About the size of a credit card — and just 5.4 mm
thin — the new iPod nano is the thinnest iPod ever made. The 2.5-inch
Multi-Touch display is nearly twice as big as the display on the
previous iPod nano, so you can see more of the music, photos, and videos
you love. Buttons let you quickly play, pause, change songs, or adjust
the volume. The smooth new anodized aluminum design makes iPod nano feel
as good as it sounds. And iPod nano wouldn’t be iPod nano without
gorgeous, hard-to-choose-from colors.
How to get your groove on.
Tap to play your favorite songs. Or entire albums.
Or everything by one artist. You can even browse by genres or
composers. Flip through your music: Album art looks great on the
bigger screen. Or to keep things fresh, give iPod nano a shake and
it shuffles to a different song in your music library.
Genius. Your own personal DJ.
Say you’re listening to a song you love and
you want to stay in the mood. Just tap Genius. It finds other songs
on iPod nano that go great together and makes a Genius playlist for
you. For more song combinations you wouldn’t have thought of
yourself, create Genius Mixes in iTunes and sync the ones you like
to iPod nano. Then tap Genius Mixes and rediscover songs you haven’t
heard in a while — or find music you forgot you even had.
Now you can watch episodes of your favorite
TV shows, Hollywood blockbusters, free video podcasts, and home
videos on your iPod nano. View them on the widescreen 2.5-inch
Multi-Touch display. Tap to play, fast-forward, rewind, and pause.
With iPod nano, you can have a little entertainment whenever — and
wherever — you want.
Your music experience gets even better now
that iPod nano has Bluetooth 4.0 built in. Pairing iPod nano with
Bluetooth-enabled headphones and supported speakers is a cinch. With
no wires in the way, working out with iPod nano is even easier. (No
more getting wires caught in your free-weights.) And if your car’s
sound system is Bluetooth enabled, when you sit down in the driver’s
seat, your iPod nano is ready to pick up where you left off. Without
missing a beat.
FM radio keeps you up on what’s going on out there — the game,
the top news stories, your favorite talk shows — or whatever you
love listening to. Just plug in your headphones and
tap to see the controls. Flick the radio dial to change stations.
Tap to set your favorites. Need to take a break? With Live Pause,
you won’t miss a minute. Just tap to pause the song or show, then
tap again to continue. You can even rewind as far back as 15
minutes, so you can be sure of the lyrics you’re belting out. Or
fast-forward to catch up to a live broadcast.
Apple designers and engineers had the goal of
creating earbuds that rest and stay comfortably inside a variety of
ear types — while also producing the best sound quality possible.
They tested 124 different prototypes on over 600 people. The result
is a breakthrough for earbud headphones. They’re called EarPods.
They look unlike anything you’ve ever seen. They sound unlike any
earbuds you’ve ever heard. And the audio quality is so superior,
they rival high-end headphones.
Making iPod nano thinner required a bold
move: Replacing the 30-pin dock connector with something newer,
smaller, and better. It’s called Lightning, and it’s significantly
more durable than the 30-pin connector. It’s also reversible, so
there’s no wrong way to plug in the cable. If you have an iPod nano
accessory that depends on the 30-pin connector, you can still
connect it to your iPod nano with a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter
(sold separately). Though with more and more accessories adding
wireless capabilities through Bluetooth technology, thankfully cords
and cables needn’t be a concern.
iPod nano is the perfect workout partner. It
gives you some much-needed musical motivation and provides real-time
feedback. Since Nike+ support and a pedometer are built into iPod
nano, there’s no need to connect a receiver or use a shoe sensor to
track your steps, distance, pace, time, and calories burned.
Built-in Bluetooth technology lets you wirelessly connect to
heart-rate monitors and headphones, making it easier to exercise.
And at the end of your workout, sync iPod nano to nikeplus.com to
track your daily activity and goals, check your NikeFuel, and
monitor your fitness progress against yourself and your friends.
Then get ready to do it all again tomorrow.
Carry around a few thousand photos and no
matter where you are, you’re ready to share in an instant. The
larger screen on the new iPod nano is perfect for viewing photos.
Just pinch and zoom, and prove to your coworkers that you’re smiling
(not screaming) on the zip line in Costa Rica. Or laugh at your
dog’s latest sleeping position. Because on top of everything else
iPod nano does, it makes an excellent little brag book.
Chances are, there’s an audio or video
podcast for just about anything you’re into. And you can listen to
and watch it right on iPod nano. Browse podcasts through the podcast
directory in iTunes. When you find one (or more than one) you’re
interested in, subscribe. That way you won’t miss an episode. Oh,
and the best part? Thousands of them are free.
iTunes is the easiest way to fill your iPod
nano with music, movies, TV shows, audiobooks, podcasts, and more.
Just buy from the iTunes Store on your Mac or PC, or import your CD
collection into iTunes. Then you can make your own playlists, create
Genius playlists, choose Genius Mixes, and sync it all to your iPod
nano.
iPod nano comes with accessibility features
that help people with disabilities enjoy music, audiobooks, and
more.
