The still camera is a terrific addition
But not at only 960-by-720 quality
How small is too small when it comes to edge-mounted buttons
It is not specifically for movies
We wish it was compatible with more movie formats.
Low-resolution still camera
Narrower viewing angles than iPhone 4
Pricier than predecessor
The fifth-generation iPod Touch offers a larger screen
Faster processor
And superior photo and camcorder quality
Poor quality still pictures

No camera flash
So-so still photos
Body prone to smudges
Scratches
Quite expensive. Limited storage. Lousy earbuds.
No FM radio
No numerical battery
Low resolution and low quality still photography
Quite expensive
Lousy earbuds
Low-res camera
New screen and cameras fall noticeably short of iPhone 4 performance levels. Weak still camera performance is a particular issue on all models

The returning touch-screen champ, Apple’s 4th-generation iPod Touch retains its title with a Retina display, HD video recording, a faster processor,and a competitive price. ...
The iPod Touch is offered for as low as USD 229 or as high as USD 399 depending on the amount of inbuilt storage. In my opinion, the price is good. It's a direct hit. As far as the competition is concerned, we are talking about the previous generation...
Abstract: When it comes to music players, iPod is probably the first thing that strikes in to your mind which proves that this gadget is the world’s most famous music player. There are other manufacturers making music players but they haven’t come anywhere close...

The new iPod touch is a worthy successor to the third generation model. It is faster, lighter, more responsive and all round better than its predecessor! Highly recommended if you are a simple, intuitive touch based device, even if it comes with garbag...

Apple definitely needs to take the iPod touch camera to the gym three times a week for the next year in order to bulk up for a rematch. At the very least, the iPod touch needs to be prepared to take on new challengers ready to step into the square circle...
