Editorial Review
With 80GB or 160GB of storage, iPod classic gives your music and video room to move. It also has plenty of energy (up to 40 hours of audio playback), good looks (a sleek, all-metal design), and a great personality (a brand-new interface with Cover Flow). In other words, iPod classic makes an ideal companion.

Cover Flow
If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod classic, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to flip it over and see the track list.

Here is what people are saying about the Apple 80 GB iPod classic (Black)
5 Star Rating  "Completely worth every penny"2009-11-15
- Reviewed By User: AL3KIEU80WQNI
Apple iPod classic 80 GB Black (6th Generation) OLD MODEL has got to be my favorite portable music,video, and photo device. The reason for me purchasing a iPod classic and not a iTouch is because I have always enjoyed watching movies more than anything else; ofcourse you can watch movies on a iTouch with a larger screen. But the highest amount of GB is about 26 GB on the iTouch.Unlike its predecessors the Apple iPod classic 80 GB Black (6th Generation) OLD MODEL has even greater battery life for watching movies, and will last about all day. Except playing games does lower the battery quicker because it requires more interface, and is just battery consuming. I have only about 25 GB space left over on my iPod.With all the movies, shows, music, pictures, and more. I use this iPod everywhere I go. While on the my way to College or just plugging it to my car. I have not hade any single problems with my iPod and will recommend this product to anyone who enjoys a quality product for your buck. Also purchased the iPod 30 or 80 GB iPod Classic Bundle 15 accessories. Was also worth every penny check it out if your deciding on this product.If you do enjoy movies and do not want to pay about 4.99 for each movie on iTunes. Then you might want to purchase a iPod Video Converter. I recommend Xilisoft Video Converter, but you might need to purchase a registration code. This product will save you in the long run of purchasing movies on iTunes.It will burn DVDs to your iPod in just a little amount of time with no extra payments needed.

5 Star Rating  "I can't imagine buying any other mp3 device"2009-09-18
- Reviewed By marblehead72
I bought this 160 GB ipod two years ago, and this thing is just a tank. It never fails and I use it every single day of my life. I seriously wouldn't understand anyone ever buying an mp3 device that isn't called "iPod". I measure a purchase in its ability to innovate, and to last for a very long time under heavy usage. I have hauled this thing to work, school, clubs, restaurants, and friends houses while dropping it, sitting on it, and jogging with it down the street. It still starts every day without a hitch, and mocks me and my inadvertent attempts to slow its never-ending production and execution. Seriously, why would you consider anything else? If you have a huge music collection as I do, nothing else substitutes for this 160 GB model. Mp3 perfection.
 
4 Star Rating  "A great iPod, despite its flaws, and despite the distinction of being "the worst selling iPod ever.""2009-09-17
- Reviewed By cyrax9
NOTICE: This review is for the OLD 2007 160GB iPod Classic, NOT the NEW 2009 160GB iPod Classic!

I admittedly was not going to purchase the 2007 160GB iPod Classic when I first saw it; my reaction was along the lines of "Apple will just release a 200GB+ model next year," so I decided to wait for a model I believed would be released in 2008; I was wrong. When Apple released their 120GB iPod Classic, I ordered it right away, but fearing that my music collection would grow faster than the space on my iPod, I picked up the 2007 160GB iPod Classic on clearance roughly two weeks after purchasing the 120GB model. (I've since purchased the new 2009 160GB Model, which is my favorite iPod to date.)

First, it's worth noting that this iPod carries the status of the "worst selling iPod ever," at least the 160GB Model does. However, the capacity of this iPod is simply unmatched. The 160GB model was two years ahead of its time capacity-wise, and if it weren't for all of the bugs that these iPods had before the firmware update, they'd easily be on par with this year's 160GB model.

In spite of all of its flaws, the 160GB iPod Classic from 2007 really is a nice iPod. Up until this year, if you wanted an iPod that was larger than 120GB, this was the only model available to you without performing unauthorized modifications to the device. What's more, the fact that this iPod doubles as an external hard drive is a major plus in my book, because it allows me to carry fewer devices on me.

As another reviewer noted, there is a firmware update that fixes many of the problems with this iPod; however, that fact that it needs a firmware update at all, and that problems were so rampant on the 160GB model make this device seem very poorly designed, and very un-Apple like, which is probably why they dropped it in the first place. This brings me to the iPod's caveats, and there are plenty of them.

First, Cover Flow is outright slow. The simple solution would be to not use Cover Flow, and to browse your iPod using another method. The second caveat is the fact that on many of these iPods, the hard drive would continue to spin even after the device was turned "off," effectively draining the battery and reducing the life of the hard drive. My solution was just to keep this constantly "docked" to my computer, which effectively kept it from running off of the battery. While the firmware update has fixed this problem on most 160GB iPod Classics from 2007, every so often I run into someone whose still wrangling with battery issues. Another problem is the semi-unresponsive Clickwheel, which was also fixed in the firmware update, although compared to the 120GB model from 2008 and the new 160GB model released this September, there's still a noticeable lag in the Clickwheel, albeit far less noticeable than before the firmware update. The last real caveat though, the one that irks me the most and caused me to purchase the 120GB model from 2008, is the lack of "Genius" functionality on this iPod. I realize that "Genius" didn't exist when this iPod was released, but I was a bit disappointed that Apple didn't issue a firmware update to add Genius support to this iPod, and to further improve the responsiveness of the Clickwheel. A short list of pros and cons can be found below:


Pros: Largest iPod Capacity-wise (sharing this honor with the new model that just came out,) longest battery life of any iPod, (the new 160GB model has a slightly shorter battery life because it uses a slightly smaller battery,) doubles as an external hard drive.

Cons: Bugs are common and may or may not be fixed via a firmware update, more expensive than newer iPods, no "Genius" feature or firmware update for said feature, and the dual-platter hard drive (160GB model) has more moving parts than the single-platter models and thus, twice as much of a chance of breaking on you.

The verdict: If 36 hours of music or 6 hours of video at a time are enough for you, go with the new 2009 160GB iPod Classic. It's less expensive than the 2007 model, more reliable, and more feature-rich overall, not to mention the fact that it has "Genius" support and is slightly smaller because it's a single-platter model. If you absolutely must have 40 hours of music or 7 hours of video on your iPod, go with the 160GB model from 2007, but be aware of the problems that you may run into, and seriously ask yourself if that battery life is worth spending an additional $350.95. Unless you spend most of your life on transcontinental flights, the new 160GB model that just came out is far superior to this iPod in every way imaginable. All in all, I give this device four out of five stars, because even with the problems that it had, up until this month, it was the only iPod that could hold many people's entire music collections, and it still has the longest battery life of any iPod, which is an honor that cancels out the "honor" of being the "worst selling iPod ever." Again, unless you need that extra battery capacity or collect iPods, go with the new 160GB model over this one and save yourself some cash.

- Reviewed By vectorgen
I bought this model as a gift for my wife, who quickly filled up her Nano and needed additional space for her burgeoning music collection. We are happy to report this has given us no problems and holds a cavernous amount of material, it's only half full and she has hundreds of discs already imported. Some complain about the slow response time, but this includes a tiny optical drive which performs flawlessly but with a slight "lag" compared to the flash compact memories of the smaller editions. It never seemed an issue to us, and for the massive space was a great trade off in our opinion. We did get a protective case to prevent scratches and fingerprints which are easy to see on the beautiful black case. Still performing like a champion, I highly recommend the 160GB iPod. I hope to inherit this one when she upgrades to an even fancier one. Battery life is fine, it still lasts all day, and syncs to iTunes (we use a Mac at home) with ease.
