Apple also re-designed the iPod Nano 6G and added a touch screen on a squarish form factor (reminds me of the 3rd generation fatty nano) that lends a touch of inspiration from the Shuffle two generations ago.
iPod Nano 6th-generation :
1.54-inch TFT display @ 240×240 pixel resolution
Multi-touch screen
Accelerometer
FM Radio
Pedometer
The Nano can last up to 24 hours of music playback but it looks like it has lost the ability to play videos, a feature that was introduced 3 generations before this one.
This is probably the most radical change in a product line Apple has ever done on the iPod (in recent memory). While making the device smaller and lighter, it also sacrificed a lot of features and functionalities — built-in video camera, mic, video playback among others.
iPod Nano 6G Price List:
iPod Nano 8GB – Php7,990
iPod Nano 16GB – Php9,790
Price includes Php1,240 and Php1,511 VAT, duty and levies, respectively.
Comes in the usual 7 colors, including the Product Red. Ships in 10 to 15 days according to the Apple Philippines Online Store.
I hope Apple would release an ipod touch with radio

A BIG B.S. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IPOD TOUCH uNANO VERSION… WASTE OF MONEY!!!…
wala nang video playback… that’s one of the things i liked about nano… hmm… dinowngrade nila lang nila… waste of money.. dapat yan yung upgrade nung ipod shuffle….
nano was my alternative to the rather bulky ipod classic… i don’t like it….
with this 6th gen nano, my 5th gen looks much much better now. i’m sure they’ll revert back to the older design in no time.
For those wondering if the nano has a speaker, Yes as stated by engadget:
“As with the new nano, the touch did seem to sound a little better than previous versions, but it’s not such an astounding difference that you should toss your last gen model in the garbage. Overall, playback seemed solid to us — at least it didn’t leave us wanting for quality. If you’re planning on using the external speaker for listening, however, you might want to reconsider. We can’t remember the last time we heard something so tinny. Of course, it’s not surprising considering the size of this housing. Even though it’s located in a similar spot as the iPhone 4‘s speaker, the volume and quality of audio it produces is not even in the same vicinity. Still, how often will you use this?” – Engadet
wow… bibili talaga ako… music lan talaga habol ko… bagay to sakin…
@Joshua M
I think you misquoted Engadget on that one. That paragraph you used actually came from their iPod Touch 2010 review. They were still referring to the iPod Touch with regard to the external speakers.
Here’s a quote taken from their hands-on post of the 6th Gen iPod nano:
“There is no alarm clock, however, which as the Apple rep explained to us was a design decision given its lack of an external speaker.” – Engadget
@JKisaragi oops yeah. sorry bout that I saw this quoted on Gizmodo. So I shared it here with quotes of course sorry for the mistake.
Apple products sucks!!! id rather get a sone walk man.. di porket touch screen at malit sya convenient na sya sheesh…
natawa pa ako dun sa claim nila about gaming sa ipod compared sa DS at PSP. nakita nyo ba majority ng games ng ipod ang babaduy ilan lang ang matino at usually pang casual lang

They should call this as a part of the Nano clan.. This should belong to the Shuffle Clan.. No video is a major major fail.. Ang ganda ng 5th gen ng nano, tapos eto yung next?? ewwwwwwww ><
san kaya ako makakabili ng slap wristband nito… ung silicon.. pa help.. hehehe
ganda naman ng bagong labas ng ipod nano.. kaasar matagal p ko mgkakaroon nyan .. I LOVE it.. i Like the color Blue..
i have a nano 6g and yes it frustrates me na walang video playback, but rumor says na pag na hack na nila to me vid playback. but over all im super satisfied naman kase me iphone naman ako so for music purposes lang habol ko sa nano.
think of it as a WATCH that has multitouch and with mp3. cool eh?
pwede ba sya gamitin as voice recorder for school/review class purposes? or for taking minutes of meetings?
bakit may ganyan ba kayo? lakas nyo makalait ah. haha.
