No other MP3 player on the planet packs more features, from video to a pedometer, into a smaller package than the overachieving Apple iPod Nano.

CNET Review
The Good: Packed to the gills with new audio-video features such as a video camera, FM radio, voice recording, Genius Mixes, a built-in speaker, and a larger 2.2-inch screen; also gets a pedometer.
The Bad: The Nano's camera can't shoot photos or HD-quality video and Apple located its lens in the most awkward location imaginable. Storage capacities remain stuck at 8GB and 16GB.
The Bottom Line: No other MP3 player on the planet packs more features, from video to a pedometer, into a smaller package than the overachieving Apple iPod Nano.

Review Summary: A quick glimpse at Apple's latest sales numbers suggests that sales of iPods are actually waning for the first time in a while, given that so many of us own one of Apple's omnipresent digital media ...
The Verdict: A successful evolution of the iPod line, even if the camera is more novelty than necessity. You pay a premium for an iPod, but it's hard to argue that you don't get a good deal.

Review Summary: Apple's smallest screen-based player gets a video camera
The Verdict: A very good music player, but the need to replace the substandard earphones make it relatively expensive

Review Summary: The 5th Generation (5G) of the iPod Nano was released way back in September but our review unit arrived a little later than expected. No worries though because it is actually perfect timing. Christmas is just around the corner and by now people have...
The Verdict: The iPod Touch is only a few thousands away from the iPod Nano 5th Generation. So why would you buy this small player when you can go for the bigger catch? Well the answer is pretty simple: the Nano 5G is portable. It is small, stylish, and definitely...

Review Summary: Apple's latest iPod Nano weighs just 34g and is no thicker than a pair of £1 coins, but Apple has squeezed in an FM radio and a video camera alongside its media playback features.
The Verdict: Apple's latest iPod Nano is impressively slim, but audio quality and battery life could be better, while some of the extras feel gimmicky.

Review Summary: Take a quick glance at the new iPod nano and you'd be forgiven for mistaking it for the old one.
The Verdict: The video camera and FM radio are great. The more affordable 16GB model isn't much cheaper than the 8GB iPod touch, but it's the nano's super-slim styling that marks it out.

Review Summary: I've spent quite a lot of time with the latest 5th generation of the iPod Nano since its release last month, and found it to be a welcome addition to Apple's holiday line-up with a host of welcome features including what must be Apple's most leaked...
The Verdict: All things considered, the new 5th generation iPod Nano is well worth taking a look at if you want to upgrade your iPod, but I wouldn’t upgrade if I had a 4th generation Nano, as the new features, personally, don't justify the purchase of another new...

Review Summary: The fifth iteration of Apple's tiny portable media player keeps the same featherweight body as its predecessor but adds a bigger screen and video recording.
The Verdict: The Apple iPod nano is a great mini-portable media player for those that are fans of Apple's slick design aesthetic and iTunes. The addition of the VGA camcorder is more of a bonus than a Flip-killer, and competing players offer better audio quality....
