+Marcus Christensen uhm samsung aint cheap either, I payed 700 dlls for my samsung galaxy s6 edge when it came out for 32 gb with no sd card slot, at least samsung added the sd card slot back with the s7 but im not buying another phone anytime soon
I still have my iPod 4th gen 20GB model. The first one with a click wheel. Btw they were made for Windows XP. XP came out in 2001 so well before this iPod. And on the OSX side we had 10.3 Panther by then. When my 4th gen came out in 2004 OSX Tiger was brand new.
Nice stroll down memory lane! I just found this iPod which my late husband got me in 2003, 40 GB. I loved the clever boxing it was in. Still have the dock, belt clip holder, FireWire cable and little stick FireWire adapter for pc it came with, and the “remote” (which made it sound kind of muffled). Also have the iTrip, and there used to be a little thing that was about that same size which acted as both a speaker and microphone so you could record voice notes. Last night I plugged mine into my old white eMac to charge overnight, and it still works! I like the look and feel of it, and that it is just dedicated to music and audiobooks, nothing extraneous. Well-built. (And I like the clicker, too!)
@@XanthosAcanthus Cool 👍 I was born in 2007 so I didn't have the chance to use these systems older than XP, but I want to try them out cause they have very cool things to offer
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess oh man, why you gotta make me feel old. I only started college in 2010. Dang. Check out some emulators. The real trick is finding software though. Luckily the school my parents bought that old computer from threw in a ton of stuff.
Me too. Got the 32GB one which was pretty good except it wasn't that useful anymore after iOS 5. Beaten up badly but it still worked before I sold it off.
I'm a retro geek. Just brought one of these in mint condition, working fine. Got a brand new in box gen 5 classic. Brand new shuffle 1. Mint iriver ihp120 in box. And the collection is still Growing.
i thing for me it's the iPod Shuffle and then an iPod nano 3rd gen. They are fully functional now. And sometimes i just use them when i'm jogging or playing sports before I bought an apple watch. These things are super portable.
I should replace the battery on my old one, it was my first music player I had 15 GB and definitely spent over 1000 hours listening to music off of it. I loved the backlight and button light colors!
This was my first iPod!/new apple product! Had a 20gig model. Was the lowest storage option that came with all the accessories.. dock, inline remote, case.. Mine was also from CompUSA lol. Was actually trying to get a mini but decided this was a better deal
I really like the blue and orange lighting on this :-) And this iPod introduced the dock connector that would continue to be used all the way up to the iPad 3 in 2012! When my car was made in Mar. '04 this was the newest iPod but now I play music from my iPhone 4 in it and I've even had friends' iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 hooked up in it :-P
I'm downgrading from an iphone 11 to a nokia flip soon, and I am seriously considering saving to buy this bad boy for music on the go! I'm doing this to pry myself away from modern phone addiction. We also share the same birthday. Hello 14 years later ;p
I got one of these in 2006 off eBay, for about 150 bucks... it was cool. I loved the design. It lasted me about 3 years. (would've lasted longer if my dad hadn't insisted on taking it apart to figure out why it wasn't working)... I loved this thing. Great design. Hate the touch screen now.
My first iPod was iPod Nano, I'm actually borrowing it from my father then after a few years he won an iPod Touch 4th gen 32GB then he gave it to me. It really helped me a lot as it gave me a taste of iPhone hahaha
We got the same birthday. Also, wild that 2003 was 21 years ago. It’s longer from the release of your retro review to now than it is from the release of the ipod 3rd gen to your retro unboxing.
I got one of those for Christmas 2003 10GB and loaded it with Smash Mouth, Switchfoot, and Alien Ant Farm. It's battery barely lasts more than 5 minutes now, but it was cool to listen to my iPod in middle school before most people had even heard about it.
My first ipod was the ipod mini silver 4gb back in 2004. i remembered the day when I first got it I was 15 years old and I was so happy to have one . Good times :) I wished I could go back in time
LoL. I have the 4th generation 20 GB apple iPod HP (Hewlett Packard) version with the firewire cable. The HP part was not fun when calling the apple help desk back in the day for help. Eventually, I remember Apple supporting my issues once it was determined the HP help desk could not help me. (I'm pretty sure it was to do a factory reset). Anyways, I still have the unit and it still works! This was fun going down memory lane...
I really loved iPod 3rd gen nano that I bought about 6 years ago... I was really impressed with great playback. Then click wheel broke so I bought 4th gen and after 1 year of use same problem occured. Still, I was so happy with iPod, so I got 2nd gen iPod mini from eBay... After this one broke, I bought Android smartphone and stopped buying Apple products since this year when I bought used iPhone 4S and I can't be happier with it :) It has some performance issues with iOS 9.2.1, however one thing that made me fall in love with Apple is still there... Amazing playback :)
I bought my 3rd gen iPod (20gb) in 2004 almost new in the box from a co-worker for $100. it was the best $100 I ever spent. I walked all around Europe with it on me at all times. I still have it, it still works great! I have a MacBook Pro from 2007 and an iPhone 4. I love Apple products!
This was my very first iPod. I loved it. It was hilarious though, it synced over firewire but couldn't charge through the computer so syncing used most of the battery.
I got a green 4gb iPod mini as my first! I then got a white first gen nano and when that was stolen, a silver second gen nano. Then I got a 6th gen classic (80g), an iPhone 3GS and I just bought a pink 4th gen shuffle today. I was bringing my huge CD case to the gym and a discman before my iPod, so I must profess my love for them!
Dude I remember when my mom got that iPod and it was the first iPod in the house. I used to just stare at that box for the longest time and read every little thing on it cause my mom wouldn't let me borrow it lol Guess I was destined t unbox one day lol
Most beautiful iPod ever, the 3rd gen.! Btw: you're wrong about the backlight - even the very first iPod had backlight! I grew up with the very first iPod (10GB model) in our family that supported the remote control (old style), but this was not mine. My first personal one was the iPod Photo 30 GB (the thinner version). Later moved on to the first iPod Touch (16 GB), iPhone 3GS (16), iPhone 5 (16) and got an iPod 2nd gen. (20 GB - the fattest ever made) later on. Great stuff from Apple!
wow! this video is 6 years old! plus the iPod witch is (from this videos time of realise)7 years and now I'm watching a video witch is 6 years old witch reviews a product witch came out 13 years ago! now I feel old!
First was a 2GB Silver iPod nano 2G, then a 16GB iPod touch 2G, now a 32GB iPod touch 4G. Three iPods, still have all of them, they are all well loved. (especially my 4G touch...)
1st Ipod was the 20 GB 3rd Gen. I completely agree that this generation is the sweetest designed Ipod that Apple has come out with. I've owned 2. Second was the 4th gen with click wheel.
Good little review. I really wanted this iPod model back in '03, but I got a Rio Karma instead so I didn't look like an iSheep. Only in like 2009 did I purchase the iPod 3G 20GB model off eBay for kicks. Got it for less than $30! I later did a short review of it in one of my own vids. Anyway, thanks for sharing.
My first ipod ever is the newest ipod touch 4g 32gb. I used to use my sisters 1st gen nano but it wasnt really mine. I absolutley love my ipod. i am actually watching this video on it!
I think the buttons look very nice on that iPod. My first iPod was the "fat" iPod Nano. I now have a 5th gen iPod video with Rockbox and 64GB of storage.

