2.0 out of 5 stars
Probably not what you're looking for., January 7, 2008
There aren't many Zune accessories out on the market currently, but I thought to give this one a try because I was looking for something that would protect my Zune yet still let me be able to view the laser-etching on the reverse side, so I bought the clear plastic one.
So, let's start with the good things. The plastic does feel good, and only mildly inhibits the touch sensitivity of the Zune Pad. Also, the adhesive plastic used to protect the screen is very clear, so it still looks just as great.
And now the reason for why this is only a two-star review. The plastic is very loose around the top of the Zune. I tried using the arm-strap and going for a light jog and the Zune nearly popped out of the sleeve. Also, the arm-strap is very very tight. This might not be an issue for some/most people, but I'm a bigger guy, and even with the arm-strap at the largest possible setting, it still felt very uncomfortable. But back to the plastic sleeve. It also doesn't do a satisfactory job of exposing the headphone jack. All in all, it's just not a very good cover.
Also, the reason I tried the clear model was so that I could see my design on back. I have to admit, it's possible to determine that there is a design on the back, but not well enough to have warranted this purchase. If that's your reason for choosing this product, you will be disappointed. At the same time, however, this is probably one, if not the only, third party accessory that lets you view the backing.
