Ipod touch

I have the ipod touch. It didn't come with a charger so I had to order one. When I got it the ipod came on and asked a couple of questions
It then said do you want to login. I do not have internet so I can't log in. I can't go passed the log in screen. So I can't say whether the sound quality is good or not. Read full review...

It works good, but it dies fast.

Ever since I got this iPod touch, the battery life has been weird. It literally can’t last 10 seconds without dying instantly. I have to have it plugged in at all times. Other than that, it works pretty good.Read full review...

Apple iPod Nano 16gb 4th Generation

I bought this iPod when my 3rd generation iPod ran out of memory space. I ended up getting an iPod with double the memory. It was brand new (factory sealed) when I purchased it. The screen was not as I expected it. It plays video only in landscape mode which I found a little annoying at first but I eventually got over it. The music mode is a little more advanced than its third generation predecessor. Its high resolution screen impressed me. The only down side is the accelerometer (the device which is behind all the turning around cover flow/ shuffle). It gets annoying. Sometimes when you put the iPod down it goes into cover which turns on the backlight (thus reducing battery life). Also when you walk around with it in your hands, it shakes around (obviously) which activates the shuffle (which I believe should have never been a feature in this iPod) changing your song. Another problem I saw with it was that it is not compatible with my iPod charger that has worked with every other previous iPod nano I have had. Now, I have to either buy a new charger or charge it via my computer (which I find extremley inconvienient. Overall, the 4th generation iPod nano is basically just another iPod with the usual next-generation updates (thinner, more colors, more memory capacty, etc.) with one important (and sometimes annoying) update, the accelerometer. So, if you like the iPod touch you will like this nano. It sure is different from previous nanos. Have fun purchasing your nano!Read full review...

It's a fantastic music player!

Whether it's an iPhone, iPad, iPad Mini, or iPod Touch, they're all essentially vessels for Apple's iOS software. The fourth-generation Apple iPod Touch isn't likely to turn heads or draw the envy of your peers, but it's the least expensive way to enjoy the same software and type of experience offered by its newer siblings.

If I were in the market for a new portable media player, this would be the iPod I would buy myself. Not because it's the best, but because it's the best value. You get the vast majority of the features that make the fifth-generation iPod Touch so great, but in a humbler, more affordable package. It's a fantastic music player, a killer mobile gaming platform, and one of the best pocket-size distractions money can buy.

Nice unit...hard to use at first

I love the size of this unit..although sometimes i think it will break in my pocket because of it's thinness. Since this is my first time using an iPod like product. I have to say it was a little hard to get everything in wanted installed...my songs, pictures. and i still have not figured out how to import video yet from my hard drive. So to anyone who purchases one of these..it's worth taking the time and go to download the instructions manual. If i never had that..i would not be able to import items so easily. big tip: save that instruction manual on your computer..because i would not be surprised if one day apple takes it off the website as they move on to better products.Read full review...

Apple iPod nano chromatic Black (16 GB, MB918LL/A) MP3

The new 4th generation ipod nano is my first ipod. I love the size, shape, and the new screen. Everything is awesome, but the only down fall is that you can't shuffle songs within playlists. The Genius feature is pretty cool. If you want to use it in your car (play it through your radio, there are a few that work with the 4th generation model but it won't charge as you're playing it. Hopefully, they will make one soon!Read full review...

Apple iPod nano chromatic Black (16 GB, MB918LL/A) MP3

It is a very nice looking unit. Slim, aluminum, solid. Feels like quality. However it is not so easy to use for people with big hands. I find myself constantly dropping it or pressing the wrong thing. Sound quality is great, video quality is beyond expectation for a 2" screen. i HATE the shuffle feature in which you shake it and it shuffles the songs. I just drop it in my pocket on its head and off it goes. I drop it in my lap in the car and sure enough... so i find myself swearing at it alot. Putting the lock on solves alot of that problem but i wish i could just shut it off. Again, I think my frustrations are due to the fact that it is so small and slender and the click wheel seems smaller than i remember on other nanos and definately the classic. Itunes is so so as well. I expected a huge assortment of music but its typical radio fare. nothing new. So overall its okay.Read full review...

4th Generation iPod Nano 16 GB

I owned the 8 gig refurb version of this iPod for a little over a year and it was fantastic. My original one cam up missing and I didn't want to replace it with some knock off brand of MP3 player like I have owned in the past. Apple makes a truly outstanding product. I didn't want to upgrade to a new version of the iPod, because I had really gotten used to the operation and the features of the 4th gen nano. Also, I wanted more storage since I listen to a lot of Mike and Bob radio show podcasts. I haven't listened to the radio since I have owned an iPod. It is terrific!Read full review...

