At night, when I am in bed, I use my iPod - no external speakers, just the iPod speaker to listen to music or an old familiar audio book as white noise to help me get to sleep because I can set the timer for how long I want to listen. In my car, I listen via the car speakers, and when I am walking outside, I listen to my iPod with ear buds. If I am going to be pretty stationary, I listen with the speaker plugged in vs blue tooth, because it saves me from having to charge the speaker as much. I listen to mine using the blue tooth speaker when I am at home, because it is louder than just the iPod and if I'm doing chores and moving from room to room, it is SO convient to just walk around with the speaker and leave the iPod in the kitchen (which is central in my house).

She took hers into the store and they told her something was wrong with the speaker and replaced the iPod. Hers was NOT good and we had the same iPod. She was so amazed at the difference in the sound. We were talking about the sound one day, and I let her listen to a clip on mine. I bought my daughter an iPod touch and I also have one. What about the audio quality? The iPod Touch and iPhone 4S that I've listened to have a low-quality, distorted sound, compared to the several mp3 players that I have used (including the Sa." The other downside of Apple products is the need to use the iTunes interface.

The only reason I switched to using my phone is to just have one device with me, plus I love the ability to use bluetooth headphones. (I know that others have had a good experience with theirs.) He now uses my 3rd gen nano. By comparison, I bought my son an inexpensive Sansa Clip a few years ago, and it lasted about two months. I can't speak to the durability of the touch or nanos with touch screens, but the quality of the click wheel technology is top-notch. Only reason I bought the 5th gen is I wanted the built-in pedometer and increased memory. Both still work perfectly with fairly regular use. I had a 3rd generation nano (2007) and a 5th generation nano (2009). I'm not sure how long it lasted, but well over 8 years. I had one of the first colored iPod minis. Still works great with daily use, though the battery isn't quite what it used to be. My husband has the first "classic" iPod (from 2005, before they were called classic). Here has been my experience with Apple players, David. I no longer use my iPod at all.ĭavid wrote: "What do people think of the audio quality of Apple products? (Please only answer if you have done direct comparisons with non-Apple players.)" I now have a smartphone (Android), and I use the Audible app and the SmartAudiobook app for non-Audible books. I decided when I was looking that it wouldn't be worth moving to a touch or a classic from the nano I was using.

I myself don't need to have with me the Jock Jams CD he stole from his brother in high school. He loves to carry around every CD we have. What you'd lose in the move to a touch is storage capacity, as the classic has way more than a touch would. If you already have a smartphone, a touch might be pretty redundant, as you could have all those things on a smart phone. :)įrom my limited research (having considered a similar move as you a couple years ago), what you'd gain from a touch is the bluetooth function, the "smart phone" functions where you can have games and apps (including Audible or other audiobook apps), wi-fi which will give you wireless connection to iTunes and use of Audible and other apps, and a smaller, lighter device to carry around. In other words, others might have more up-to-date insight than I do. My husband has a classic, but neither of us has had a touch. Of my many toys this is the one that I use for hours every day and that throws me into a state of total panic if it's not worki."
