Otterbox iPod Classic Defender Case

The Defender Series is another product offered by OtterBox that is a great deal for the price. If you value your gadgets, it would make sense that you would need to protect them.

Compared to the Armor Series (reviewed here), the Defender Series offers a more sleek and compact package. You also do not need to remove your iPod from the case to charge it, as the silicone plugs are easily removed to reveal the charge/sync port. However, the Armor Series is waterproof up to three feet, whereas the Defender Series is not. If you are more of an outdoor iPod user, it may be worthwhile to protect your iPod the best you can; with an Armor case. For everyday use, the Defender Series is more compact and functional for charging. Whichever route you choose… the Defender Case is a purchase you definitely won’t regret.
