Product Review: Marware: Sportgrip for 3G Ipod Nano Reviewed by: Jason Gillard |

| Having just used a hard plastic case for awhile, I was anxious to see what a silicone case would be like. Enter the Marware Sportgrip for the 3g Ipod Nano. First let me tell you about what Marware includes with the case. Obviously you get the Silicone Sportgrip case, but Marware also includes a cleaning cloth and a screen and click wheel protector. The screen protector they include is decent, but the click wheel protector is not as great. The film that covers the center button just falls off and does not stick properly. But in this case Marware does not even have to include these items because most companies will charge you extra for them, so it’s a nice edition. | ||||||||||

| I got the black case to match the colour of my Nano. There is not much to putting it on Nano, you just slide the snug fitting case over your Nano and you’re done. The case covers everything but the screen and the click wheel. That is where the extra screen and click wheel protectors come in. After using the case for a few weeks I have to say that I really like it. If you use your Nano when you workout this case will provide you with a better grip. The case does not add a significant amount of bulk to the Nano which is a good thing. Marware gives you full access to the bottom of your Nano, so you can easily access the hold switch and headphone port. It should also have no problem with any of the different docks out there. The sides of the case have little ridges that also add that extra bit of grip. The one disadvantage to this type of case is that there isn’t a belt clip option or the ability to attach a lanyard. | ||||||||||

Overall I was really impressed with the feel of the case and the protection it offers. The other advantage is cost. You can pick the Sportgrip up on their website for $9.99. It also comes in a variety of colours (Clear, Black, Blue, Red, And Green). So if you’re looking for a silicone case that includes some extras and a case that won’t break the bank the Marware Sportgrip would be an excellent choice.
Highly Recommended. |
