IPod Touch, worth it? Anyone own one?

#16867171 - 09/18/12 06:44 AM (14 years, 17 days ago)

I have had the ipod shuffle since its launch like 6+ years ago, I love the thing. I want an ipod though that I can put movies on to watch in the gym as I run or make playlists with and etc. The Ipod Touch 32 gig is $250 and seems worth it because I'll use it a lot. Anyone own this model?

I own an older model IPod touch...I use it probably as much or more than any item I have in my life. So my vote would be...FUCK YEAH BRAH-SKI

Cool well I was about to walk to best buy and buy it last night but someone told me to wait because the iphone 5 is launching so we may see a new ipod touch very soon so prices may drop... Any truth to this? Probably, apple is always releasing new shit.

Yeah, sounds probable. If you can hold off a little longer then you may wanna see if there's any truth to that. Me, I have the patience of a baby...if I *really* want it I usually just go get it. I've probably cost myself a ton of cash though with this strategy :wink:

Yeah you should hold out bro. Thats why I got my iphone 4 for 100 bucks because the 4s just
came out and I saved a bunch. But ipods are fucking awesome. I had a 1st gen touch and loved
it to its death which took years and beating after beating. But the ones now days are amazing
with the camera installed and such.

Yea it's funny because my birthday is coming so I was like
"Fuck it I'm gonna treat myself to somethin." I first thought
maybe it's time I bought a camera, then I realized my shuffle is starting to die.

The Ipod touch is 2 in 1, and the picture quality is pretty damn good on those things, seems totally worth it. Also, I was just informed it has wireless capabilities and I have a wireless router... this thing is becoming a no brainer.

Why not get an iPhone if you want an iPod Touch? When it comes down to it, the Touch and iPhone are pretty much the same thing, but one makes calls and connects to 3G/4G networks. It'll be many more than two birds with one stone.
To me it's a pain to carry around two cell phone size devices. Pretty much why I only use an iPod Nano. I guess some people don't mind so whatever. Just sayin'. :shrug:

If you sign a new contract, I believe the 32G iphone 5 will be $299.

Of course it'll cost you an additional $100/month in phone bills.

Or just get an android and play music on it.

Throw a 64gb sd card in it for an extra 50$, and you got plenty of room for music, and a good camera.

Once you're playing music, what's the difference? I agree the UX is better, but it really doesn't make a practical difference.

Great argument for why a slightly better user INTERFACE makes a practical difference for LISTENING to music.

Are their codecs better? I'm hooking my iphone up to a home stereo and would like to play FLAC off it. I know IOS has an app for them, but don't know about Android.

I wasnt trying to propose an argument you fuckin guy you.

Why are people still not bumping the fucking boom boxes and rocking the caset players ect...
Its still going to play music isnt it?

CONVENIENCE thats why. A more manageable user interface is nice and also desired.
