The Incase Neoprene Sleeve for iPod nano provides all the protection of a good iPod case, but also has one drawback that prevents it from being a 5-star product.

Like other iPod nano cases, you slip the nano into this one to protect the screen and Clickwheel.

The case is built from a stretchy neoprene and has a thicker leatherette face covering. The case offers a belt clip and leaves space for the headphone jack. The hold button isn’t easy to get to, however. Though there is an opening for it, it’s not quite big enough. Luckily, the stretchy neoprene makes it easy to access the button even through the case.

The major flaw in the case is the covering for the Clickwheel. It’s not sensitive enough. Scrolling through the covering isn’t smooth and is both slower and harder than it is without the case or with cases from other companies. This makes using the case frustrating and slower than it should be.

Other than this flaw, the Incase Neoprene Sleeve for iPod nano is a solid iPod case. Still, you may want to test this one out, to see how the scrolling issue strikes you, before buying.
