  • The iPod Classic offers a sleek, understated design with an easy-to-use interface and great podcast support; Genius feature creates new playlists for you; video playback is excellent; and rated battery life is great.
  • EQ control is limited; some older iPod video accessories may not be compatible; the plastic screen is susceptible to scratching; users are required to use the latest version of iTunes, which may not work on some older computer systems.
  • The iPod Classic refines the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and intuitive user interface. Price range: $234.99 - $249.99 check prices See all products in the series

  • Apple has done very little to improve the iPod classic with this iteration - that's not necessarily a bad thing. It remains the iPod to own if you want to carry a lot of media with you. The Genius feature is a nice addition as is the ability to quickl...
