1. Apple iPod Nano 7th Generation
The seventh-generation iPod nano is yet another full redesign of Apple’s music player, but it’s a
welcome move away from the smaller form factor of its predecessor. The new Nano is taller and
slimmer, with a 2.5 inch capacitive touch screen display. It also has a physical home button, which
many people were missing.
All-new design
The new iPod nano has a 2.5-inch Multi-Touch display that’s great for browsing album art, photos,
videos and more.
Bluetooth
Wirelessly connect to speakers, headphones, your car stereo, and other Bluetooth-friendly devices.
Because there’s no Wi-Fi, you can’t connect to the Internet or download music and apps, or text
with friends. There is, however, built-in Bluetooth so you can wirelessly connect to speakers,
headphones and other Bluetooth-enabled devices. This means you don’t have to be tethered to Ear
Pods at the gym; you can use a Bluetooth headset and avoid those messy wires. This is also great if
your car speakers are Bluetooth-enabled
Design:
One downside to the Apple iPod Nano is that you still have to use iTunes to move music and other
media onto it. Once you’ve been able to download apps and songs while on the go, it’s hard to go
back to being tethered to a computer and iTunes. Apple has brought back the ability to watch video
in this version, but I wish the company had also brought back the ability to record video. That was a
welcome addition in the fourth-generation model, which went away when the screen size shrank.
Speaking of screens, though it’s not a retina display like the new iPhone and iPad, it does a nice job
of displaying photos. The multi-touch display means pictures can be pinched and zoomed just like on
other iOS devices.
Built-in fitness
Since Nike+ support and a pedometer are built-in to iPod nano, you can track your daily activity and
goals.
