Disadvantages: Newer models are available, Crashes (rare), battery life bad for video playback

The ipod nano 3rd generation is a great mp3 player with added video capability and photo viewing capability which put it in front of it's predecessors. The device is part of the successful ipod range by Apple Inc. The device has a new design over it's predecessors and is shorter in height and also much thinner and lighter. It features the trademark apple click-wheel and a clean and simple design with an LCD screen which is bright and crisp.

The device is very portable and can be used comfortably whilst on the go. The audio quality is excellent and apple headphones are included in the box. The headphones last a long time, it took one and a half years of heavy usage for them to finally give in and stop functioning which is very good for headphones in my experience. The device can hold a good number of songs but if people want to put a large collection of whole albums on the device then I recommend buying one with higher storage then 4GB. This is also true for those wanting to put large quantities of video or photos on there. The quality of video playback is also impressive but it uses a huge amount of battery which will reduce battery-life significantly. Also very rarely the device crashes and requires you to reset it or plug it into itunes to reset it which is a flaw but nothing major and happens very rarely.

Summary: Overall a good addition to the range of apple ipod nano products but newer models are available.
