The newborn 160GB iPod Classic is easily Apple Inc.’s prizewinning iPod to date, and discover of every of the iPods that I own, this is my favorite.

First, the power of this iPod is exclusive unbeatable. I’ve ease to wager added takeout media contestant that crapper correct the iPod Classic in capacity. I hit a Brobdingnagian penalization library, and it’s pleasant to be healthy to circularize every strain that I possess on my mortal at every times. What’s more, thanks to the iPod Classic’s capacity, I also hit shack to circularize a whatever videos with me, and whatever of my photos. If you don’t same having to garner which songs to alluviation onto your takeout media player, the iPod Classic is the artefact to go.

The ordinal abstract that I fuck most this iPod crapper be summed up in digit words: it works. The 160GB iPod Classic that was introduced in 2007 was extremely buggy, had a non-responsive Clickwheel on some units, crashed frequently, and required a hit-and-miss code update to kibosh the hornlike intend from agitated modify when the figure was “off,” which ofttimes advance to departed batteries. All of these problems mitt the 2007 160GB iPod Classic hot shelves and earning it the disreputable “honor” of existence the “worst commerce iPod ever,” according to Apple. I’m entertained to feature that the newborn 160GB iPod Classic free early this period has virtually hour of these problems. There’s no “spinning hornlike intend bug,” the Clickwheel is unbelievably responsive, and the figure isn’t crash-prone. While it’s genuine that some of these issues were immobile with terminal year’s iPod Classic, there hasn’t been a genuinely useful 160GB help until now. To place it bluntly, this is the iPod that Apple should’ve free in 2007.

Another abstract that I rattling same most this iPod, and the iPod Classic in general, is it’s knowledge to threefold as an outside hornlike drive. While I conceive that the iPod Nano is also confident of this, the exclusive iPod that rattling has sufficiency expanse to duty as an outside hornlike intend is the iPod Classic. The hornlike intend functionality confessedly reduces the sort of devices I hit to circularize on me at some presented time. If you regularly impact with super files and are considering a newborn iPod, the iPod Classic is the artefact to go, stark and simple.

So what are the caveats? Well for starters, as with every another iPod Classic, this is a hard-drive (rather than flash-memory) supported device. As a result, it has agitated parts which attain it inappropriate for streaming or some fleshly state that exerts machinelike damper onto the iPod. Unless you training constantly with your iPod though, this rattling shouldn’t be an issue. The exclusive another caveat, which is more of individualized discernment than an actualised flaw, that I crapper find, is that Apple has not prefabricated some aesthetical changes to this figure since they introduced it in 2007. Now don’t intend me wrong, the saucer of an iPod “Classic,” is to keep the “Classic” design, but after sight how such meliorate a black Clickwheel looks on the grayness iPod Nano, I’d hit intellection that Apple would hit presented the grayness iPod Classic a black Clickwheel as well. However, I adjudge that this is every my individualized alternative and not a “flaw” per se. I’ve place a hurried itemize of pros and cons together, which crapper be seen below:

Pros: Largest iPod Capacity-wise, daylong shelling life, “Genius” feature, superior continuance for your money, well-built, doubles as an outside hornlike drive, and improvements to Cover Flow.

Cons: Hard Drive (rather than Flash memory) supported hardware medium; figure is cosmetically same to the 2007 80GB model. (I ease don’t see ground Apple hasn’t blackamoor the Clickwheel black on the grayness help to correct the iPod Nano.)

Finally, I would highly propose this product, which is ground it gets fivesome stars from me. I don’t same the iPod Nano; it’s likewise diminutive for my hands, and the concealment is likewise diminutive for my eyes. While the iPod Touch haw hit app accumulation admittance and Wi-Fi, I encounter it to be a rattling gimmicky device, that makes for a slummy takeout media player, (Apple was owlish to function it as a handheld mettlesome system,) and is rattling an “iPhone without a phone.” In contrast, the iPod Classic is an superior takeout media player, it has an superior interface, and it exclusive costs $249 dollars. To place things in perspective, the 2009 160GB iPod Classic costs $70 dollars more than a 16GB iPod Nano, and $150 dollars inferior than a 64GB iPod Touch. All in all, I highly propose this product.
