Unlike many of the early reviews on the 4th Generation iPod Touch, I am reviewing from an owners point of view, as I've had my new Touch for approximately 1 week. Coming from the 3rd Generation, I've got to say it's well worth the upgrade.
The video camera takes fantastic videos. Transferring the videos from the phone to the computer is a breeze, and the video looks OUTSTANDING. I compare the video picture to that of the Creative Vado HD, which I also own, and I say that the picture from the iTouch is better than that of the Vado. Both shoot video in 720p.
Many people have also complained about the camera's .7MP lens, and unless you're blowing up your pictures and printing them off, I think the picture quality if pretty good. When pictures are transferred to your computer, they look good. They don't look as good as pictures taken with my Canon DSLR T1i, but they are almost as good as my wife's iPhone 4g camera pictures. I fact, I can hardly tell the difference when 2 of the same pictures are taken and both transferred to the computer. However, it might be a little different if I had the pictures printed. The iPhone picture quality would probably be better. But just loaded on the computer, I really can't tell that much of a difference.
Retina Display is fantastic if you compare this version Touch to the previous generation. The Retina Display on the iPhone 4g does seem to be a bit better, but I'm really not complaining because I'm not going to be comparing my Touch to the iPhone on a frequent basis.
In conclusion, I think this generation iPod Touch is a WINNER and certainly worth a 5 star review given everything that it does. Sure, it would be great if 3g was added for more versatile internet connections, and a better camera would really be nice. But for what this iPod Touch has to offer, it offers it well, and certainly worthy of 5 stars.
