<P> Although not specifically designed as one, some accessory makers produced watchbands for the 6th generation Nano, allowing it to be worn like a watch . In September 2013, TUAW compared the iPod Nano to the Samsung Galaxy Gear, and considered the three - year - old model to be a "better, cheaper smartwatch" than the Galaxy Gear because of its more complete functionality in comparison, and its inclusion of a headphone jack . </P> <P> Apple announced the seventh and final generation iPod Nano on September 12, 2012 . The (maximum) internal storage capacity has not been increased compared with the previous model but only a single, 16GB version of the seventh generation iPod Nano was announced at the product launch . It has been described as the "thinnest iPod Nano yet", 38% thinner (5.4 mm) than the Nano it replaces (8.78 mm), and adds the ability to use Bluetooth 4.0 wireless headsets, speakers and other devices (such as heart - rate monitors). It still included the Nike + iPod fitness option as well as an FM radio tuner which works when connected to headphones or a stereo jack . On 15 July 2015, Apple refreshed the iPod Nano, offering only 5 more subdued colours (gold, silver, blue, pink and space grey) compared to the original 7 jewel tones, in addition to the (Product) Red model . On July 27, 2017, Apple discontinued the iPod Nano, along with the iPod shuffle . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> Generation and Appearance </Th> <Th> Capacity </Th> <Th> Colours </Th> <Th> Connection </Th> <Th> Original release date </Th> <Th> Minimum OS to sync </Th> <Th> Rated battery life (hours) </Th> <Th> Screen (pixels) </Th> <Th> Audio processor </Th> <Th> On - board RAM </Th> <Th> Physical size </Th> <Th> Weight </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 1st </Th> <Td> </Td> <Td> 1 GB </Td> <Td> Black White </Td> <Td> USB (FireWire for charging only) </Td> <Td> February 7, 2006 </Td> <Td> Mac: 10.3. 4 Windows: 2000 iTunes 5 or later </Td> <Td> Audio: 14 Slideshow: 4 </Td> <Td> 176 × 132 145 PPI (16Bit Colour) </Td> <Td> Wolfson WM8975G </Td> <Td> 32 MB </Td> <Td> 89 mm 41 mm 6.9 mm </Td> <Td> 42.5 g (1.5 oz) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2 GB </Td> <Td> September 7, 2005 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 4 GB </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="11"> Replaced Mini .
