Calling it wafer thin would be an insult
Not a compliment. Screen is gorgeous
This is simply the best-looking iPod
Indeed the best-looking MP3 player we've ever laid eyes on. The Touch 4G is even thinner than its predecessors – any bulges have been eradicated to leave a sheer
Smooth device.The new Retina Display that it shares with the iPhone 4 is just as stunning with its crisp
Clear 960×640 display – perfect for album artwork or the new Games Centre capabilities.Indee

Back attracts fingerprints & scratches
It's not an iPhone
Rubbish camera
No FM radio or GPS
Reliance on iTunes
The camera is not the same as the iPhone 4's
The camera on the new iPod touch is still a touch disappointing. Stills top out at a maximum of 960×720
So you won't be replacing your cam with these just yet. And the fixed focus doesn’t help matters.The maximum capacity is a mere 64GB
So this is not for audiophiles. And the lack of FLAC support may put them off too. But then
This isn't a device designed for the audiophile market.
No FM radio
Still camera poor compared to iPhone 4
No GPS hardware.
Top end model is a lot of money
No Flash video support
FaceTime
Though excellent
Is of limited use
Lo-res stills capture. Not much AirPlay-compatible kit available at launch. Viewing angle not as good as iPhone 4. Bundled buds are bin bound
Rather expensive entrylevel model
Lightning connector compatibility issues
Price
Camera offering a little lacklustre
New design isn't as comfortable as the last version
Still a top-notch music player. Retina display makes text and images look incredibly sharp. Shoots HD video, takes photos. Front-facing camera for FaceTime video chat. Slimmer, narrower design. GameCenter allows social gaming with other iOS devices.
Quite expensive. Limited storage. Lousy earbuds.
The already superb iPod touch gets its most significant update in years, adding photo and video capture, along with FaceTime video chat and an ultra-high-res display. ...

Reading through this review, it should be clear that there isn't actually a whole lot to say about this device that hasn't already been said. The new touch isn't magical or revolutionary, or even unfamiliar. What it is, however, is a product without a pee...

Abstract: When Apple reshuffled the iPod lineup, the iPod touch became something else. It's not the expensive, fancy iPod. Or the cheap, gimped iPhone anymore. It's the iPod.AdvertisementIt's easy to say that it's the best iPod touch ever. (It is.) Every iPod of th...

It's white!, iOS 5 software rocks, Thinner than an iPhone, Retina Display, iCloud integration
Still need to use iTunes, Can't play common file formats, Specs looking out of date, Back attracts fingerprints & scratches, It's not an iPhone
There was no way we had room in this review to mention everything the iPod touch does. We haven't even touched on features like Internet browsing, email, maps and the gazillions of apps that totally transform what it's capable of, for example. We're real...
iOS 5 improvements are great, Best screen of any portable media player
We're smitten with the latest version of the iPod touch on almost every level. Additions such as Photostream and the editable playlists really enhance the player's usability while iCloud addresses some of the ‘tied to iTunes' concerns we've raised in the...
