Perfect perfect gift

by machinehien , Nov 27 '04
Pros: Great design and use of aluminum. Click Wheel rocks! Great interface. iTunes. Nothing comes close.
Cons: 4GB too small for serious users. Needs dock, standard. Next-gen should have new colors.
After I got my 40 GB ipod, my wife inherited my old 10 GB iPod. Thought everything was great, but no. She wears hers at work all day long while running errands around the office. After a while the bulk of the full size ...

iPod Mini - Not for everyone, but I love it!

by puppyoneb , May 27 '04
Pros: Compact design, aluminum body, new click wheel interface, color, backlit LCD
Cons: Can't use some iPod accessories, 8 HR battery life, cannot replace battery
People say that, for what you get, the iPod Mini is overpriced compared to other "compact" mp3 players. I spent some time researching alternatives. For $50 more one can purchase a regular iPod with more capacity. There are a few mp3 players that have ...

iPod Mini: Disposable or Not?

by garethusa Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jul 12 '04
Pros: Lite, super compact, colorful, price, perfect size, Apple Customer Support
Cons: Availability, delicate, playback time, battery replacement /disposable debate
I very recently purchased an iPod 40GB that took my breath away and broke my heart in about ten days. (See my review: My Sweet iPod, RIP......here on epinions.com.) After much restless mental debate about whether to get another iPod, I decided to cut ...

iProd: The cattle prod that no longer plays music

by towel401 , Jan 12 '05
Pros: Clickeywheel!, Firewire, Mass storage, design, user interface, mp3 support (unlike sony)
Cons: iTunes/DRM, Over dependence on ID3, internal battery. BREAKS WHEN DROPPED 3 FEET
Update: Drop it 3 feet and it breaks - i dropped mine onto the floor yesterday and it gave up the ghost 10 minutes later - I knew those little harddrives were bad news all along. Unfortunately the regulations that would prevent this kind of poor ...

The legendary iPod, SMALLER!

by reign , Feb 25 '04
Pros: Just about everything.
Cons: Price and Battery Life (kinda)
If you're into the world of portable music, or the world of MP3s for that matter, or... watch TV for that matter; you've undoubtedly heard of Apple's iPod. Well, the new Mini just hit the market this past Friday, January 20th, with a bang. Enticing ...

Music on the Go

by jedi29 , Mar 15 '04
Pros: Size, sound quality, ease of use, click wheel, sturdy, backlit LCD
Cons: Expensive, size, battery life
The iPod mini is Apple’s latest MP3 player. It has a 4 GB hard drive with 3.7 GB of actual available space. I bought one the first week they came out. I was reeled in by the idea of being able to take my music collection wherever I go. At 249.95 ...

Dump your Md, CD or cassette players.

by girlflesh , Nov 28 '04
Pros: Easy navigation, pretty colors, small & light.
Cons: battery power, deleted files.
I'll skip the technical details that everyone else have already given about the Ipod. We all knows it stores around 1000 songs (4 gigs) with other features like a calender, games, alarms, and it can act as a hard drive for you MAC computer files. ...

by ryannel2001 , Jun 26 '05
Pros: Beautiful Design, Easy to use, scroll wheel, Apple support rocks!
Cons: Battery life, 4 iPod Mini replacements through AppleCare!!! :(.
I recently bought a Silver iPod Mini 4GB from the Apple Certified Refurbished Store. I ordered it on the 15th, and recieved it on the 22nd. I was so happy when it came out of the box. It was the coolest looking little device I had ever seen. What I did ...

Small, Slick, Expensive.

by flindingo , Mar 18 '04
Pros: Stylish, light, intuitive interface.
Cons: Price, Pending Battery Longevity.
Being a big fan of the iPOD which is a great device in it's own right, the iPOD mini is the new addition to the series. Sure it's small, stylish, easy to use, but with a 250$ price tag, it doesn't seem to justify. First of all the original iPODs ...

Six months and still happy with it

by mannyfeller , Jan 18 '05
Pros: Small, durable, easy to use, good sound, ample storage and snazzy looking!
Cons: Earbuds, low battery life, pricey.
I bought my mini in June, primarily as a means to help keep me entertained when I work out at the gym or take walks. I did a lot of research and felt that the actual size of the unit, combined with its capacity, would best suit my needs. I haven't been ...

iPod mini - innovation at it's best!

by neilito2000 , Dec 20 '04
Pros: Size, Innovative Controls, Accessories, Right Storage Size for Me
Cons: Software Still Working Through Some Bugs, Average Battery Life
I just received my iPod mini this week and so far I am loving it. I chose the mini over the standard because I used iTunes to catalog all of my favorite songs and found that I had a list of about 700, which will easily fit on this device. For those ...

An excellent product for music lovers

by lazylatvian , Feb 19 '05
Pros: 1,000 songs, extremely small, stylish, easy to use, very durable
Cons: Price, earphones that come with are poor
I have had an iPod mini ever since they came out a year ago. It has gone through much and gone to many places. This is also the first Apple product I have ever owned as well. I am extremely pleased with its performance so far. The sound quality is ...

Troubling experience with iPOD

by drosse67 , Jan 30 '05
Pros: I have not been able to use the iPOD so there are no "pros" yet.
Cons: "One free call" to Apple for support is ridiculous. Installation process is needlessly complicated.
I bought the iPOD Mini yesterday around noon and by 8:30 PM, after messing with it all day, I am ready to return it. I am convinced that I have a defective unit. I am a rather computer literate person, but this one baffles me. In a nutshell, here is ...

iPod Mini Proves Once and for all That Size Truly Does Not Matter

by xsprngx , Oct 17 '04
Pros: Small, compact, colors!, great sound, ideal for users with fewer songs, available now!
Cons: Only 8 hours battery life, $250 is only OK price
The iPod mini is a colorful, chic, 4GB baby brother to Apple's massively successful iPod. The iPod mini is smaller, lighter, and offers a choice in color for appeal to personal taste. Apple created the mini knowing that not everyone has 10,000 digital ...

iPod Mini a Success?

by YodaX , Apr 11 '04
Pros: Slim, Portable, High storage capacity, Easy to use
Cons: Battery, High cost for accessories and Unit.
I currently work at CompUSA. Although we sell many different items, I sell many iPods. The mini iPod is a fantastic unit. Not only is it small and compatible with everyday life activities, but it holds enough songs to satisfy a person for months. The 4 ...
