iPod Classic 160GB

The Verdict
The battery life is amazing – I'm sure Apple's worked on it. It’s fatter and can hold strong for long. I managed to watch a little more than two movies of approximately 2.5 hours each. Music playback is equally well-matched, with about 10 hours of playback.



If iTunes puts you off and you're seriously inconvenienced by the absence of drag-and-drop, perhaps you could consider the Creative Zen Vision:M (30GB). It costs Rs 10,500 in gray and Rs 14,600 officially, while the 160GB costs Rs 14,000 in gray and Rs 20,400 in Apple Stores.

All said, if you're the type who commutes long distances and/or travel often, and want to carry all your music and movies, look no further than the 160GB iPod Classic. As of now, the warranty is global, so even gray pieces are covered. In any case the product's a steal, so go for it!
