New Delhi: Last year, when Apple had introduced the fifth-genration iPod touch, it was only available in two variants - 32GB and 64 GB. But now the company has outed the 16GB model at a price of $229. Quite like its brethren, the 16GB model has a 4-inch Retina display, but Apple has omitted the rear-facing camera and the lanyard loop. The 32GB and 64GB models, on the other hand, have a 5 megapixel iSight camera with 1080p HD video recording.
But like other 5th generation variants, the 16GB model has a dual-core A5 processor and a front-facing FaceTime HD camera. Apple has listed the new 16GB iPod touch on its online store. Available in black and silver, the device is available to order for $229. The company says, it will ship within 24 hours.
With the launch of the fifth-gen 16GB model, Apple seems to have discontinued the 16GB and 32GB variants of the 4th generation.
The fifth-generation iPod touch is available in India in 32GB for Rs 23,900 and 64GB for Rs 30,900. However, there is not confirmation as to when the company will bring the 16GB to the Indian markets. This is yet to be known as whether Apple has any such plans....
