Apple iPod 5th Generation Black (60 GB) MP3 Player

A lot of you are wondering if this massive storage device is actually worth the dough. Well.. hard to say since I got mine for free from www.wickeddeals.net But if you are looking for the capability to store an unbelieveable amount of songs, photos, and even video, this device is for you.

Pros:
I have 7,000 songs, 10 photoshop tutorial videos, and 300 photos on my pod and I still have 52% of the hard drive free. I am trying to so hard to actually fill this thing, but it is difficult!

The unit is quite durable. I have dropped it a few times while running with it, and it has only received minor scratches.

The screen is very bright and easy to see.

The battery time is actually quite good. I think the longest it went for me just playing songs was about 5 hours or so.

Cons:
This unit is large compared to the other iPods. It is quite bulky on my arm while running. It is too heavy and bulky to leave in my pocket. So I recommend buying the sport sleeve or holding it while working out.

The unit does not fit well into the sport sleeve designed for it since the screen is so large. You cannot see the full title or artist name in the song list because the neoprene material covers it up. If you don't need the sport sleeve, then this is not a big deal.

The hard drive does have moving parts, so it is easier to break when dropped than a unit that does not have a hard drive.

It seems mine has gotten scratches on the front face plate rather easily (sliding it in and out of the protective sleeve).

The unit is expensive.

Conclusion: If you need loads of storage and don't mind a bulky unit, this thing is great. I love my iPod. And you really can't beat free.
