Review on Apple 5th Generation iPod Video πŸŽ₯ Player, 30GB, AAC/MP3, Black (Discontinued by Manufacturer) by Jeffrey Nunes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Value for Portable AV Equipment

I bought this unit after the original owner gave me a used 60G version as a gift about a year ago. It quickly became a staple in one of my cars. Although I'm a longtime PC and Android addict, using this device convinced me that Apple had succeeded with the iPod when it came to in-car MP3/podcast players. Integration with most if not all OEM and aftermarket car audio systems is seamless. In addition, once connected, the interface is very convenient. The next obvious step was to add another device for the second car. However, all new Apple products seem to me to be highly overpriced, so I decided on a refurbished device based on my good experience with a used device. The product was delivered as promised. It included an Apple charging cable (iPod to USB) and headphones. The provision of these items along with the device made this a great purchase. As a bonus, the device was ready to use the first time I connected it to my Windows PC. I expected to have to reconfigure it, but it wasn't necessary. As a final note to potential buyers, the item advertised as "in stock" took almost two weeks to arrive. To be fair, though, the purchase was made on the eve of Christmas. Even when informed of the lack of information about the status of the delivery, the supplier promised to investigate and actually dropped the matter.

Pros
  • Gotcha!
Cons
  • Some flaws
