Thread: Apple iPod nano

Apple’s iPod touch has the lion isshare of care these days— justifiably so, afforded its capabilities—still until now, the iPod nano has been more consistently greatfrom generation to generation. Beginning with its 2005 debut like an“impossibly thin” color-screened iPod on photo capabilities, thenano has had more nice years as compared to other any other iPod,receiving our high testimonial in 4 of its 5 prior incarnations.


Later the cool but simply scratch-able1^st version, Apple employed colored aluminum for theincreased 2^nd version, plus video and games to the 3^rd version, increased the capacity, body and colors for the 4^th version, and threw in all but the kitchen sink for previous year’s5^th version. As there is been a completely novel iPodnano each year as its introduction, Apple did not require tosubstitute the 5^th -generation model this September — acost drop would have did and made a much more of sense.

Like is its tendency and prerogative,still, Apple thought differently. Instead of dropping the iPodshuffle and letting the iPod nano to become the family’s baby,placing a novel iOS device among the iPod nano and iPod touch, thecompany undertook a radical, hack-and-slash transformation of theiPod nano into a entirely different animal—one that has extremelysmall in common on the previous three devices to bear the same name.


The 6^th -generation iPodnano holds previous year’s prices and storage capacities, butunites iPod shuffle and iPod touch DNA to make a novel device that isjust somewhat larger as compared to the iPod shuffle that survivedtill yet early 2009, with just a centimeter of additional height toaccommodate a 1.25” square touchscreen.


Unlike the six-year-oldcontest-winning concept rendering that likely adjust this plan inmotion, the novel nano feels as it is running a limited version ofApple’s iOS operating system, but actually is applying an update tothe same operating system that has powered past iPod nano and classicmodels. Updated October 2011: Apple reduced the price of the iPodnano to 8GB and 16GBon October 4, 2011, and updated the software toversion 1.2. We have upgraded this review with a novel 9^th page of details, and a novel rating.
