(More customer reviews)*Updated review, May, 2008: After just about 8 mos. of usage, the Griffin Reflect (for iPod Nano 2G) is now broken. The case doesn't hold the iPod anymore and it kept sliding. Though it's protective, the case gets lots of scratches and it makes the screen largely hard to read unless you're in a shaded area. One star out of 5. Old review:
Pros: Great-looking design gets ***** out of 5. Sleek and spare, there's the added visual bonus of the screen "disappearing" when the screen light is off and reappearing when it's back on. Protects your IPod from scratches and minor bumps but I'm not sure how it'll stand to drops and major impacts.
Cons: Highly impractical esp. if you use your iPod mostly outdoors. Strangely enough, you CANNOT see the screen when you're in bright or direct sunlight outdoors (you can see a bit in the shade). The whole case protects the iPod (with a matte rubber half in the back and the only opening on the iPod dial) so you can just see the screen in artifical light, not natural. Even then it's darker than normal. Also it's a little prone to marks and tiny scratches. In a span of more than a month, it's already gotten lots of tiny marks and possibly permanent smudges (Fantastick and Windex won't work). Also sensitive to the natural oils you get on your hands so fingerprints are a common sight though seemingly temporary.
Average: Three (3) out of 5 stars. If you're highly averse to those clunky protective cases, or horribly designed skins like I am, the great, unique look balances out the absurd lack of practicality of the Griffin Reflect. It won't last long is my guess. There's a very slight, barely noticeable, loosening of the case which I sense once in a while.

This chromed polycarbonate hardshell case has been polished to a mirror finish. The faceplate above the click wheel is a smooth unbroken expanse of mirror -- until the iPod screen lights up and is revealed as if by magic. The case back is a matte black rubberized finish that perfectly complements the chrome face and provides a comfortable, sure grip.
