Compared to other mp3 players and iPod models, this iPod classic has the largest storage capacity. It also has the longest battery lifespan of up to 36 hours of audio playback.

The Pros:

As mentioned, the iPod classic has a very large storage capacity than any other mp3 player. It also has the longest battery lifespan and very eco-friendly. It has greatly enhanced from its previous versions.

The Cons:

The downside is that it has no camera, lesser applications. It is also a hard drive, which means it has a lot of moveable parts so it is not good to use when you want to jog in the morning. Compared to the 5th generation iPod Classic, this iPod sounds less good. If you have too many music files stored, you might find browsing your music kind of slower.

Bottom line:

This is the best mp3 player in terms of storage. If you can’t get enough of just having 32 GB of storage I would recommend this one. However, if you are more into the quality of the sound rather than the storage capacity, then you may want to consider the 5th generation iPod classic.

Rating:

**** 4/5 stars

Overall, I would rate this mp3 player 4 out of 5 stars. This is because of its great storage capacity despite of its slow album art browsing and a not so satisfying audio quality.
