The Belkin Remix Metal for iPod nano offers: Full protection for your iPod in a clear case with brushed metal detail. Accessibility to all ports and controls. A slim profile for portability.

Brushed-metal details add to a great look. View larger.

The Remix Metal for iPod nano by Belkin is a hard case made of clear acrylic with black-toned brushed-metal detail that maintains the good looks of the iPod nano while providing maximum protection against scratches and scuffs. A snug fit means the iPod won't jostle when inside the case and with a very slim profile, it won't take up too much room in your pocket or purse.

The clear acrylic atop the screen keeps it fully visible for menu navigation and photo and video viewing. With the revolutionary true-sense click-wheel protection, you still retain full control of the click-wheel and navigating the iPod's menus is a breeze.

All ports and the dock connector are fully accessible so you never have to take the iPod out of the case. If you do need to take out the iPod, however, it's a cinch as the case easily pops open in an instant. The Belkin Remix Metal for iPod nano is backed by Belkin's Lifetime Warranty.

Product Description

Slip your iPod right into your pocket without the added bulk, and protect it from everyday scratches and scuffs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sleek-looking case that serves its purpose, December 27, 2007

Looks & Size: The case looks as good outside the box as it does inside the box. I have the silver remix, and my blue iPod nano looks great with it. The case is silver in the front but you can still see the color of the wheel and the color of the iPod nano through the wheel, and the case is entirely clear in the back, revealing the silver back of the nano. I couldn't have asked for a better looking case. Also, it does bulk up the nano a little bit, but considering how thin the nano is to begin with, this actually makes for better handling.

Operation: You can charge the iPod/transfer files while it's in the case, and the headphone jack goes in completely with no problem. There is a protector for the click wheel, but I sense no loss in wheel sensitivity. The case also has a screen protector.

I'm still getting the hang of opening the case. I felt like I was breaking the case the first few times, but it's an easy snap-on/off of the front panel from the back. You could easily use the nano for commuting, travel, etc. without ever removing it from the case, which leads me to...

I plan on using my iPod nano for exercise, so the biggest disappointment is the lack of an armband, but I was fully aware of that when I bought the case. However, I also commute/travel a lot so I needed a sturdy case (and this is perfect for that). I plan on supplementing this case with a good armband case; I am a bit worried about the constant removal from this Belkin case because of the snap-on/snap-off but the case seems okay so far. There is also no belt clip provided with this case if you are looking for that.

Overall, this is a great case and I highly recommend it for everyday use.

5.0 out of 5 stars this case looks and fits great, December 29, 2007

I'm really happy with this case - the iPod nano fits snugly into the case, and, the scroll wheel works very well through the thin plastic membrane. Convenient access to the data and audio ports on the bottom. This feels like a "caseless" case, because the case looks and feels like it's part of the shell of the iPod nano.

4.0 out of 5 stars It does protect - but it shows some ugly marring after 6 months, July 8, 2008

This case does what it's intended to do - prevent my Nano from getting all dinged up in my pocket, at work, in the car. It's face plate looks like heck now and I don't think I've ever dropped it. It's a fairly cheap plastic case. It hasn't broken or chipped, but in 6 months, my nano looks a bit ugly. Functionally speaking it's a 5-star item for the price. Aesthetically, 3-stars. So I'll give it a 4. Worthwhile purchase if you care how your portable electronics hold up.
