What does the 5th or 6th generation mean? How can you know you're buying the newest model?

It's confusing. This juicer is 6th gen. But the rule is: 8003 and 8005 are the same, 8005is in chrome color. 8004 and 8006 are the same, 8006 is in chrome color. 8007 and 8008 are the same, 8008 is in chrome color. And the nc 800 and 900 are the same, but in different color. 8003-8006 is the 4th gen, 8007-8008 are the 5th gen. And the NCseries are the 6th gen. I hope it's helpful to you

Nothing except the colors. The 4th Generation have a shinier finish in Silver, Orange, Blue, Green and Pink. The 5th Generation is much more matte, like the 2nd Generation of shuffle and comes in Blue, Green, Pink, Yellow, Purple, Silver, and Slate(my personal fave).

quick answer, nothing. lol. As far as I can tell the only real difference between 5 vs 6 & 7 is the color. I used the trial verstion of 7.0 and I'm sticking with my 5.0 until they make a version with something new.

If it has a camera on it it's probably the 4th generation. The one in the picture is a 4th gen

This is the LATEST model currently offered for sale by Apple. There are rumors on the Web of a newer model coming out for the Christmas shopping season.

I'm not certion, I shopped so many I cant not recall. I believe this is a 4th generation.This laptop is serving me well and quite fast as I do quite a bit of multitasking and going back and forth between screens.

I think the reason that Amazon is selling the 5th Generation iPod Nanos for $20 less than list is that there are newer (6th Generation) ones. (Note product titles which clearly indicate product generation.) On Apple's site, the only new iPod Nanos for sale are the 6th Generation ones. Any 5th Generation Nanos that you see there are refurbished ones.

I think it depends on the seller and the particular color. I asked my sellar about 2 particular colors and she confirmed it was the new model. :)

I just got off the phone with Health Check Systems and customer service did not know. She gave me a "cookie-cutter" answer to tell me that the 2013 and 2014 were the same model but I know they are not. One of the pictures posted shows a 2014 model but there's no guarantee that is what you're purchasing and will receive. They could be trying to get rid of older models. It's a gamble if you order through them.

I also have the 80Gb 5G and love it, but I'm afraid it's going to go on me any minute, because I've just flat out worn it out, not to mention it's FULL. Can someone confirm for me, though: is the 120Gb 6th generation or 7th generation? Can't find anything on the Apple site and Amazon says 6th, but I keep seeing references on Ebay, etc. that say 7th. The 6th generation came out in 9/07, and I want to be sure I'm getting the most recent model. Is there a 7th generation, or is it expected to come out maybe later this year? I can certainly wait! Thanks! zoomlens

the 4 generation has a camera on front and back the third and lower don't and the 4 gen its slimmer than the third, the 5th gen its just different than the other ones. and the 4th generation are with the front where the screen is white or black and you see he little whole from the camera on the top. i hope i am not that confusing and that it help you.

the unit i got was 5th generation. it has to have voice over ability. when i go onto the web, you do have to be careful about the descriptions. there are some 4 th generation shuffles out there. voice over is cool and helpful. always get the newest version.

Generation seven should have MC in the model description. Generation six has MB. Go to Settings, About, then the third page should show you the serial and model.

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.

I bought this before then so I wouldn't know for sure. It's likely still the prior version. I'd assume they'd list a new version as another product.

The picture is the live 5. Make sure you figure out the return policy if you get the 3 instead. I got the live 5

I just bought an 80 gb ipod here on amazon that's a 5.5 generation. i should have looked more, but i had it saved on my wish list from a few months ago and assumed it was still the newest one! I haven't recieved it yet, but it has already been mailed out and i can't change it. i paid 250 for it because i bought it from one of the sellers, but i am wondering if i should return it and have to wait longer for the new ipod, or if the differences between the 5.5 gen and the new one are too subtle to really make a difference... I don't know what to do and i'm really sad about it because this is my first ipod.
