 Excellent case with a fatal flaw December 4, 2008
P. Mistretta (brooklyn, new york USA)
this case is strong and well made,the protective screen takes all scratches and bumps that the zune screen would normally take. doesnt bother me if it gets a little scratched, can always buy another. but the fatal flaw is the bottom cutout opening for the sync cable. it's so small it will only fit the sync cable that came with the zune. if you buy a replacement sync cable,and i have bought many, it just wount click in and fit. i like to have more than one cable,one to sync one to charge. so now i have 4 that dont fit because of the case and only one that does:-( br /i still hightly reccommend this! i have looked thru dozens of cases here on amazon and nothing comes close to the quality of this one.
 Protects the Zune, but the screen is weak. September 17, 2008
D. Reeser (College Park, MD)
The case does a good job protecting the Zune from bumps and falls, it survived me dropping it with no damage. But the screen was scratched so easily that I can barely read the zunes screen when i use it, especially in the sun.
Very good case for use on belt August 31, 2008

I use my Zune on a daily bike commute and doing yard work. Belt clip option was important to me as I got used to using a belt clip with a cell phone--better than pocketing the phone or the Zune. I can operate the device without looking on the fly. br / br /Also, the case is sturdy. Obviously protects against scratches on glass screen and on the molded plastic face. It also seems to offer some protection for drops--wife dropped my Zune day after I got it in the case, from chair height. No damage to Zune and no noticeable damage or warping of the case itself. Don't think I would trust the lanyard, given the weight of the Zune/case combination, but belt clip mount was great. br / br /Overall, I prefer it to the acrylic cases (though I don't discount the value of those as my daughter's 30gb iPod Video is in virtually perfect condition after two and a half years after being encased in an acrylic cover--in the meantime, she's destroyed two phones). br / br /Overall, I recommend the Armor Metal Case, especially if you're interested in belt mounting.
Does the job. July 20, 2008

Does what it's intended to do, and does it well. Holds my Zune securely keeping it safe from bumps and scratches. Adds minimal size and weight for the level of protection - how well is a thin silicone shell going to protect your $200 investment? The screen protection is hard to keep clean and scratch free, but when I'm concerned about seeing a completely clear screen (watching a movie) I pull the Zune out (it's easy to get the Zune in and out) I'm not usually worried about the Zune getting damaged while I'm holding it in my hands.

Pluses, br /1) metal case br /2) inner padding br /3) plastic cover for zune screen, not an empty cut out in the metal br /4) zune stays cool inside the case. I was worried the zune may heat up since the case is very snug. br /5) good access to buttons and headphone jack br /Minuses, br /1) door opens on opposite side. Does NOT open like a book. Hinge is on opposite side which makes for awkwardness in openning. Also case is too hard to open with one hand (in case you were wondering) so that could not be the cause of the hinge being were it is. br /2) plastic screen protecter is great except i have a hard time seeing the screen in sunny days outside. This could be actually a zune issue rather than the case. br /All in all, the only way to protect the zune. it is cheap enough to splurge on the investment. And that comes from a guy who broke two mp3's by dropping them countless times.
