Apple iPod Classic (second generation, 120GB, silver) price range: $485.00
- Reviewed by: Donald Bell

The good: The second-generation iPod Classic adds a new Genius playlist feature to its time-tested combination of music, video, podcast, audiobook, and photo playback.
The bad: EQ control is limited; some older iPod video accessories may not be compatible; the plastic screen is susceptible to scratching; users are required to use the latest version of iTunes, which may not work on some older computer systems.
The bottom line: The iPod Classic refines the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and intuitive user interface.

Hate the interface
by tbcass on October 7, 2008
Pros: Looks good, sounds OK.
Cons: Short battery live, convoluted interface, hate the scroll wheel and multiple use buttons.
Summary: Dislike the way ITunes try's to do everything automatically. ITunes itself is not very intuitive, My older version does not allow bookmarking Audible files. I also have a Creative ...
Summary: Dislike the way ITunes try's to do everything automatically. ITunes itself is not very intuitive, My older version does not allow bookmarking Audible files. I also have a Creative player which I love and use while this sits in a drawer. Better players are available for a lesser price.

Specifications
- Manufacturer: Apple
- Part number: MB562LL/A
- Description: Decisions, decisions. Who needs them? Why should you have to choose what to put on your iPod? With up to 160GB of storage, iPod classic lets you carry everything in your collection - up to 40,000 songs or up to 200 hours of video - everywhere you go. In a completely new, even thinner, all-metal design, this iPod is a modern classic. If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod classic, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to flip it over and see the track list. Use the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, browse in Cover Flow, or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album, song, genre, composer, and more. Want to mix things up? Click Shuffle Songs. iPod classic makes your music look as good as it sounds, thanks to its big, bright, color display. Buy movies from the iTunes Store and you can sync them to your iPod classic to watch anywhere, anytime. The gorgeous 2.5-inch display makes your movies pop. And iPod classic keeps you entertained for up to 7 hours. Long flight or darkened room? Adjust the brightness for even more video playback time. There's always something good on iPod classic. Browse thousands of episodes of your favorite TV shows on the iTunes Store, buy them, then sync them to iPod classic. Watch last night's episodes this morning, or buy a whole TV series and play a pocket-size marathon. The iTunes Store features thousands of free video and audio podcasts, including indie favorites and offerings from such big names as ABC News, Comedy Central, ESPN, PBS, NPR, and many more. Browse and subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod classic. You can even play video podcasts on TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable. The digital shelves of the iTunes Store are stocked with thousands of audiobooks - including exclusives like the entire Harry Potter series - so you can catch up on your reading wherever iPod classic takes you. iPod classic recognizes where you left off and bookmarks your place. You can even adjust the reading speed to suit you. Put hours of fun at your fingertips. iPod classic comes with three games - Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike - and you can download more from the iTunes Store. All iPod games are designed specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2.5-inch color display. iPod classic holds up to 25,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through photo thumbnails the same way you scroll through song titles. To see a photo full screen, click the center button. You can even view photo slideshows - complete with music and transitions - on iPod classic or on a TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable. Calendars, contacts, and a clock appear in the Extras menu, along with a few more handy items. Take the screen lock, for example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose a four-digit combination and protect your iPod classic from prying eyes. If you forget your combination, just reset when you sync. Or use the built-in stopwatch to log your best times.
