This 7th generation Nano seems to be creating quite a divide. Personally, I think this is perfect replacement for my 4th generation Nano that recently got stolen. it is tiny, beautiful to look at and hold, has logical buttons and sounds great when paired with decent earphones (I use Klipsch X10is)
One of the biggest criticisms is the change to the new lightning docking cable. Get over it. The 30 pin dock is now nearly 10 years old. It is big and clunky. There is no way it could be incorporated in to this slender new device. I have no problem connecting to my car stereo with either the supplied USB/lighting cable or Bluetooth.
If all you want is great music player in a perfect form, this is the model to go for. If you want more, get yourself a Touch or iPhone

just the player. It is a lovely size with a very responsive screen and superb sound quality (with my own Creative ep630 earphones). The music transfers on to it really quickly from itunes and I love it for that. The new earphones aren’t worth me even bothering to take them out of the box as I know from looking at the shape they won’t stay in my ears, but my big question for Apple is who the hell designed the box? It is impossible to close once everything has been removed (and don’t forget I didn’t take the earphones out so they’re still in there as they were packed and I didn’t put the charging cable back in as I’ll need to use it). The only reason that didn’t end up being smashed to bits is because I might need it if the player goes wrong. I love the player, though.
An update. It is being exchanged by Apple for another one next week as the battery is only lasting about two hours. However, that does seem to be a common problem with them. If was able to return it to the place I bought it from (they said I can’t because I’ve used it – der, how was I supposed to know it was faulty if I didn’t?) I wouldn’t get another one. I’ve got a year’s warranty with Apple, though, so I can see myself having a new one every so often if it isn’t just my one that’s got the problem.
Update 2. It has been taken back by the seller following another conversation in which I quoted what someone at Apple had told me and the words “not fit for purpose”.

The ipod is lovely and is a present for my sister.
It came on time, well packaged and well wrapped by amazon of course in Christmas wrapping which my gift was a birthday present so bit annoying there but never mind.
It works perfectly fine as i have tested it as I had to change the wrapping paper anyway 🙂
overall pleased
