Apple surprised many on Wednesday with an out-of-left field announcement.
The Cupertino, California-based tech giant unveiled what it calls “the best iPod touch yet.”
The device in question comes with a new lineup of colors for all iPod models, including space gray, silver, gold, pink and blue.
The ultra-portable iPod touch features a new 8 megapixel iSight camera for beautiful photos, an improved FaceTime HD camera for even better selfies, the Apple-designed A8 chip with 10 times faster graphics performance for a more immersive gaming experience, and even better fitness tracking with the M8 motion coprocessor.
“iPod touch gives customers around the world access to Apple Music, the App Store and iOS, the world’s most advanced mobile operating system, starting at just $199,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s vice president of iPhone, iPod and iOS Product Marketing. “With big advancements like the A8 chip and the 8 megapixel iSight camera, customers can experience next-level gameplay, take even more beautiful photos and enjoy their favorite music, TV shows and movies.”
The new iPod touch is available for purchase from Apple now.
