You can never have too much fun
The iSight camera lets you take your best shots. Facebook integration gives you plenty to post about. (Or you can just ask Siri to post for you.) And, of course, there are endless games to play and endless music to listen to. All on the thinnest, lightest iPod touch ever.
Thinnest, lightest iPod touch ever
For the first time, iPod touch is made from the same kind of anodised aluminium used in the MacBook line. And it's made the same way too: by machining the enclosure from a single piece of aluminium. Which means the first thing you'll notice about iPod touch is its barely-there weight. Then its super-smooth finish. Then all those Apple details -- like the highly polished bevelled edges. And iPod touch is made from one of the strongest grades of aluminium there is. Which means that it not only looks and feels incredible, it's tough enough to tag along on more than a few nights out.
There's a reason these iPod touch colours are so incredibly rich and vibrant. It's because they're bonded directly to the aluminium -- not just painted on the surface. So you see saturated colour that still lets the lustre of the metal shine through. Which gives you a material that shows off the colour, and a colour that shows off the material.
One hand rules the screen
The Retina display is tall but not wide. Which means everything you do on iPod touch can be a one-handed operation, and your thumb has room to roam. The display is advanced, with finger-friendly Multi-Touch technology built into the glass instead of beneath it. So less gets between you and your games, music, messages -- whatever you love to see and do
Keep fun close at hand
The iPod touch loop is a colourful way to keep your iPod touch at the ready. That's perfect for when you want to shoot from a hard-to-reach camera angle (and don't want to risk it falling out of your hand). Flip iPod touch up to type a quick iMessage. Or just sport it when you're pocketless. The loop also keeps your iPod touch safe, so you don't have to worry about a slip, fumble, drop or overzealous robot dance
The new shape of sound
Creating one-earbud-fits-all headphones is a challenge. That's because everyone's ears are different. So when Apple engineers were designing the EarPods, they didn't start with the speaker, they started with the ear. Unlike traditional circular earbuds, the design of the Apple EarPods is based on the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphones.
But they're not just designed for the perfect fit. They're designed for the perfect sound too. You'll hear deeper, richer bass and better audio all round. And they're incredibly stable in your ear. Which means they stay in, even when you're out and about.
4 inch Retina display
iPod touch has a 4-inch Retina display, so all your fun has a beautiful canvas. Your hairpin car-racing turns, your dance party playlist, your favourite celeb gossip site -- everything is sharp, vivid and lifelike. And the display is a perfect widescreen fit for your HD films and TV programmes because you can watch them all without letterboxing.
iSight Camera
The 5-megapixel iSight camera on iPod touch takes such great shots, you can ditch your point-and-shoot camera for good.1 Advanced optics, tap to focus, an LED flash and face detection help you get the perfect shot. Capture whole landscapes with the panorama feature. Shoot 1080p HD video. Or use the front-facing FaceTime HD camera to make video calls. You can even edit, crop and enhance your photos from iPod touch using the Photos app.
With iOS 7, taking photos with iPod touch gets even better. There's a new square format option. And there's a set of built-in filters that let you create unique effects. Shoot with a selected filter, or add it later. You can even remove the filter effect after you've taken the shot. For more editing options, try iPhoto or iMovie, available in the App Store.
Panorama
Use the panorama feature to grab a sweeping shot of your favourite city skyline, an end-of-year school photo or your dachshund stretched out at naptime. Just tap the button, move the camera over the scene and iPod touch seamlessly creates the perfect wide shot.
Dual Core A5 Chip
It's the most powerful iPod touch ever. That's because the dual-core A5 chip provides up to twice the processing power and up to seven times faster graphics than the previous generation. So games are incredibly responsive and realistic. Your samurai swordplay is sharper than ever, your zombie-dodging ultra-smooth. And because the A5 chip isn't a power hog, you get great battery life: up to 40 hours of music or 8 hours of video on a single charge. So you can keep on swinging, slicing and racing. And listening, watching and browsing.
