Very pleased with this case, it fits my Zune 80 well. It has a screen protector, but it doesn't obscure the photos. The top has a cut out for the ear plugs, and the bottom is cut out, as well. It has a magnetic catch so the flap closes nicely when not in use. The buttons on the front of the Zune are totally accessible and useable while the zune is in the case. I wouldn't hesitate buying another Incipio case. Good price. Incipio seems to offer a good selection of cases for the 80, good fit. Please note: there is a slight smell to the case, I am airing it out right now. I don't think it'll be a lasting problem, and I don't find it a deterent to buying the case. The smell is slight not overwhelming, at least not on mine. A picture is worth a 1000 words. So please see my customer images along with the product photos. None of the pictures I saw online showed the top of the case. I wanted to see what kind of cut outs it had. So, now that I have one, I've included a TOP shot for anyone who wants to know, too (before purchasing).

This Incipio case provides good quality protection for the Zune 80gb. It is worth buying for. Nice quality leather. The plastic shield it comes with might look dirty, but it doesn't mess up the picture quality. It won't get any scratches, trust me. The belt clip is removable, for those wondering. Overall, good product. Recommended.

(A word of caution: if you are ordering this product directly from Incipio Technologies, it might take a while to arrive at its destination. Mine took about 3 weeks to get here.)

This is one of the least expensive cases available for the Zune 80 (as of this writing). After a drought of cases, where all that was available was Microsoft's overpriced offering, this Incipio case came as a breath of fresh air.

Well, almost fresh air. I have to say that while leather generally smells like leather, this particular case was quite over powering. When I opened the box up I recall wondering "woah! what died in here!?" It's that bad.

The nice thing is that the stench has now all but left and I have a case that protects my Zune 80, has a belt clip and works well.

The bottom of the case is open to allow for Zune charging or the use of accessories. The headphone jack has a slot as well. If all you are doing is listening to music you can literally open the flap, start the music, close it and forget it.

As far as the clear plastic on the front, it isn't exactly clear. I guess somewhere along the manufacturing line the plastic came into contact with the leather on the back of the case and now it seems I have a permanent spot on the plastic that is rough and stained. If you're buying for video viewing, be aware that this may not be the best choice for near unobstructed viewing. I use my Zune for music only so it's not an issue for me. Your mileage will vary.

A basic Zune case that has more of a 'pleather' than a leather feel (a minor point), but is very well constructed, looks great and compliments the slim-line look and feel of the 120GB Zune. Has a subtle unintrusive belt clip and a cutout on the upper right corner for the head phone/ear bud jack that allows the case cover to be opened/closed without having to remove the jack. Nice design and a reasonable price.

This case holds my 120gb Zune perfectly. Just took 4 days till I got mine. I love how it is magnetic. Just great to have if you take your zune everywhere. I even like how the shape of the case is. It has every opening for everything. The ear plug the USB connection.

I mulled over getting this or the microsoft case before buying, both are overpriced imho, but this one works well for a more reasonable price.
Spending $30 for an "official Zune case" is ridiculous, even though I prefer the way that one looks.
The incipio case fits well, is made of quality leather, has a decent screen protector, and allows access to the bottom port and headphone jack without opening or removing the case.
I don't really use the belt clip, but it's a good one and is removable.
All in all, I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality case for their Zune. I have the 80g BTW.

This case is really good. I did some shopping around before I settled with this one. I bought this at the same time I bought my 120 GB Zune, as I wanted it protected from day one. My son has a Zune also and his case is a silicone sleeve, which I don't really like because it doesn't fit that well and you have to remove the zune from the sleeve if you plug it into a dock, which is kind of hard to do. The Incipio case holds and protects the Zune very well and the flip top is nice because you can fold it all the way over or when you want to close it, it has magnets that hold it closed. So far, I haven't seen any problems with the magnets and the Zune's hard drive. I've seen magnets render all information on a hard drive useless before and these do not bother the Zune for some reason.

This case sells for about $17 on Amazon, which I think is an outstanding value for something that protects your expensive investment! The next comparable case to this one is a $75 italian leather case...in my opinion, this one looks just as good.

Lastly, the Zune is held securely with this case, yet, when you need to take it out, say to put in a docking station, it comes out really easy. All ports are accessible with the case on and I can't think of anything I don't like about it!

I recently purchased the Incipio Z-137 Leather Case for my 80GB Zune:
Incipio Z-137 Leather Flip Case for Zune 80 GB (Black)

I would highly recommend this case to anyone who has a Zune 80GB. The bottom has the opening to allow the transfer cable to be plugged in and the flip top has an opening to allow the headset to remain plugged in with the top open or closed. The leather is reasonably thick enough to allow for some soft impact absorption and there is a plastic 'window' under the flip top to allow full screen viewing, while the flip top provides total cover to protect the screen from the sun. Overall, a well designed case for you Zune 80GB.

It works very well. It is sturdy and reasonably priced. A good way to protect your investment. I especially like the magnetic closure.

After shopping around for cases this is the best, most functional case I could find. The device (I have the 80gb Zune) fits perfectly. I love the functionality. I can charge it and plug in headphones (or in my case plug it into my car radio) with no problems. I highly recommend this case.
