Nearly three years after its original debut, Apple today introduced what it calls the best iPod Touch yet - essentially an iPhone without cellular capabilities - and also unveiled a new lineup of colors for all iPod models. The new iPod touch features a new 8 megapixel iSight camera, an improved FaceTime HD camera for even better selfies, the Apple-designed A8 chip with 10 times faster graphics performance and even better fitness tracking with the M8 motion coprocessor. Of course, the device supports the newly launched Apple Music service.

iPod touch has a 4-inch Retina display, three times faster Wi-Fi and access to the App Store, available in 155 countries. It also comes with iOS 8 and a collection of built-in apps. Send unlimited voice and video text messages through iMessage over Wi-Fi, make edits to your photos with the Photos app and keep track of your fitness and wellness with the Health app. With Family Sharing, up to six family members can share purchases from iTunes, iBooks and the App Store, along with photos and calendars. Parents can also create Apple IDs for children which includes Ask to Buy where parental permission is required for all purchases.

The new iPod touch starts at $199 (US) for the 16GB model, $249 (US) for 32GB and $299 (US) for 64GB, and the entire iPod family in its five new colors is available starting today through the Apple Online Store, Apple’s retail stores and select Apple Authorized Resellers. For the first time, iPod touch is available in a 128GB model for $399 (US), along with the (PRODUCT)RED lineup.
