The 160GB iPod classic (Silver) from Apple is the stalwart anchor of the iPod line. Offering the most storage of any iPod, the hard drive-based classic puts up to 40,000 songs, 200 hours of video, or 25,000 photos into your pocket. The classic features a bright 2.5" LCD screen, which displays album artwork and song information when playing music. You'll be able to navigate through music using a standard playlist menu, or through the gorgeous Cover Flow system, which displays a virtual wall of your digital album covers on the iPod's color screen.

Navigation is achieved using the venerable Click Wheel interface, which allows you to scroll through music and playlists by rotating your finger across its smooth surface. Simply click one of the 5 controls -- the unlabeled center button, Play/Pause in the 6 o'clock position, Previous at 9 o'clock, Next at 3 o'clock, and Menu at 12 o'clock -- to work your way through the intuitive menu system. To turn the device off, simply hold play for a few seconds. A physical "Hold" switch is located on the top of the device, allowing you to lock the controls to prevent an accidental song change or volume adjustment.

The iPod works with Apple's iTunes software, included with every Mac and available as a free download for Windows, to manage your music library. In addition to syncing your music library between your computer and portable device, iTunes syncs your calendars, contacts, notes, and games.

Like most current iPods, the classic connects to a computer and other peripheral devices using the Dock connector. This opens it up for use with a world of peripherals, including speaker docks, Bluetooth headphone adapters, and more. It includes a Dock to USB cable, allowing you to sync and charge the device with your Mac or PC.

The integrated battery can provide up to 36 hours of audio playback, or 6 hours of video playback, on a single charge. You'll be able to charge the device to 80% capacity in as little as 2 hours, and to full capacity in only 4 hours.

The iPod classic isn't just a media player. If you delve into its "Extras" menu, you will find that it sports the aforementioned calendar, contact list, notes, and games. It ships free with 3 games -- Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike solitaire -- with more games available for purchase in iTunes. You can also set the iPod's time zone and create custom alarms for yourself. A sleep timer is available, allowing you to automatically turn the iPod off after a certain amount of time has passed -- as little as 15 minutes or as much as 2 hours. You'll also be able to access a stopwatch function, perfect for timing steeping time for the perfect cup of tea, and a screen lock function to prevent unauthorized access.

The Settings menu allows you to control all aspects of your iPod's functionality. You'll be able to use it to control shuffle and repeat functions, customize what items appear on menus, and adjust playback speed of audio books, perfect for those times when you only have a few hours of time to finish listening to the audio version of Anna Karenina.

The Settings menu also allows you to adjust the playback EQ, set the date and time, and control whether or not the iPod makes an audible 'click' while scrolling. You can also adjust music sorting order, LCD brightness, and set a volume limit, ensuring that you don't accidentally blow out your eardrums by setting the volume too high.

Triggering the iPod's Genius feature when listening to a song will automatically create a playlist from other music in your library that goes well with what you're listening to. You'll even be able to save a Genius playlist for future use, or create another if the first attempt isn't quite smart enough for you
The iPod classic's massive 160GB hard drive can store up to 40,000 songs, 200 hours of video, or 25,000 photos. If your media library isn't that large, you can enable disk use for the iPod in iTunes, allowing you to use it as a standard portable hard drive in addition to a media player
You'll get up to 36 hours of battery life for audio, 6 for video, ensuring that you can use the device for extended periods without having to recharge
The Click Wheel interface allows you to navigate through the iPod's menu system with ease. You can browse album art via the Cover Flow system, or navigate songs and videos by playlist, artist, album, genre, and more. You'll be able to search for specific titles and artists via an on-screen keyboard. If you're unsure as to what you'd like to listen, simply select the Shuffle Songs settings to take a randomized tour through your music library
The iPod's vivid 2.5" LCD display brings videos to life. From within iTunes you can purchase or rent movies, buy TV shows, and download video podcasts. They will be automatically copied to your iPod when you sync, allowing you to enjoy them at your leisure
Sometimes there's nothing like a good game to relax or tease your brain. The iPod classic ships with 3 installed games -- Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike -- but more can be purchased from the iTunes store. Every iPod game is specifically designed to be played using the Click Wheel interface
The iPod classic is a great way to share your digital photos with friends and family. It syncs photos from your pictures folder or iPhoto library on a Mac, or from your My Pictures folder, Adobe Photoshop Album, or Adobe Photoshop Elements software for Windows. You can display photo slideshows, complete with music and transitions, on the iPod classic, and output to a TV using an optional component or composite AV cable

    I needed a portable player that could handle my uncompressed music collection. The iPod Classic was the best fit.

    After organizing my music with i-tunes it synced without a hitch. I can go close to three days on a single charge since I listen to music. I select from my play list and go from there. The video part of the iPod has very good image quality if you don't mind the 2 inch screen.

    I highly recommend first you read the manual to learn what it can do, you may need to go to Apple's website to download the manual and also recommend getting earphones with volume control. If you use the volume limiter, the sounds may be a little soft.

    It is easy to navigate through the menu to make selections. The best feature I use is the sleep timer, I can go to sleep to some relaxing music and it will shut off at a preset time.

    My downside of it are some of the extras like a stopwatch, games and voice recorder which I don't use or need. You do not get the full 160GB as advertised, but rather 148GB. There are only preset EQ settings and not a custom setting option so you will have to listen to the settings to find what will work best.

    The reason for not giving it 5 stars because of price for such a simple and straight forward device as the iPod Classic and not getting 160GB.

