket
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently bought this cover for my iPod Touch and I love it! The rubber is nice and thick, so I feel like my player is really protected. The earbud holder on the back is extremely convenient and holds everything nice and tight. The extra rubber on the back makes it slightly bulky--if you're looking for a slimline cover this isn't it.
The only thing I'd like to see differently with this is the plastic adhesive shield for the screen. The cover only comes with one, and I had trouble adhering mine on the first try. I would highly recommend buying an extra package of screen covers ($3-$7, depending on what you choose to get) in case the first one doesn't go on quite right. Also slightly irritating is having to remove my iPod from the Jam Jacket to put it in my armband while working out.
All in all, I love this cover. Given the opportunity, I'd buy it again.
