  • Quick music transfers, movie viewing, long battery life
  • Earbuds, clicking hard drive, lack of white body color option
  • The latest generation of iPod unveiled by Apple pushed the manufacturer to rename its primary iPod to the iPod classic. With this change comes a better-looking body, the same great sound and an ever better user interface.For the iPod classic, also kno...

  • Sluggish/balky menus No docking station included Requires iTunes 7 or newer Might not be compatible with some accessories

  • The iPod Classic is just like the fifth-generation iPod with video, only slimmer, tougher, and injected with a more visually rich graphical user interface.
  • Video output now requires a proprietary cable; audio quality has not improved; some older iPod video accessories may not be compatible; users are required to use the latest version of iTunes, which may not work on some older computer systems.
  • The iPod Classic is a refinement of the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and advanced user interface.
