Apple’s Best Media Player Yet
Where do I start? I bought this for my girlfriend, whose oohs and ahhs over my 2nd gen touch prompted me to get this for her birthday. The iPod touch has really become the new standard in portable media players, cannibalizing the competition. The new updates such as the retina display and LED backlighting make images as lifelike as possible—I can’t even see the pixels when I hold it up to my eye. Games look better, interface is cleaner, and album art just “pops.” The system is snappy, and switching apps is a breeze. The update to 4.1 brought multitasking, and I have to say I can’t imagine living without it. It’s mostly just listening to pandora while surfing the web, but it’s still a welcome addition. The cameras are just so-so, and don’t really hold a candle to the iPhone’s REAL HD back cam with flash. But perfectly adequate for VGA quality. Facetime doesn’t really need a high quality cam anyway. Its frame is even thinner than the previous generation’s, but the back is still a glossy fingerprint/scratch magnet. It would have been nice to see the oleo phobic coating and IPS display of the iPhone, but I’m sure this minor complaint will go unnoticed my most people. 512 Megabytes of memory would also be nice to match the iPhone 4, but in everyday use, I never noticed any lag when playing music or running games. As with most flash memory media players, space is an issue for audiophiles, but Apple’s done a really good job of marketing this iPod as a universal tool, not a niche music player. This iPod isn’t perfect, but it’s damn near close. If my own touch weren’t in perfect working condition, I’d snap one of these babies up in a heartbeat.
