Apple Dominates With This iPod!
by Dean81299 on February 24, 2011
Pros: The display is unbelievably clear and stable, cost is amazing if you consider what you are getting in the simple context of this device just being an MP3 player. Apple packs this device with everything that the iPhone 4 has except the phone part!
Cons: Absolutely no cons with this model iPod. Except maybe the chrome back. It should look exactly like the wildly popular iPhone 4. I would like to see Apple redesign this model iPhone and use the beautiful and completely scratch proof "Gorilla Glass."
Summary: The bottom line is Apple is the single best designer of ultra chic and popular consumer devices. No other company takes the bar and raises it every time it comes ...
Summary: The bottom line is Apple is the single best designer of ultra chic and popular consumer devices. No other company takes the bar and raises it every time it comes out with a new model. It leaves companies like Microsoft scrambling to copy the iPod's features and tries, clumsily to incorporate them into the piece of junk line of "Zunes"! The Zune is not even 1% of the multi-media home run that the iPod has become. In my opinion the iPod Touch is the single best MP3 player available today on the market. It truly doesn't get any better than this. Great model and a more than fair price tag also for all that you get. Buy this product, you won't ever be dissatisfied with having bought it!

Good review. Could have used a few more tech specs.
by MARCOSIS82 on February 8, 2011
Pros: I like the screen and how thin the iPod Touch is. Face Time is pretty fun as well. Like they've said, it's an iPhone without the phone.
Cons: I don't like the less than one megapixel camera. My first camera phone which I had in 2003 had a 1.3 megapixel camera.
Summary: This phone comes in handy on my downtime at work. Keeps me entertained and I love how thin it is. Fits easily in my pocket. The video recording is fun ...
Summary: This phone comes in handy on my downtime at work. Keeps me entertained and I love how thin it is. Fits easily in my pocket. The video recording is fun to play with. I just wish they would have at leas given it a 3(if not 5) megapixel camera on the back.

2.still restricted bluetooth

didnt have thought to bring 3rd gen but it came to me as gift :).
then 4th gen ipod came ouyt with great features.
and my friend bought it.
i loved retina display and new look + everything.
but no satisifaction because everything is the same. and camera is just waste.
even after planning to buy it i went back-step after seeing my friend's ipod.
retina display is good but yellow tint kinda looks dissappointing. and gyroscope is waste of time.
cuz not many apps support gyro.
facetime needs iphone4 or ipod touch......
but games look amazing on new ipod but music remains same while videos like 720p can be played.
overall everything pretty much same as 2nd gen except 50% faster while 3rd gen-4thgen ipod are same.
overall
2nd gen users = buy it or better if u w8 till 5th gen
3rd gen users = can w8 till 5th gen -
Love the ease of use.
Pros: The e- reader alone makes it soo worth the price. It is the perfect compliment to the home pc
Cons: There is nothing I don't like about it
Summary: So easy to use my three year old can do it!

Population control
by SuperGeek81 on December 16, 2010
Pros: It kills off the dim witt public at a faster rate
Cons: It is expensive so killing them off is a slow process

Summary: I was walking in NYC and saw someone with this device, looking at this device, ear buds in, not paying attention to anything going on around him. He stepped off the curb.. walked into the street not paying attention to anything but the device... He didnt notice the BUS backing up, or hear the sound from the beep as the bus backed up... The chime was a truck chime that all large vehicles make... The bus hit him, and although it didnt kill him, i am sure he will rethink walking with one of these again... NOTE: it doesnt have GPS, or an alarm when you are walking with it to tell you that fast traffic is approaching.

Incredible device....
by Drixi67 on December 10, 2010
Pros: Easily accesible and highly interactive touch screen! Also, faster load times, front-facing camera, 3.5 inch retina screen for high-quality graphics, and tons and tons and tons of apps! Also has great video and audio quality.
Cons: Not-so-awesome digital camera, but isn't too big of a deal. Sometimes crashes too, but I never mind!

