U-Pouch (Suede) for iPod/iPhone 2G/3G

By Stefan in Hardware

UNIEA U POUCH U Pouch (Suede) for iPod/iPhone 2G/3GIf you want to keep your iPod or iPhone safe, and have style at the same time, then you should check out the U-Pouch series from UNIEA. I’ve had the chance to get one, and I can vouch for it: it’s light, feels well built and looks great on your device.

It’s slightly elastic, so your device will fit snuggly inside, with no risk of accidentally slipping out. It’s also very cheap, with a price tag of 19,99$ from the uniea.com store.
