Apple's seventh-generation iPod touch comes complete with a new processor, to run more advanced iOS features than previous models. But though it has that new processor on the inside, on the outside, it's the same size as the previous two iPod touch models, meaning that cases for those iPods, including waterproof cases, will fit the new iPod touch 7 just fine. We've rounded up a selection of cases for your iPod touch 7 that will mean your music player stays protected from water and more, meaning you can use it anywhere with confidence.
Total protection
Lifeproof is one of the top names in cases for iOS devices, and the FRĒ case is a great choice if you want to both totally protect your iPod touch and still see it's beautiful color. The FRĒ has built-in scratch and drop protection, as well as water resistance up to two meters, or 6.6 feet.
Colorful safety
Another option that's waterproof up to two meters, this case features silicone covers for the iPod's Lightning port and headphone jack, and protects against scratches and drops up to two meters, as well as liquid submersion. The case includes a kickstand that lets you stand it up.
Crystal clear protection
Re-sport's offering also boasts water resistance up to two meters, as well as full protection against water and dust with its IP68 rating. It's also shock-proof to military standards, so it will shield from drops. The clear back panel of the case allows you to see your iPod touch in all of its colorful glory.
Keeps everything out
Another product from Meritcase, the very capable Knight case offers full protection against dust and dirt, as well as up to two meters of water. Your iPod touch will be safe from drops, too. This features a flip-down latch to protect the Lightning port, and a screw-in cover for the headphone jack, as well as a handy kickstand.
Fully shielded
Besinpo's case keeps your iPod touch safe from dust, as well as submersion in up to two meters of water for up to 30 minutes. The back is transparent, so you can admire whichever beautiful color of iPod touch you picked out. It has a snap-on, two-layer design that offers protection while keeping a slim-fit profile.
Affordable defense
Just because it's cheap doesn't mean it can't protect your iPhone. Available in this attractive blue hue, this colorful case from Eazewell defends against dust, sand, water, and even frost while leaving access to all ports. With a slimline design, it's easy to both install your iPod touch into and extricate your iPod touch from.
