yep me too, it was such a great screen

It really was.

It changes what ? The DPi ? Ppi? 360p to 480i?

@@pepeshadilay tn to ips lol

@@pepeshadilayit’s at the right distance so that using it phone normally (~30 cm away from the screen) makes it so pixels are indistinguishable

@@pepeshadilayit went from a 480x320 resolution at 163ppi to 960x640 at 326ppi. literally DOUBLED resolution. now, because 1 old pixel was filled in with 4 entire pixels the display resolution was so much higher they called it the “Retina display” because the naked eye wouldn’t notice the pixels at viewing distance

I had an iPod touch 4 as well. Really wished I had an iPhone 4 at the time but still cool and enjoyed it a lot. Also probably best I didn’t given I was maybe 6 or 7 at the time

@@pushatsinfraredi loved the iPod 4 I remember me and my friends would make skit videos so much fun

@@Certifiedcrackuser similar memories to me! We used to use it to try and splice together our horrendous attempts at playing football

we lived the same childhood! I had a 4th gen iPod that i loved dearly, and then got a blue iPhone 5C for one of my birthdays. i miss that phone, although when i upgraded the screen was close to popping out 🤣

Woah same first iOs Device was ipod touch 2nd Gen which was a gift when I graduated college. Then it was stolen. Got the iphone 5s years after I started working. Then the XS then 12 pro and waiting for my 15 pro now. Hehe

2022? lol

@@saucyx4yeah last year Apple sold the iPods again

@@nateb3454 I didn’t know. These died in my head in like 2012

The 5th gen I am 100% sure he used coolbooter. The 1st and 2nd gen can easily be downgraded to any version of iOS by using an old windows xp/vista/7 paired with an old version of itunes because back then signing and unsigning ios wasn’t a thing just yet. About the third gen you can only downgrade it to 4.1 using the method described above for anything else you will need blobs

The no iSight 16GB model is more common than you may be led on to believe. Since it seems almost every older iPod touch he shows with the metallic back has its engraving sanded off, should show he went the cheap route

I had a sixth gen and always wanted the fifth gen without the camera just because it looked so different. No actual reason haha

I have the 5th gen without the camera I use it mostly for music in my car and some you tube watching

The cameraless one is not actually all that rare, and the 5th gen and older are actually relatively easy to downgrade.

Yess bro I remember when i was in middle school and the 4th gen was the newest best thing, all those lite apps we got

Hey! i have a 4th generation and you mentioned replacing the battery… Was it DIY or did you take it to a shop? i want to use mine but i think the battery gave out. And i am curious if you did do it diy; if it was easy?

@@alhernann I did it myself. It depends on your skill level. For me it was more annoying than hard. You will need a heat gun or a hair dryer though. I'd recommend watching KZfaq videos on it to see if it's something you feel comfortable taking on.

They kind of had to kill the IPod Touch :/ It’s a legendary device in its status, but in its use it’s a niche. My younger siblings wouldn’t stay too interested in a smaller screen like that, since they’re more accustomed to an iPad or a phone with a bigger screen. And if I were to use it nowadays it would probably be for jogging outside since it’s so much lighter in the pocket than having a 12 Pro Max per se, that’s also considering that I downloaded what I wanted to listen to wether it be music or a podcast. So yeah, it’s just so niche that it doesn’t make sense to have, unless for nostalgia or as a collector.

@@MikeCobweb But apple is gonna lose money. Plus iphones above the 12 are useless and are to expensive

@@MikeCobweb I personally bought a iPod touch 5 on iOS 7 purely so I could have a dedicated device to play older now delisted titles on considering the shift to 64-bit. I have a 5c also on iOS 7 but I like how the iPod touch 5 is able to retain that aesthetic while feeling more premium.

