John, So. Yorkshire , “I'm a musician.”

+ As above. A neat piece of technology but overpriced.

- 1. In-ear phones too large to fit in my ears hence they keep dropping out and necessitating the purchase of
an additional pair of headphones - unnecessary expense! 2. User Manual not overly helpful. Had a tough time getting started.

+ It's very easy to use, it's got a very good battery life, the sound is a pretty good quality (as you'd expect all apple ipods to be, for their prices...). It's got some pretty good features, though a couple are a little pointless in my views. The screen is a good size for the nano and it's very clear and easy to see.

- The design could be a little better, I've never been keen on the ipod look in general. It could have come with some better earphones, and I think the price is still a little high..

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Caitlin, Oxford, student”

+ The new nano has a new feature, which allows you to shuffle songs by shaking it, but the technology has some way to go. In fact, you sort of turn it upside down and then smack it upright quickly, and that usually does it, but on the other hand it will shuffle in the middle of a song or album because it is jostled a bit. I imagine it's possible to turn this feature off, if I get around to it. It's small and sleek, but (aside from the new design) it's not much different from the nano it replaced.

- The battery life is shockingly short. I walk to and from class each day (several miles) and the battery can barely take it and often loses charge on the way home. For the cost of these extravagant little items, I would expect a slightly longer battery life.

- Very popular so possibility for a light fingered person to wish to acquire it must be high. 16Gb a little small if you are really into films. The iPod classic with 120Gb may be a better choice.

Manufacturer's Description

Rockalicious. Colour isn’t the only brilliant new iPod nano feature.

Colour isn’t the only brilliant new iPod nano feature.

A musical Genius.
Say you’re listening to a song you really like and want to hear other tracks that go great with it. The Genius feature finds the songs in your music library that go great together and makes a Genius playlist for you. It’s like having your own highly intelligent, personal DJ.

Rock and roll over.
Tilt or turn iPod nano on its side, and you’ll listen, watch and play in new ways. You can flip through your album art with Cover Flow. Or, vertically speaking, see more albums and artists on the screen at one time.

Let the games begin.
Now you can get in on games made especially for iPod nano and the accelerometer. They respond to the way you move, so they’re immersive, addictive and a blast. iPod nano comes with Maze, which lets you work your way through vast mazes by tilting and moving. You can find even more games on the iTunes Store.

Even your photos rock.
Pull hundreds of photos from your pocket and share them wherever you go. Hold iPod nano upright and see your photos in portrait view. Turn it on its side to see them in landscape. Your photos look beautiful in their proper aspect ratio on the vibrant, 320-by-240-resolution display.

Find your music faster.
It’s even easier to find the song you want to hear. Now you can view your album art in Cover Flow. Or just press and hold the Centre button to browse by album or artist. When you find the right song, press the Center button to add it to your on-the-go playlist.

Shake your groove thing.
Sometimes, we could all use a little unpredictability. And now you can shake to shuffle your music. Just give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a different song in your music library. You’ll always be surprised by what you’ll hear.

World’s biggest small screen.
Watching movies, TV shows and videos is big fun on iPod nano. And the high-resolution picture looks crisp and vivid on the 2-inch widescreen display. So you can always have a little video with you.
