Mary,

Thanks for the answer :)
If I'm not going wrong, this is running iOS 10. But it's been a while since I 
last played with the toy so I'm really not sure.

Re: New iPod touch announced

[Gerardo Corripio]

I don’t think so. You’d need to buy the newer 7th Generation one. Nevertheless 
try updating to see up to what iOS version it goes up to. I’d say maybe it goes 
up to 9 or ten?

Re: New iPod touch announced

You would have to get a new iPod to update to the latest iOS. The sixth 
generation iPod I believe does work on iOS 12, but not the fifth. And whether 
the sixth Jan will work on iOS 13 is as yet unknown of course.

Re: New iPod touch announced

I have an iPod 5th generation. At that time I bought it because I wanted 
something Apple to play with, and I couldn't afford the iPhone Prices 
here in my country (Brazil).


Since we are on this topic, can I update my iPod 5th generation to the 
latest iOS or would I have to buy a new one?

My experience is just like yours, richard. My first device was also an iPod 
touch third-generation, and I loved it. That is after I got used to the 
touchscreen. Typing was particularly challenging. I was just hoping for a 
better processor, because I have an iPhone 7 Plus which is pretty much acting 
like an iPod touch now. Had they put a better processor in it, I probably would 
have gone for one. But with the iPhone 7 Plus, I don’t see the point.

Also, I rarely listen to music on my iPhone. Sometimes when I'm out or

iPod is better solution for that.

  Hello Mary, Sieghard and list

  Just my few cents. I bought the last iPod touch 6th Gen which was 
available in SA two years ago. Maybe I am ignorant but I can not find anything 
that the Touch can do which my iPhone 7 can't do and even the battery life is 
not so good. Had I known this I would just have obtained an iPhone with more 
memory, exactly what I am going to do at the end of the year when my iPhone 
contract expires. So the short and the long is that I can't understand why 
Apple produces new iPods when an iPhone can do the same and much more or are 
there features of the iPod which I miss?

  Well, I would not have minded a $50 price increase for a better chip

They’re just being cheap. My guess is that in two years, that thing is not 
going to be seeing updates any more. Then what?

I know people complain why Apple didn't put their latest A12 chip into 
the iPod Touch, but the same people would probably complain if Apple did and it 
would cost $50 or $80 more, also, I have a feeling that for what most people 
use an iPod Touch for simply does not require such a powerful processor.

No, the iPod Touch is only a Wi-Fi device, with no cellular capacity. 

You can do FaceTime audio or video calls over Wi-Fi, or Skype.

But, you can use any app on the iPod Touch that you can use on the iPhone if it 
does not require cellular data.

For comparison, the iPod touch 6th generation has the A8 chip, the new touch 
has the A10 chip. The iPhone SE has the A9 chip; so the new Touch can do all 
the Augmented Reality visual stuff, etc.  

It would appear to still have a home button, 3.5 MM earphone Jack, etc.

Just out of curiosity, I checked for refurbished iPod Touch 6th generation 
touches and a 128 GB model is $215 while a new Touch with the same memory is 
$299.

I guess it depends on what one will be doing with it whether it would be worth

Going from an iPod Touch 5th Gen to this newly announced model would be a huge 
difference, the 5th generation iPod touch has an A5 chip which is even a step 
down from the iPhone 5 which had an A6 chip which means  it was far from 
supporting 64 Bit.
I know people complain why Apple didn't put their latest A12 chip into the iPod 
Touch, but the same people would probably complain if Apple did and it would 
cost $50 or $80 more, also, I have a feeling that for what most people use an 
iPod Touch for simply does not require such a powerful processor.

It has a 4 inch screen, same as the iPhone 5 or 5S, but a bit smaller than a 
6/6s/7 or 8, also thinner and apparently even the newest iPod Touch still has a 
3.5mm headphone jack.

No, the iPod Touch is only a Wi-Fi device, with no cellular capacity.
You can do FaceTime audio or video calls over Wi-Fi, or Skype.
But, you can use any app on the iPod Touch that you can use on the iPhone if it 
does not require cellular data.

RE: New iPod touch announced

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I once kept my old iPhone, the 5S at the time, after I got my 6S. I thought I 
could use it at home just like an iPod Touch, but I quickly realized that this 
arrangement was not for me. I ended up always using my 6S, I found it 
inconvenient to update both devices and even though Audible books play fairly 
seamlessly on another device where you left off, it occasionally does not work, 
then I have to find my spot and so on. I appreciate how some may find it just 
right to have an iPhone and an iPad or iPod Touch, but for me having my iPhone 
and my PC is equally perfect. As far as phone calls and such interrupting when 
I listen that is perfectly fine for me, if I listen to a book and somebody 
calls I want to stop the book anyways so if it stops automatically and then 
continues to play when I hang up that is I think pretty sweet. When it comes to 
music then I almost always listen via Sonos at home and if I do listen on my 
iPhone and somebody calls the same applies, I would want my music to stop 
anyways. I much prefer to maybe get a new battery installed if I use the one on 
my iPhone a lot and recharge it a lot, still much cheaper than to pay hundreds 
of Dollars for a device which is basically the same as what I have with less 
features.

