Definition
Noun (trademark): A specific model or series of the iPod, a portable media player designed by Apple Inc., which has the added functionality of playing video files in addition to audio files.
Usage
This term is used to refer specifically to iPod models (like the fifth-generation iPod and later iterations) that introduced video playback capability. It distinguishes these models from earlier iPods that could only play audio.
Examples
- The video iPod allowed users to watch TV shows and music videos on its screen.
- She saved up to buy a video iPod so she could watch movies during her commute.
- The introduction of the video iPod marked a significant expansion of the device's multimedia features.
Advanced Usage
- The term is often used in a historical or product-specific context, as modern Apple devices (like iPhones and iPads) have long since integrated video playback as a standard feature, making the "video" specifier largely obsolete for current products.
- It can sometimes be used generically (though inaccurately) to describe any portable media player capable of playing video.
Variants and Related Words
- iPod (noun): The broader product line of portable media players from Apple Inc.
- iPod Classic (noun): A later model that typically included the video playback feature.
- Media player (noun): A general term for any device that plays digital media.
Synonyms

Notes
- "Video iPod" is a compound noun formed from "video" and "iPod". The core target word for explanation is the full compound term "video iPod".
- As a trademarked term, it is often capitalized as Video iPod.
- Its usage has declined as the standalone iPod product line has been largely discontinued or evolved into other devices like the iPod Touch, which inherently support video.
Noun
- (trademark) an iPod that can also play video files
