Condition as advertised, works fine. i...Tunes only syncs some of my songs, but not all. I have to work on that. Bluetooth generic airpods work fine, and sound good. Some apps that I wanted to load won't install because they want a newer version of the OS. I guess that's what you get for buying an obsolete product. I thought I read that the version 4 has a radio, but it doesn't. Don't know about battery life yet - need to use it more to find out.

Really disappointed in... the sound quality of this. I have a very old iPod Nano that I love, and it is starting to fail, so I needed something to replace it and wanted a larger screen but needed to stay with the 30 pin connector so I could use it with my iHome docking station. The 4th gen iPod is the last one to use this. The sound is not anywhere near as good as the 3rd gen iPod Nano that I have that is about 10+ years old. Not sure if it's just this particular one since I bought it used,but I really don't think I would buy this type again.

I am over 50, and like electronic g...adgets. I had only used "hand me down" IPODS from my kids over the years - they got the new ones. I have been using my DROID2 phone as my music player, but it got too cumbersome if I was working out and my phone rang - interrupting the music, etc. I finally jumped in with both feet and bought my new IPOD Touch (32gb). More $$'s than I originally wanted to spend, but finally decided to get something that I will use for years. It took about 45-60 minutes at the beginning to set it up, but the item is fairly easy to understand and easy to use. I loaded up over 3,300 songs - more than I really need, but I love the variety, some pictures of the family, a game and took a few pictures; all in the first 24 hours of owning it and it appears to work like a charm and still have over 1/2 of the memory left. The pictures are decent quality (not like my high-end digital camera, but fine for facebook, sharing, etc) but extrememely easy to take, erase, share, etc. Video is very easy to take and quality is good. Access to the internet was very simple - I have wireless in my house and it set up in less than 1 minute. Battery life has been bragged on by others and is one of the reason for choosing an Apple product over others. Another reason for an Apple product is that there are so many accessories that can be used in conjunction with an IPOD vs. some others. Overall, very impressed with the item and would recommend to others - if you are willing to invest in a product for it's features and benefits. I thought the Touch would be something I could use for years to come.
I bought this ipod because i needed something small and versat...ile with multiple features like viewing emails, listening to music, skype, games, etc...... this thing is very thin and compact, you can take it anywhere and use it anything! The screen is very great and is very hard to scratch but very easy to clean. Thee back of it is a reflective metal like nickle that scratches very fast thats one disadvantage about it! The battery life is however very short compared to older models. I've had the 1st and the 2nd generation in the past and they would both go for 2 days with god use, this one (the 4th gen) barely scrapes 1 day with good usage, that realy sucks with this because i have to charge it every day! Overall this is a great product except for the battery life which sucks.. But its worth the buy!
Where do I start? I bought this for my girlfri...end, whose oohs and ahhs over my 2nd gen touch prompted me to get this for her birthday. The iPod touch has really become the new standard in portable media players, cannibalizing the competition. The new updates such as the retina display and LED backlighting make images as lifelike as possible—I can’t even see the pixels when I hold it up to my eye. Games look better, interface is cleaner, and album art just “pops.” The system is snappy, and switching apps is a breeze. The update to 4.1 brought multitasking, and I have to say I can’t imagine living without it. It’s mostly just listening to pandora while surfing the web, but it’s still a welcome addition. The cameras are just so-so, and don’t really hold a candle to the iPhone’s REAL HD back cam with flash. But perfectly adequate for VGA quality. Facetime doesn’t really need a high quality cam anyway. Its frame is even thinner than the previous generation’s, but the back is still a glossy fingerprint/scratch magnet. It would have been nice to see the oleo phobic coating and IPS display of the iPhone, but I’m sure this minor complaint will go unnoticed my most people. 512 Megabytes of memory would also be nice to match the iPhone 4, but in everyday use, I never noticed any lag when playing music or running games. As with most flash memory media players, space is an issue for audiophiles, but Apple’s done a really good job of marketing this iPod as a universal tool, not a niche music player. This iPod isn’t perfect, but it’s damn near close. If my own touch weren’t in perfect working condition, I’d snap one of these babies up in a heartbeat.
