Apple has today announced a new iPod Touch lineup to compliment its Apple Music streaming service, debuting a high-end $399 model with 128GB of storage.
All versions include a 64-bit A8 processor, an M8 motion co-processor, and a 8-Megapixel rear camera. Although some details of the new iPod we’re known, it was a pleasant surprise to hear of the device using the same Apple A8 CPU powering the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. It has been reported by TechCrunch that the processor is running at 1.1Ghz, instead of the 1.4Ghz clock speed used on the iPhone, while retaining 1 full gig of ram for memory. Even at a slower clock speed, the upgrade brings a very significant performance boost.
The 16GB model start at $199, with the 32GB model coming in at $249, and $299 for the 64GB model. The new iPod Touch lineup is available in three new colors: gold, hot pink, and a darker shade of blue than was previously offered. The new iPod touch units ship with iOS 8.4, which supports the new Apple Music service that will set you back $9.99 per month.
The M8 processor in the iPod Touch includes a pedometer that will help the device compete with the likes of the FitBit and other step-tracking accessories. Other than the aforementioned changes and colors, the iPod Touch remains relatively unchanged as far as design and internals go.
