Apple iPod touch 7th Generation Reviews

Pocket Storage

By James
Rated 4 out of 5

Nice to have 200gb of Books, Movies, Audiobooks, and Pics all in my pocket for travel days. One star demerit for battery life. Take a solar battery charger with you.

Nice upgrade on a classic

There's a modest speed upgrade, and a big bump in storage. Of course, the iPod Touch is close to perfect.

Big Differance from 5th Gen

Having lived with the 5th Gen since 2012, I can now update old apps and the speed on this is incredible. My old one was 64GB. I now have the storage for all my music and Photos. It is a pleasure to run the newer apps and be able play games faster than ever.

Love this iPod!

The iPod touch (7th Generation) has exceeded all expectations! I use it strictly for listening to music while hiking and running with my dog, and at 256GB has plenty of room to hold my entire music library. As I frequently encounter elk I also have the capability for photographs and video, should I choose to do so. I use the iPod touch with the AirPods Pro and that is an unbeatable combination! I am thrilled with this purchase!

Missing some iPod (classic) functionally...

By tim
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2019-12-12

Obviously I wanted to replace an iPod Classic I accidentally burnout a channel on... So the music functionally is what I care about most, and this is where it falls short compared to the Classic... One item missing is the song rating, I download around 2000 tracks a year, from which I extract 65 tracks for a five-hour set, so I use the rating feature to highlight tracks I need to take another look at... I have to say, the design of the Classic was brilliant for listening to stored music...

This is a clarification on a previous question. ...

This is a clarification on a previous question. Battery life. Apple - and the previous answer - say you get about 40 hours of playing music on a charge. Fine. But my problem has been that on my previous models, if you let the IPod out of a charger, but never turned it on, it would still fully discharge in about 3 days. A constant source of frustration. Have they improved this aspect? My IPad can hold a charge, unused, for much longer.
Asked by: David
Discharge, when the unit is left on, is still roughly that extreme. You would think they could design it to throttle down when inactive and not have this issue. It is also terrible on that account for audio books, since booting the device is so slow, not to mention that the native audio player can't remember its location in the previous track. Lacking the necessity of keeping it active and charged that a phone has, its practical utility is fairly limited. If Apple is such a valuable high-tech company, as adherents regard it, why can't it iron out such limitations with this relatively expensive, basic device?

How is the battery life on this IPod? I have had several previous generations and my only complaint is that if I don't leave it in a charging dock, after three or four days the battery is drained, even if never used.
Asked by: David
The I touch has a off button on it. When not in use, turn it off. When i leave it on it generally will go dead or low charge in about 5 days.

I have a Yamaha R-S202 and I can't get bluetooth to pair with my iPod Touch. Does this iPod support A2DP? The Yamaha manual says that this could be the problem. If the iPod does support A2DP then what could the problem be? Yes bluetooth is turned on.
Asked by: William
This iPod supports A2DP. Often another device is causing interference like a Wi-Fi router, computer, microwave oven, etc.
