Bcb, Walsall
+ Internet access, 24hr battery life, coverflow.
- Unreliable, slow, prone to freezing, takes an age to do turn on, can't be operated with 1 hand, requires a lot of effort to do simple things like change volume, had features removed that were present in the iPhone and only removed from this for product differentiation (like the email, calender, Google maps etc), the keyboard is to small and fiddly to be useful, the mirrored back that scratches easily unlike the matte aluminium back of an iphone or the 2G nano,fingerprint magnet, bundled headphones are still useless, the 16GB version is overpriced. All in all a disappointment, I returned mine due to it being faulty and I wont be buying another.

+ Slick, sexy and ultra portable. I can sufr the net from anywhere with a wireless connection and the novelty has yet to wear off!!
- Battery life is a bit dubious and it doesn't have enough applications built in.

- When using the internet I have trouble selecting the correct key becasue they are small and too close together.

Gordon, Inverness
+ Wi-fi, Coverflow, plays movies on good size screen
- Sound quality is not as good as previous ipods, bugs in software, capacity could be bigger

Paul, Manchester, “CAREFUL SHOPPPER”
+ SLEEK, STYLISH, ENJOYABLE INTERFACE EXPERIENCE, HIGH CAPACITY, SHARP VISUALS
- UNABLE TO EASILY CHANGE ARTWORK ON ALBUMS ONCE PASTED INTO ARTWORK AREA, SO CANNOT CHANGE ONES MIND OF CUSTOM DESIGNED IMAGES, WHEN OFFICIAL ONES UNAVAILABLE, ALSO EARPLUGS A BIT BIG IN THE EAR, AND LACKING IN BASS COMPARED TO MY EXPENSIVE SONY ONES ( INEVITABLY )

+ The sound and picture quality are both first class as is the ease of downloading tunes and videos
- I use it at the gym a lot and it is hard to navigate through the songs when your fingers are sweaty!!! Also the battery lie is quite short.

Lucy, Wantage
+ fantastic, keeps my husband amused on the train! Good stress relief. Great sound and picture absorbs you into another world. husband was sceptical at first that it would make his train and underground journey that much better, but now he won't leave home without it.
- screen gets dirty because you are always using your fingers to manoeuvre the screens.

Marissa, Billericay
+ Great screen, very bright and colourful
- Battery life poor. It can also be difficult using your finger to get the right volume or to move onto the next song as is a bit temperamental if you havent got your hand in exactly the right place whereas on teh other ipods with the wheel you can just click or turn the wheel without having to look at what you are doing..

+ A great piece of kit. Very slim, very fashionable, very hi-tech. This is the epitome of cutting edge, you impress yourself and others with the kool operation of this item.
- The thing seems very delicate and i wouldnt like to drop this thing. The only limitation i find is that there is not enough memory. I know people will say that 16GB is more than enough, but if ur a movie buff like me and like to upload clips, movies and videos, then this item is very easy to fill up.

Rie, Essex
+ Fantastic design, excellent picture quality and sound
- Need some sort of 'stick' to use instead of your finger. For instance, it's difficult to scroll down the alphabetical list in the contacts section as the letters are far too small.

Katherine, Church Lancashire
+ so easy to use design very 2day
- battery life with video playback

Andrew, Frodsham
+ A very under rated bit of kit in the shadow of the iphone. Everything you ever wanted to do with a hand held computer (presuming a Wifi connection) without paying over the odds and being tied to an 18 month contract - oh and it is a very capable ipod too!
- Hard drive a bit small at 16Gb by the time you've put your movie and music collection on it
22 Jan 2008
Christine, Ebbw Vale
+ convenient size, very portable, clarity of screen and images, including photos and films. Excelent sound quality.
- a bit slippery could do with nonslip edging

Ash, Midland
+ Nice product over all, easy to use,lots and lots of storage,very good sound quality.
- Not very slick,gets scracth easily,limited no. of file type support, doesn't play video songs continuously (stops after each song),only four icons can be added to dock,expensive than what it should be.

+ Store lots of music...and lots of other wonderful things if your computer minded. Nice and slimline - nice if your into gadgety things.
- I don't have a home computer! Too much faffing about to try and get music on it. I thought it'd be like buying a mobile phone..didn't realise that I'd have to download some sort of package before I could start putting music on it. Also I thought it had a radio in it...turns out you have to download that too. Still only managed to download 10 songs...takes ages. I thought I could put all my CD's on to it...will have to wait until I get a home pc to try to figure out how to do that...ahhh technology wonderful isn't it!!

+ Great functionality and really easy to use. I've got my whole music library on here so can use this in my iPod dock, car, anywhere in the house that has a radio all playing the same music. Going to get a surround sound system to give it absolute power and sound quality!!
- I can see how i would have loved this as an iPhone, but there are just too many glitches with the iPhone to get one yet, I'll wait for the 2nd phase iPhone.

Wayne, Gloucester
+ the wireless feature is great to use as a laptop. while u have wireless working use itunes and download music direct. easy to add music and get a fm sender and it hooks up to any stereo so no need for cd's.
- have to register it to get going, then update and about 40 mins later u can play with it. but it worth the wait.

+ Purchased for a teenager who is into music, the capacity & sound are excellent, its easy to use, has good Internet & audio functions. Sleek & trendy, a great product.
- This I pod does not have loud speaker facility which I thought they all had. I have since been told it is a first generation model without this feature which was not shown on the product details.
23 Dec 2008
L, Sussex, “Easy Going”
+ The brilliant touch screen and other features.
- Only the slight issues: Scratching on the back happens very easily, sound quality from speakers is a bit rubbish and it doesn't work with my older docking system.

Mary, Doncaster, “a mature lady ”
+ The photo's are are good quality, music very good, lot's of features
- It was very difficult to download it would be much better with a disc provided You can't read emails whilst travelling around.I really objected to having to buy a cover when it should be included because is essential to stop it fron being scratch, Over all I found it was not that good

+ This was a present for my 13 year old son, who downloads music, revision help for homework in Spanish and French, can access the internet really quickly, send messages via it. He absolutely loves it and I must admit it looks very easy to use, compact and lightweight, so am now considering buying one myself.
- Nothing that we've come across although would be good if it came with a carrying case.
