Best Bets for Finding the Right iPod nano Holders for You
Trying to decide which of the iPod nano holders are right for you? This article will help you figure out what holder (or holders) you really need.
Deciding on an iPod nano holder can be more challenging than you think. You'll find different cases for different purposes, and in different styles.
For less than 10 dollars you can get a silicone film covering, a faux leather flip case, and a few plastic belt clips. But that's just the starting point. You can get nano holders for your workouts, for fashion statements, to protect from wind and rain, and more.
Where will you use your nano?
Take a minute to think through your day. When do you want your nano? Would you like background music in the house when you're starting your day? Maybe you want music for your workouts. Do you plan to listen to podcasts on the bus (train, plane)? How about when you'r driving? Will you be outside much? Are you (like me) likely to drop the nano and want it protected?
Before they're done, most people end up with a couple different nano holders. I have an armband for working out, but use a leather flip-top holder on the way to work weekdays.
While You Exercise:
Exercisers look for how to keep the iPod nano out of the way while still having easy access. We need to protect the nano from the bumps and drops that inevitably happen when exercising.
If you do a solid workout, you'll want to get a sweat-resistant armband. (You don't want your nano getting wet.) I have a neoprene armband with a plastic film front cover and a cord keeper. Armbands do have a downside, as it can be hard to see the display if you want to change the playlist.
Maybe you'd rather carry your iPod nano when working out. If so, get a holder with a slip-proof exterior (silicone works wel). Make sure it's thick enough to cushion against bumps and drops.
At Work (or While Commuting)
I used to be a consultant for a Fortune 100 company. Appearance was important, and details mattered. If you need a put-together image you should go for a leather cover. They come in flip-top or wallet fold styles, and look sleek and professional. My favorite is real leather, fits the nano tightly, and has a velvet lining to protect against scratching.
If a conservative image doesn't matter, I'm jealous. Read the next paragraphs to decide what level of practicality or style is right for you.
Common-Sense Features:
If you'll be outside much you might consider waterproof cases. Also think about whether you need a belt clip or perhaps a snap to help you keep track of the case.
If you travel, have a hectic life, or will be dropping the iPod nano to the bottom of your purse/briefcase/bag you should consider a hard case. You could also get a softer case with reinforced corners to protect the nano.
Last but not least, style:
If you want your iPod nano to show a little style, you have some good options. See the review of designer nano cases on my website for designers like Cloe Dao, Difusi, and Gilty Couture.
Know what you want now? Go forth and buy! If you're still not quite sure, stop by my website for a few ideas. Whatever you decide, you'll enjoy your new iPod 3G nano.
