How long

[Guest joongie;love]

Has your Ipod lasted ?

I've been hearing some pretty negative feedback with Ipods. All my friends own Ipods and they've all pretty much, screwed up at its own will.
My cousin told me that the Ipods are programed to break down just after the warranty or something ?
My friend, he got a Ipod Video for Christmas, and pretty much lasted, 6 months -_______-;; And yes, he didn't drop it during that six months.
Im just waiting before my Ipod Video screws up aswell.

So how long has your Ipod lasted before.... shutdown ?

I got mines during Christmas and everything's okay... so far.

[Guest Tepper]

I got mine Xmas 2004, so its like a year and a half old, no real big problems so far.

i heard the head phones break easily

[Guest skwannabe]

all depends how you take care of your mp3 players. if you take care like a baby than nothing will really happen unless there something wrong with it when it was made or something >>

[Guest kenn]

lasted me 1 year and a half ? (i think)

the only bad thing about it right now is the battery life

its lasts me uhhhh 2-4 hours now

[Guest mkdinh]

ive had my mini for about a year now.

dropped it 3 times by accident but its working fine =]

[Guest aznfishyfart]

its been 3 years now that ive had my ipod...since june 2003

works just fine...battery still lasts long compared to when i got it...lsats about 5-6 hours....mind u that the battery only was supposed to lsat 8 hours

my sisters shuffle lasted just over a year (like 1 or 2 months more).. so suss.

and she asked hte appple store and they said "your shuffle is unfixable and well out of its warranty period. your only option is to buy a new one".. so i got it and reflashed the firmware and it worked... lazy a-holes at apple... didnt bother to fix it.. not even attempt.. i was angry as hell.

yep if you put the volume up really high, eventually the bass of the earphones will break down, then you get that nasty noise.

[Guest lovejyk]

oh man... i got a video because i won this contest last month ;

it better not break on me!

i would never buy an ipod even though i have the money -____-;;;

oh well, it was free. heh heh.

[raito]

I have my mini for almost a yr now, still alive and kickin.

Though I have dropped it countless times

[Guest iamsars]

the first video i got i had to return to the store in less than a day cuz the key kept jamming.. but then i got another 1 and it's worked fine for about 2 months now x]

[Guest kyung won]

i dropped my first nano in a puddle of water within the first 2-3 weeks i got it and that died

but i went to the apple store and they replaced it with a brand new one instantly

the one i have right now i've had for 9 months now and it still works fine

even though i have dropped it countless times...

all i want it to do is last another 9 months an i'm good

lol 75 cents savings a day for that long a period and i could buy another one

so i'm just like meh if it brakes then it brakes

and if an ipod specialist can't do anything a bout it i'll buy something else

[Guest 말라카]

I found mine on the floor November 2005, the harddrive had to be replaced (I upgraded to a 30gb hd it was 20gb). Other than that its fine.

u dropped it and they replaced it? O.o

i thought the apple warranty was that if it's hard ware crap and it breaks within a yr they'll replace and user abuse was not covered?

[Guest *frutti]

I've had my ipod nano for about 9 months already, and it's fine. It froze once, but I reset it and it was ok after that.

[Guest hailing from ny]

goin on 1 year and no problems so far [30GB photo], although sometimes if i dont use it for a couple of days, the battery drains itself..

[Guest vannushka]

less than a year i guess..then the battery barely worked for 30mins

[Guest aznxinvazn]

Same here. However, I rarely used it for a couple of months, so the battery shouldn't be too bad.
