We have the benefits of carrying your iPod nano like a watch until the cows come home the debate, but the odds are not deterred the disadvantages dedicated Apple fans anyway, what we are doing, what companies say the bracelet perfect accessory?
Opposition forces
I am narrowing my attention to two contenders for the title of best band of iPod nano, the other reason is that I have tried so far in terms of quality and performance was. It also helps that the iWatchz (Do not ask me how to pronounce that) and minimum Q Collection TikTok more or less the same price ($ 24.95 and $ 34.95 respectively) and similar design principles (as shown in the gallery see below .)
The iWatchz Q Collection is one of the two dolls nano now through Apple's retail and can also be found at Best Buy. TikTok Moreover, currently funded only needed for pre-order directly from LunaTik.com. Based on appearance alone, one might think, forget that the two are almost identical, but it would be very bad.
Design and Construction
These two bands of very similar design Nano. There are slots in the band of silicon in a plastic holder for the iPod nano. Nano Video Q consists of a thin sheet of hard plastic, while the TikTok has a thick plastic and a little more flexible set of hard to keep your iPod in place.
But when you get to take a close look at the differences are obvious. The iWatchz Q has all the characteristics of mass production, badly painted surfaces in the hard plastic pieces that feel rough enough to scrape the skin potential. Reviewers at the Apple Store online even reported using a Dremel tool to correct that oversight itself at home, and control of other storage devices from Apple and Best Buy, I now I have the problem off effects.
TikTok contrast, tells the story of design chops care, fit and finish. Under founder Scott Wilson is not new, the game shows he has worked with Nike in his spare time, he had a hand in the redesign of the Xbox 360 and its peripheral KINECTS. While TikTok is a bit quieter than the new look of Microsoft's console, the difference in art between the nano tape easy to see, fleeting, even for the observer.
Both products operate at the full integration of Nano, the iPod accessory makes it looks and feels like a watch, first, second and a media player (if available). The TikTok is slightly larger, while the Q is a very good job in the minimalist approach with its "only-based approach." The Q also offers other options for the black version I tried, "while the TikTok only available in black.
Comfort and convenience
A look at early designs nano Armband was my biggest concern is that I can not find one that fits comfortable enough for everyday use. Both seem to have anticipated this iWatchz and minimal concern because the surface of the silicon strip and around the world the light plastic materials with relative ease using the wrist.
If one of them is the edge of the Q, because it's easier, and it really feels almost like not wearing anything. Neither the project provides a reason for the complaint in this regard, however. women and people can try out all the risks bracelets thin iPod nano in the store before making a purchase, but the Nano is much space in the wrist. If you try to find the Q and works fine, no problems TikTok.
Both bands are also easy to use, but this time it TikTok takes over. The Q is two bands to secure the excess strap once you've placed your wrist to the desired size, but this can lead to some awkward clumsy, and tends to jam a bit on the tape, even when the two rubber surfaces . The TikTok uses an innovative and highly customizable plastic adjustment system fixed exchange rate, the correct dimensions, and tape backup on a piece of cake.
Both access to all ports / buttons, which can actually use the iPod as the iPod while you use them, but I realized that is uncomfortable at best, regardless of the band to use. Get the nano in and out is not difficult with the two bands, although, again, the extra attention to detail paid in the design process TikTok is obvious. Alignment of the nano in and out of the accessories TikTok makes sense, because it was designed internally by Apple itself.
Judgement
Using the iPod nano is a good idea? Some say no, but I have no problem when you press a button at a time. It's not like the Nano is the only clock that is required (see line Tokyo Flash, for example). And people say that the battery is a problem, but has at least a week of nano, if only used as a clock.
If not a good idea if you have a nano like a watch, do so with the TikTok. The TikTok is the only foreigners I have added (and I have quite a large collection of clocks). It feels good, is not as expensive, and is an example of industrial design drool worthy that will take you anywhere. At first glance, they resemble the Q as a worthy competitor, but after prolonged use, and to look closely at the can in good TikTok design easier on the day.
