Should I buy the 4g iPod touch now? April 2012

Hello. I am looking to buy a new iPod touch, but I need the latest and greatest. Now, here are my speculations:
The New iPad just came out, so I don't know when Apple is going to have their next event. I assume theier next even will be in about 2 months, and the invitation for this event will be about music. In the event they will announce all new iPods, including the new iPod touch, Nano, Shuffle, and maybe even the iPod Classic. (By the way, if they don't release a new Classic, they will end it's production line.)
The iPod touch will include a new 5 MP camera as seen on the New iPad, No A5 X Chip (The reason I think it won't get the A5 X chip is because Apple usually wants the iPhone to get the upgraded specs before the iPod, and the iPhone has not recived the A5X Chip yet.), and some other features like keyboard voice dictation. This new iPod will NOT have Siri. Thats all I can think of for speculations of the new iPod touch.
Can someone tell me if these speculations seem correct, or I'm speaking nonsense, and should not wait for the new iPod touch. The only thing I'm intrested in the new iPod is the upgraded camera, otherwise I would get the current iPod now. I want your thoughts, opinions, rumors, whatever... What do you think?

It's against the Terms of Use of this forum to speculate about future products and you agreed not do it when you signed up to the forum.
So even if we wanted to, we cannot add to your discussion. Quited frankly, what would be the point? If - and I stress if - a new iPod is ever announced, and it is missing any or all of the features you've expressed an interest in, you will simply be disappointed with it.
Feel free to post your thoughts in a non-Apple forum, but it's a waste of your time to do so here.

  • Should I buy the new iPod touch? My concern when buying really only Siri. The only drawback is the high price. What would you do?

    Do you think guys that it will take about a year for it's future update ? Please help me decide .

    Only Apple knows what they will be doing and they have not told outsiders yet.  Maybe new harware in about a year but maybe earlier or later.  If you wnat the4G purchase it.

  • Should I buy the new iPod Touch?

    So I've had my iPod Touch 3G, 8GB (considered 2G, though), for about 3 years now. It's still in good condition except for a few cracks in the screen, and a slower processing speed. It also quits apps unexpectedly, and other minor problems like that. My question is should I replace my old iPod Touch with the new one with FaceTime, HD recording, a camera, iOS 5, and iCloud, and other features?

    the iPod touch 4th gen hardware ( the currently one is the 2010 model except for the new colour option ) is comparable to that of the iphone4 but with the major difference : iPod has 256MB of memory and the Backside camera has only 0,7Megapixels instead of the iphone4 which has 5MP. ( 4s = 8MP )
    I have the iPod touch and am very very pleased with it. Aside from the "only 0,7MP" the camera creates brilliant HD Movies ( outdoors and in daylight ).  It runs the latest games and apps. I have yet to find a game that does not run on it. The display is the very same as in the iphone4 with Retina. Compared to the 3rd gen everything looks cripy and non-pixelated. You can even read small text without zooming into it.
    It is also a perfect mini pocket computer for office use, if you buy the iwork apps ( Use them everyday in iPod ) .
    It will also run iMovie and the new Cards.app and many many others.
    And iOS5 is even faster then iOS4 .( to me it feels so ).
    I recommend it. But it is up to you.

  • Should I buy the new iPod Touch or just keep my 4th generation iPod

    I don't know if i should upgrade. I like the bigger screen but I haven't got a lot of money

    But if it had the Apple version of maps I won't be getting it. My sister's getting a 5th gen for christmas and I wanted to know if it was better or just a bigger version of the 4th gen. And my 4th gen is fast but I only have about 4 apps on it
    Thanks

  • Ok, so I want to buy the new iPod touch 5g this week and I have an iPhone 4. I want to transfer all the data from the phone to the iPod and have the files the exact same. I don't want to redo data, say erase game data (campaigns, achievements)...

    Ok, so I want to buy the new iPod touch 5g this week and I have an iPhone 4. I want to transfer all the data from the iPhone to the iPod and have the files the exact same. I don't want to redo data, say erase game data (campaigns, achievements)... I have apps that have very important data on them and if I sync it to iTunes and then transfer all that data to the iPod Touch 5g, will that erase app data?

  • Does it make a sense to buy  a new ipod touch now?

