User Reviews for Apple IPod Nano 4GB MP3 Player - Black

Reviewed by: res07ad5

Duration of ownership: 2 Days

Strengths: great sound, compact design and quick synchronization

Weaknesses: Does not support gapless playback!

Overall Evaluation: Once again, Apple has released a new and improved iPod that fails to address a persistent complaint - gapless playback! I listen to classical music primarily, and opera in particular. I simply cannot tolerate the gap that iPods place between tracks, even when I specify to transfer my music as a gapless CD. Once again, Apple fails. I returned my iPod Nano to the store the day after I bought it.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: synch's up with itunes in a subliminal manor. Small and compact. earphone port on bottom. simple everything. lcd (and a color one at that).

Weaknesses: Click wheel extremely sensitive, I havent been able to change that, but don't know if u can. Very very expensive for such a small amount of storage. Much too trendy for me, everyone has this.

Overall Evaluation: Easy use, extremely small, very high price, almost nothing apple makes is compatible with anything else (a greedy company is a very bad thing in my eyes). too trendy. there are better deals out there.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: VERY SMALL, bright screen, great battery life

Weaknesses: non-removable battery. When the battery dies, you have to replace the entire item.

Overall Evaluation: I am hard on my electronics, so i HIGHLY recommend purchasing the Speck Tough Skin Case. I got this right away and it has survived me for a month so far, it's great! It has fallen, thrown (to test the durability.. I'm not that crazy!!) Holds a great amount of songs, i wish it could hold a little more.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: compact nano-like designplays video - 1gb plays over 5 full feature films, 250+ songsGreat price - cost more than 1/3 LESS than the ipod Video

Weaknesses: can only get it in up to 2gb... which would be 10 films,, 1gb is standard

Overall Evaluation: it all depends on how hyped you are about apple products. this product is clearly atleast 1/2 the price of the comperable apple product. it uses mpeg4 technology to compress data.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: SLIM, EASY TO USE, COMPACT, VERSATILE

Weaknesses: SHORT SHORT SHORT BATTERY LIFE

Overall Evaluation: I love this little device. I have never been able to hold 300 songs in the palm of my hands. I listen to it in the car(I know, I know, that's not safe).The playlist are easy to compile and I love the games on it. I would buy this product again and again!!
