I've been looking for a nice carrying case for my iPod mini since I got it a year ago. I didn't want to shell out an insane amount of money for the Burberry or Juicy Couture case (well, I wanted to, but I just couldn't justify spending that much). The Belkin case was the first case for the mini I'd seen that was affordable and wasn't ugly, so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm very happy with it. The case is made of baby pink leather, which looks smashing with my pink mini. There is a single snap on the outer cover, and the iPod mini fits snugly and securely inside. There is a clear plastic window to protect the screen of your iPod, and constant access to the clickwheel at all times. This case also comes with a wrist lanyard and an inner pocket that is the ideal size for storing a credit card or drivers' license. What I like most about this case is that it also gives you access to the ports and hold switch located at the top and bottom of the iPod, so you can access all the features of your iPod without having to remove it from the case. I am very pleased with this purchase, especially because of the low price.

There's no need to wrap the headphones around the ipod.. just roll the cord up, tuck it into the pocket inside of the flap, and slide the ends of the earbuds under the middle strap on the very top of the ipod. The leather stretches so you can close the case completely!! Looks so much cuter this way!! (instead of having to wrap the cord around the outside). Also, I was able to stuff the entire headphones into the pocket (earbuds and everything) and still close the case.. you just need to be creative with how you stuff them in there. So, this case meets all of your needs!!! I DEFINITELY recommend it.. it's the BEST CASE ever (and it's the cutest baby color pink too!) =)

I bought this at the Apple store because it was so cute. I love the baby pink color and my pink iPod looks adorable in it. It seems to be made really well. The only thing I do not love about it is when you open it the iPod wants to slip out. I am worried about dropping it on the floor and breaking it. I do like the fact it has cut outs so you can still listen to your iPod and charge it without taking it out of its case. This thing is great.

It's very cute, and it holds the ipod well. However, it doesn't have anywhere to put a belt clip, and there isn't a place to store the earbuds.

I bought this for my girlfriend's ipod mini. She loves it and it protects her ipod well. You can still put attachments like the itrip on the top and also beable to plug power into the bottom. It also disguises the ipod pretty casually.

Love the look of this case. It's pinker than it looks in the picture, which isn't a bad thing for me! I'm a stay-at-mom of two and trust me, cute and trendy accessories are the last thing on my mind these days. I'd been looking for a case for my rarely used pink iPod, and this one did it for me. I agree that the lack of earbud storage stinks, but that's pretty much status quo for most of the cases I looked at. They seem to be made more for protection and belt attachment while LISTENING to music, vs. basic storage when the iPod is not in use.
Bummer...but I still love this case!

I brought this to protect my ipod from scratches. I love the color.The leather is a soft pink and the inside is grey.Also
you still have acess to your screen and dial.It has a magnetic
closer.It's also light and can fit in your pocket.It also comes
with a grey wrist strap.

I am extremely happy with this case. The ipod fits into the case and stays there securely. It also has a strap around the front to stop it from moving around. It has plastic that protects the screen of your ipod and prevents scratches.

A huge plus that comes with this case is that you can get a hold off all connection areas without taking off the case. I can charge it and use my itrip without ever taking it off. That makes it a lot better than any of the other cases i've tried because i don't have to hassle with getting it on and off.

I absolutly love this, and I am extremely happy with it. It is well worth the low cost of $15.

I looked online at many a case before making my decision. The price on Amazon was insanely cheaper than the apple store. I use the iTrip transmitter in my car, and was looking for a case that would allow me to plug into the top of my mini. The description given by the manufacturer says that it is "top loading". I took this as a description of the top being open, thus complete access to the top for the iTrip. The loading is not top, but from the side (there is a strip of leather that crosses over the top).

I still have and use it. It is girly pink (which is fun) and has protected my pod. I do wish there was complete top access.

I debated over the silver or colored iPod mini. I thought the trendy colors might get old. I went with the silver, but then felt let down because it looked so utilitarian and "generic electronic." This case allowed me to still have some fun with my mini. The earbud trick mentioned in a previous review works great too!
