The Apple iPod Classic is exactly that, a classic. At the end of 2001 when it was first introduced it completely redefined MP3 players (Originally released as iPod, Classic was added to the title in the 6th generation release). It was smaller, held mor...

Meet the new iPod. It looks familiar, huh? That’s because Apple’s iPod classic is essentially a replacement for the iPod video, or fifth-generation iPod. The main improvement here is storage space—what was once a 30GB or 80GB player now comes with 80GB...

Tons of storage. Improved interface. “Classic” iPod controls. Easy navigation.
Cover Flow is a bit slow. Bundled earbuds aren’t great.

40,000 songs! It can hold my current CD collection (which is pretty substantial) and all the music I buy for years to come. Or you can fill it with seven hours of video, though the 2.5-inch, 320×240 pixel display is too small for long term vi...

Apple extends its iPod line with the 6G classic - a successor to the 5G classic - and has quite a legacy to live up to. The Classic is for those who want the video playing capabilities of the iPod without the limiting size of the iPod Touches. This me...

Good battery life, Crisp screen, Excellent interface, Large capacity, Excellent sound quality, Good design.
Unresponsive click wheel, Restricted to iTunes.
The iPod Classic goes for Rs.15,000 for the 120GB version, which is just about what an 8GB touch will cost you. Depending on whether you want the larger storage space and actual music or just a better convergence device you could make your choice betw...

Lacking the wide-screen wonder and connectivity of the iPod touch and the 4G iPod nano's gee-whiz accelerometer and shake-to-shuffle feature, the iPod classic doesn't feel new or innovative. Rather, it's a tested and reliable way to carry around your...

Lots of storage capacity; impressive battery performance; Genius playlist support; browse album and artist features; slightly brighter display; charges with FireWire connection.
Doesn’t include such cool new iPod nano features as accelerometer or spoken menus; those with large media libraries may mourn the loss of the 160GB classic.

The world witnessed the first iPod in 2001. It was a stylish music player that could barely store a thousand odd songs (which, in those days, was pretty large). As years passed by, we saw various iterations of the iPod emerge like the Mini, the Nano, t...

Huge storage space, improved interface, fast data transfer, good battery life, value for money.
Click-wheel accuracy lower than previous models, bundled ear-phones could have been better, no major additions to the feature-list.
The 160 GB version of the iPod Classic is selling for a street price of around Rs. 15,000 and the 80 GB one sells for Rs. 11,500 (approx). Other hard drive-based players in this price range include the Creative Zen Vision:M and the Microsoft Zune (whic...

Say so long to the scratch-prone plastic. Thinner than ever. Improved software interface. Excellent screen.

The iPod Classic is just like the Video iPod, only slimmer, tougher, and injected with a more visually rich graphic user interface.

The iPod Classic is just like the Video iPod, only slimmer, tougher, and injected with a more visually rich graphic user interface.
Video output now requires a proprietary cable; audio quality has not improved; some older iPod video accessories may not be compatible; users are required to use the latest version of iTunes, which may not work on some older computer systems.
The iPod Classic is a refinement of the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and advanced user interface.
