Apple iPod Touch 5th Generation Review

64 GB     See other variants reviews Score: 62.7 / 100

Apple iPod Touch 5th Generation is a high-end device released in September 2012, including a 4" capacitive touch-screen, a fast 1 GHz Dual-Core processor, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 1.2 megapixels front facing camera.

Apple decided to sell this tablet with a Apple A5 system chip, packing a great performance Dual-Core processor ticking at 1 GHz with 512 MB RAM. Collaborating with graphic intensive apps, this tablet also has a 200 MHz PowerVR SGX543 MP2 GPU. The iPod Touch 5th Generation comes with an awesome 64 GB internal storage memory and though it doesn't have a slot for SD memory cards, it is still enough to store hundreds of apps and even the heaviest games currently available without even thinking about filling it.

This tablet is available in two colors, black and white. This tablet has a wonderful design, with a thickness of just 0.24". Apple has made a very nice job making this device weight only 3.1 ounces.

Apple packed this tablet with an amazing 4 inches display, and a 1136 x 640 resolution, providing this tablet device with an amazing graphical experience. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

This tablet provides wifi capability (although it can't be provided to other devices acting as a modem or router). This tablet doesn't use a sim card, because it's not a GSM enabled device.

This tablet has two cameras, a 5 MP back-facing camera and a 1.2 MP front camera. This device also captures videos in Full HD 1920x1080 at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also features a large number of great characteristics like auto-focus, flash, digital image stabilization, face detection shooting, geo tagging and HDR mode.

The Apple iPod Touch 5th Generation features a small sized 1030 mAh Li-Ion non-replaceable battery, which is quite low for a thirsty tablet like this. A key issue to take into consideration is that the iPod Touch 5th Generation's battery is not removable so you won't be able to replace it when it begins to have trouble holding its charge, having to change the whole tablet device.

This device also features Bluetooth (allows communication with other devices, computers, and accessories), and some sensors likeAccelerometer and Gyroscope.

This tablet is being sold for $ 265, expensive for a tablet this level. The iPod Touch 5th Generation is definitely a great option no matter whether you want this portable tablet to play lots of games, you love taking pictures or are looking for a tablet majorly for internet broswing and social networks. This tablet sells with Apple EarPods, iPod touch loop, Lightning to USB Cable and Quick Start guide.
