the colors are nice, the screen is noticeably better/larger when you hold it next to a 4th Gen. the FM radio records a live buffer like a DVR/Tivo. The speaker is the great... really, it's loud enough that you can now listen quietly without headphones or show a recently recorded video clip, with sound playing. The video is adequate for youtube clips. It will record in relatively low light also. The built in pedometer and voice recorder might not get used much but the recorder works well.... haven't tried the pedometer. comes with the standard headphones no remote/mic.
