ipod touch review

Advantages: Attractive, easy to use touch screen and applications
Disadvantages: Expensive and the headphones are not very durable

...In my opinion the iPod touch is the best in the MP3 player category. With features such as the applications and album artwork it is much more than just a music playing device. However, I would recommend most music listeners to go for a higher memory option. The headphones are not very durable however, and are expensive to replace. That s one drawback of the iPod, all the accessories and software updates tend to be expensive. With the accessories it may be best to look elsewhere than the official Apple products as there are good alternatives. Unless you want a simple music player, in which case I would recommend the iPod shuffle, I think this easily beats the competition in attractiveness and, like most Apple products, just being cool! Its is not the cheapest in its category, but I think it is without a doubt the best....

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

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...

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...

Apple's best ipod yet!

Advantages: Massive range of cool apps and features avaliable
Disadvantages: Needs careful looking after to avoid damage

...I got my 8GB ipod touch for christmas and its been great every since day one! It came with a cool leather case to protect the beautiful shiny backplate that it has (so easily scratched its incredible!) It feels really nice in your hands and is just so easy and simple to use. It works using a touch screen system and only two main buttons. One for turning it on and off and one is the home button which is used to close appications and return to the homepage. One of the best features of the 2nd gen touch is the WIFI connection. I connected it to my homehub router in seconds and then was able to use apples pre-installed web browser safari, which i was very impressed by. Using the WIFI connection also allows you to check your e-mails from a variety of sources ( but sadly no hotmail link ) and access the itunes store and appstore like...

Ipod Touch 8Gb with engraving

Advantages: All the features of the iphone but without the massive price tag
Disadvantages: battery life could be better

...--Background-- I bought the iPod touch for my son for his 10th birthday. Before he alerted me to the item I knew nothing at all about it. Having played around with it for a few hours, I can now see what all the fuss is about as this item is so addictive. The touch comes in 3 guises, namely 8Gb, 16Gb and 32Gb versions. These are all identical apart from, obviously the storage capacity. --In the box-- I must admit that then the box came, I thought half the order had been missed as it is minute! Along with the ipod itself, you get the headphones, a usb to pc charger and a quick setup guide. Although this seem very little, it is actually enough to get you up and running in next to no time. As we bought this direct from the Apple store we were entitlted to free engraving on the back of the device. We took the decision to have his...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

The best iPod!

Advantages: Easy to use with many features
Disadvantages: Not as good as 2nd gen ipod touch

...I have had this product for a number of months and have had no problems with it. I love music and the internet so this product is the best product for me at the moment. I think it is better with the new software update wich i recently purchased to enhance my ipod experience. The 2nd generation ipod touches come with this already but for those who have the first gen ipod toch it is by far better with the latest software. Many applications can be added such as games to make the ipod touch the all time best MP3 player and also ipod going. Everyhting is so easy to use with everyhting laid out in such an easy manner. The music section also has a list of the alphabet on the side. To select a track in your long list of tracks simply click on the letter it starts with and the tracks beginnig with that letter appear on the screen. the album art...

  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...

Touch like an iPod

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

...Apple IPod Touch 8GB Apple has always been the forerunner in the field of MP3 players. I bought my first iPod 3 years ago, the iPod 4 GB mini, I was quite pleased at first but after a while the battery stopped working, but it remains to be seen whether or not this is the case with the Touch. I spent quite a while looking around for the best price, in the end I opted for eBay! I now think that I should've waited for the right one to come around, I chose to buy a new one for £150. However, when I looked at the Apple website they were £199 so I saved £50 which was worth the risk on eBay as it often is. I also bought a case and an i-trip.

ipod touch - wow

Advantages: wide, touch screen
Disadvantages: keyboard difficulty if any

...Wow. Touch meets iPod, a perfect combination! the 3.5 inch screen is beautiful, the sound quality is excellent as usual, and it is surprisingly light. The internet is virtually full as normal, with the exception of games. The keyboard is difficult at first, but this is a minor setback. the youtube video player utilises the widescreen excellently, complimented by the perfect sound quality. If jailbroken, games and other application are available. In my opinion 8GB is enough storage, but if you have thousands of tracks or several series of videos, then you may be better to choose the 16 or even new 32GB ipod touch. It evens allows me to do this review on it! An excellent iPod, definitely worth the £200 rrp....
