What is the average life of an iPod?

Answer 1

It all depends on how you treat it. But it will last from 3-5 years. A friend of mine still has a First Gen. iPod and works great.

Tips on how to make it last longer:

Make sure you use the battery as long as you can with out charging.

It would be best to have a case and maybe a screen protector.

Keep it in as little humidity as possible.

If you aren't using WiFi turn it off.

Don't hit the screen hard.

Don't have the speaker on full volume the whole time.

If you follow these tips well your iPod touch should last along time.

Answer 2

This is a stupid question. The answer to this query depends completely on the user. If the user is a(n) immature young child who moves fast and is careless, obviously it's not going to last long. On the other hand, of course, if the user is a mature adult, then... the resulting life of the relatively delicate device will definitely exceed that of the child. Other than manufacturer defects, these are the only other factors coming into play here. At all times, when buying a product from Apple, if possible, get the maximum warranty available for your product.

Answer 3

I'm not so sure but I have had my ipod touch for a little over 3 years and it's close to dying. I give my ipod a few more months and it's going to the incinerator where the piece of junk belongs.

Answer 4

In general, the iPod Nano 8GB has a good battery life, averaging 24 hours of play time between charges and 400 charges over the lifetime of the battery. As with any device, your average play time between charges and how quickly you reach the expected number of battery lifetime charges will depend on your usage.

Answer 5

This depends on what activities you are doing on your iPod, and what type of iPod you have. Most new iPods now have around 30-40 hours of music playback, and the iPod touch has about 8 hours of video playback.

Answer 6

If you look after them well they should last around 10 years (unless they are way out of fashion by then and u get something different)
