Kitchen.) You can also use it to track calories burned and other exerciseoriented data. It's no Nikekiller

The editors didn't like
The FM radio and camera are still in their baby steps
Scroll wheel not up to the mark.
No 32 GB size like I expected
Pedometer is a bit faulty
Good unit
But really not that different when compared to last years
Shiny new finish becomes smudged more easily
No still photo capture with the video camera
The Apple iPod Nano has a battery life of 24 hours.
Uncomfortable bundled earbuds
Lackluster video recording in low light
Not the best audio quality
Nano doesn’t support iTunes Extras or iTunes LP photos/interviews
Video camera doesnt work well in low light
And its easy to get your fingers in the way of the lens. Shiny
Curved screen picks up some glare. Builtin speaker sounds tinny. Radio requires headphones. Included headphones dont support VoiceOver features. AC...
So-so file support. Video camera cant capture still images. Ships with Apples signature subpar earbuds.
Camera lens smudges easily
Camera position awkward
No still pictures
Weak speaker
Prone to camera shake
Video camera's lens placed in a stupid location. Can't take still images. Lacks autofocus. Has no optical zoom (but neither does the Flip). External speaker has squeaky audio playback
The Nanos camera cant shoot photos or HD-quality video and Apple located its lens in the most awkward location imaginable. Storage capacities remain stuck at 8GB and 16GB.
Recorded video isnt high-definition
Video colors look slightly washed out when video is enlarged
Still a great design, Camera is great, plenty of modes, Music playback is great, Great FM reception, Battery life for audio is good
Placement of the camera is bad, Should have had a Still camera as well
The range of new Apple iPods are upon us. Before you ask, were still in the dark about the iPhone 3Gs arrival, although eminent. First up on the review front is the new iPod Nano with its on-board video camera. Let me first say that Im honestly surp...
Incredibly slim and light, built-in camera, FM radio with Live Pause, good audio quality, pedometer function, built-in loudspeaker, good battery life
Unimpressive display quality, camera does not capture still images, click wheel not very accurate at times
Trust Apple to bend the laws of physics. The fourth generation iPod nano was already a miniscule device, barely larger than a chocolate bar. And if you thought it couldnt get any slimmer, wait till you see the new iPod nano that was announced at Apple...

Video camera; FM radio; voice recording; Genius Mixes; built-in speaker; large 2.2-inch screen; pedometer.
Camera cant shoot photos or HD-quality video; lens in the most awkward location imaginable; capacities remain stuck at 8GB and 16GB.
Small and portable; decent video recording; voice recording; wider and brighter screen.
Videos are grainy in low light conditions; FM radio quality isn’t great; no wireless connectivity.
The improvements to the new iPod nano 5G, especially the built-in speaker and microphone, certainly make it feel more like a full feature music player like the iPod touch. The added advantage of video capture certainly makes it a tempting offer for mu...
The iPod Touch is only a few thousands away from the iPod Nano 5th Generation. So why would you buy this small player when you can go for the bigger catch? Well the answer is pretty simple: the Nano 5G is portable. It is small, stylish, and definitely ...

Abstract: The outward appearance of the fifth-generation iPod nano remains largely unchanged from the fourth-generation nano that preceded it. You still get the shiny aluminum casing, the elongated body, and the white click wheel, but there are some obvious changes...
It seems that Apple has decided not to make changes to what is a pretty good design for the iPod nano. While it is great to not fix anything that isn't broken, this seems to dampen the overall newness and excitement of the new media player a little.Bu...
Buena resolución de la pantalla, Buenos materiales utilizados en su construcción, Excelente diseño, Buena calidad de audio
Audífonos que sólo invitan a cambiarlos, Al activar el podómetro la duración de la batería se reduce considerablemente, Ubicación de la cámara no parece ser la más adecuada
Como conclusión final podemos decir que este nuevo iPod nano representa una evolución y no una revolución de esta línea. Básicamente por el hecho de que no tenemos mejoras significativas en las características principales del reproductor, pero sí tenemo...

Abstract: Compartido 2 Veces Como probablemente ya sabes, el iPod nano recibió un refresco por parte de Apple en su ultimo evento 'rock n' roll' y hoy lo recibimos para hacerle las pruebas pertinentes. Como aún necesitamos algunos días para dar nuestro veredicto f...
