  • The Apple iPod Classic offers a solid, understated design with an easy-to-use interface and unbelievably generous capacity
  • EQ control is limited; the plastic screen is susceptible to scratching; and the only way to move media on and off the device is through iTunes
  • The iPod Classic refines the formula that put the iPod on the map. None can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and intuitive user interface....

  • Huge storage (who really has 40,000 songs?), Good value, Anodised aluminium front feels like quality, Video and photos are bright and clear, Interface looks even slicker than ever ...
  • but marred by hard disk lag issues, Sound quality still, at best, mediocre, Cover Flow a case of form over function, New accessories required for video out
  • The name suggests more of the same but with more space and better value. Hard disk lag issues, video out controversy and just okay sound stop it from being a true classic though.

  • Tons of storage. Improved interface. “Classic” iPod controls. Easy navigation.
  • Cover Flow is a bit slow. Bundled earbuds aren’t great.

  • Great screen, Possibly the best sounding PMP, Well built, Unmatched storage,
  • Heavy and bulky, Larger screen would have made it better at movies

  • Good battery life, Crisp screen, Excellent interface, Large capacity, Excellent sound quality, Good design.
  • Unresponsive click wheel, Restricted to iTunes.
  • The iPod Classic goes for Rs.15,000 for the 120GB version, which is just about what an 8GB touch will cost you. Depending on whether you want the larger storage space and actual music or just a better convergence device you could make your choice betw...

  • Huge capacity; great sound quality; support for high-quality audio and video formats; decent screen; integration with iTunes for music, movie and TV show downloads; heaps of accessories available; sturdy design.
  • Only one capacity option; lackluster EQ options; weaker battery life compared with previously available classic.
  • 120GB of storage and the addition of the Genius feature make up for the slightly reduced battery life over the previous model, reaffirming the iPod classic as our favorite portable audio player on record.
