- grimfandango, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8good article, but I really hate it when articles are broken into multiple pages.
- tony3011, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Very informative article. Thanks for all the pictures (especially the ones showing the new and old earphones side by side... I was wondering what they looked like!).
- TTLKurtis, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Yeah I wanted to make sure we showed a photo of the new earbuds next to the old ones so you can see the difference. I also took several photos of the menu system and the new search functionality and made an animation out of it on one of the pages. Glad you enjoyed the article. :)
- Quix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I don't understand how "price premium" can be a con when the iPod nanos are priced pretty much the same as competitors' models with the same capacities. What difference does profit margin make to the consumer when the alternatives are comparably priced?

- maverick808, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I have the black 8gb model filled to capacity and yeah, the search feature is totally useless. Since I'll never use it I wouldn't mind if it wasn't there, and if that meant Apple could spend time implementing a new feature I would find useful then great.
- TTLKurtis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3lol... well we had to buy the nano, and we have a much smaller budget than anandtech, so no broken ipod photos for you. :-P
As for some people's comments about some of the Cons in the end of the review, keep in mind that we put what we feel our negative aspects of a product. Each con may not be equally weighted. You need to read at least the conclusion, if not the whole article, to get a sense of how important each Pro and Con is. - dogfukka, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Well at last they have me - the 8Gig is my first MP3 player after having waited for the size to get down and the memory to ramp up, and I'm over the moon with it

Great picture, new reflected by old. :-) - danny520, on 05/20/2008, -0/+2In your hand, the Nano remains as tiny as ever. Old and new models aren't identically dimensioned, but the difference is marginal. The new version has the rounded sides of the Mini rather than the flatter sides of the first-generation Nano, but it doesn't make the new device seem any smaller, or any more comfortable to use, I found. It's not like the first Nano's edges were harsh, as they were on the very first hard drive-based iPods.
Round or flat is a matter of personal preference, of course. However, all Nano users are likely to appreciate the new model's larger Hold slider, which is easier to move than its predecessor, though it isn't raised any further above the top of the player.
On the base, the earphone http://www.easyipodshop.com/easyipodshop-brand-102 ...
socket is once again placed on the left-hand side, but it's slightly further away from the dock connector than was the case with the original nano, so expect to have to replace some of your accessories if you upgrade to a 2G model.
The click-wheel works much as before, but there's a neat new touch: the central button is slightly concave, which makes it easier to locate and press by touch alone, and simply feels better. It's second only to having a raised centre button, but at least there's no risk here of accidental presses. - h3xley, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Hmm nice article, but what's with putting "Search feature isn't terribly useful on small capacity iPods" as a con, would he prefer Apple didn't provide the feature at all on the iPod nano?
- beni, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3The Anandtech review was way better. They broke it and then took it apart!
- shockingbird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Skip to page two to get to the meat.
- kris101, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Good article- I normally go to www.ilounge.com as they do a pretty good reviews too with lots of pictures. I'd put a link in but I have rubbish computer skills!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Do these ones still have screens caving in?
- forrman, on 10/12/2007, -5/+4"One of the new audio features with iTunes 7 is gapless playback. To test this out, I configured some of my songs as gapless (in the options tab of the Get Info context item on a song or songs), and played them on each iPod nano. iTunes 7 can also automatically detect gapless playback. Gapless playback worked as expected, flowing from one track into the next without any gaps or crossfading. Finally, justice can be done to Dark Side of the Moon on a portable music player."
Too bad he never had a Rio Karma - that did gapless from day 1 and was the de facto standard for anyone who cared about the music they listened to. - AdarshMZ, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2If you look closely at the pictures it seems as if they do.
