∞Ramses Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I put my music too loud, and now the glass is broken. Actually, I dropped it like 1000 times. Should I fix this? Do you know a temporary solution? Can I fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakgrund Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPod+Nano+5th+Generation+Glass+Panel+Replacement/3128 You may be able to find some chinese cheap replacement part for it, but i wouldn't spend any big money on repairing it. Ipod nanos are already cheap these days. Here's some cheap ones: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR11.TRC1.A0.Xipod+nano+5th+gen+glass&_nkw=ipod+nano+5th+gen+glass&_sacat=0&_from=R40 Or just put the music on your phone, who needs a separate mediaplayer these days lol.

Vegan T-Rex Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Don't even bother fixing it. That thing is ancient. Use your phone, or save up for a shuffle (thing is surprisingly easy to use o_0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use your phone and fix your shuffle, it's cheap and fairly easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit too small, I like to see what I'm listening to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woifi The Viking Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 If phones would have better batteries, better music players and more memory, then maybe. Also it's time to buy a new mp3 player for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it's time to buy a new mp3 player for you. Iphone (ipod) is still the best music player....for some reason android (motorola/google/htc/samsung) just can't make a decent player. and 64gb is really enough....i have like 80gb worth of music, but it would literally take over a month to get through the 50~ thats on my iPhone.

Well I don't have an iPhone myself so you might be right. And yes 64gb is enough, but most smart phones doesn't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not excuse. There's tons of good music-player apps on android, poweramp just to name one example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwesomeMcCoolName Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 >android profile picture >iphone user Was an android user for the past 3 or so years, but I recently had to get a new phone, and my choices: Galaxy S4 (Huge, fragile as fuck, shit battery) Droid Maxx (Huge, a fucking tank, nuclear powered) HTC One (Huge, decent build, whats a battery?) IPhone 5s (a tad too small, decent build, same battery a the S4) So, i walked into the Verizon store "expecting" to buy the Droid Maxx (but knowing that its probably too big); i picked it up and was just fuck this, and got the iPhone. The problem is, all android phone makers keep making their phones bigger and bigger--to the point where its incredibly uncomfortable to use with one hand.

I disagree I own an S4, and I think that the dimensions are perfect. 16:9 works great at 5 inches, and I have no problem using it with my average sized hands. The iPhone, however, feels really long and weird. I know that it is "16:9" but it doesn't feel it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The iPhone, however, feels really long and weird. I know that it is "16:9" but it doesn't feel it. I agree; the iPhone by itself is uncomfortably small, but with my case its the perfect size. And i used the Droid Maxx and S4 for a little; and i just found them uncomfortable to use with one hand--and i have pretty big hands (I'm using the Performance Mouse MX because most mice are uncomfortable small). As for the size of the screen being better is another story; i would personally like if my phone had a larger screen, but not much larger since it becomes awkward to use with one hand.

There Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 The battery life on my HTC One is great. Same with my S4. I think the problem with the battery is how much it drains when I'm not using it. I can get 4-5 hours out of mine on max brightness easily. The battery is 2600 mAh (the One being 2300 mAh) and the Droid Maxx is 3500 mAh. While it is clearly larger than the S4, the S4 still has good battery life, and that is not its weak point. Also, I don't think the S4 is that fragile. If I drop it, maybe the side will be scratched up a bit. If you drop the iPhone the entire glass backing to it shatters and looks like this. Not sure if they've fixed that, but I haven't had any shattering issues on my S4. I'd much rather take a little chip in the side than, well, that.

BUT, even with the iPhone4, theres still a difference in damage. The iphone4s back/front would crack; whereas the S4s screen and internals would get damaged. I've had multiple friends with each phone; and the S4 would consistently take much more damage to the internals of the phone; so even if the screen didn't crack you had residual effects (such as the signal cutting out).
