I used an original iPod Nano in 2026, and it worked surprisingly well (www.spacebar.news)

And the battery is an absolute nightmare to replace on any of the Nanos...

I find the nano to be the easiest. The itouch is the hardest

The regular iPods (non-classic) are the easiest IMO. No glue, no flipping over mainboards and no soldering. The iPos mini is actually the first modell I ever did a battery swap on and it would be just as easy, if it wasn't for the trim pieces that break way too easily.
