Touch 16GB

Review One

"Arrived on the 12th September. First impressions box looks impressive. The touch did not disappoint. This latest iPod Touch 16GB version has a slimmer profile, a speaker, external volume control and comes with version 2.1 although I still had to update the firmware.

Very similar spec to the 1st version. Easy to use and loads apps to download. The internet browser is easy to zoom in with and connecting to home wifi worked fine. Loads of applications to add from itunes, lots of them free. Downloaded a video and that looks great too.

You do need to connect the Touch 16GB to a PC with itunes first as you cannot just connect to wifi and use it without sync'ing it first.

Well worth the money a great gadget you will have fun playing with for a long time to come.

Battery life - Had the iPod Touch 16GB on all day today listerning to music and connect to my home wifi. Lastest about 13 hours before warning that the battery was down to 20%. Obviously if I had turned off the wifi it would have lasted longer."

Review Two

"'Wow!' was the first thought that entered my head as I unwrapped my new toy - even the packaging is fantastic!

This iPod Touch 16GB really is a marvellous piece of kit, *doffs hat to Steve Jobs for another amazing innovative product*

Okay so it's only 16GB and, as with all methods of storage, you don't get exactly what it says on the tin due to system files and the like. That said, and despite what others have droned on about, this is as good as it gets for publicly available flash drive technology at the moment even if not as good as the iPod Touch 32GB Reviews.

Obviously there'll be storage improvements further down the line, perhaps even switching to the hard drive technology that's in the previous iPods and the Classic. However, I did read a review that the cover flow function on the classic absolutely kills the battery so it could be a case of waiting until the flash drive technology improves, which it undoubtedly will.

Anyway storage aside I can't find any fault with this iPod Touch 16GB. The touch screen is incredibly responsive which, after using the Sony DSC-T50, is quite remarkable. The pop up keyboard for internet surfing and WiFi configuration is a bit fiddly so you wouldn't want to use it for writing large emails but that's a very minor thing imo.

Cover flow is seamless which is probably, in part, due to the flash drive. YouTube and Safari apps are a nice touch - I can't see myself using it as a web browser that much, but watching YouTube videos I certainly will. Contacts and calendar all look very pretty. Only quibble here is that, if you're using the Vista contacts and calendar apps, the contacts will sync (including photos!) but the calendar isn't recognised at the moment - still, that's easily fixed with a software upgrade. Outlook users (on any platform) won't have any issue with this. Video playback is absolutely fantastic. It also handles videos that are in playlists better than my previous iPod - previously I would get pauses every 50 or so seconds, but on the Touch it's just like a normal track!

So to summarise, this iPod Touch 16GB is a great piece of kit that not only looks the business but works as good as it looks."

Review Three

"This iPod Touch 16GB is just amazing. I am actually writing this on my ipod just now using the touch screen keyboard, it is just so easy to use.

To start off anyone that thinks the size of the memory is a problem is wrong, i have copied 7 DVDs to it (so far) which is 8.4 hours and it has only taken up 1.26GB of space so you can actually fit far more than 20 hours of video nearer 100! But for this you do need to install software from the internet for £15 but it is well recommended, there are lots of different ones to choose for but i chose AvexDVD which does the job just fine.

I take my hat off to apple for this one it is by far the best ipod yet for function, aesthetics and ergonomics the ipod touch really is amazing and actually well worth the money. I suggest that you should stop thinking about it and start saving if you havn't already."
