Is there a market for iPods when so many people own iPhones
An unlocked iPhone 4 might be an alternative option worth considering
Lacks rear-facing camera
Smallest capacity
Very pricey
IOS still problematic
If there’s a problem
It’s more with the timing than anything else. More than half the UK population is now rocking a smartphone in their pocket
And even if it’s not an iPhone in yours
There’s a good chance it’s a touchscreen smartie with most of the same skills - and screen size. Why carry two gadgets that jump online

Still reliant on the Apple-verse

The new iPod Touch is improved in almost every way, and makes a terrific portable entertainment system for music, video, photography and games. But at this sort of price I’m not entirely sure who it’s aimed at anymore. Apple-loving adults will probabl...

The new iPod touch is as impressive as you’d expect it to be, though in 2012 that in itself might be the problem: it’s only what you expect it to be. A colourful backing can’t mask the fact that with smartphones becoming more and more powerful, the iPo...
Good-quality screen, Superb apps and games library, Much-improved camera
Entry price a little high, Loop lanyard feels gimmicky
Now that the iPod touch range starts at £249.99, it isn't quite as accessible as it once was for cash-strapped folk that can't afford iPhones. However, the iPod touch 5th generation is doubtless the best iPod touch made yet. Strong design, and significant...

When it comes to a device to play music and video, you can't really ask for more than the iPod touch delivers. This is the best screen on any media device of its size, there's decent storage capacity on both models and the graphical power means this ca...

Price aside, whether you're in it for the apps, games, or media, this is an iPod you'll treasure. With its improved cameras, zippy performance, bright and roomy display, support for Siri, and more colorful and statuesque form, the fifth-generation iPod to...

Despite twoyear gap since prior model's release, most of the new features are a full step behind leading iPhone and iPad models, cementing the new iPod touch as a smaller, betterscreened remake of the iPhone 4S rather than as an iPod that separately justi

Offers most of the same specs as higherpriced iPod touches, Has an attractive price
Provides no rearfacing camera, color options, or wrist strip
The fifth-generation iPod touch is the greatest iPod of its kind that Apple's made. But the somewhat stripped-down 16GB model makes some definite compromises to offer the same screen size and processing power as its higher-capacity brethren at a more ent...
