  1. What do you think about the new iPod touch 7? Is an A10 Fusion + 2GB of RAM and 256GB of storage enough of an upgrade?

    • Erdadler You can sometimes find the 128gb on clearance for $300, the same price as the 128gb iPod. They both have the same screen size, but I could use the SE as a phone.
      I don’t think the processor will make much of a difference on a 4 inch screen. I have the XS Max, but I’ve considered getting the SE as a backup phone. I’m not sure what I would do with an iPod.

    • +William Walmsley 
      The SE Has The 5S Screen And The Xr Has The 6S Screen So You Shouldn’t Expect Much From The Apple Budget Devices.

    • +Augusto Galindo the device is ok especially for kids my point was that its toooo expensive like u could buy a great actual phone for yourself at that price range otherwise i agree with u

    • unknown 5253 yeah but pixel 3a has only 64 gigs of storage and ipod would have 256, 5 times better

    • Leko , family link can be easily fooled by using a forbidden app on parallel space and family link can’t protect you on a parallel space. I first didn’t trust but after testing I trust it is easy to fool family link . Setting up family link is very tedious.

    • unknown 5253 as the review says, there is a target market , even I would rather buy an iPhone SE or an old iPad, but if you have a good income and your ecosystem is based on Apple you probably won’t buy a Pixel for your children or other purposes you have, especially if you don’t trust Android haha
      Edit: I forgot to mention that Apple also does it because of recycling purposes, there are many components from old phones that were not used and they can’t just get rid of it, so it’s better to create a minor device. That’s called economy of scope and is environmentally friendly

  2. if apple wanted to keep the iPod alive, i’d rather they just make something that strictly does music.

  3. I was so excited to see this device, but I’m legit so disappointed literally nothing has changed

  4. wow apple really missed the boat with this one.
    like my 6.

  5. Clearly an overstock and unsold hardware units years ago that they have to dispose this 2019
