iTouch

Advantages: Brilliant
Disadvantages: Nono

...I am not going toi pretend that I can inform you of everythng there is to know on the iPod Touch, they are so extensive in there functions i think it would just be boring you anyway! Let me start from the beginnning, I saved up for the christmas just gone, and i wanted to buy my two younger brothers something which they would really appreciate and enjoy. A friend said why don't i buy them one of these, now don't get me wrong, i know what an iPod is, but i had no idea about an iTouch, therefore I was reluctant to spend £170 each on them. When I first saw them, I was a little disappointed, I would have thought that Apple would offer you some inclusive accessories with the £170 iPod that you are buying, but really i was just a black thing in a small clear case. On inspection of the item i realised that it is a very smart and very...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

the apple of my "I"

Advantages: touch screen, lightweight, good battery life
Disadvantages: possibility of getting the screen or the shiny back scratched

...I purchased this product in November 2008, as a Christmas present for my fiancé. She had hinted at getting a new ipod, as her previous one was the 2 GB ipod nano from a few years back. I walked into the apple shop that had recently opened up in Belfast, surrounded by the whole apple range I looked at a couple different models from the new 8 GB nano to the ipod classic. But my eyes finally came to a halt upon the shiny surface of the 8 GB ipod touch. I knew instantly that this was the present that I was to buy her. So I went to the counter, the cashier asked me what I wanted and I placed my order, at which point he turned his back to me and started looking through some drawers, a few seconds later he turned around and handed me a very small rectangular box with curved edges. Hmmm, I thought to myself, it?s rather small? so I handed...

iTouch!

Advantages: Packed with applications, very handy and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Keyboard is hard to use, no flash player and not very durable without a case.

...If it was not for the fact that I needed more than 16GB at the time of buying my 160GB iPod Classic, I would've bought one of these. Obviously now, there is the 32GB iPod Touch, but this is still not enough. The iPod touch therefore is for people who have some money to spend and just want to put their CD's onto the iPod. It is packed with features and in essence is a PDA without the office applications. It comes pre-loaded with Safari (Apple's own web browser), the iTunes store, built in iPod, a special YouTube application for viewing Youtube videos and many other features. Firstly, while I'm thinking about it, the iPod touch doesn't come with a flash player, which is the reason why there's a special YouTube application. This means that when browsing safari, you can't watch embedded video clips or clips off other video sharing sites...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

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...

Review of Apple iPod classic 80 GB

Touch like an iPod

Advantages: Quality is brilliant and all the functions are Useful
Disadvantages: Fingerprints and Scratches

...anyone. The looks are exquisite but I think more thought is needed for the functionality of the reverse as it scratches so easily. Durability I haven't dropped it yet as I'm really overprotective of it but it scratches very easily on the back and also traps finger prints on the screen. I also think that the touch screen is liable to go wrong and it controls the iPod so that if this breaks the whole iPod stops functioning. Ease of using iTunes This was the next thing that I did when I got my iPod, it includes Quick Time but I think that the iPod needs to come with a CD rather than having to download it. I think that the interface is really good and it now uses the internet to get all of the album details into your computer which makes it very easy to add more music. The iTunes store is now a great deal better and means that podcasts...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

  iPod Touch 8GB

Advantages: intuitive, stylish, fun, great music player, variety of features, internet function
Disadvantages: fingerprints! no camera, no built in speakers, only available in black currently

... 8GB iPod Touch As my boyfriend's birthday approached, I was panicking as to what to get him as men are a nightmare to shop for and I really wanted to get something exciting. I noticed that he kept borrowing my ipod nano and initially planned to get him one of his own but on the Apple website I saw the ipod touch and worked out that if I got him that then I could steal it and use it! From the Apple website, the 8GB iPod Touch cost me £199 with free postage and packing and a free optional engraving. I thought this was a reasonable price it was nice and simple to order it online. I chose the free engraving option and this enabled me to have a two line engraving on the back (top centre) of the ipod. Obviously, it is a very good idea to check your spelling at this point as the ipod cannot be returned due your mistakes when...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

iPod Touch

Advantages: Awesome & complex iPod yet.
Disadvantages: The size of iPod.

...When iPod Touch was first released in the UK in October last year, and with my savings, I purchased the iPod. On the Apple website, it cost £199.00 with free packaging, delivery and an optional engraving, so I thought the price was very reasonable, especially for a very complex gadget like iPod Touch. I never had an iPod before so I was excited to receive my iPod in the post. The first thing I had to do was to plug the iPod onto my laptop, so it would start charging. For those who doesn't have iTunes on their computer, you will need to download the program however I can remember a pop-up appearing to tell me to install iTunes. For a while, when the iPod was charging, I had a little fiddle around to see what the iPod was like, and it certainly didn't disappoint me! iPod Touch contains 8GB storage which you can include music, videos...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

I thought I killed you?...

Advantages: Good Graphics, Guns and general roaming space.
Disadvantages: Repetitive missions and poor online play.

...Okay, I admit I have only completed a couple of missions or so but I believe I can still give a good review. Just like everyone else I was eagerly awaiting the release of Gta's first "next gen" adventure. Preordered off Amazon and it came on release day. The story is about a Serbian/Polish/Russian immigrant who is trying to make it "big" in America with his brother Roman. However Roman has many gambling debts and soon finds himself in a lot of trouble. The graphics are good, but not great. I don't know how to explain it but they seem "fuzzy". When under bridges and motorways it is near pitch black and when it is dark on the ground the sky is blue? Granted, so far I have not seen the same pedestrian twice, but I have heard different peoploe talk about the same things. The cars are nicely polished, however, there are too many...

Review of Grand Theft Auto 4 (PS3)

iPod touch

Advantages: Good music player, good apps
Disadvantages: only 7.01gb. can only fit 1100 songs

...This is the best gadget i own, it combines decent mini games, music and social networking in one easy package. It has made using facebook alot easier, so i don't have to tun on my laptop every time i want to check it. true, the app for facebook closes down when i try to chat with some people, but thats the only hitch. along with e-buddy its the best facebook mobile out there. The mini games are quite good, but not worth buying the ipod purely for them though. many games are free, but the best ones cost about 60p to £2. i would recommend pocket god, which is addictive. then theres the music player, which is as good as any ipod out there. the reason why i give it only 4 stars is because whilst it claims it can fit 1750 songs on it you would be able to get at most about 1100 songs on it without any apps on the device as well. also it...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

iPod Touch

Advantages: Very cool and sexy, Packed with features, Good sound quality through headphones,
Disadvantages: Built in speaker quality, battery when online, durability, and price (but its Apple so y'know :) )

...First thing is first. With any Apple product you know it will be very expensive, very cool and pretty simple to use. I have been an Apple fan for a while and have have an iPod mini (4gb), iPod video (30gb) and now my iPod touch (as well as a Mac mini =] ). If you are wanting an MP3 player that will just play your music then you may be put off the iPod touch as for the same price you can have a considerably bigger music player. However the Album Art scrolling feature- known as Cover Flow make it more interesting, and there is nothing more fun than scrolling through your albums with your fingers! However this is a lot more than an MP3 player. Although it will hold 2000 songs or tonnes of videos it also has a lot more features built in. With its built in Wi-Fi you are able to use Safari to surf the internet. In my experience the internet...
