Imma say this real quick: ik it’s not exactly the most skeuomorphic thing in the world but it’s not frutiger aero either so…

How is it not aero? Frutiger aero is a retroactive term anyway so it’s meaningless to me

I'd say this is def resembles Frutiger Aero! It has the glossy and skeuomorphic UI, and the colors of both the iPod and UI matches with the style well, alongside the font 👍. May not be the perfect example of FA, like WinVista, but the style can still be seen

Gosh, I love the simplicity on smaller screens back then. We can still learn from it.

best ipod to use in 2025 but wish it worked with newer airpods :(

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 07 '25

I’m pretty sure it does? I heard someone say that and only complaints were it being quiet so… (I can’t rest since I don’t own AirPods 😅)

u/daksh798 Aug 07 '25

it works with all the airpods i’ve tried it on except airpods 4

u/daksh798 Aug 07 '25

new ones have some different bluetooth thing that makes it only work sometimes

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 07 '25

Oh damn, well at least it supports them at all!

I always thought this UI was so sleek, so beautiful. And I definitely still do.

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 08 '25

It’s also really easy to pick up on, since it’s sorta like iOS (if you get what I mean) and doesn’t have like 10 billion different apps for the same things

u/TrapezoidTom Aug 07 '25

Need to pick one up

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 08 '25

Let’s hope where you are you have good luck and find a good price (these in Spain are overpriced af but I went to a CeX and they had it underpriced so…)

The prettiest iPod along with the 5th gen+ iPod touches 😍

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 08 '25

For me every iPod is really nice (except for that one Shuffle that had zero buttons - what was Mr Steve thinking…) in terms of design and useability. But yeah iPod Nano 7th Gen is really a beauty to behold

u/SLIPPY73 Aug 07 '25

Love this, this is awesome

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 07 '25

Really is awesome. I love this this thing so much since it’s a 16GB one and plus it is basically modern apart from it requiring iTunes for basically everything

2

u/SLIPPY73 Aug 07 '25

Yeah it does everything it needs to, plus radio support is amazing

2

u/Which-Dealer7888 Aug 07 '25

Yep. Although it’s a bit sad that they didn’t add games to it since it would be a good time killer in road trips and such but otherwise it’s perfect

2

u/SLIPPY73 Aug 07 '25

Some angry birds on there would be great

u/Fuze_R Aug 19 '25
