iPod What iPod should I get in 2025?

[iUniqueUser]

I'm completely crossing out Shuffles and Touch.

Anyways, which one should i get in 2025? What i really prioritize - is style, being able to have lots of music, podcasts and video on there, and I want it to still be useable in 2025.

Considering an iPod Nano 5 or an iPod Classic 6

If your definition of 'lots of songs' is more than 2-3k I wouldn't look at a Nano. The iPod Mini can be modified for more storage, not the Nanos.

1 thousand songs or less will be fine. The thing is, I don't want to modify the iPod. All I want to "modify" is just adding music, movies and podcasts. Audiobooks too.

I would recommend iPod classic. Nano 5 has elegant design but you have to face to swollen battery and replacement eventually. That's a pain.

Okay. Thanks for the recommendations.

Dont know if you're specifically wanting the click wheel with the older iPods but if not I'd recommend the 7th gen Nano. I originally had a 2nd gen and then moved to the 7th gen. At the time I did miss the click wheel a bit but now I wouldn't go back. A Classic will give you more storage but a 7th gen will feel the most modern.

Another thing to consider is connection capabilities. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the Classic had Bluetooth? You might prefer using cables (I tend to do that myself), but the 7th gen at least gives you the Bluetooth option if you ever want to connect wirelessly to any speakers. 👍