Summary: The iPod touch 4th generation is easily one of the most interactive and awesome multi-media devices ever made, sitting right up there with the android smartphones and the iPhone 4 itself. They have made this thing even more sensitive to touch, so you can have more interaction with the touch screen, and they have also added a higher quality graphics display as well as a super-fast proccessor. They have also added a front-facing camera for facetime, which is basically a portable Skype video calling (although you can download a Skype app anyway :D). Also carries very long battery life and includes a map app for mapping out your destination. The internet browser is very nice, including automatic access to Safari, which is the Mac's internet browser, for you internet explorer and firefox users. Also, the bundle for this thing is pretty cheap, and was easily affordable for me.

Pocket iPad
by Practical-Mac on December 8, 2010
Pros: Many features of iPad and iPhone in a long battery life, incredibly small pocket sized device
Cons: Low res camera, no camera LED, no Compass (GPS would be nice, but without built in map, useless, and would cost a lot more). (With 64GB of drive, would love FW800 for lightning fast sync's.)
Summary: In a Wi-Fi zone using messengers like Skype and Yahoo, I can make international phone calls. I can take pics and video, the screen resolution is better then photographs! And ...
Summary: In a Wi-Fi zone using messengers like Skype and Yahoo, I can make international phone calls. I can take pics and video, the screen resolution is better then photographs! And is super easy to use. A budget iPhone.
Specifications
- Manufacturer: Apple
- Part number: MC544LL/A
- Description: iPod touch has an all-new design that makes it the thinnest, lightest, most amazing iPod touch ever. Holding one is all the proof you need. With its curved design, iPod touch is now a mere 7.2 millimeters thin. Its engineered glass front and stainless steel back feel sleek and smooth in your hand. Turn it on, and you're instantly blown away by the brilliant Retina display. iPod touch is the perfect combination of stunning design and revolutionary technology - brilliant from the outside in. There are lots of reasons you won't want to take your eyes off the iPod touch. The 960-by-640 backlit LCD display, for one. It packs 326 pixels per inch, making it the highest-resolution iPod screen ever. To achieve this, Apple engineers developed pixels so small - a mere 78 micrometers across - that the human eye can't distinguish individual pixels. Even though you can't see them, you'll definitely notice the difference. Text is remarkably sharp and graphics are incredibly vivid. The Apple A4 chip is behind, or rather underneath, all the fun you can have on iPod touch. Apple engineers designed the A4 chip to be a remarkably powerful yet remarkably power-efficient mobile processor. With it, iPod touch can easily perform complex jobs such as multitasking, editing video, and placing FaceTime calls. All while maximizing battery life. And fun. iPod touch just learned some new moves. It includes a built-in three-axis gyroscope. When paired with the accelerometer, the gyro makes iPod touch capable of advanced motion sensing such as user acceleration, full 3D attitude, and rotation rate. Translation: More motion gestures and greater precision for an even better gaming experience. iPod touch captures video with two built-in cameras. It shoots amazing HD 720p video from the back camera. And with its advanced backside illumination sensor, it captures beautiful footage even in low-light settings. All while the built-in microphone records conversations, music, or any audio at the same time. And on the front of iPod touch, the built-in camera is perfect for making FaceTime calls and shooting self-portraits. It's surprising how much fun can fit into something so small. When you put your finger on iPod touch, how does it just start doing what you want it to do? It's a chain reaction, really. The Multi-Touch display layers a protective shield over a capacitive panel that senses your touch using electrical fields. It then transmits that information to the Retina display below it. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flick through photos and enlarge them with a pinch, zoom in and out on a section of a web page, and control game elements precisely. FaceTime on iPod touch lets you hang out, catch up, and goof off with friends in an entirely new way. With just a tap, you can see what your friends are up to - literally. Witness a prank in action. Or watch your friend on the other side of the country crack up at your stories from last night - iPod touch to iPod touch or iPhone 4 over Wi-Fi. And all you need to get started is an Apple ID and an email account. You can choose an email account you already have or, if you prefer, set up a new one. You'll never see fun the same way again.
