Review on MP3 Player Apple iPod touch 1 8 GB, Wi-Fi by Anastazja Dziemian ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not exactly the product that I wanted, the price and quality do not match.

The player came to me after my old iRiver disappeared. I went with the phone for quite a long time, but one day I got tired of it. This is my first device from the advertised company Apple. Not a very good impression. It's nice that the normal sound quality, high-quality assembly, all the declared functionality works. But little has been said. And most importantly, this terrible iTunes, I don’t understand who even had the idea to write SUCH. At the same time, it was declared as a breath of fresh air for Windows users. It's not convenient, it's slow. But the main thing is that it is not convenient. On the airiver, I just recorded the catalog with the artist as on a usb flash drive and that's it, you immediately need to create playlists, synchronize. And imagine, 32 gigabytes, some albums of 1.2 songs, it turns out that in order to score it all, you need to manually collect hundreds of albums and not yet drown in them. And there is no sorting by file name, if the tags are not specified, the track number is not set, then the album can be recorded in the correct sequence only by sequentially writing files or so that the directory is sorted by name when you throw it. I went to another city, I wanted to record a couple of tracks on the player, it’s impossible, the player is tied to the computer on which the recording was originally. You can only delete everything and re-record. There is nothing to hang on, I had to buy a special case . There are no external controls, it’s wildly inconvenient, you need to change something, you need to pull it out of your pocket (then the cover), unlock it, change it, put it back . I don't watch videos, I don't listen to the radio, I don't play games. So, alas, I didn't like it. If only for show-off, they sell it for big money to show) In principle, I saw mostly worse, but it falls short of well-thought-out devices. And if you compare it with some kind of aim for the phone, then it's not even close. But so, as a whole, it works, tolerably, it deserves a C grade. In general, I surprised you, but millions of people can't be wrong, can they? Maybe I didn't get the point? Or maybe they can?))

Pros
  • Sound quality; Sufficiently powerful battery; What is, works; Well made; The image is clearly visible in the sun;
Cons
  • iTunes is a horror; Inconvenient navigation; No external controls; Lack of fastening possibility; Not a very powerful amplifier; No microphone; Non-standard for ordinary people connector for communication with a PC and charging; There is no possibility in the listening mode without unlocking with a finger to move the playback position indicator to the desired place, only by rewinding, moreover, it is not convenient; At maximum and close to them volume levels it is inconvenient to "slightly decrease"; Work with music only through iTunes; No sorting by filename. Binding to the computer on which the recording was made.
