Customer Review: Ipod Mini is at the front of the digital music revolution
Summary: 5 Stars
I love MP3 players, and I have practically traveled across the entire industry to find one the perfect one. I think I may have finally found it. The Ipod Mini (Silver) seems to be everything I could have ever wanted in a music player. It's compact; it has an intuitive design for navigating the player (the revolutionary `click-wheel' technology); it's light (which makes it perfect for workout); it has an amazing capacity for songs (4GB; approx 1000 songs) for a player so small; and, it just plain looks cool.
My Ipod Mini was a birthday gift, and certainly one of the best I've ever gotten. The sound quality that this player provides is nothing short of amazing. While listening to my Ipod Mini, I've listened to songs that have been favorites of mine for years and I have heard hundreds (maybe thousands) of times. Yet, when I hear them on this player, there are layers of sound that are new to me, and the songs all have a richness to them that I have never experienced before. The sound quality alone is reason enough to get an Ipod Mini (or any Ipod for that matter).
Its capacity of 4GB (approx 1000 songs) may seem low in comparison with its larger (in actually size and song capacity) cousins: the 20GB and 40 GB Ipods. Yet, unless your goal is to put your entire CD collection on the player, the 4GB size is more than enough. You must also consider the fact that this player is smaller in overall size, meaning the technology inside is miniaturized and there are fewer moving parts (a definite plus when working out). I've had this player for over three months and between songs I have downloaded, select songs from CDs that I want, and complete albums that I've put on the player, I've barely exceeded 500 songs. Thus, I have nearly half the player's capacity left. Since the Ipod Mini can also act like a portable hard drive and hold text documents and contact information, I will have plenty of space to put those files, too.
The navigation of the Ipod Mini is pretty impressive. Its `click-wheel' technology lets you scroll through your entire library of songs with just the lightest touch of the device. While on a song, you can use the middle button to scroll through play/volume mode, play/song length mode, and `rate the song' mode, using the `click-wheel' scroll to adjust the volume, advance or rewind the song, or give it a rating based on a 5-star scale. The actually click icons on the wheel allow you pause/play a song, advance to a new song or return to a previous track, or go back to the previous menu.
The menu structure is very consumer-friendly. It starts at the very top with access to the Ipod Mini's different features and then moves down to different ways of navigating those features. The music menu allows you to access your songs by album, artist, song title, genres, composers, and playlists. The Playlist is an ingenious feature that allows you organize your songs in any manner you see fit. You could create one playlist of, say, 50 songs to listen to while working, while having another playlist of 100 completely different songs that you like to listen to on the job. There's even an `on-the-go' playlist feature that lets you just add songs to the on-the-go playlist as you listen.
The only aspect that I find less than stellar is the iTunes software interface. This is not a problem with the player. It is just that the iTunes software, which enables the upload of songs from the computer to the player, is not nearly as intuitive to work with as the Ipod Mini is. This is a minor concern, however. You adapt quickly to using iTunes and then it's just another extension of this great player.
Other than that, the battery life is pretty solid and the built-in battery recharges fairly fast. Plus, there are also a plethora of accessories to enhance the Ipod Mini experience. This player comes in 5 separate colors (Gold, Pink, Blue, and Green, in addition to Silver), and each one has its own personality to match that of its owner.
This is a fantastic MP3 player and is at the very topic of the digital music food chain. For anyone looking for a top of the line music player, look no further. Your journey has ended.