The 4th Generation Nano does it right!

The 4th generation Nano, Available in capacities of 8GB, and 16GB (priced at $149 & $199 respectively) these have a scratch-resistant aluminum body and are now slimmer than ever. The unit has new rounded, contour edges that make it feel thinner than it is and feel right in your hand. The new line-up comes in a whole array of colors to match the rainbow, and to match your personality as well.

The 4th Generation Nano has completely redesigned the Nano over the 3rd generation “Fat”, and it feels like it is different on the sides when you hold it comparatively to the older generations. Stepping back to the 1st and 2nd generation designs, it takes the good of the style of the 2nd gen, along with the advancements in the “Fat” 3rd generation versions, and creates a winning design. This design is a lot thinner than it was, yet retains the 2-inch screen, though it is millimeters thinner. The new screen saves the room for viewing your tracks and playing games, but the genius comes in the flipping of the screen.

The screen with this change, still has a 2-inch viewing area, which makes it very easy to use, browse and watch. When view movies, shows, podcasts with the new Nano, the Nano should be flipped to a “widescreen” view, in which the new accelerometer changes the landscape and viewing of this device. This new Nano still has a long battery life. Apple claims that it will last 36 hours, but I was able to get just over 32 hours of playtime – which is nice… real nice. The video experience was just over 6 hours – as advertised.

Another thing about the accelerometer. The accelerometer also enables 'shake to shuffle', where a flick of the wrist will choose a random song. This feels like it has been done right. It also allows easy use of the coverflow system, which runs much smoother this time around.

The new music search functions (Genius), the brighter screen,, sound quality, smoother ease and use of coverflow, and continued games support give the new iPod added flare. The addition of voice notes won't make a difference to most people, as you'll need to buy some extra headphones with a microphone built in – but it is nice to know that it is there if you do.

The addition of Genius, an automatic playlist generator, is going to be a massive hit with iPod fans. Genius will be massive, because it will - if it works as advertised - unlock the potential of your iPod library and help keep parties jumping or evenings chilled. It will also allow Apple to recommend tracks to you by your listening tastes as well.

As a fan small MP3 players, and of the past Nano line-ups, I love this design. I really do. I think the all aluminum casing is the way to go, and I am happy again that it is all around the unit. Should you replace your old 8GB Nano (3rd Generation) with the new one? If you really want accelerometer video abilities and Genius, I would say yes. Regardless if you upgrade, or decided to wait it out, I highly recommended this device to Apple lovers and new MP3 enthusiasts alike.

Pros:
-Brighter, crisper viewing screen
-Aluminum scratch-resistant casing all around the body
-Amazing battery-life: 30+ hours plus (6+ with video)!
-Search features, cover flow, album art, Genius
-Accelerometer for video viewing and song shuffling
-Genius song selection
-Microphone capabilities
-LOTS of new colors to choose from
-Games via iTunes

Cons
-Still no built in FM tuner
-Limited space when it comes to video & games

IPod Nano Music

It is very simple to use. Scrolling through the menus is pretty intuitive. Can set it to automatically sync up with the PC each time it's plugged in or you can do it manually. Fits nice in your hand. Go bigger GB wise (it's only a bit more $'s) because you never know what your going to get into, even if you don't think you will now, you might tomorrow. This thing should last a long time, so plan for growing with it. I.E. I don't plan on putting pictures on it, but maybe if I go to visit the grandparents, I can load it up and show them all of them. You can buy an inexpensive cord (3.5 MM to RCA connection)and plug it into the full size stereo system and listen to it there. I tunes is a pretty good application and it is pretty easy in itself. Making the play lists is pretty straight forward and copying music from discs is easy as well. Love the internet radio from there. Going to set up the Linksys Music bridge to stream to the main stereo for this. Hope it works well. Wish this had an FM tuner in it. Couldn't be that hard to do in this day and age. All in all, a very good product. Could be easy to loose being so small.Read full review...

16 GB ipod nano

I love the small, smooth, classy compactness of this Gen 6 unit. It's features and functions are great! "Cool" to the touch! (Style not temperature)
Works great with my Altech Lansing im600 in my old classic boat, nice that I can take it out on a secluded beach somewhere or by the campfire at night... The screen is nice and bright, clear and great for viewing pictures as well. Love the new glass view screen! It's also nice I don't have to worry about the stereo in the boat getting messed up from moisture! Use it in my truck all the time as well. 16 GB is a lot of Music, anything more would get too confusing when searching for your mood - never bored with listening to the same thing to often.Read full review...
