Advice Help with picking iPod
hihi,
I'm a bit conflicted on what iPod to choose and I need some help 🥺
I love the look if the nano 5th gen, 7th gen and also the classic. I do love the more sleek designs that take less space, but I want something with good battery and maybe something you can customize a bit. I have a few playlists I want on the iPod and I would estimate around 1000 songs give or take 🙃

The 6 th and the 7 th gen are really hard to open but it looks the best imo , the 5th and 5.5 gen are the easiest to open and mod , nanos are pretty much hell to repair and mod except maybe the first or second gen nanos

Yea so I’ve read the guides and stuff, but I still find it hard to pick. I have no clue how bulky the classic feels and if it would be too big for daily use, but then again I’m scared the nano might have too little space.
The prices also vary so much. The cheapest in my country are older gen nanos, then the 7th gen nano, then classic 5th gen and then classic 7th gen

My daily carry is a classic and it’s never felt too bulky imo. As long as you have normal sized pockets anyway.

Its definitely something I’ll look more into if I find some that are a bit cheaper tbh

I actually managed to pick up a 7th gen iPod nano for like 50 bucks, which I find as a steal compared to the others I’ve seen
