The iPod touch has, literally, everything. It is the flagship of Apple iPod is the best-selling device in the arsenal of the company with good reason.The iPod touch includes everything that makes Apple a great company. He has an iPhone-like design, it can run applications, it has multi-touch, HD video recording and video chat FaceTime. If this is not enough, Apple also put in a display of the retina chip A4 and 3-axis gyroscope.
Like I said, it has it all.
I don't play many games on my iPhone, but the ones I do play are more casual games. That's not really what my iPhone is for it's more of a communication device for me. However, the iPod touch is all about gaming.
It's very clear looking at the new touch that Apple is going with what consumers want and that's a gaming device. Steve Jobs said during the introduction of the touch that it had become the No. 1 portable game player in the world, outselling Nintendo and Sony combined.
That is an amazing feat for the touch, but when you throw in a faster processor, gyro and Game Center, you have to wonder what the traditional gaming platforms will do to catch up.
One of the features I enjoyed most about my new iPhone is the Retina display. I noticed it most on text because I read a lot of email and browse websites on my iPhone. Just wait until the games all start coming out with Retina display-optimized graphics wow. Not that the current games don't shine on the touch, they do, but you just know it's going to get better.
IPod Touch I spent this week IOS 4.1, I also got to try things like the Game Center. This gives players a new way to use games on the touch screen.
Game Center configuration, simply enter your e-mail, select your region has a nickname, and set some parameters that allow other people to invite you to play.
The faster A4 chip is an amazing addition for gamers. There is just no comparison between the old processor and this one. It speeds up every task you do, from opening apps to playing games.
The addition of FaceTime is huge for the iPod touch too. When you're not gaming, you can use the touch to video chat with others. It's really easy to setup too. Just enter your email address and Apple ID and you're done.
To make a call, you just tap the FaceTime app or go through your Address Book and choose thecontact you want to chat with. Very intuitive.
I love the addition of the front and back cameras on the iPod touch. Of course, you can take pictures, but more than that is the HD video camera. It shoots video at 30 frames per second in 720p. If you purchase iMovie for the iPod touch, you can edit and share your video without leaving the device. The quality of the videos is just superb.
The sloping design of the edges on the touch made it very comfortable to hold, especially in landscape mode, but it did cause some problems when connecting the USB cable. I'm assuming at this point, it's just something I have to get used to.
Of course, touch is the ability to use most applications on the App Store, as well as access to the Internet to surf the Internet and email on the wireless network and can be downloaded using the new Apple iBooks Pinging Service discover new music.
