We already loved the nano
But we love this fifth generation model so much it hurts. In a good way. Apple's kept the same slender design as the previous model
But given it a larger 2.2-inch screen which is great for showing off that spanking new vide...

Video camera & FM radio are pointless

No still camera
Video camera lens is in an odd place
Have to use iTunes software
A little more expensive than rival models
16GB storage won’t be enough for some
Video recording isn’t perfect. Weak headphones
Video recording isn't perfect
Headphones as poor as ever
No still image capture and iTunes Tagging won’t work in the UK
Not much really. You still can't take still photographs (which seems weird as you can now capture VGA video). Also when taking video you're in danger of shooting your fingers. But that's par for the course with something this small. Oh and the...
Abstract: Verdict: Apple's latest iPod Nano includes an FM radio but audio quality could be better, while the new video camera feels gimmicky. Apple's latest iPod Nano weighs just 34g and is only 5mm at its thickest point, tapering off at the edges. Despite t...
An easytouse VGA quality camcorder... in an iPod!, FM radio (finally!), with Live Pause and iTunes Tagging, Bigger screen, builtin speaker
Shiny new finish becomes smudged more easily, No still photo capture with the video camera
As amazing as all the new features (joining the old, and I'm not aware of any that have been lost along the way) is the simple fact that they manage to fit together inside the same physical space as last year, even with the addition of necessary hardw...
New finish makes colors look great!, 16GB Model is cheaper than last time around, Camera is just enough for average user, Retains same, slim form factor,
No 32 GB size like I expected, Pedometer is a bit faulty, Good unit, but really not that different when compared to last years
Ultimately, the iPod Nano is a charming little piece of equipment. It continues the iPod legacy while adding some key new features to it’s arsenal. It does everything it says it will do in a well executed manner. Video quality lef...
Abstract: It’s not often that a company launches a product that changes the playing field and saves the business all in one go, but that’s exactly what happened in late 2001 when Apple, on the ropes and hemorrhaging market share, brought out the first iPod.By to...
Abstract: Has Apple taken the nano someplace it shouldn't be? Are there too many features for a simple MP3 player? Post your opinion below.With the latest iPod nano, Apple’s finally addressing a long-standing issue: The missing FM tuner. The newest nano also inc...
Abstract: Today we take a look at the newly released iPOD Nano 5g..The new iPod nano offers a video camera, a polished anodized aluminum finish, and a larger screen. Also making its debut: FM radio with Live Pause is featured on the nano, iPod nano now also now ...
Sleek and compact design; great value for money; nice sound quality.
The FM radio and camera are still in their baby steps; scroll wheel not up to the mark.
With the new add- ons, apple seem to be trying too hard. There is no grace and etiquette, something all ipods are famed for. The add-ons just made a beautiful ipod look a tad shabby. Why would they put these features on it, if they all did lack in per...
