About Apple 5th MP3 Multimedia Player

Fun was built into every millimeter of the thinnest, lightest iPod touch. It does more than ever, more powerfully than ever, from playing games to playing music to just playing around. And everything looks tremendous on the 4-inch Retina display.

For the first time, iPod touch is made from the same kind of anodized aluminum used in the MacBook line. And it's made the same way too: By machining the enclosure from a single piece of aluminum. The first thing you'll notice about iPod touch is its barely-there weight. Then its supersmooth finish. Then all those Apple details like the highly polished beveled edges. And iPod touch is made from one of the strongest grades of aluminum there is. Which means that it not only looks and feels incredible, it's tough enough to tag along on more thana few nights out.

There's a reason these iPod touch colors are so incredibly rich and vibrant. It's because they're bonded right to the aluminum not just painted on the surface. So you see saturated color that still lets the luster of the metal shine through. Which gives you a material that shows off the color, and a color that shows off the material.

The Retina display is tall but not wide. That means everything you do on iPod touch can be a one-handed operation, and your thumb has room to roam. The display is advanced, with finger-friendly Multi-Touch technology built into the glass instead of beneath it. So less gets between you and your games, music, messages whatever you love to see and do.

The iPod touch loop is a colorful way to keep your iPod touch at the ready.* That's perfect for when you want to shoot from a hard-to-reach camera angle. Flip iPod touch up to type a quick iMessage. Or just sport it when you're pocketless. The loop also keeps your iPod touch safe, so you don't have to worryabout a slip, fumble, drop, or overzealous robot dance.

The loop is easy to attach and detach. Just push the button on the back, slide the loop over it, give the loop a little tug, and you're good to go. The design is so streamlined, you won't even notice the button until you need it.

Creating one-earbud-fits-all headphones is a challenge. That's because everyone's ears are different. So when Apple engineers were designing the EarPods, they didn't start with the speaker, they started with the ear. Unlike traditional circular earbuds, the design of the Apple EarPods is based on the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphones.

But they're not just designed for the perfect fit. They're designed for the perfect sound, too. You'll hear deeper, richer bass and better audio all around.And they're incredibly stable in your ear. Which means they stay in, even when you're out and about.

Good design takes into account environmental impact. That's why nearly every Apple product is made from highly recyclable materials like aluminum, and why werefuse to use harmful toxins. Every iPod touch is free of toxic materials like brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). In fact, Apple has one of the strictest BFR-free and PVC-free standards in the industry. We even disassemble products and test all the components in our Cupertino lab to make sure our suppliers meetour environmental standards.

The iSight camera lets you take your best shots. Facebook integration gives you plenty to post about. (Or you can just ask Siri to post for you.) And, of course, there are endless games to play and endless music to listen to. All on the thinnest, lightest iPod touch ever.

When you see iPod touch for the first time, you won't believe your eyes. But when you hold it in your hand that's when you get how unbelievable it is. It weighs next to nothing, yet it's no lightweight: It still does all the gaming, surfing, messaging, and everything else you love, more powerfully than ever.

Apple designers and engineers tested 124 different prototypes of the EarPods on over 600 people to create Apple EarPods. The result? A really comfortable fit and incredible sound.

The iPod touch loop comes color-matched to your iPod touch, or you can buy othercolors separately. It's a fun way to keep your iPod touch safe at hand.

iPod touch has a 4-inch Retina display, so all your fun has a beautiful canvas. Your hairpin car-racing turns, your dance party playlist, your favorite celeb gossip site everything is sharp, vivid, and lifelike. And the display is a perfect widescreen fit for your HD movies and TV shows because you can watch them all without letterboxing.

One-handed use.. The iPod touch screen is tall, but not wide, so you have complete one-handed control.

Some moments are just begging for a photo. Your best friend's bizarro look-alikespotted on the street. An entire wall of graffiti art. A surreal-looking sunset.The iSight camera on iPod touch packs 5 megapixels seven times more than the previous generation and takes such great shots, you can ditch your point-and-shoot camera for good.1 And the surface of the iSight camera is made from sapphire crystal, whose hardness is second only to diamond when it comes totransparent materials. So the surface of the lens is more resistant to scratches.

Advanced optics, tap to focus, an LED flash, and face detection help you get theshot every time. The iSight camera shoots 1080p HD video, and the front-facing FaceTime HD camera makes FaceTime video calls. You can also use the front camerafor taking self-portraits or recording 720p HD video. And you can edit, crop, and enhance your photos right from iPod touch using the Photos app.

Dual-Core A-5 Chip, Power Meets Play: It's the most powerful iPod touch ever. That's because the dual-core A5 chip provides up to twice the processing power and up to seven times faster graphics than the previous generation. So games are incredibly responsive and realistic. Your samurai swordplay is sharper than ever, your zombie-dodging ultrasmooth. And because the A5 chip isn't a power hog, you get great battery life: up to 40 hours of music or 8 hours of video on a single charge.2 So you can keep on swinging, slicing, and racing. And listening, watching, and browsing.
