On May 28, 2019, Apple updated the iPod touch, making it the seventh-generation iPod touch release. Geared for the budget-friendly crowd or those looking for a music player without the need for cellular connectivity, the new iPod touch uses Apple's 2016 A10 Fusion processor and features a 4-inch LCD display with 1,136-by-640 resolution (about 326 pixels per inch) and support for AR games.
The rear camera is an 8-megapixel f/2.4 model limited to 1080p video, with slow motion video recording of up to 120 frames per second. The front FaceTime HD camera is a 1.2-megapixel sensor capped at 720p, with support for burst mode and exposure control.
Connection options include Lightning, 3.5mm audio, and 802.11ac Wi-Fi, but Bluetooth is 4.1 instead of 5.0.
There are some perks to the device. At $199 for 32 gigabytes, it's the cheapest "new" iOS device available, which makes it suitable for kids, the gym, or even as a home remote. Other capacities include 128 gigabytes for $299, while 256 gigabyte iPod Touch models retail for $399.
Without the drain of cellular, the 2019 iPod touch also has decent battery life. It's rated at 40 hours of music playback, and 8 hours for video.
