The latest generation iPod Nano, or known by the iPod Nano 5G offers a few new things that has never existed in the iPod nano previous generations. Mainstay features offered by this new iPod include an integrated video camera, FM radio, and a pedometer that will be very useful for those who love sports on foot. But, how is the performance of this iPod? Let's look further review.
Music
iPod Nano true it is intended for fans of music. 16GB capacity is considered adequate to accommodate a collection of favorite music. For those who enjoy high quality music, with a 16GB iPod Nano you do not need to fear getting music with a high enough bitrate. Setting well-organized playlists easier for us to find a particular song. On the Go features a very useful also retained. With On the Go allows you to choose the songs you like and put it into a temporary playlist with ease, simply by pressing the center button for several seconds when the songs in a playlist in the highlights.
The sound quality produced by the iPod Nano is very good. Moreover, when we use the exact equalizer option that can be accessed via the settings menu. Earphones that came with the iPod Nano 5G has a fairly good quality and quite comfortable to use. Bass and treble produced by this iPod will be felt again when combined with better-quality earphones.
Video
With a screen resolution of 240 x 376 pixels and 204 dpi density, iPod Nano 5G has the advantage of displaying video format mp4. Even when used to watch movies converted from DVD, 5G Nano to do its job very well. You could say Nano 5G into the cinema that can go into your pocket! It is indeed a pleasant thing for movie lovers. The color produced by the screen iPod Nano 5G is also very good, making the viewing experience more enjoyable. The drawback is the small screen size may make it harder for those who have problems with vision. From my experience a normal-eyed, with a good resolution, 5G Nano capable of displaying text on the film quite clearly and can be read easily.
Wait a minute! Here it is championed from Nano 5G, namely its ability to record H.264 video format and VGA resolution (480x640 pixels), images captured by a small camera located on the back of the iPod is fairly good. Even much better than the recording with a certain mobile phone 3gp format. Recorded during a video recording is also quite good. It is indeed a very useful feature offered by Apple. It is unfortunate that the camera is available it can not be used to photograph. One more thing lacking is a bit awkward camera placement, so often our fingers into the frame while recording video. But do not be too worried, by familiarizing themselves and find a delicious way of holding your iPod, we can overcome this problem.
FM Radio
One more feature that highly anticipated by users of the iPod generation predecessor is an integrated FM radio. Now we just need a headset or earphones attached to iPods, then we will be able to use this radio feature. The great of this feature is that we can pause and resume again radio broadcasts without missing anything, it was as though a radio broadcast that is broadcast delay recorded in our iPods.
Accelerometer
The presence of an accelerometer on the iPod Nano 5G It allows us to calculate how many steps we have done when it is running. And surprisingly, the prediction is accurate! Not only that, when we watch the video, this iPod can play smart (rotate) the image so that we will not see an inverted image. Similarly, when we look at the photos that we can enter into this iPod via iTunes. In addition there are also some games that use this feature so as to provide a new sensation in playing games on the iPod.
Battery
Batteries that are embedded within this iPod has a pretty good performance. Although Apple claims the iPod can play music for 24 hours and 5 hours for video, the reality is not always the case. In listening to music, before 24 hours of nonstop this iPod would have run out of power. This is because in real conditions, we will turn on the screen and so on to operate the iPod, so battery consumption will be more extravagant. Because the iPod screen is a high quality screen, then the power consumption will be more. But never fear, the power stored inside the iPod battery when fully charged can last long enough. What is clear for a long time until we get bored and tired of listening to music. For radio, battery consumption will be more extravagant than when we listen to music.
Quality Materials and Design
The materials used by the iPod is quite good. Its exterior was wrapped in a metal casing this time smooth texture. The advantage is that the surface of the iPod it will be more easily cleaned, they are missing is if you do not wear additional protective gloves, your iPod will be a breeding place of fingerprints.
The surface of the screen is made of materials that are not easily scratched so you can store it in the pocket a little quiet. But it would be even better if you continue to use additional protective as used on the phone display.
The new iPod design do not vary much with the 4th generation iPod. The difference is a larger screen area and force control button shifts slightly downward. In terms of appearance should be recognized that the iPod has become better looking than its predecessor. But it feels a bit awkward when first holding it because your thumb would be trying to reach the button or when turning the touchpad.
Conclusion
Eligible to own! For those of you who like to watch the movie but want a movie player that can easily fit into a pocket, this tool is the right tool for you. For music lovers, this iPod will meet your expectations in terms of audio quality, battery life up to convenience of operation. With a realistic price, we can get a music player, video camera, and FM radio in one device.