    Is ok. to buy an ipod touch now or should I wait until some "software update" comes? I wouldn't want to pay additional 10$ or 20$ next month to be able to access some new features.

    At first glance, I said whoa! But then I thought, I have my BlackBerry Pearl with T-Mobile and realized, well, since I got the phone for $0.01 in November and was required to have a data plan, hmm... I think Amazon had an agreement with T-Mobile on requirements of keeping the data plan for 6 months. And after reading the Wall Street Journal this morning, I further learned of the subsidizing AT&T is doing with this version for a change. That means that AT&T might one day allow the phone to be unlocked in contrast to the first generation iPhone. But come on folks, why would Apple or AT&T price the 2nd Generation iPhone at $199 up front? Hmm... Let's think logically. It's to attract new customers agreeing to a two year commitment! Do you really think you can buy the BlackBerry Curve with AT&T for $99 outright? No. Logic tells us that Scott's math is truth. So I give kudos to Scott for this. Those who don't understand this are the same people who think that if they lose their phone after 5 months, they get mad at the cell phone provider for not replacing the phone at the initial "cost".

  • If i buy a new ipod touch now, can i exchange it for the new version?

    I am gonna get a new ipod touch 8GB as part of the education deal when buying an imac before the 7th sept. I am wondering if i can exchange it for one of the new ones when they are announced and in stores a week or two later? If i bought a macbook pro in store or online i know i can exchange it within 30 days (by paying a price difference to the new model) or get a discount (if the prices for the old model went down within 30 days of me purchasing).
    Would this apply to the ipod touch too, if i get it through the education store?

    Sorry, but the iPod touch from the Back-To-School promotion could not be returned nor exchanged. The promotion is actually a rebate (unless you're referring to a promotion other than in the US); you choose your qualifying iPod model and purchase it, and will then get a rebate back of up to $199 (it varies depending on the model of iPod you choose).
    The US promotion applies only to specific iPod models and expires on September 7th, so it would not apply to any iPod model released after that date. For the full terms, see:

  • What kind of case should I buy for new ipod touch?

    There seem to be so many different kinds.  I see that they have hard plastic ones and soft, silicone type ones.  Which is more durable and will protect the ipod better if dropped?  Also, what is a screen protector?  Do I need to buy a pack of these in addition to the case or do cases already have screen protectors?  If they are separate, do they make any cases that protect the screen on their own?

    The best case is no case at all.
    Just like camera cases from years ago, the case just gets in the way when you want to use it.  We called them never-ready cases.
    Screen protectors will deflect some scratches, but I have yet to find one that does not degrade the image quality.
    I do not work for Best Buy and am not affiliated with them in any way. I like HT and want to help people improve their HT experience. "There is a LOT more than just having a TV to make a home theater"

    Only on the online Apple store and (I think) at physical apple stores.

  • Should I buy the 2013 13" macbook pro or 2012 15"(refurbished) macbook pro

    Hey guys, so basically to start off, I've never bought a mac before however i have an iphone 5, ipad 3rd gen, and ipod nano 3rd gen. So im now looking for a new laptop as my windows desktop is pretty old and slow. I've been looking at buying either the 2013 13" retina display macbook pro or the 2012 15" refurbished macbook pro. Im at university studying civil engineering, so im mainly going to be using it for creating documents and using some subject specific programmes as well as the normal stuff such as social networking, photos, watching movies etc. The reason I am looking at getting the mid-2012 refurbished 15" is because of the larger screen, dvd drive, and i7 processor,and easier cababilities of upgrading and repairing, however ive also heard that the new mavericks system can slow down the performance of older macs. Obviously the retina display of the 2013 13" would be nice but not exactly necessary for me and also therefore, it feels as though i would be getting more for my money with the 2012 15". The cost of the 13" i5 2013 will be £945.60 (education pricing) and £1,189.00 for the 15" i7 2012 (I wouldnt want to be paying more than that). Any advice would be amazing as im really stuck between choosing these two!! Thanks

  • Does someone know when the new ipod touch is coming?

    Does it makes sence to buy the old ipod touch now or should we wait?

    Only you can make that decision. Apple has not made any announcement on a new iPod touch. It is against the terms of use of this Apple forum to speculate on such things.

  • Why does DVD Studio Pro compress my 3GB video?
