The New Apple Ipod Nano

The sixth-generation Apple Ipod Nano hit the shelves a few months ago. It is considerably smaller and now competes with the shuffle as the smallest. However, with its small stature it can be misplaced easier. Weighing in at 21g could also be a factor in misplacing this product. It is equipped with a 1.54 multi-touch touch-screen (240x240) and comes in seven different colors:

• Silver
• Graphite
• Blue
• Green
• Orange
• Pink
• Red

The major changes for the sixth-generation are the new design, no more click wheel, camera, microphone, or speaker.



Some features it has are:

• The fitness app
• FM radio
• 24 hour battery life
• Built in clock that you can adjust
• Stop watch
• Timer
• Voice recording app(requires headphones that have a microphone)
• Built on clip so you can clip it to your pants
• 8gb $149
• 16gb$179

Although the screen is small, they made it easy to navigate. With two fingers you can rotate the screen and you can double tap on a photo to zoom in on it. If you press the screen for a longer period of time, it will take you back to the home screen. Sliding your finger across the screen to the right will take you to your previous screen.

This Nano was made more simple, mainly for music only. The price did not rise from the last generation. Personally I can’t see how something that has gotten smaller, with less features can have the same price. Besides that it’s a sleek looking product. If you want something easy and cheaper, this is the way to go.
