This iPod appealed to me due to its compact size, good looks and reasonable storage space. Although many people complain about the lack of video/camera and similar capabilities in this iPod, my personal opinion is that the screen size is so small that you don’t really need those features. Also, given the size and the purpose of this particular iPod, I didn’t expect a great deal other than being able to play music on it. Still, given the fact that everyone has their own preferences and the fact that previous generations of iPod Nano had those characteristics, I feel it’s a bit naughty of Apple to take that away while maintaining the price.
Other than that, this iPod is easy to use and navigation is very similar to iPod Touch. However, the screen doesn’t rotate automatically as you turn this iPod, there is no track length scrollbar on screen during playback, so if you wanted to go back to certain parts of some songs, you will have no choice other than use RW/FW. The clock you normally see at the top of your screen isn’t there either.
However, the most frustrating thing with this iPod is exactly the same as the issue people have with the iPhone and that’s its battery life. Apple website claims that this iPod gives you up to 24 hours of music playback when fully charged and, believe me, you will fully understand the meaning of the term “up to”. I don’t know in which universe this iPod was tested before its release to the mass market, but I managed to get it down to around 50% of its fully charged battery having played back only one full album by one artist just twice. Anyone can understand that this wouldn’t come to anywhere near 24 hrs by any stretch of imagination.
All this aside, it’s still a nice alternative to iPod Shuffle. Those who don’t like the idea of a fancy iPod Shuffle should probably consider other iPods.

At last APPLE HAVE FINALLY PERFECTED the iPod. Everything previous to the 6th gen Nano were experimentations. They came close with the 2nd gen Shuffle. At last they have taken the best feature of the Touch ie: touch screen; and the best feature of the Shuffle ie: miniature form and clip; and created the ULTIMATE iPod !!!!
This is truly the perfect iPod. It weighs next to nothing, can be clipped to your shirt/trouser/jacket/whatever and you can access all the content with great ease.
This is what an iPod is all about, people.
The iPod Touch hardly qualifies for an iPod. It’s big, bulky, heavy and cumbersome. It actually falls into the category of a micro tablet computer in my opinion.
If you want all the gizmos that the Touch offers, then get an iPhone for Pete’s sake.
The 6th gen Nano truly is an amazing iPod. It’s kept simple and yet still has all the features that are typical of an MP3 player.
Aesthetically, it is simply stunning. No other iPod looks as snazzy as this baby.
I highly recommend it to anyone who wants truly portable audio.
PROS:
* looks amazing
* touch screen
* simple menu layout
* very light
* has a clip to secure to your clothing
* turns heads (it damn well should do!)
CONS:
* it would have been nice if Apple had included Nike+ inside the iPod instead of a separate dongle but I can live with that.
