Apple iPod touch 16 GB > Reviews

Advantages: Design, weight, colour, widescreem wi-fi
Disadvantages: Memory, headphones, touch can be a little frustrating

...personal opinion is the lame apple headphones. I would definately recommend upgrading to a decent pair to enable the ipod to blast out the music to it's full potential. Also I find the fact the ipod flips to an album cover almost as soon as a song has begun is slightly annoying, it needs a right side tap, and another flick just to skip to another song. The 16GB version doesnt come with a wall charger either, so should you take your fashionable little ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, lots of space, superb touchscreen
Disadvantages: Having to use iTunes,

The Apple Ipod Touch 16GB I purchased was my third Ipod I bought, the first I owned was a 512MB Ipod Shuffle and then a larger 60GB Ipod video. The huge upgrade for Apple bringing out a video playing ipod, and then larger another huge upgrade when they moved to touch screens. Has kept attracting me back to Apple and making me spend far too much money on their products. The Touch is so much more than just a music mp3 player, which is all iPods ever ... Read review

Advantages: Music, Videos, Wi-Fi, the list goes on
Disadvantages: Battery is a bit poor

...brilliant piece of work and Apple have really outdone themselves on it. I used to be dead against the iPod Touch and the iPhone but now I'm all turned around on the subject. ... Read review

Advantages: Not just music, but an app store full of thousands of apps, wifi, video, photo and more!
Disadvantages: It is hard to think of a disadvantage but the main one would be that it can occasionally crash.

Advantages: Very slim design, superb visuals, built-in wifi with full web, jailbreak to increase functionality
Disadvantages: Isn't the BEST sound, but that's being very picky!

...it is. How on earth Apple managed to pack everything in it is way beyond me. The first decent thing therefore is the packaging - nothing is wasted. The box is incredibly small so won't clutter anything. Now onto the main review. The Apple iPod Touch is one amazing music player. Unfortunately it still does not support OGG-Vorbis, but of course AAC makes up for this so you can still retain great quality sound with lower bitrates. The iPod Touch doesn't ... Read review

Advantages: Sleek, Stylish, Great use of technology, Good sound
Disadvantages: Costly, Little hard drive space, dodgy touch screen

...the ipod touch only cost apple $197 (around £100), less than hald of what apple are selling the touch for. The third and final fault with the touch is the hard drive space which is virtually non existent. Personally, I have a lot of music and videos that I would like to store on my Ipod but the small 16gb hard drive just cant handle the amount of music and video I want to put on it, unlike the ipod classic which can hold up to 160gb, 10 times as much ...

Advantages: Looks great, accompanying software is easy to use, music quality is brilliant
Disadvantages: Screen tilting can be a little oversensitive, no cut and paste (yet), quite expensive

Once again Apple has created a stylish product that is easy to use and technologically advance. This paired with Apple's great customer support make the iPod Touch a smart choice. It is so much more than an mp3 player, with great games available, many for free, and many great applications, again, many for free. You can also download TV shows and movies via iTunes to put on you iPod to keep you entertained while you're out and about. I've had my iPod ... Read review

Advantages: The user friendly platform, built in wifi, plenty of space, apps store, future proofness
Disadvantages: no speakers

Got the ipod touch 16gb for christmas, finally the firmware was uploaded after about a week of trying and numerous charges to my credit card. I love the layout and the feel of the platform, especially the scrolling and the auto orientation of the screen when you turn it around. Would have loved the built in speaker but heh, we can't have everything. Otherwise the sound quality via the headphones is great, very crisp and has nice depth. My fave ... Read review

Advantages: Trendy cool factor, decent capacity.
Disadvantages: Crappy earphones low battery life and poor codec compatibility. High cost

The apple iPod touch is great, but it has many flaws that users need to be aware of. One main reason to buy this is the ability to have a functional web tablet with a relatively good keyboard. But, using it will drain your battery VERY quickly, 2 solid hours of surfing takes my battery from full to zero. Also, if you are the type of person who listens to single tracks and has a shuffle button fetish, the fact you need to open up the interface and ... Read review

Advantages: looks and it is touch screen
Disadvantages: not so much distinguished in specifications from other ipods

...format support - just AAC, Apple Loss less and MP3 for music and H.264 and MPEG4 files for video. There's no FLAC, Ogg Vorbis or WMA support, nor any for DivX or WMV, MPEG1 or 2.It's has very beautifully designed and fantastically thin at just 8mm, its actually size is little larger than a standard iPod, measuring 62mm wide by 110mm tall. And battery is about 22 hours for audio and five hours for video. Is simple touch screen really be worth paying ... Read review

Advantages: Great GUI, great music and video experience, great design
Disadvantages: not used to its full potential and can feel a bit basic at times

...the amount of memory. But apple could have done a lot better. Take for instance with older ipods you could use your ipod as external storage from your computer but this feature has been taken out of the touch for no apparent reason. The touch also has no volume buttons like the iphone which could come in handy. However the screen is great for viewing videos, the sound quality is great as is the general music experience. Coverflow really adds to ... Read review
