Expert Reviews
Expert Rating : Very Good   
Apple has forever kept on increasing the quality and features of its products. It has this seamless ability to beat all its previous records and come up with a yet another improvement in its already best ipods. It is its own competitor. With this attitude it has excelled itself once again, especially with the new nano.

It is a lot more curvaceous than the previous nano. This model looks much more like a miniature version of the iPod Classic. Its corners are rounded, and its edges fade to a sharp edge. It has an anodized aluminum top and polished stainless steel back plate. It is available in five eye-catching colors. It has a larger, brighter display with the highest pixels per inch of any Apple display, ever. iPod nano delivers excellent visual features. Besides it can Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on a single charge. Its wonderful battery life and the 6.5 mm wafer thin profile accelerates Apple's iPod fan base. In order to accommodate it's bigger screen, it's both shorter and wider than the previous nano - 52 x 70 x 6.5mm (WxHxD) to be precise.

In this model, it plays video and that too on a bigger, brighter screen than before. Apple claims that the new screen is 65 per cent brighter than the previous generation's screen. And this is is absolutely true. It looks very attractive. The photos here look vibrant and videos are crisp, sharp and detailed.

You can use the click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, and browse in Cover Flow or you can explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album, song, genre, composer, and more. To enjoy variety you can click Shuffle Songs. iPod nano makes your music look as good as it sounds, with the help of its bright color display.

You can take movies from different sources and you can sync them to your iPod nano to watch anywhere, anytime. You can watch up to 5 hours of video on this ipod. With the playback facility you can watch two movies back to back. And for your viewing pleasure, the 320-by-240-pixel display with a whopping 204 pixels per inch offers 65 percent brighter video than before. With Cover Flow on iPod nano, you can scroll through your music to find the album you want to hear. You can use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, and then you may select an album to flip it over and see the track list. iPod nano has the capacity to hold up to 7,000 photos. You can sync them from your Mac or PC via iTunes.

The extra features in it includes calendars, contacts, world clock, stop watch and a screen lock that appears in the Extras menu, along with a few more handy items.

The product overall is very useful. It is precious as it supports video playback, can output to TV, supports Cover Flow. Besides it is very compact and has a sleek design, bright screen, enhanced user interface and games. The device is talented enough to skip the unnecessary DVD chapters and start right off with the video, in addition it also remembers to start the movie at the point you stopped it the last time.

Its near-doubling of battery life is even more impressive when considering the 65% increase in screen brightness. However battery life tends to be shorter if you frequently skip songs or if you use the backlight for extended periods. This is the smallest-screened media player, adding very good video- and game-playing capabilities to the previously music- and photo-only, popular iPod nano.

It has a built in microphone, with excellent interface. Photos look vibrant and videos are crisp, punchy and detailed. The additional information provided by these new menus makes finding content easier, although if you have a large music library, the two-line-per-track songs list takes longer to scroll through.

In this model the Nano's long, thin stick design has been replaced by a wider, stouter design that accommodates both the generous screen and Apple's signature scroll wheel. And even though this is the smallest video-playing screen, after watching a 90-minute movie on the nano it is a pleasant surprise.

How long you'll want to spend watching a screen this small is although a bit debatable Besides it is worth noting that widescreen footage on the 4:3 screen is eye-squintingly difficult to watch, however the nano makes up for this with its ability to play back footage at up to 30fps, which is easily enough for smooth, viewing.

Pros : Play time, ease of use, fun

Cons : none

 
I have had my Third generation ipod nano since about April 2007 and I have loved every minute. This has been with me on half-marathon, countless 10K and 5K races, and just recently the LED backlight stopped working. I'm not sure what to do about that but the music still plays and I am not ready to let go of my fave gadget!

Hi, I think it is an awful addition to the nano. Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of Audio on a single charge. iTunes provides music, movies, TV shows, games and more. All those features within a wafer-thin. The third generation of the iPod Nano provides loads of entertainment for a down-to-earth price.

the best MP3 player so far

User Guruprasad Jambaulikar - Post Date :28/04/2008

Recommend Product : Yes

Pros : very small and light, tremendous battery life, attractive looks, headphones improved over the earlier ipods

Cons : bit expensive ( though worth it), compulsion over use of itunes, inability to transfer songs from ipod to pc without after market softwares

 
This is one of the best MP3 players released since it has it all-compact and attractive design, tremendous battery life(15 hours playback for songs on playlist), video playback,variants from 2 gb to 8 gb. a general problem with the ipod was bad headphones. the ones provided with the new nano however are much improved and mine have lasted almost 9 months now without problem.games and applications like world clock make it a touch above others too. additional uses like configuring with nike shoes of the ipod series could be of benefit to the health crazy to get important parameters of workout and enjoying music with the correct tempo.not to mention the easy availability of accessories. The only 2 things not working for this one are lack of FM radio and a price higher than lower brands. but then this is apple. a niche product. for me totally worth it.

Try as hard as you like, you cannot deny that Apple has an uncanny ability to keep on making great products. Every time you think it's impossible to make improvements to their iPod music players, along comes another revamp that raises the bar yet again. And with the design and desirability of the latest batch, it has excelled itself once again, especially with the new nano. Unless you've been hiding under a rock for the past week or so, you'll know roughly what it looks like. In order to accommodate the bigger screen, it's both shorter and wider than the previous nano - 52 x 70 x 6.5mm (WxHxD) to be precise. But you don't appreciate how nice a piece of design this really is until you're holding it in your hand. It's also a lot more curvaceous than the previous nano. The corners are rounded, and its edges fade gently away to a sharp edge before the brushed-finish aluminium gives way to a shiny chrome backplate. In fact, it now looks much more like a miniature version of the iPod Classic and that has to be a good thing. The edges are unadorned save for the standard Apple connector (no mini-USB still), hold switch and 3.5mm audio socket on the base. In terms of cutting edge features Apple has been behind the game for some time now. The past year has seen virtually every single other major manufacturer build in some form of video capability into their premium flash memory based players, so it's good to see that this third generation nano has finally caught up. It now plays video, and on a bigger, brighter screen than before. Apple is claiming in typically bullish fashion that the new 2in screen is 65 per cent brighter than the previous generation's screen and I wouldn't be at all surprised to discover this assertion to be accurate; it's a truly lovely thing to look at. Photos look vibrant and videos are crisp, punchy and detailed. How long you'll want to spend watching a screen this small is debatable and it's worth noting that widescreen footage on the 4:3 screen is eye-squintingly difficult to watch, but the nano makes up for this with its ability to play back footage at up to 30fps, which is easily enough for smooth, judder-free viewing.
