Video iPod = love

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you're considering a first time iPod purchase or an upgrade, it might just be time to take the plunge.
Review: What is it?

The 30 gig "5th Generation" iPod is a thing of beauty.

For those totally unfamiliar with it, the iPod is a media player - meaning it will play sound or video files from an internal hard disk.

iPod Video - A cheat to enjoi

Date of Review:  Mar 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: I'd say, if you don't own one, buy one; unless you're in need of portable video.
Review: Streaming video, crisp pictures, and the long acquired iPod audio quality all rolled into one...

I recently purchased my first iPod and conveniently for me, it was an iPod video. I remember thinking about Apple's iPod previous to my buying...

Bad battery life, proprietary equipment, and expense overshadow a otherwise very good mp3 player

Date of Review:  Apr 18, 2006
The Bottom Line: Average mp3 player that has some extras. Look at other alternatives though that give better battery life and are less proprietary.
Review: I will make the assumption here that everyone is familiar with the iPod and what it is. Apple has done a very good job of marketing this product and in many cases has set the standard in terms of portable mp3 players. Not that I don't think that...

iPod still the King - but the King's got issues

Date of Review:  Aug 19, 2006
The Bottom Line: Music storage, audio books, photographs, what more could you ask for in a portable device. Better battery!!!!!
Review: Apple iPod 30GB

I know you re all sick of hearing this, but the iPod is amazing, undoubtedly one of the finest creations of the 21st century. The genius of the click wheel, the amazing sound quality, and now, the inclusion of video has...

iPod, Old Music, New Technology

Date of Review:  Sep 23, 2006
The Bottom Line: An awesome product, good for anyone who wants to leave the bulky cd player age and have all of their music neatly organized and ready to go wherever they do.
Review: Last October, I was looking for an mp3 player that had enough hard drive space, was easy to use, and was compact. I know several people who have iPod mini's and highly recommended it, so I decided that I would purchase a 30G iPod Video. Upon buying...

Sleek and sexy, but worth it?

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: There are cheaper mp3 players, but this is probably the best overall package.
Review: Note: I've added my thoughts after having the player for 15 months at the bottom.

Perhaps you're looking for an mp3 player for the first time, or intrigued by the prospect of having video on an mp3 player. Is it worth the price premium?...

A step up from the previous gen in some respects... but not in others.

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: Beautiful, easy to use, and with the stats to back it all up- but it's not perfect.
Review: So my previous gen 20GB monochrome iPod gave up the ghost a few weeks ago, and went to that big iPod graveyard in the sky. Lucky for me, I had a service plan at the local big box electronics store, and my replacement was a brand spanking new 30GB...

iPod 30g video is a wonder!

Date of Review:  Dec 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great sound (for a mp3) and the most storage capacity for the money. Buy a case right away though... the unit will scratch if you look at it wrong.
Review: YOU REALLY WANT A MP3 PLAYER? - I just recently was exposed to the 4th generation iPod mp3 player while visiting relatives in Atlanta. My previous experiences with mp3's left me unimpressed with the sound quality of the little compressed mp3 files...

The iPod hype!

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Not recommended for audiophiles or iRiver lovers!
Review: I have to admit, I too was seduced by the iPod. The Hype got to me too.I believed this item would suit all my needs, no matter the high price.

I read reviews and surfed the web. All indications were good. The iPod video had all the...

My favorite Apple iPod

Date of Review:  Jun 22, 2009
The Bottom Line: you can buy it when you have some money,and it is good choice now.
Review: Actually, when I just get it , the iPod classic ,i feel a bit disappointed, after all, Apple's best designs in the iPod classic in fact should not be any breakthrough, it seemed to be somewhat monotonous. And people should take comfort from the...