Listen, i know a lot of people are nostalgic for the ipod touch, but right after the ipod touch was discontinued i talked about it with an apple store employee and they said they hadn't even managed to sell one in years. It was more expensive that a cheap Android phone while having a smaller display, and let's be honest even if you're buying it for a kid, the 1000mah battery will be very limiting compared to the 4000-5000mah batteries on cheap phones (which cost half as much). The ipod touch needed to either significantly evolve or die, and sadly there wasn't really a place for it in apple's lineup

Yes I understand! But t started not getting that popular! So if they just kept making new ones it would somehow get boring and they do have a chance of getting bankrupt! They do have a chance too rise up with an iPod touch or iPod but it could take awhile and by the time they get there, they might be bankrupt! And people would move to android! It’s a dangerous game! Especially for more than $1 million company! It’s basically just juggle! Have an amazing day! ❤❤❤❤

I used to have a six gen but the battery went out and I just decided to buy the seventh gen and I gave my six to a friend

@@naturedetectiveminecraft6362 why did you give something to a friend that is no longer usable xD

I’m presently using an old iPhone 5s (no SIM) exclusively as an iPod in the car. It appears to have a better DAC than the iPhone SE 1st generation which I’ve also retained exclusively as a makeshift iPod for in car audio jukebox usage.

I’m watching on IPod 7 too

Watching on iPod touch 6th gen

يابابا

You probably mean the iPod touch 5th gen. I have the 6th gen, bought it back brand new in 2015.

@@stevetici2668 oh yes you’re right! Ik knew it was one of the two

I bought my 6th gen in 2016 while I was still in Middle School and can attest everyone thought mine was an iPhone 5 unless I put it in a case then they thought it was an iPhone 4 cause it looked so much smaller in the case I had for it.

I had a 5th gen brand new in 2015 as I wasn’t allowed a smartphone until I was 18 a couple years later. Everyone I knew had iPhones so I put it in an iPhone 5 case with a piece of folded paper in the back and it was indistinguishable from an iPhone 5. I even stuck a black piece of paper to the home button that looked like a touch Id sensor.

So many good memories with WinterBoard. Thank you for watching, I appreciate the support! Hope you’re enjoying your 14 Pro Max.

bro that shit was straight up the oven

My god, this was written 2 days before iPods as a whole were written off forever. that's quite a crazy thing to think about.

@@HammMann Written Feb 2, 2023 Written 2 days before? Now that’s crazy indeed

What, it can? How do you know and do it?

@@HammMannit’s like the iPod is *the* definition of “hero-to-zero”. It started off with smooth sailing, but it didn’t take long before it hit a sandbar and was swept into the Niagara Falls of obscurity, where it may forever remain. It’s quite sad that it only took slightly over 20 years to go from what seemed unstoppable, to what seems unrevivable. It’s like it can’t be resuscitated anymore, it’s just completely dead. I would wager that the iPod touch will continue to be very popular for old iOS and jailbreaking for the foreseeable future. The iPod touch is like the best friend of the jailbreaking community. It’s like it was made to be jailbroken, it’s almost not even funny. The iPod was an absolute icon in jailbreaking and just the tech industry in general. But we don’t think that way now. Just 10 years ago, the first generation iPad Air was launched, with its brand new design with the brand new modern design of iOS 7. We thought that was *so cool.* We still used iPods, back when the nano and shuffle were still being manufactured and released. Here we are, 10 years after the fact, and the iPod is completely dead and the iPad Air has been declared obsolete, along with the Thunderbolt Display, meaning Apple stopped selling them over 7 years ago, in 2016, and they are no longer eligible for repairs, e.g. screen/battery replacement, broken physical buttons, like the home button. You can likely still repair these items elsewhere, but not at an Apple Store. It’s honestly amazing to just go back 10 years ago, back when we thought iOS 7 was cool, and the iPhone 4 got it, and compare what was top-of-the-line a decade ago to the trendiest of trendy today. We advanced so much in such a small timeframe, like in the early days of iPhone, where each year saw a significant upgrade over the last one, consecutively, year over year, consistently, without fail. But now, over 16 years later, we don’t really get all that excited over a new iPhone. Why? Because we expect it at this point. We know it’s gonna come out, and we sometimes can even accurately predict when, like, down to the day of launch. We have seriously made significant progress, and we’ll see where this all-new wallet-disintegrating piece of technology called the Vision Pro will take us in the next 10 years. In 2033, we’ll be looking at 2023 like we do 2011 now. I call it wallet-disintegrating because one, just one, not like 5 of them, costs $3,500. The iPhone 89 pro max plus air pro mini pro max will probably cost twice as much when that launches in the year 2096/2097.

That would be the fifth gen. Infortunately it only supports up to IOS 9
