iPod Nano (2012)

From it's first release, the iPod nano has undergone many upgrades and changes. The most significant upgrade was adding a touch screen. However, the product was said to be too small for comfort and difficult to handle. The new iPod Nano is the perfect compromise between nano and control.

The iPod Nano is a mere 3.01 inches tall and 1.56 inches wide. However, the awe comes from its thickness at only 5.4 millimeters. It weighs 1.1 ounces, which for its size isn't anything too special. The iPod Nano is encased in Apple's new strong aluminum casing and comes in 7 colors. 

As of right now, Apple has limited the iPod Nano to a 16 Gigabyte version. However, one upgrade Apple installed is the Multi-Touch display (2.5 inches). With this new larger display, the iPod Nano is capable of playing video. One other feature of the iPod Nano is its FM or AM radio installed. 

As far as the external changes, Apple added its infamous home button to the iPod Nano, giving it the same ability as an iPod Touch or iPhone. Also, with its current generation in other products, Apple switched to the new Lightning connector instead of the old connection. The battery life on the new iPod Nano is roughly 3.5 hours of video playback, but a whole 30 hours of music playback. 

Overall, the iPod Nano is a nice gadget to have. It's not bad for its price, however, I would wait until the price drops a little bit. If you're not into the complications of an iPod touch or iPhone, then the iPod Nano is perfect for you.

  1. Hi David!
    Apple is always changing and always releasing newer versions of their products. I enjoyed this blog because it listed the necessary facts for someone who would be interested in buying the product. However I would have liked if you would have included a price. I found that your pictures would be enticing to potential buyers. It would be more help if you included the pros and cons of the product and how it compares to the other lastest and greatest items from Apple.