Sieghard

My experience is just like yours, richard. My first device was also an iPod 
touch third-generation, and I loved it. That is after I got used to the 
touchscreen. Typing was particularly challenging. I was just hoping for a 
better processor, because I have an iPhone 7 Plus which is pretty much acting 
like an iPod touch now. Had they put a better processor in it, I probably would 
have gone for one. But with the iPhone 7 Plus, I don’t see the point.

  Going from an iPod Touch 5th Gen to this newly announced model would be a 
huge difference, the 5th generation iPod touch has an A5 chip which is even a 
step down from the iPhone 5 which had an A6 chip which means  it was far from 
supporting 64 Bit.
  I know people complain why Apple didn't put their latest A12 chip into the 
iPod Touch, but the same people would probably complain if Apple did and it 
would cost $50 or $80 more, also, I have a feeling that for what most people 
use an iPod Touch for simply does not require such a powerful processor.

You could possibly use it for beta testing if you're into that. Or a

A12.

They should at least have put in the A11 chip.

Re: New iPod touch announced

[Gerardo Corripio]

I’d really like one as mentioned before! Especially not to have to use up so 
much of my iPhone’s battery for media! Just now, for instance, in a little over 
an hour, or so that it took me to clear out a bunch of podcasts and listen to 
several,my phone’s battery went down from a 100% to 60% also when reading, 
listening to podcasts or other media on the phone, I turn off the speech, and 
switch the phone to mute so as not to be interrupted. I sure with there were a 
way to get my hands on one without having to bother my parents into! My uncle’s 
going to San antonio next week, thus I could ask him to bring me one since they 
don’t sell them here in Mexico yet.

Re: New iPod touch announced

[Richard Turner]

The iPod Touch is geared for people who either do not want a cell phone; or 
want a device to use for non-phone functions like music, books, games, etc.
My first accessible Apple device was the iPod touch 3rd generation because I 
did not want an iPhone in those days.
That was 10 years ago this November.
It took several years before I decided I wanted an iPhone.
Part of the reason back then was I didn't want to spend money on a cell phone 
plan.
I've had lots of clients over the years that went with either an iPod Touch or 
iPad because they did not want or couldn't afford, the cell phone plan.

Re: New iPod touch announced

[Richard Turner]

No, the iPod Touch is only a Wi-Fi device, with no cellular capacity.
You can do FaceTime audio or video calls over Wi-Fi, or Skype.
But, you can use any app on the iPod Touch that you can use on the iPhone if it 
does not require cellular data.

HTH,
Richard

Re: New iPod touch announced

 Well, I would not have minded a $50 price increase for a better chip which 
would mean more updates. Also, they should’ve made the entry level 64. They’re 
just being cheap. My guess is that in two years, that thing is not going to be 
seeing updates any more. Then what?

Re: New iPod touch announced

[Richard Turner]

For comparison, the iPod touch 6th generation has the A8 chip, the new touch 
has the A10 chip. The iPhone SE has the A9 chip; so the new Touch can do all 
the Augmented Reality visual stuff, etc.
It would appear to still have a home button, 3.5 MM earphone Jack, etc.
Just out of curiosity, I checked for refurbished iPod Touch 6th generation 
touches and a 128 GB model is $215 while a new Touch with the same memory is 
$299.
I guess it depends on what one will be doing with it whether it would be worth 
it.

I know people complain why Apple didn't put their latest A12 chip into the iPod 
Touch, but the same people would probably complain if Apple did and it would 
cost $50 or $80 more, also, I have a feeling that for what most people use an 
iPod Touch for simply does not require such a powerful processor.

You could possibly use it for beta testing if you're into that. Or a streaming 
device. Yeah I don't know why they did the A7 instead of the A11 or A12.
They should at least have put in the A11 chip.

It's basically a less feature rich iPhone 7, but at iPad Mini/ cheap iPad Air 
prices.
That and come on Apple. What are you doing still selling anything new with 32 
GB?

Re: New iPod touch announced

I was hoping to know size, seeif they do a baby tablet, about the size of the 
   don't know modern sizes,  say 6"or so, bigger 
than they used to be for sure.

But you're right, the price graduations make it impractical to be honest.

Thanks, RobH.

Subject: New iPod touch announced


I thought I would pose this question, since Apple just announced the update of 
the iPod touch today. It will have the a10 processor, 
the same one that is in an iPhone 7 or 7+. That makes it two years old going on 
three, just like my iPhone 7 Plus. No other 
significant changes that I am aware of, except the space. The cheapest one has 
32 GB for $200, 128 for 300, and 256 for 400. Earlier 
this year, they released the iPad mini five, with the A 12 chip. That is the 
current chip. I can’t remember the prices for iPad 
mini, but my gut reaction when I saw this, it was that Apple was cheeping out. 
They should have given us at least the A 11 if not 
the 12th. I am really disappointed. I was looking forward to perhaps purchasing 
an iPod touch, but now that I see that it has the 
same processor as my iPhone 7 Plus, forget it.

Thoroughly unimpressed. You’re better off grabbing an iPhone 7 or snagging a 
new iPad mini on sale or even an iPad air.

Re: New iPod touch announced

['Maria Reyes' via VIPhone]

You could possibly use it for beta testing if you're into that. Or a streaming 
device. Yeah I don't know why they did the A7 instead of the A11 or A12. 
They should at least have put in the A11 chip.
