Pretty darn good
by katamari5 on June 15, 2009
Pros: OS, battery life, screen resolution, nice shade of color
Cons: Slightly washed out screen, OS could be just the slightest bit sluggish
Summary: I owned the white iPod nano 1gb (first generation) previously to the 3rd generation. It is a very significant upgrade to the iPod line and it bring a fresh new ...
Summary: I owned the white iPod nano 1gb (first generation) previously to the 3rd generation. It is a very significant upgrade to the iPod line and it bring a fresh new look. The navigation and such it a breeze and OS goes along pretty smoothly. Apple said that the color may fade over time, so I put mine in a hard case. I used it for a year and the color didn't even make a noticeable change. The battery life was great. Although this nano can play video, I don't suggest watching whole movies. Maybe just TV shows because the screen is a little eye twisting after a while and colors really looked washed out after too long. Over all I really suggest this to anyone that doesn't plan on putting a ton of stuff on their iPod. It is best for moderate use.

the one mp3 player I always carry

Summary: One of my favorite pieces of technology. I carry my iPod Nano wherever I go. I love how I can watch videos on it, though the screen is a bit small for it. My only wish is that it had more space! I have lots of music I wouldn't mind having in such a compact device.

Beautiful design through-and-through
by 38t on November 18, 2007
Pros: Interface and chassis looks great. Screen packsthe pixels in, and it's video capable. Intuitive interface, 8GB, Coverflow is fluid, though not fast, sound quality is nice, plenty of 3rd party stuff
Cons: Chrome back scratches EASILY, comes with nothing preloaded, propietary cable and software (iTunes), no FM radio or voice recorder, missing custom EQ
Summary: Bought the new Nano after being turned off by an older model Zune, and I've liked it right out of the box. iTunes isn't my favorite for music, ...
Summary: Bought the new Nano after being turned off by an older model Zune, and I've liked it right out of the box. iTunes isn't my favorite for music, since my WMA's are now some new format, but it's clean and easy to use. Same can be said for the player, once I put music on it. It sounds "punchy", album art looks good on there, though I've had some problems putting it on, but that's a complaint with iTunes. I've babied this thing, but there are still scratches on the back, so a case is a must have, but the front is tougher, the screen is yet to show a scratch, and pictures etc...look excellent. The click wheel is easy to use, though the middle button is a bit flimsy. Using a propietary cable sucks, but at least its supplied. The headphones it comes with are above mediocre, but there are better replacements. I like the colors offered, I bought a black one. I'd recommend anyone to get one as long as they like iTunes and not drag-and-drop mp3s, and if they don't mind getting a case to protect it. Also, I just bought a car stereo, and guess what? It's compatible with my iPod, I can control the songs through the deck, I'm really impressed with the amount of 3rd party accessories for this thing.

Offically Done with iPods / For now!!
by blatz91 on November 18, 2007

Summary: Years of owning iPods has lead me into the hands of Microsoft. I have always had ipods (Hard Drive for main storage and Nano/shuffle for working out) Last year I dropped my Classic for the Zune 30 based off of song and video output alone. Now after having one of the new/ but nothing really new except for getting wider nanos for about a week Ill be boxing it up and trading it in for a new zune 8gb. Honestly It will be hard to give up my last ipod but what apple has offered up in this last upgrade is a slap in the face. The interface is the same and boring, I get a smaller click wheel, and poor sound. I know they focused alot of attention to the ipod touch , but even that is over priced for its limited function as a mp3 player. There are to many great choices in flash based for apple to sit back and keep putting out the same concept in a new shell. For now I will cling onto my last apple product (mac book pro) and hope for better days in the

Summary: Nice product. Video is beautiful. Audio is very nice. Clickwheel is a bit too sensitive for me. But why in the world did Apple put the headphone jack on the bottom? How do you watch video without holding it or using the dock. Can't even stand it up on the kitchen table.
