The iPod Touch (stylized and marketed as iPod touch) is a brand of iOS-based multi-purpose mobile device designed and marketed by Apple Inc. with a touchscreen-controlled user interface. The iPod Touch is the largest of the iPod family. It connects to the Internet only through Wi-Fi and does not use cellular network data, thus it is not a smartphone. Similarly to an iPhone, it can be used as a music player, digital camera, web browser, note-logger, and handheld gaming device.[7] As of May 2013, 100 million iPod Touch units had been sold since 2007.[2]
iPod Touch models are sold by storage space and color, with all models of the same generation typically offering otherwise identical features, processors, performance, and available operating system upgrades. An exception was the fifth generation, in which the low-end (16 GB (14.9 GiB[8]))[9] model was initially sold without a rear-facing camera.[10] The current iPod Touch is the seventh-generation model, released on May 28, 2019.
The iPod Touch is currently the only product in Apple’s iPod product line, following the discontinuation of the iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle on July 27, 2017. Following the discontinuation, Apple revised the storage and pricing for the iPod Touch with 32 and 128 GB (29.8 and 119.2 GiB) of storage.
The iPod Touch runs Apple’s Unix-based iOS operating system (called ‘iPhone OS’ until 2010) and includes bundled software to browse the Internet, view maps, send and receive email, view media, and work with office documents, presentations, and spreadsheets. Users type on a virtual keyboard displayed on the screen. Apple operates an online store, allowing users to buy and directly download music, videos and third-party software. From launch, the iPod Touch was described by journalists as an ‘iPhone without the phone’,[12] and each iPod Touch model to date has been introduced with the same release number of iOS as the contemporary iPhone model.
