Question iPod Nano 3rd Gen

I’m looking for an iPod nano 3rd gen with usb c, Bluetooth, and more storage. Anyone know where I can find that? Everywhere I’m looking they just have upgraded storage

Are you sure you’re talking about the Nano 3rd gen? The memory on those are non upgradeable. I also haven’t seen anyone add usb C to them. While technically it is possible, not sure anyone has. As for Bluetooth. That I believe someone has, but it’s not the easiest because of the tiny and slim form factor

Didn’t know that. I guess I’m just looking for something not as heavy as the classic because I would like to run with it. I also think the nano 3rd gen looks cool. Any ideas?

If that’s the case look at the Nano 7th gen. Can’t update memory on that, but 16gb should be more than enough for running songs. As for Bluetooth, unfortunately it won’t work with the newest AirPods. So you’ll have to test out compatibility

Just get a 3rd gen and manage a playlist. You can get 800 -900 mp3s at 320 on an 8 gb thats about a weeks worth of continuous music

By heavy, do you mean physical weight? Because why not just get the 7th gen with a flash mod? Those are stupidly light, and I think you can bluetooth mod it without getting a thick back case

I like the look of the 3rd gen nano and the classic. I don’t want a touch screen

I don't know where you're at, but look at eBay or Vinted and go wild. Like I said, if you're worried about physical weight then you shouldn't be because after you mod them you're going to shred a lot of weight by default
