My kids 9 &amp; 6 both want an iPod touch, is it worth going to the 5th generation (price wise)?

I had both the ipod touch 4 and then bought the 5 and I truly loved it. The screen is slightly larger and the graphics very very sharp. I loved it. I was very careful about doing any ios updates, though, as those tend to destroy battery life. I did NOT do the updates on mine and the battery charge lasts a long time. Many hours of reading but remember, uses more if games are played. They will love the ipod touch 5.

in my opinion i would go with the ipod touch i love mine and its great the screen size is just right but if you dont plan on taking either devices out of the house go with the ipad mini

Well if the ipod touch 5th generation is the same structure as the iphone 5, yes. I don't have an ipod anything. :) Sorry.

No but i hear they are not going to make ipod anymore so dont waste money. I like my fourth gen better than my 5th gen

Eh. Already have a 3rd Gen iPad. The big push for me is the cost of replacing the battery vs buying a new one. If I trade my iTouch in I can get $129. So that's $170 away from a replacement 5th gen iTouch. Then I gotta buy a stupid adapter. Replacing the battery when the time comes will cost me $79. Is the extra $100 or so bucks before adapters worth it? What happened to the 8 gb iTouch? I don't need 32 gb anymore!

On iPod gens 1-5 and all the iPhones. Yes, they do. Might I just show you these cheaper items too (very similar and do the same thing, note- I am NOT telling you what to buy) just trying to help you save a dime flr the holidays. happy buying amd merry christmas!

An MP3 Player is not a ridiculous gift for a 6 year-old. My son is getting IlluStory for his B-Day and he has an iPod Touch as well. One thing does not affect the other! The world now offers us many possibilities and I am sure kids that have parents aware of what is around will be successful and learn to use all the tools they need now and in the future!

I have Ipod Classic. It works great. Good volume and clear sound for my aerobic class. Love it. I hope someone with Ipod touch will give you a 'Yes" as well.

i'd go with the ipod classic if only music. even though it is very bulky you can get it for like 250 dollars and like 60+ gb which is more than enough

The iPod touch 5th Gen has lightning connector you will NOT need an additional connector

Yes. I have an older iPod and my daughter has a touch. We both hook up to it.

It's kinda like the difference between buying a 2009 Mustang GT and a 2010 Mustang GT. Yea the new body lines and refined interior are nice but it's a performance car. They are bought to perform well. So, if you plan to use your Ipod to play music or watch videos, good news. The first generation Ipod touch is going to do it with plenty of style. If you absolutely have to have built in speakers, a couple other bells and whisles, and like to be the guy or gal who has the newest and best of everything then the second or third generation are for you. :)

Yes. Just press down on the home button (depressed area at bottom of the screen). The 5th Generation is 5 times better than the 4th and worth 5 times more. It has just one problem: short battery life (esp. when loaded up with apps). Apple definitely needs to make that one improvement in the next model. Presently, I get no more than 2 hours. If I could do it again, I would go to the slightly thicker 32GB model, since the battery is likely to be bigger. All models that I own (2nd gen, two 4th gens, and the 5th gen. have proven indestructible and problem-free.

Hi, Yes, one can get Facebook and Twitter with iPod Touch 5th generation. As far as music and photos, it depends on how many apps/games one downloads on their iPod. It does come with a considerable amount of storage space (32 & 64 GB). I have downloaded several apps with large files and I still have plenty of space for music and photos. I hope my response is helpful! Be Well:)

Definitely the IPod 5th generation. It's faster, sharper, and overall better. Though if money is the issue, IPod 4th generation is still a great product! :-)

It's a good question. My guess is yes. I would tell you to go to the Apple store to try it out but they won't look at anything over 5 yrs old.

My iTouch is up-to-date with iOS 6.1.3. Due to the hardware, it cannot upgrade to 7. Probably iOS 6 would be the end-of-the-line for 4th generation since they're not made anymore.
