These days, nearly everybody as an iPod, and while it’s tempting to look at and lust after the newest models and generations of the world’s most famous MP3 player, it’s a lot more economical to hold on to your current model and if you want it to last longer, then here are a few affordable tips on keeping it safe, clean and scratch free.
Extend the Battery Life
Many people find that the first thing to go when using their iPod is the battery, and while this may be true, a lot of users don’t know how to conserve the battery’s energy, and this can lead to them inadvertently contributing to the battery’s loss of power. If you want to conserve as much of the battery power as possible, then try to keep it at room temperature at all times, don’t leave it in direct sunlight, and make sure that you use the hold switch, especially if you are using the iPod on the move, as it leaving it in a bag or pocket unlocked will lead to it being accidentally switched on, which will then run down the battery.
Get Some Protection
With one in three people using their iPod or MPR3 player every time we go out, it makes sense to invest in some insurance for your beloved iPod, which will protect you if your MP3 player is damaged, breaks down outside the manufacturer’s guarantee, or even if it’s lost or stolen. Many insurance companies offer cover from as little as £2 a month, which is a small price to pay for the peace of mind you’ll get for knowing that you’re covered if the worst should happen.
Keep it Clean
If you use your iPod, such as a classic iPod or an iPod Nano daily, then you’ll know that putting it in a bag or your pocket can lead to it becoming dirty and scratched. Avoid this by keeping it in a special iPod sock, which will keep it clean and damage free every day.
