Score 8.0/10+ Easy to carry, nicely designed and sounds great for such a small object. Sounds good in a docking station too.
- None really as the general interface is good. However, as the screen goes dark (presumably to save battery) it is difficult to see what track is being played. Would be nice to be able to choose to have the screen always illuminated!

Expert reviews for Apple iPod Nano 8GB 3rd Generation
TechRadar expert review
What makes an iPod an iPod? It can't be the interface, because Creative says it designed that (natch). Could it be the clickwheel? Well the new iPod touch doesn't have one of them so it can't be that either, really. So what is it?The answer is a word that begins with 'q' and ends with 'uality'. It's made by Apple, and Apple makes quality products. That's almost all you need to know.Anti-scratch surfaceYou'll not find a speck of plastic on the new nano; it's got a matt-finish aluminium top surface, and the now-classical stainless steal back plate underneath. So the first thing you…

PC Advisor expert review
The first thing you'll notice about the third-generation Apple iPod nano is its 2in display. How can you not? The display occupies more than half of the device.

MP3 Players Buying GuideManufacturer's Description
An anodised aluminium top and polished stainless steel back. Five eye-catching colours. A larger, brighter display with the most pixels per inch of any Apple display, ever. iPod nano stirs up visual effects from the outside in.
And it’ll wow you for hours. Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on a single charge1. All that staying power and a wafer-thin, 6.5-mm profile makes iPod nano one small big attraction.