    Yet it is a fantastic choice if you want a player for music on the go.

    I am not fully happy with this product, I am tempted to return if for a full refund because I am unhappy with the features it has. I had the iPod 5th generation in which broke on me for no reason and quit working on me. So I purchased this iPod classic because I did not want the other nano they have on the market. THe radio features and shuffle features were great but on the classic ipod are very poor. The only good thing about this product that is that you can store a lot of music on here but for using it it really is NOT my favorite music option to really use anymore.

            Comments about Apple 160GB iPod classic (Silver, Current Model):

            The Classic model iPod (160GB), despite its age, is quite simply the most indispensible product for those with large audio libraries. The storage space is obviously copious, and that includes what would appear to be plenty of space for video files and photos as well.The navigation using the click wheel is, of course, similar to Apple's other iPods, and is relatively easy to learn for newcomers to the product line. The songs are easy to find using the navigation, and the other features are easy and handy as well for playback and setting for the product itself.The sound is superb as well, though the included headphones are Apple's standard model, and it's likely that a higher-end pair would probably yield even better audio playback.The display screen is also very detailed, giving videos a kind of clarity that one would not necessarily expect.All in all, a great product that I have made use of immediately. It should last me for quite some time.

              I'm very happy with it. The battery is still running on it's first charge-over 20 hours and running; my 5 year old 32G runs for only 3 hours between recharges (and I've replaced the battery once). I had no problems loading my music library to it and adding new CDs.

                          Old IPod died...needed a new one...B&H's was a little cheaper. Delivery was fast, too!

                                  Just more space, none of the app perks. Could use better sound. Seem reliabe. The pictures for the albmuns don't show on lists.

                                    User friendly. Great capacity for your entire music or photo library. Sure you can have music on your iPhone but eventually you will need to change phones. You do not have to worry about that when you have an iPod. I like the external drive connectability feature. Highly recommended.

                                              If you are simply recording music and video (that's what I'm doing) , the iPod is easy to load by synching with a Mac computer. Otherwise, though, like all iPods, the controls are not intuitively obvious and not that easy to manipulate if you're over thirty. But the sound and storage capability more than compensate.

                                                I hesitated for a long time acquiring an Apple product. I had a Microsoft Zune for years. Their customer service is HORRIBLE!!! I saw this 160G and had to have it. I love it!!! Better organization of music files...stays where you left it when you turn it off (Zune loses its settings after two days), the features are great, and the sound is fantastic!!!

                                                  I needed a portable player that could handle my uncompressed music collection. The iPod Classic was the best fit.

                                                  After organizing my music with i-tunes it synced without a hitch. I can go close to three days on a single charge since I listen to music. I select from my play list and go from there. The video part of the iPod has very good image quality if you don't mind the 2 inch screen.

                                                  I highly recommend first you read the manual to learn what it can do, you may need to go to Apple's website to download the manual and also recommend getting earphones with volume control. If you use the volume limiter, the sounds may be a little soft.

                                                  It is easy to navigate through the menu to make selections. The best feature I use is the sleep timer, I can go to sleep to some relaxing music and it will shut off at a preset time.

                                                  My downside of it are some of the extras like a stopwatch, games and voice recorder which I don't use or need. You do not get the full 160GB as advertised, but rather 148GB. There are only preset EQ settings and not a custom setting option so you will have to listen to the settings to find what will work best.

                                                  The reason for not giving it 5 stars because of price for such a simple and straight forward device as the iPod Classic and not getting 160GB.

                                                  Yet it is a fantastic choice if you want a player for music on the go.

                                                  I am not fully happy with this product, I am tempted to return if for a full refund because I am unhappy with the features it has. I had the iPod 5th generation in which broke on me for no reason and quit working on me. So I purchased this iPod classic because I did not want the other nano they have on the market. THe radio features and shuffle features were great but on the classic ipod are very poor. The only good thing about this product that is that you can store a lot of music on here but for using it it really is NOT my favorite music option to really use anymore.

                                                          The Classic model iPod (160GB), despite its age, is quite simply the most indispensible product for those with large audio libraries. The storage space is obviously copious, and that includes what would appear to be plenty of space for video files and photos as well.The navigation using the click wheel is, of course, similar to Apple's other iPods, and is relatively easy to learn for newcomers to the product line. The songs are easy to find using the navigation, and the other features are easy and handy as well for playback and setting for the product itself.The sound is superb as well, though the included headphones are Apple's standard model, and it's likely that a higher-end pair would probably yield even better audio playback.The display screen is also very detailed, giving videos a kind of clarity that one would not necessarily expect.All in all, a great product that I have made use of immediately. It should last me for quite some time.

                                                            I'm very happy with it. The battery is still running on it's first charge-over 20 hours and running; my 5 year old 32G runs for only 3 hours between recharges (and I've replaced the battery once). I had no problems loading my music library to it and adding new CDs.

Sure you can have music on your iPhone but eventually you will need to change phones. You do not have to worry about that when you have an iPod. I like the external drive connectability feature. Highly recommended.

Otherwise, though, like all iPods, the controls are not intuitively obvious and not that easy to manipulate if you're over thirty. But the sound and storage capability more than compensate.

Their customer service is HORRIBLE!!! I saw this 160G and had to have it. I love it!!! Better organization of music files...stays where you left it when you turn it off (Zune loses its settings after two days), the features are great, and the sound is fantastic!!!
