In August 2005, I became a proud owner of an iPod mini. Now, things have changed, and I don't have such a great impression of what used to be one of the latest gadgets around. It all started with the standard iPod. Now, it looks like a chunky brick. Many people began to buy the new iPod mini, and soon after I received one for my 2005 birthday. It was great at the time, and still does its job, but since then I have had to have mine replaced... for a high price. They aren't made as well as you could expect, and the iPod mini has to be one of the oldest ones on the market now. With the latest iPod touch having being released, the iPod mini looks ancient in ...  Read the complete review

I have had my ipod mini for quite a while now and have found it very useful in the car using a Power Jolt and fold up speakers. The music is very clear and I can have it up as loud as I like. I know there have been a few newer versions of the mini but I would not change as I can get all I need from the mini It holds 1500 songs which is enough I have not yet heard all of the songs even on ...  Read the complete review

Ipod mini ------------ Ipod mania has hit Earth hard, you can't go anywhere without seeing someone with those white headphones and ipod (whatever type) in there hand. And yes I have been sucked in. ~~~What is it?~~~ It is an MP3 player which plays music which you put onto the ipod from your computer. It is small, lightweight and looks flashy but the bottom line is that it's an MP3 player. ~~~Why are MP3 players so popular rather than the CD player?~~~ MP3 players tend to be lighter and less bulky than a CD player. Also they store more songs and there's no track changing. Here's the naughty bit though, with CDs someone has to ...  Read the complete review

This was one of the first iPods I ever had and it was pretty good, although back then, considering the features it did have, it wasn't that reliable and sometimes messed up as it got older. The iPods today tend to run a lot more smoothly. This was the mini version of the original iPod and it had a screen, although not in colour, it coud light up. The iPod mini is available in many colours such as pink, green, silver, red and blue. The battery on this iPod was actually pretty good - it'd last for a good few days quite easily of fair use. The iPod Mini is even heavier than the iPod Touch today but it's small compared to the classic size. However this has an ...  Read the complete review

I've had my mini for at least 2005 and is a 2nd generation model. This excellent device has served me well since bought and I have had no troubles with it at all. It has all the basic functions you would expect. It plays music, has a calendar, and even has a few basic games. Whilst the screen is only a basic LCD with no colour, the back light is strong enough so you will always know what's on screen. I have even used it as a search light one or twice. The famous ipod click wheel is still as reliable as the day it was bought. All the buttons you need for a music player are easily located and large enough so you don't press the wrong one by accident. ...  Read the complete review
