No GPS
Poorquality earbuds
Expensive
IPhone screen is better
Non-expandable / replaceable
Glossy screen reflects lots of ambient light
Not the same IPS panel as the new iPhone
Screen AND body is a FINGERPRINT magnet
Requires iTunes to load media on to it
Low resolution cameras
Storage is not upgradeable
Not compatible with 3rd gen cases
802.11n is only 2.4Ghz
Not 5Ghz support
Battery is not easily end user replaceable
Short warranty
Increased price over past model...
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 GPS receiver
No 16GB option
Rear-facing camera produces mediocre results
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
Lowest-end model has jumped $30 in price while remaining stuck at an increasingly objectionable 8GB/6.5GB o
Metallic finish collects more fingerprints than the NSA. Higherend models are fairly costly. No flash on the browser or the camera. Video recording and stillimage capture could be a touch (ha!) better
Below-average file support
Low-res rear camera
Smudgy mirror finish
Back camera quality is lowNeeds a GPS chipScreen is lacking IPS technology
While I would have preferred a higher quality camera on the iPod Touch, the iPhone 4 upgrades to the technology of the iPod Touch line are really quite phenomenal. Apple has created a device that works as Wi-Fi video phone, online mobile gaming machin...

It's white!, iOS 5 software rocks, Thinner than an iPhone, Retina Display, iCloud integration
Still need to use iTunes, Can't play common file formats, Specs looking out of date, Back attracts fingerprints & scratches, It's not an iPhone
There was no way we had room in this review to mention everything the iPod touch does. We haven't even touched on features like Internet browsing, email, maps and the gazillions of apps that totally transform what it's capable of, for example. We're real...
iOS 5 improvements are great, Best screen of any portable media player
We're smitten with the latest version of the iPod touch on almost every level. Additions such as Photostream and the editable playlists really enhance the player's usability while iCloud addresses some of the ‘tied to iTunes' concerns we've raised in the...

Photo quality doesn't hold up to the iPhone 4's; there's no GPS, and no option for 3G data service

Rich display, faster processor, HD video recording, front and back cameras
Poor camera resolution, no camera flash, no in-line microphone on included ear buds
The new iPod Touch is the best dedicated music player that Apple has released to date. The 'Retina' display, iOS4 and the faster processor mean that listening to music, playing games and surfing the Web are easier and more enjoyable than with its predeces...
