“Rubbish”

Written on: 09/06/2012

I purchsed a 6th gen 16gb nano so that I could upload to it he 4,000 songs that it says can be uploaded. after 18,000 songs of average lenght ( ie 3 mins or so, at 128 kbps -- the lowest it will let you record at) it is full. Nothing else is loaded on it. There is no support from apple.Do not buy this. The lack of support is a real let down. ps apple say you get 3 months foc support on new purchase ha ha ha -- try using it. --- My adice is dont get caught, Theres lots on the market thats...

“Different Style, Same Greatness”

Written on: 28/12/2011 by makesmemad (1 review written)

Had the Nano now for couple of days. Always been a fan of Apple and at first I wanted the previous gen as it was classic Nano. I didn't fancy buying a second hand one so went for the 6th gen instead. At first I was surprised with the packaging, I thought how could the connection lead and earplugs fit in the packaging let alone the ipod. Then I realised, the ipod itself was the smallest thing ever. As I turned it on I was pleased with the feel and the response and after uploading music and... (read more)

“A little bit expensive but worth it if you don't have...”

Written on: 14/08/2011 by davehalls (2 reviews written)

It is quite expensive compared to the iPod Touch, iPhone 4 or iPod Shuffle but the device itself is very sweet and has little apps that are very cool. I recently bought the Apple/Nike GPS tracking which is a little gadget that you plug into there (also works with Touch and iPhone) to get statistics on my running and fitness and it is great. The Nano is so small that you barely notice you carry it and the battery lasts for quite long. The only reason I wouldn't get it is because the screen is... (read more)

Great product. I would describe it as a super product to my friends and family. It is seriously really good. I cant believe its that good. I still cant believe its that good. My friend Bob also says its good and if you knew Bob you would know that he would never lie. Bob is cool - you can trust Bob. (read more)

This is a fantastic product. The ipod is fantastic and worth the money. I listen to this every morning on the train to work as a trader.

If you want to listen to your music with a small device that is not as big as an iphone; then this is recommended.

I love the device and I have purchase one for my sister.

It holds loads of music and has great games.

Another great invention by Apple (read more)

Written on: 21/04/2011 by stefandare (2 reviews written)

I personally never liked Ipods, however, I felt I was being judgmental considering I have never had one! I bought my Apple Ipod Nano 16GB - 6th generation from www.ebay.co.uk and I got it brand new for only £107.50. It was a bargain at that price. It's perfect, it clips onto your jeans, jacket, bag strap, anywhere you want to clip it! It stays on pretty securely so you don't have to worry about it falling off. The "genius mix" is perfect, it puts your music into playlists for you, music that... (read more)

Written on: 01/01/2011 by kia1 (8 reviews written)

Admittedly, I would never have before purchased an Apple product for myself; I think they're massively over-priced and certainly excessively hyped-up considering that there are cheaper options on the market that perform similarly. However, now that I've been bought this iPod for Christmas, I appreciate the product a lot more.

This is much better than a standard MP3 player or the cheaper iPod Shuffle because the featured screen and excellent touch interface allow browsing music and photos... (read more)

“I am teaching myself how to scull on the Charles river...”

Written on: 18/09/2010

I am teaching myself how to scull on the Charles river and I fell in twice this morning (I bought my 6th gen Nano last nite and had it clipped to my shirt.) Each time I fell in, I was totally submerged for 20-30 seconds. The nano kept playing without a hitch and is still just fine.
It is not advertised to be waterproof, but it clearly is. Bravo Apple.
