Apple iPod touch 16 GB

...it. Personally I feel that Apple should allow for this by putting a protector in the box, or even a case to sit the Touch in. I'm not being tightfisted here, but the reality is that to buy a case is not an easy thing; being a new product now shops in my town had a case to fit the product, and ordering can take up to a fortnight, which in reality means a bit of a longer weight before using your new toy. There is no mains adapter, to charge your Ipod ...
...And finally my biggest complaint, Apple assumes you have experience of Ipod products, and as a result provide you with no instruction guide. Yes there is a quick start fact sheet, but no detailed information. It took me some time to figure out how to expand the size of the screen, especially considering the quick start guide gives you duff information, it says tap the screen to enlarge, this simply is not the case. And even some weeks after purchasing ...

SETUP - Setup is easy, you plug your iPod into your computer and start iTunes (If not present you must download it) you then tranfer you music, videos and photos through that.

BUT in order to use your ipod to its potential I strongly reccommed you JailBreak your iPod. Jailbreak is a term to describe opening your ipod up to 3rd party applications. NOTE: you cannot break you ipod by jailbreaking it! - The apps that come on the ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 16 GB

...couple of times at the Apple store and I have to say, it's one of the coolest mp3 (or is it an mp4?) players ever. I finally got one around the last week of December at Best Buy and I'm completely happy with the Touch. It's simply magnificent. The only complaints I have about the item are kind of minuscule overall but would definitely make the iPod Touch better. The iPod Touch features a beautiful 3.5 inch screen where you basically do all the navigating ...
...plastic. For the Touch, Apple decided to use the shiny mirror back they use for basically all iPods. I absolutely hate this back. It cries "FINGERPRINT AND SCRATCH ME" to me and I hate getting fingerprints and scratches on it (the Touch doesn't come with any sort of case and my Touch already has a few scratches on it...) Buy a case off of ebay (which I did) or something and protect it. Also the headphones that come with the Touch are not as good ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 16 GB

...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 ...
...the headphones supplied, are although apple pretty, are weak, there was no charger, and the memory is half that of my previous ipod. I find it a little more effort to skip a track, and my recently played list is not what I have recently played! But saying that its a gorgeous little device, very stylish, very clever with its wi-fi capabilities, and well worth the money. The fact that people will double take it, and mistake it for an iphone makes ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 16 GB

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 ...
...an Apple iphone without the GSM and sim card parts, this is the closest Apple have ever got to producing a mini computer, or tablet. What can the Touch do you ask; well first of all it plays music, videos, and pictures as standard. This is all you ever bought an iPod for, you now have a fully Wi-Fi connection, an accerolometer built in, a functioning application store on apple.com where you can download hundreds of thousands of applications and games ...

== Intro: == The Apple ipod touch 16GB model gives you enough storage to store tons of songs, videos, pictures and applications to keep you entertained for hours! This ipod also comes in a range of 8GB and 32GB but i am reviewing this specific one as i own this model. In this review i will speak about the many features and other things that have been included in this mp3 player that gives it such an amazing feel to it when being used. == Specifications: ...
...downloaded for free from the Apple website or it can also be installed from the CD that comes with the ipod (make sure that the itunes that you have is version 8 or later). Your computer will have to either be running on Windows Vista ( 32-bit or 64-bit doesn't really matter) or Windows XP service pack 2. However if you own a Apple Mac then it will have to be running on Mac OS X 10.4.10 or anything later than that. == Features: == The ipod touch ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 16 GB

...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 ...
...fault would be being very picky indeed. Now onto the visuals. Absolutely superb. Even just looking at album art - you'll be astounded as to quality. But if you think that's great, the video player is even better. Supporting videos of 640x480 using the MPEG-4AVC codec, the quality is simply breath-taking. But that is what you expect from Apple, right? Well the iPod Touch features an awful lot more. Inbuilt 802.11g WiFi is probably the biggest thing ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 16 GB

...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 ...
...flashy gadget that does have high level of technology and has a fairly long battery life, and are willing to compromise on hard drive space then this is the by far the MP3 player for you, however, if space is essential for you, then the Ipod classic is the ideal MP3 player that is also easy to use. ...

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 ...
...about what you'd expect, it can last for about a week or so depending on how heavily you use it, and how often you play the games. The internet function is very useful. I often use it to google things to settle arguments down the local pub, which has wifi. I use it so often I'm thinking of springing for mobile broadband soon. The sound quality is good given the size of the speaker on it, but with headphones it's crystal clear if your music is good ...

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 ...
...app store where you can get numerous programs to run (both for free and for a small charge- believe me you'll be surprised at the great quality apps you can get for free). The wifi connects to both my home wireless router and public access points (both here and abroad) without fail with reasonable speeds. I would recommend one of the apps that detects and rates the quality of available networks to really speed this up. Have used the calender and ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 16 GB

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 ...
...a problem for me because I will choos an album and listen to it in it's entirety. With the screen switched off you can get roughly 20 hours of music from the iPod touch before needing another charge, which is very good. The touch interface is half gimmick, half functionality. At first, it's fun to play around with but really gets to be second nature after a week or so. It's faster to use and get used to than previous iPods, but uses much more of ...

...length to all touchy-feely. Apple has taken the dream music player and turned it into reality. Great, but isn't £279 a lot of money to spend on a 16GB media player? Wouldn't you be better off with an iPod Classic? there's not much in specifications to distinguish it from the other iPods range. You get the usual limited range of music file format support - just AAC, Apple Loss less and MP3 for music and H.264 and MPEG4 files for video. There's no ...

...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 ...
...to older ipods. Yet apple have not used the device to its full potential. However to maximize the features of this device you can "jailbreak" and install a wide range of apps and customizations. This gap may be filled by the yet to be released SDK (software development kit) if apple lets developers offer their applications for free. The ipod touch is a great device and for music, videos and photos it is brilliant, but it could be capable of much ...
