IPod Touch 6: Overview of the features of the device

Apple every year updates its devices and tries to set new trends. By releasing fresh versions of devices, the creators offer the technology market any new highlights or chips. Did not pass the tradition aside and the multimedia player iPod Touch 6, the review of which you will read below.

What is it and what does it eat?

A new generation of iPods saw the light in the summer of 2015 as part of a traditional exhibition at which Apple presents its novelties and developments. Revolutionary sixth generation can not be named. Most likely, it is polishing and finalizing previously proposed ideas and technologies. Together with the iPod Touch 6, the presentation also featured iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle.

The upgrade of the multimedia player has been asking for a long time, because the previous fifth generation existed for about three years, which is a long time for the modern mobile and entertainment market. The presentation of the gadget was modest and without the pathos typical for the company, in the form of a small announcement. Consider the characteristics, user experience from the device, as well as all the obvious advantages and disadvantages of the new device for buyers and fans of the products of the "apple" company.

IPod Touch 6: Specifications overview

The new player does not lag behind other Apple devices, in particular the sixth generation iPhone, and is built on the architecture of a modern and powerful A8 processor. This allows the player to practically not yield in performance to the aforementioned smartphone. Tests and diagnostics show that thanks to the 64-bit processor, the performance of the device has grown as much as 8 times compared to the previous generation. To save energy in the player, you can switch between single-core and multi-core operation modes. Is this result not worthy of praise?

Let us pass to other characteristics. Graphic component is also pleasantly surprising. Its productivity has increased 10 times. It is worthwhile to clarify that these indicators are given by the device even with the cut-off frequency of the processor - from 1.4 to 1.1 GHz. At this step, the developers went because of forced energy savings. After all, iPod Touch 6 is, first of all, a player and a multimedia player, not a high-speed smartphone. This solution allowed to increase the operating time to 40 hours with a sufficiently weak battery (1000 mAh). Also iPod Touch 6 is equipped with 1 GB of RAM and a fast coprocessor M8, which helps in the productive work of all the sensors of the player.

All diagnostic programs show a multiple increase in productivity compared to the fifth generation. This is all due to the good work of the creators and the optimization of iPod Touch 6. The device's overview goes to the characteristics of the screen.

Device and camera display

The display also keeps up with the current trends and the flagship of Apple. 4-inch screen with multi-tachhem and excellent color reproduction is unlikely to disappoint its owner. Resolution remained from the previous generation - 1136x640 pixels. For this diagonal, this resolution is ideal.

The rear main camera has moved from the iPhone 6. The creators have a little refreshed the old and added new features and shooting modes. The resolution of the matrix remained unchanged - 8 Mp. But the front camera remained from the fifth generation with a resolution of 1.2 megapixels. Both functions support the ability to record video in Full-HD resolution. With the main camera you can make high-quality panoramic pictures with a resolution of up to 43 megapixels.

IPod touch 6: an overview of additional features

The device, of course, runs under the operating system iOS 8.4. Also iPod Touch 6 is equipped with Bluetooth version 4.1 and high-speed module Wi-Fi.

A pleasant bonus for the owners of the player will be a special innovation - streaming music service Apple Music. And one more good news - the case for iPod Touch 6 can safely come from the previous generation with minimal errors. However, it is better to invest in a new one. After all at such cost of a device the means for accessories look rather modestly. Smoothly go to the conclusion and prices.

Prices and total

The sixth generation is available in 4 versions with different amount of built-in memory. IPod Touch 6 16gb costs about 15 thousand rubles. For 32 and 64 Gb it is necessary to give 19 and 22 thousand accordingly. The most expensive version with 128 Gb will cost the buyer almost 30 000 rubles.

Also worth noting is the wide color gamut of the device. The device can be purchased in 6 versions: silver, gold, pink, blue, red and "gray space."

We can say that the output of iPod Touch 6 has not changed the situation in the market of multimedia players radically. Apple products still remain devices of the hi-end class, for which you will have to pay a round sum. But this waste is worth it, because for this money the buyer will receive a practically perfect and very technological device with a lot of possibilities. True connoisseurs of the company's products and music lovers will definitely be satisfied with the acquisition. The sound quality and performance of iPod Touch 6 is currently out of the competition.
