Like the iPhone 5, the iPod touch 5 uses the new Lightning connector at the bottom. (Yes, the front camera this year is as good as the back camera of the last two years.)Īnd it absolutely embarrasses the the iPod touch 4's embarrassing VGA (480p) FaceTime camera.Ĭlose up, while the iPod touch 5 lacks the phone mic and the same grid design as the iPhone 5, they both now share similar layouts thanks to the iPhone 5 headset jack moving.
#IPOD 4 WHITE VS IPOS 5 720P#
The iPod touch 5's front-facing FaceTime HD camera, however, is the same as the iPhone 5's, capturing 720p video. (The iPod touch 3 had an even worse camera - none.) The iPod touch 5 iSight camera, of course, dwarfs the 720p (as in peashooter) found on the iPod touch 4. Lenses like depth, however, and the iPod touch 5 has very little of that, so it's impressive Apple got as good a sensor in there as they did. The iPod touch 5 has a 5 megapixel sensor, the same size as the iPhone 4. The iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S both have 8 megapixel sensors for their rear-facing iSight cameras. That's unlike the iPod touch 4 but similar to the iPod touch 3. While the iPhone 5 has a two-tone back made necessary by the large, glass, radio-transparent panels at the top and bottom, the iPod touch goes for edge-to-edge aluminum, albeit with a black, plastic radio panel in the top corner. (It's more dramatic on videos than it is on the Home screen, so we'll add some of those shots in soon.) Even at the same 50% brightness level, the iPod touch 4 display has far more "pop" (that's the technical term, I swear!) and IPS really improves the viewing angle.

As you'd expect, the iPod touch 5 looks every bit as good, bright, clear, crisp, and colorful as the iPhone 5 even at macro.Ĭompared to the iPod touch 4, the difference is far more noticeable.
