The latest iPod Touch sports a 4-inch screen just like its iPhone 5 counterpart.
Unveiled by Apple today, the new Touch measures a thin 6.1mm and weighs in at a selvte 88 grams.
Powered by the A5 chip currently found in the iPhone 4s, the new Touch is designed to kick in with a faster performance than its predecessor. Apple also touts a battery life that offers 40 hours of music and 8 hours of video.
Photo and video buffs will find a rear 5-megapixel camera with a host of features, including a microphone, flash, autofocus, a 2.4 aperture, backside illumination, and a five-element lens. The Touch also comes with the new Panorama feature that lets you snap a series of photos to create a 360-degree panoramic picture. The camera also allows you to shoot 1080p video.
A front camera can handle Facetime HD at 720p. And completing the Touch's role as a camera is an "iPod Touch loop" that lets you attach a wrist strap to it.
Connections include Bluetooth 4.0 w/LE and 802.11 a/b/g/n, just like on the iPhone 5. And the Touch also uses Apple's new Lightning dock connector.
Prices and availability? Selling at $299 for the 32GB version and $399 for the 64GB version, the new Touch will reach consumers in October.
