Customer Review: iPod or Coby?
Summary: 5 Stars
Let me tell you a little about myself: I'm 16 years old and I listen to music every day on the bus to school. I am an avid apple user and I recently got a new MacBook (which I love) however, last Christmas when my old iPod was getting on and I needed more storage I didn't want to put my parents under pressure by asking them to get me a rather expensive iPod, instead, to replace my old iPod mini (it's very retro now!) I asked for this.
As soon as I opened it I found it easy to use and navigate. I'm not quite used to touch screens and so the buttons required me to adapt slightly, however, I was overall pleased with it. I used it frequently and it was also easy to just plug into my computer and upload my latest songs.
However, the real test came this summer. I got a new computer this summer (as I previously stated) a MacBook, which came with a free iPod touch. Now, not many mp3 players can compete with the iPod touch. I used it for internet, pictures, movies, games and more, however, it was only 8gb and a lot of that was taken up by things other than music and so I couldn't fit my whole library on there.
This was the point at which I dug out this again. It's perfect, light weight and easy to use. I now use this every day instead of my iPod and I save the iPod for times when I'll need internet connection or games.
If I was choosing to buy an iPod (purely for music) or this, then I would go for this any day. For a start, the lead is easier and cheaper to replace. It looks and works pretty much just like an iPod does and it's much less expensive! I now use mine every day, instead of my iPod, although I have to admit that if my iPod had more storage then I might be using it, simply because I'm slightly better at operating it, however, the cost advantages with this are incredibly persuasive!
In conclusion, if you are more used to iPods and you can afford them, then you might as well get one of them. But if you're not used to them or you just don't really want to fork out all the extra money, then don't hesitate to purchase this, it will be money well spent!
