Advantages and Disadvantages of Apple IPod Video

By: Ronald W. Firquain

The new i-Pods has stirred a lot of reactions, a lot of reviews, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of its utility, quality and features. These reviews are important especially because of the fact that the new Apple i-Pods was launched without a serious study of the market, of the customers tastes and wishes. From this point of view this is a daring initiative and a great step in the development. The reviews usually point out the amazement and the great success concerning the new i-Pod, but also highlight some aspects that may contribute to its improvement. For example, the great advantage of connecting the i-Pod movies to the TV set and playing the videos on it is well received. But on the other hand, the fact that the i-Pod movies cannot be connected to the computer is seen as a disadvantage. The transfer from i-Pod to computer is not possible and this fact may be a suggestion for the designers and creators.

One of the newest and most popular digital devices on the market today is, without any doubt, the new i-Pods. The small device has improved significantly since the last models launching and the main evolution is represented by the capacity of playing videos. Still, the new i-Pod is not all about watching movies or music movie clips, as it has various improvements since the last model, different accessories and improved capacities. As the producing company Apple claims, regarding the evolution of the product: Witness the evolution of the revolution. First it played songs. Then photos. Then pod casts. Plays video. Importing and saving photos was an important characteristic of the last models and it still is, even with the new features.

The i-Pod is known as the last generation of i-Pods, which surprised the market and the sales since its appearance. Basically, this new device is able to play videos. If this seems like fun, the technical part might need some guidance. In other terms, the company Apple claims, in a purely informative ad that it can store 15,000 songs, 25,000 photos and not less than 150 hours of digital movies.

The new i-Pods is a refined device with refined features for the interested customers. The new features are very well thought out and displayed on a thinner side. Besides, the resolution is up to 320x240, fact that may represent an advantage in an era of other hand held options. On the other hand, it has better volume with no static or clipping when turned up to the maximum volume. You may also connect it to the home or car stereo without worrying about the quality of the sound. Another option concerns the fact that has a large color screen. Besides, the display is refined, as you may see the images even in bright indoor light or in the sunlight. Another aspect regards the battery life that may last 14 hours or even 20 it depends on the model you choose.

Firstly, you should know that both the i-Pods can play H.264 MPEG-4 encoded videos with audio tracks. Due to this fact, the resolution is rather limited, together with the limitation of the bit rates that you can use on the device. After establishing these limits, the next step is to establish the source of the video, which can be either from a DVD or a video of the computer. The specialists suggest that the main use will be the short videos, funny elements taken from life. The argument for this fact is videos are too small for being watched by too many people at the same time and require more attention than the audio programs.
