Apple Apple iPod nano, 8GB (Charcoal)

Redesigned for music and Multi-Touch, the sixth generation Apple iPod nano, in 8GB or 16GB, is smaller and lighter than ever, and is so much more than just an MP3 player. You can clip it to your sleeve, jacket, or running shorts and keep your favorite songs at your fingertips — along with the Genius feature, a built-in FM radio, pedometer, and more. And the anodized aluminum finish in six bright colors makes this new Apple iPod nano player even more brilliant.

* Bought the watchband and turned it into a watch. Like this...there are several faces to choose from.
* Wish the nano didn't go into sleep mode while I'm working out and using the Nike app.
* Don't need an armband while I run! Yay!
* Pretty close to my Garmin GPS.

Exceeds my expectations. Yes, buy it! Only one thing, the Apple Nano will not work with Windows Media Player. You have to use ITunes in order to use it. That means you have to download all of your music to I-Tunes before you can use this.

I thought as an Apple product (the first I ever purchased), the iPod nano would be a very efficient and reliable player, however, I have found it not very user-friendly. There are times where it has frozen on me, and I cannot do anything to access my music (the screen and time freezes), and the only solution is to let the battery run dead and hope that the iPod "wakes" up. Then there are other times when the icons "shake" and nothing works either. Turning the nano on and off are not that easy either when it comes to trying to solve these problems. Also, please note that trying to transfer music from one computer to another can be problematic, especially if you have downloads from sources other than the Apple store. It was a lot of money, and it will be interesting to see how long this expensive product lasts. Sometimes I think just listening to my cheap walkman radio is better; that has lasted for years.

Aside from the "voiceover" feature this is sensitive, the screen shuts down and you need to start all over due to "not tapping" the next arrow properly..........attempting to jump or just skip is annoying I guess I miss the wheel! The touch screen was a cute idea but too small to actually work for the $ you spend!

Some of the apple nano accessories are not of high quality and yet are somewhat expensive. The screen protector should really be sold together with the nano, even a courtesy sheet would be nice. The nano ipod is really great and meets my expectations. Thank you.

I've had several problems with this Nano. Recently it wouldn't produce any sound from a playlist, though it had worked previously. After trying all the recommendations online, which did nothing to solve it, I finally talked to a friend who through trial and error found that the playlist had somehow become corrupted. After removing it and reloading it, it worked. I just wish the thing would work without all the problems.

I usually purchase cheaper MP3 players just to use at the gym but decided to upgrade to an actual Ipod this time around so i would have the ability to stroll and select playlists and this item did not disappoint. I love this IPod and i actually listen to my music more than i did when i had the cheaper MP3 players thanks to the ability to stroll my songs and create playlists. At first the instructions were a little daunting but once i figured it out and that i was overthinking it, the product became a breeze to operate and i love listening to it at home, at the gym and in my car. I highly recommend this nano. It's small but it's worth it and i love the clip that allows me to attach it to my pockets or pants.

I have had iPod Nanos forever and this one is just not up to my expectations. I do not like the way the Nike Plus feature works at all. The iPod is very sensitive to the touch and I just do not like that feature at all. I wish that my 5th Generation had not broken.

I love to be able to clip this onto my clothing instead of having to find an armband. I am amazed at how small it is and it has twice the capacity of my old nano.

I bought this Nano for my 11 year old son. It was easy to use, and he immediately was able to find all the nifty little features. The ear buds are good quality and comfortable-- so we don't need to upgrade. He literally has 800 songs on the iPod and there is room for more. We can recharge it on the USB connection to the computer, but I would rather have a plug in recharger, so we will invest in a wall recharger.
