APPLE 80GB CLASSIC

Advantages: YOUR FAVOURITE MOVIES AND COMPLETE ALBUM COLLECTION IN YOUR POCKET
Disadvantages: SOUND LEVEL ON MOVIES NOT GREAT

...I bought my Ipod Classic around a month ago to basically be able to carry all my albums round with me at all times and have a couple of my favourite movies to hand if I am ever bored. I used to have an Ipod Nano and thought that 2 GB of memory would be plenty for what I needed but soon found that I couldn't fit no way near half of my albums on there and had to cherry pick my favourite songs due to there being not enough space available. Now having 80GB it's surprising how much you can actually fit on it. I currently have around 15 movies, a season of lost and over a 100 albums and am still well under 30GB. It's unbelievable. Unless you would like to put all your movie collection on to your Ipod then I can definitely assure you that an 80GB capacity would more than cover your requirements. The Ipod has a great new feature...

Ipod Classic 80gb

Advantages: Incredible memory and looks
Disadvantages: possibly too much memory?

...This is probably my most treasured possession. With the size of the memory, you can store more pictures, music and videos than you could ever possibly need. A pro and a con there... If your not going to fill up 80gb, i wouldn't recommend buying this ipod. At the moment i have nearly 6000 songs, and 9 (approx. 1 hour length) videos stored on my ipod classic, and still have 47.3 GB space free. If you can fill it, it's incredible value for money. If you can't, it seems a little pointless. It's very easy to use, you can make playlists on the go, the games are extraordinarily fun- not something i'd normally think about, but the ipod version of solitaire has kept me amused on many a train journey. The battery life is very good, as long as you don't continuously fiddle. The alarm is good... but has failed to wake me (a deep sleeper) up...

bravo apple team! apple ipod classic 80GB

Advantages: great quality.
Disadvantages: expensive

...WOW! The 80gb ipod classic is by far the best portable music player i've ever had! not only does it look great, you can store up to about 9000 songs on this beast! despite the fact it looks rather big and hefty, its actually quite light and you tend not to notice it in your pocket untill you dip in to find some loose change. the sound quality on it is amazing. you can get all sorts of equalizers for more bass, more treble, etc... to find the perfect sound for the song you are listening to. the only thing i would say is bad about the ipod classic is the touch pad, sometimes this can get stuck or it wont sense your fingers, so it can get abit annoying trying to scan your whole archive of music when youre struggling to get from the a's to z's! The headphones! if you really want to get the best out of your ipod classic then change...

Ipod Classic 80GB

Advantages: Very Easy to use
Disadvantages: Unresponsive scroll wheel

...I decided to buy the Ipod classic so I could use it watch movies for when i went on holiday. First impressions where great, I loved the sleaker new design from the case even to the USB lead. The music quiz is a great improvement from the previouse model it's like a game show. The Ipod is easy to use as always no problems with putting music on there and no problems with movies. The movies themselves are of great quality and handy on long journeys to watch. The battery also lasts a long time if you charge it for long enough when you first get it but I found if you are watching a movie on it then reduce the brightness so the battery lasts that bit longer. The one major problem I had was the lack of response from the scroll wheel. A lot of the time it doesn't respond at all and then shoots all the way past the song you...

All you need to know about the Ipod Classic 80gb

Advantages: Too many to list... just read the review
Disadvantages: Barely any, maybe the screen is a tad small

...for the ipod. I have bought an ipod comaptible JVC mini system so i can listen to my music out loud, which also handily charges it when docked - but this is for another review!! In general the ipod classic has been refined and perfected from its 5th gen cousin and i would highly recommend it, and all this for less than £140, its a downright steal!!...

iPod Classic truthful review

Advantages: Easy navigation, clear large screen, huge capacity, great looking, excellent value for money
Disadvantages: iTunes a little annoying, dodgy earphones

...**UPDATE** After having this iPod for 18 months now, I thought I'd update my review as parts of it are no longer true. This review was updated 22.07.09 :-) ** UPDATE** I'll have owned my iPod Classic for two years when December comes, so at the end of this review I'll give you an update on how it's running almost 24 months after it was first purchased. I was hesitant about buying an iPod as my first, an iPod mini a few years ago, broke and never mended itself as soon as I bought it. It was sent back and I've been using other (decent) players since. But iPods are so popular I decided to give them another shot and, truthfully, am very pleased that I did. After using a perfectly good Samsung YP-Z5A 4GB Mp3 player, I was bought the iPod Classic 80GB (in black) for a Christmas present. Firstly, I would order it off the official...

Apple Ipod 80GB

Advantages: Big memory, not heavy in weight, long battery life
Disadvantages: None that I can see

...I purchased an Ipod classic and I must say that it is one of the best purchases I have made. It has a massive memory and easy to use with iTunes. Movies, TV programmes, music and photos, everything is on mine and it is so easy to add and take off things you don't require for a while. I have 80GB and I have 600 photos, 520 songs and 60 movies on it and I still have 40GB to go. Absolutely brilliant, my friend has just bought a 160GB and it is so easy to use he doesn't need my instruction to use it for the first time. With a large compacity this is certainly one for all generations and is great if you are travelling because you can take advantage of the long life battery and watch films, tv or listen to music while you travel....

ipod classic-honest view

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: bit slow, not as attractive as the touch

...i bought this ipod because of its memory , its a great investment if your on a limited budget. when i opened the box it looked great and felt heavier than a nano for obvious reasons but is satisfactory for carrying around if 80gb is what you are after. it is better than the shiny versions as this matt version prevents horid fingerprint marks. thescreen is a lot more scrth resistant to the older version of ipods but i've always kept a screen protector on mine. So many people on the net complain about the volume nt being enough but then again the ipod headphnoes aren't exactly great now are they/ if you were to buy JVC gummy earphones of just the cheap £3 in-ear ones from ebay you'll realise that there is a vast volume difference. even with the ipod earphones the volume isn't so bad (i walk to skool with those and i walk past a busy main...

Ipod Classic review

Advantages: It feels so expensive and it looks gorgous
Disadvantages: Your finger prints will get all over the mirrored back

...This is my 5th portable music player and let me just say it is my last. My Ipod Classic is so good I dont think I will ever need to buy another portable music player. No matter how big your libary is you will have plenty of room with the Ipod Classic and if you have access to the internet you will never have to worry about it getting old either because there are regular update's. The Ipod Dose not support WMA so make sure the music you curently have is mp3. The Ipod classic can play films, games and music. It also has a full colour screen and a gorgous body. It feels so expensive it even has a mirriored back. When you hold the Ipod classic in your hand you will feel so proud....

Review of Apple iPod classic 80 GB

Its a classic!

Advantages: Lots more improvements with a lower cost!
Disadvantages: itunes not included

...a music player, Its a media player. You can store photos, music videos, tv shows, movies and of course music (with its artwork). And with 80 GB you'll have trouble trying to fill it up! A cool little feature is "Cover Flow" which lets you flick though the artwork of each album kinda like a jukebox makes looking for a song easier and quicker then before just by running your finger along the click wheel. The only disadvantage i found is that you have to download itunes which is fine but others without the internet may find this a major hurdle. Features: # PC and Mac compatible # Completely skip-free playback # 40 hours of continuous play (audio) from a 3-hour charge; 1.5-hour fast charge to 80% capacity # Autosync your entire iTunes library # Create playlists and rate songs # Shuffle songs or albums # Customise menus # Store...
