It's great

 

I have always owned iPhone's, so this isn't really much different. It's just not a phone,, which is exactly what we needed.

It basically does everything that it's supposed to in my opinion. I purchased this for my fiancé and he uses it all the time. It plays music, lets you surf the Web, use Facebook and other things.... plus a whole lot more. Now he doesn't need a computer...

I think it could have been a little bit cheaper but no big deal

Apple Gold!

 

Would be nice to have a dust cover on the charging port and perhaps a camera built it!

Absolutely wonderful! I bought this for my wife as a birthday gift and she loves it! She says this is the best gift ever! Tons of Apps! Easy to use

Cheap Chinese Junk

 

I'm considering buying an all-in-one smartphone. I've never had one that does more than phone calls and text messaging but at the same time when a device like that fails then your really in trouble...

I became attached to this do-almost-all device quickly and it's hard not having one in my pocket

If you notice skips in music or crashes with aps you have a dead pod and DO NOT update it. Back it up and send it to Apple cause the hard drive now looks like swiss cheese. I lost 2x 2nd gen 16Gb models to this and from what I hear this is becoming a...

incredible. whoever said android changes life? didn't realize they could buy an itouch and go to heaven.

 

-Don't be fooled into thinking the 32gb has the same amount of video space as the 64gb one. The only reason its six hours for both is because the battery, fully charged, can only last six hours. i recomend if you're going to be downloading a TON of...

Hundreds, if not thousands of apps to choose from, some of them even free ; Plenty of storage space to store tons of stuff ; updates for servers and applications keep bugs out and you happy ; Voice command for music, which is incredibly useful if your...

Although, its not really a con, its a bit annoying, but right now i'm just being nit-picky. if you like to lay down and enjoy yourself, doing so with the itouch is going to be rather difficult because of the accelerometer, once you lie down the itouch...

Greatest ipod yet !!!

 

I have used the Apple Ipod touch everywhere. Whats really great about this product is the fact that it is known for not getting many viruses. There's nothing to dislike about this product.

Easy To Set Up, Great Sound, Long Battery Life, Lots of Storage, Reliable Performance, Simple Controls

APPLE IS HORRIBLE

 

The ipod touch seems to be so high tech and advertised to do many great things. The thing is, the ipod only connects through itunes, a tightly controlled, and invasive program. It took hours to burn a cd, even after reading 5 walkthroughs. I can not...

Sleek/Compact

Confusing Controls, Difficult to Set Up, Freezes Up, Non-compatable with PC, Short Battery Life

I touch 32 ROCKS :)

 

once again to sum it up. its beautiful, simple, sleek, handy and sturdy. (except for the earphones.. seriously i hate them)

Amazing piece backed by apple :) its very simple to use, the interphase is mindblowing :) even a kid can use it! sound quality is amazing (i use a bose headset) the apple head phones are not upto mark

just the headphones.. they are not upto the mark.. and now since they come with a mike and volume control to it, the voice command will not work if they are replaced with other headsets. thats the only sad part to the itouch. wish they could have had...
