Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Apple iPod nano 2 GB Black (1st Generation) OLD MODELCustomer Review: Awesome ! Summary: 5 Stars
I just received my ipod nano about two weeks ago (or so). I was really debating whether or not I really wanted/needed one. I absolutely *love it*. I couldn't believe how small it actually was. You read the reviews and see the pictures online, but it's nothing until you actually hold it in your hands. It's tiny, but the clickwheel is still very easily accessible and easy to use.
I bought the 2GB nano because 500 songs is *plenty* for me. I've uploaded all the songs I wanted from my CD collection and I have plenty of space left on my nano. I could never fill up 4GB, and even if I could, do I REALLY need more than 500 songs? Nope!
Like everyone else I read the amazon.com reviews about the ipod nano black, because that was my color preference. Everything I read said NOT to get the black nano, but being the rebel I am, I did it anyway. It's GREAT. Very stylish. And as for the "scratching easily", I've kept the plastic cover on the ipod, and it won't come off until my cases that I've just ordered arrive. My nano is scratch-free and beautiful.
Another tip? If you order from Apple.com and you're a student, you can get the ipod nano for $180 with free shipping AND free engraving. I love having my name engraved on the back- that was a bonus. Otherwise, I've ordered tons of things off Amazon and they are reliable and quick.
Hope this helped! :)
Customer Review: Most Useful Thing I Have Ever Bought Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is so amazing here is a list of some of the amazing things about it:
1)It's so small: It can be concealed so easily
2)It can do so many things: It can hold 500 songs and it can show you all of the song's CD cover pictures along with the lyrics. What else do u need to know about the song?
3)The calendar feature is AMAZING: It will automatically upload your Microsoft OutlookŪ calendar to your Ipod. So you can make a little alarm go off 15 minutes+ before your calendar event. So now i'm never late for tests, meetings, and due dates.
4)If I'm ever bored watching a lame movie for extra credit i can just put on my ipod, listen to some music, and play some games with it. Nobody will even notice you doing it because it's so small. PERFECT!
5)You can also upload COLOR photo's to it from your computer! And make little slideshows on it! AMAZING!
6)Also you can upload .txt files to the "Notes" folder in your ipod which can be helpful in many ways.
7)Many other features in this Ipod help me SO MUCH in everyday life.
One bad thing i've heard about Ipod Nanos is that it can be scratched easily...So when i bought mine, I also bought a little leather case with it and i've had my Ipod for over a month now and it is in PERFECT condition!
EVERYBODY should have an Ipod Nano, it makes life OH SO MUCH more entertaining! BUY IT! IT'S GREAT!
Customer Review: Do you research! Summary: 3 Stars
Yeah apple for coming out with a bigger flash drive! I give them complete kudos for teaming up with Samsung on this! Anyways...that said...I still think that it lacks some features that are available in other models that are not apple! I think that I would still tell customers that really want a sports model that the shuffle still is a better way to go! I work in the retail industry (MP3) and have seen several broken screens already...and a couple screen where half the screen goes out! That said if you are still wanting a NANO please with it also imediately get a protective case, and I would reccomended Apples additional insurance on it! They sell it for 2 years for 59.00! That being said invest in it...The battery is a internal lithium ion battery, and is roughly good for a year to a year and a half.... if it goes out on you APPLE charges about 100+ dollars to fix it! I have seen them go out as early as three months from my customers! Nothing would be worse then getting stuck six months into being the proud new parent of a IPOD with a huge service bill from APPLE to get the now exspensive hunk of junk running again...EVEN if you don't buy it from APPLE lots of retailers offer service plans on them SO DO YOUR RESEARCH! SO you don't become one of the many disenchanted ipod owners I have met....Do your research, and don't be a I-sheep!
Customer Review: Great Product! Great Sound! Likes to smudge! Summary: 5 Stars
I'm bought this item, opened it (nice box) and there it was, this little... "Thing". The Ipod Nano is a very good mp3 player. Music, Games, Pictures. Its great! That cool little clickwheel can be a little sensitive from time to time. No big deal. Ihated carrying around a cd player, and tons of cd's. This is so much easier, especially for me going back and forth from school. Nice color screen, extremely thin, and looks great. But be aware, as soon as you admire the beauty look at the back. The Metalic back would work great for the police and CSI. This thing attracts smudges and finger prints like a light attracts bugs! Get a cleaning cloth, then buy a skin or a case! I havent seen any scratches... yet. You can notice it less on the white version. The black is still the coolest because it sets apart from the other white ones... it makes it uniqe. Sound Quality is great! There is definatly bass.
Pros:
Great sound
Looks great
Nice black color
Metalic Back
Games, something fun to do
Cool click wheel
Nice color screen
Cons:
SMUDGES LIKE CRAZY!
(just buy a skin or case)
other than that no problems.
Great product for people on the go and don't want to spend $400 on a Ipod Video, and don't need the extra features, just music.
BUY!
Customer Review: Geez, how did they make it so small? Summary: 5 Stars
This is just incredibly small! I upgraded (or downgraded, depending on how you look at it) from a 4th Gen. 20GB iPod and the first thing that pleased me was that I can easily carry this in my pocket. Very easily; I can even keep my cell phone and iPod in the same pocket without squeezing either one in. As for features, this is my first color screen iPod, so I liked the color display along with the album art. You can keep photos also, but the screen is awfully tiny to really view them comfortably. The case I'm using with my iPod is the Agent 18 shield, which is basically a clear plastic shell that encases the iPod. It's one of the cheapest cases you can buy, but it works very well. I would recommend that, as iPods (especially the BLACK ones) are prone to scratching. My only BIG complaint as a long-time iPod user is that Apple no longer supplies the AC adapter as standard; it's a $29 addition. I didn't mind Apple ditching the remote and dock as standard accessories earlier, but I wish they didn't ditch the AC adapter as well. It would be better to have included the adapter instead of the cheap worthless "case". Overall, it's a very functional iPod. Now I'm waiting for Apple to come out with a video iPod that runs on flash memory instead of a hard drive; that certainly will be my next iPod after this one.
