Apple iPod classic 80 GB Black (6th Generation)

The iPod arrived very quickly - no delays in shipment. The iPod is exactly as it is described on the site. It works perfectly, does not malfunction, and has a very good battery life. (I have not yet watched videos on it, so the battery life refers only in regards to music). This product does not come with a car adapter, that has to be purchased separately. I have no complaints.

I bought this item one month back. And I am happy about it. Sound quality is very good. And the navigators are very smooth. Battery quality is also good and after full charge I can listen to music for 40 above hours. This is my first iPOD and I am loving it.

I purchased this ipod recently and my first impression was that it looked uber cool! The metal encasing seems tough and more scratch resistant than previous models. I might add that it was also very nice that it came fully charged :-).

Onto sound quality. So far I have been rather impressed with the sound quality; when I compared the ipod to a zune and a samsung mp3 using the same earphones, i found the ipod slightly clearer. I would reccomend replaceing the earbuds with sennheiser px200s though, because the standard earbuds are a bit muddy, uncomfortable, and they dont match my ipod! :-)

Screen quality is tremendous, it is nice to have an extra .5 inch over a nano, and it makes videos more enjoyable to watch.

There are also a few unique funcions I find helpful and interesting. First, the coverflow feature is my favorite! I also found it nice that when you pull out your earphones, the music will pause automatically. How smart! Also, I like the added stopwatch feature and the ability to adjust all of the setings. The only thing I wish could also be adjusted is the sensitiveity (pardon my spelling :-}) of the click wheel, but it hardly matters.

The 80 GB has plenty of storage, my laptop wont be able to keep up! I actually wish it held like only 50 gig because that might reduce the cost :-). It is nice though, to be able to put on all my pics, flix, and songs on it. The battery life is great, I haven't had to charge it after listening to if for like 8 hours and it is still almost full. In fact I did a little research and the batery can last up to 40 hours (if the back light is mostly off and you only listen to songs). That is the best of any ipod.

Overall i am very impressed and would highly reccomend it. I hope this review helps you decide on a great product!

I have been an Ipod junkie since it's inception. I bought the 80gig because I have such a vast collection of music that I could no longer fit it it all on my 8. der. Anyways, I have had nothing but a great experience with my little bundle of joy. It's fast, music sounds great, no problems with movies, TV shows, videos, it's all good.

It did, however, lock up once due to accidentally dropping it, but after holding the center wheel down, it was just fine.

Movies, Videos, TV Shows, Podcasts: When I first downloaded a movie, I thought I would have problems viewing it, or the screen would be too small. But it was not only a perfect size, but the graphics were great. Videos, podcasts, shows, all good.

Games: I have no problems with games. Just be sure you read the compatibility requirements before you buy any games. Which they do tell you on Itunes.

Wheel is fast, almost too fast. But I chalk that up to user to Ipod malfunction.

The only thing I would have to complain about is the actual speed in which syncing is done. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow, but that actually has nothing to do with Ipod and merely the computer.

Someone wrote that they are having issues listening to their Ipod while charging. I would return it. There should be no issues with that unless it is syncing.

Overall, I am very pleased with my Ipod.

My son also has the same Ipod, and I have to say, it's pretty tough. I have had to buy him a metal case, but this kid has dropped his pod so many times, I am surprised it works as well as it does.

Kudos to Apple for making it thick skinned.

Purchased the Apple iPod classic 80 GB Black (6th Generation) online and was a super purchase. I could not believe how quickly I received it too.
