Apple iPod classic 160 GB Black (7th Generation) NEWEST MODEL

This is my first ipod. I've had other MP3 players before because the ipod is admittedly much more expensive. I've had this product for a few months and I love it. It is very easy to sync to the computer, very easy to charge and to organize playlists and files. The sounds quality is great. Definitely a great investment! No more of the frustrations , that I had with other MP3 players.

I bought this one for a friend. It's nice, works good, but the one thing I hate about Ipods is the fact you have to use Itunes to upload the music. Good product, though.

HI:
I really liked the apple classic at first because of its giant storage space. 160 gb!! Wow!!!
but little did I know that I would only last me 6 months.....

THe apple classic has moving parts in it, so when you drop it....it really breaks easily. YOu can never drop it....!!!! at least you should never drop it...I did not buy a case for it, leather or plastic and was using it as is. I never dropped it intentionally, but I did remember dropping it 2 -3 times. It broke after 6 mo nths of use, and I was very disappointed. You need to buy a case for it, as it easily breaks after y ou drop it, and is not durable.

Fixing it would cost about $200. I phoned apple about it, and that's what they said.

THe Sound quality was good, syncing was easy....everything was great , but it is not durable~!!! It breaks easily, and you can't run around with it in your pocket....It's way too heavy, and bulky.
If you intend to use it around the house, and have to move around.....Please don't get this.
It's not that small, and it is quite heavy and you could easily drop it. Dropping it could sabotage it's life, and actually will sabotage it's life, because it has moving parts in it.

Sony mp3 players, or the IPod NANo are better because they use the flash drive media and that makes no moving parts in them.... it fares better when you drop them or conk them on something hard.
THey are more durable and smaller/ not to say lighter.
I did not hate my time with the apple classic, and music quality was great..... Sound was great too....but they only thing I did not like it was that it broke easily after just dropping it 2-3 times. Repair cost $200 ,and I could have bought another mp3 player!

Please don't get this one if you require a durable model, or require moving from one place to another without a pocket, and also don't get this one if you don't have a case.
BEWARE.....It has a lot of storage 160gb but it breaks easily.... the moving parts in them will dislodge and you won't be able to use your apple classic for long. You have to be extremely careful with the apple classic... YOu can't drop it, you can't be vacuuming the floor when you are listening to it, and you can't be jogging....YOu don't have the freedom of moving from place to place, and dropping it along the way, or conking it on something hard.

If you want an mp3 player that lasts a long time and is durable, get something else....a sony or a Nano

I used to listen to music on my iPod Nano but now I have my new 160gb. It holds so much, I can't even think of how to fill it. It does what its supposed to do, hold music and tons of it. Great iPod!!

Always wanted one when first came out. I have a large music, video and podcast collection. The added storage is a big advantage. I also have many audiobooks and plan on adding more material to my collection. Randy
