I love the new mini iPod in hot pink. I had a 7th generation one that was stolen so replaced it with this 8th get model. Although they look identical, I couldn't believe that the plug for the earbuds was NOT compatible! Seriously? But that's typical apple - make one product incompatible with the previous gen (bought only 6 months apart). Best buy delivered as promised though - no complaints there!

If you're like me and like to a. OWN your music and B. keep it off the phone- pick up this adorable little nano. It's got a radio, physical fitness app and fits in your smallest pocket. I'd give it 5 stars but I think it's a little overpriced for what it is, still I like having it and would replace it with another if it got lost.

I upgraded from my original Ipod to gain more storage, period. I currently dock to a Bose radio to listen to music when I am at my cottage. The new Ipod doesn't allow you to dock anymore. You can attach with a composite cable. Why did Apple take this feature away. So, it's Bluetooth. What harm would it have caused to leave the Ipods dockable? Very disappointed. Just have to keep buying more cables, radios, whatever to adapt this thing. Very, very disappointed.

What's not to like here; small, good battery life, enough storage for what it is, rock solid when using Bluetooth. My only problem is I use it so much I hope I don't kill the life span of the battery to fast.

IPod nano is very convenient when you need to free your phone. The capacity is great and controls are very easy to use.
I still think there is a nieche for these mp3 players.
Battery lasts for days so you do not drain your phone.

I received an iPod nano as a gift 10 years ago, and it has worked great. but at only 2GB, it no longer fit my needs. The new 16GB iPod was easy to load with ALL of my iTunes, just requiring an iTunes update to support the new iPod. It works great, and is very easy to use.

The product is very good, pretty, light, small and the battery lasts more than a week. Previously I had a iPod that last 10 years. iPods are a very good investment for those who like listen to music, movies and radio.

I didn't want to spend much on another (new busybody) iPod Touch, so I got the now discontinued 16 gig Nano. The FM radio is a nice added feature even though it's main use is for music and podcasts. It is awesomely-small and it's interface is exceptionally simple to use. Easy to read too!
(unlike the direction Apple seems to be veering off into unfortunately.. ;)
I also like the lightning cable too; its great for fast and modern data transfer.

This nano is by far the best on the market right now. I use the walking Nike feature every day at lunch time to track my steps, time and mileage. The touch screen works flawlessly. I love that it can play fm radio when headphones are connected. You will not be disappointed with this little gem. It is lightweight and the Bluetooth feature works great when paired with any capable device. Definitely a great holiday gift idea for the avid music fan in your family.

Unit is very thin and small overall so does not take up much so=pace in pocket but with 16 gig storage holds a ton of songs. Saves a lot on the cell phone battery. I paired with JBL wireless ear buds - sounds good but hardly like you have anything on you when excercising. Lots of options for different song groupings and tone choices. Nice for fitness too with step tracker feature. Also gives you radio. This is my second as it replaced an earlier model that broke.

This is actually our third 8th Gen Apple iPod nano. My wife and I each have one, and we got this one to keep in our car. The Bluetooth feature is the icing on cake for this fine product. We use our personal iPods with Bluetooth wireless headphones. Our car has a Bluetooth stereo unit. This iPod is small and compact, has a big screen, receives FM radio, and huge storage capacity. It's very easy to use, with large, clear screen touch controls.

This is the next iPod Nano as of March 25, 2016. Touch screen and battery life is good. Uses bluetooth but no wifi. For the price, I would recommend if you have a mp3 just for work outs.

I replaced my 4th generation click wheel iPod with a 8th generation iPod nano. My old one finally stopped working and looked for update software. Then I decided to look into newer models. Boy, am I glad. Not only is it loaded with more features, fm radio, bluetooth, video, step tracker, the sound is great. Compact, good looking and easy to use. The only problem is that it does not hold as much music as the old ones.

This iPod nano was bought as a Christmas present. Was the perfect gift! Works just as expected . Holds a large volume of music and is small enough to fit in a pocket. Sound is great too!

This is my third 8th gen nano and I love everyone of them. I have had 3 different past generation nano's and I have always loved the size for travel and for workouts. This battery is so much better than previous generations and the Bluetooth is why I now own 3 since once you go to Bluetooth headphones for workouts and lawn mowing you just won't go back. Overall they are sturdy and hold plenty of music or books for workout and travel.

I was disappointed to find out Apple discontinued all the IPods except the touch. I love this, I can put my CD on it, purchase music, it has touch screen, FM radio and great sound! I also love the color choice, I picked Blue. I enjoy having my music in one place, not tying up the memory on my phone and not having to worry about running down my phone's battery in order to enjoy my music!

I had a Zune for many years, which I enjoyed, but unfortunately lost it on a cruise ship. I read many reviews on many different models of music players and found the iPod Nano to be highly rated. I went to Best Buy with an "open mind" and checked the various models on display. What finally sold me on the iPod Nano was the Bluetooth feature. It has functioned flawlessly so far and has great sound compared to my Zune. Love it! It was a 'tad more expensive then other brands, but well worth it.

I'll admit to being a bit biased toward Apple, but even if I weren't I would love this MP3 player. So easy to use, the screen is easy to see and so lightweight you don't even know you have it with you. I use bluetooth headphones, but the sound is the same with these or the wired. I bought a clear clip so I can clip it on, but it fits nicely in a pocket, purse, laptop bag. Very thin, light and high quality.

This is a great little MP3 player with some nice features. No need to spend the money on the iPod touch, this nano does everything I needed it to do. I wanted a quality player that wasn't too big to carry back and forth to work. It has Bluetooth capability and a radio tuner. Pair it with some wireless headphones and it's perfect for working out or doing housework/ yardwork without the cord getting in the way. The only drawback is you have to use the headsets to pick up the radio. It stores plenty of songs and the battery life seems good. I can use the player for several days without having to charge the battery.

This was the perfect size for the workouts we plan to do. It is light weight, works great and makes every song sound great.