Had one of these as a kid, went out and bought one for nostalgic purposes, arrives tomorrow :D
"A pretty large battery"
You've clearly never seen what it looks like inside. The battery is hilariously small compared to the rest of the iPod.
There's an actual hard drive in there. It's the cutest little thing
The 6g gets like 30 hours of playback out of 400mah so if it had 1920mah (like my iPhone) it would play continuously for like a week
my first ipod was the ipod touch 4 gen
Alexis Baker Same it was pretty good but I got the 8gb which was rubbish.

Same.
Me too. Got the 32GB one which was pretty good except it wasn't that useful anymore after iOS 5. Beaten up badly but it still worked before I sold it off.

just found mine while going through some old stuff. Booted right up 15 years later!
iPod 3rd Generation was my first and still fav. iPod!

my first iPod was and still is the first generation in 2001!
realy good to see old technology like this
My first iPod was a 2005 Blue iPod mini. I got one of the last ones Apple ever sold due to high demand for that color. It's still amazing.

so many good memories of unboxing my 1st gen iPod mini while watching this, came in a similar box.

I had the gen after this one loved it still have still works almost ten years later
This was the first iPod that I bought as a college student in Boston back in 2004. The first song that I put on it was “Leave Get Out” by Jojo.

My first iPod was the iPod Nano 3rd Gen. Felt awesome back in the day to have something like that...
