Should I get the 8gb or 32gb iTouch? 10 POINTS BEST ANSWER!!?

Question

For my birthday, I can get either an 8gb iTouch or a 32gb iTouch. If I get the 32gb my parents are going to make me pay the $100 difference. I only need 32 more dollars to buy it. I know how to get the money, but I'm having doubts. There's a $100 difference between the two iTouches, but the 32gb isn't much better than the 8gb. My brother told me it's not worth it. I'm never going to have enough apps, songs, or movies to fill up a 32gb iTouch or even an 8gb iTouch!! What do you guys think I should get? Please no rude comments! Thanks so much for all your help!! Also, could you please tell me all the differences between and 8gb and a 32gb iTouch. Thanks so much!!!

Answer 1

i would suggest an 8 gb. Itouch .Whats the point of having all that space if ur not going to use it and plus its cheaper and you dont have to pay a thing:)



And the only differences is how much space it can store

Answer 2

well when you go to sync your itouch it will have a bar on the bottom(this is with the newer version of itunes) that shows how much space you have left and how much you used. I wouldn't recommend the 32gb because that can hold a serious amount of items, so unless you listen to music 24/7 and loves games and take pictures ever second, there is no need. However, you can purchase the 16gb one that they sell at macy's yet i can't remember for how much. This will allow more space available than the 8gb. Currently, i have over 240 songs, about 87 apps, and around 300 pictures i still have plenty of space left. So the 16gb is the one to buy if you are having problems on your 8gb about how much space is left.

Answer 3

There are really no differences between the 2 but for me the 8gb is the best choice because it has just enough room without being too much...and by the way why spend money on your own birthday present? Anyway that seems to be a good choice and i have it and i love it i have 9 pages of apps, 200 songs and counting, 2 movies, 2 tv shows, over 1000 pics and lots more! And im only halfway through! It seems a waste of money to spend that much on space you won't use! Anyway hope this will help you! Good Luck and Happy Birthday!

Answer 4

I have an 8gb itouch and still havent filled half the space and i have like 5 music videos, 700 songs, and 4 or 5 pages of apps. you dont really need all the extra space, so i would just go with the 8gb.

Answer 5

Why don't you get the 16?



Anyway, I'd go w/ the 8gb definitely.

Nobody really needs 32gb.

Answer 6

I have the 32gb iPod touch (I'm on it right now) the iPods are the same, but the choice is yours; it depends on how much music and apps you want to store on the iPod.

Answer 7

Why not just get the 16gb? It does exist, you know.









The iPod Touch (trademarked, marketed and stylized as iPod touch) is a portable media player, personal digital assistant, and Wi-Fi mobile platform designed and marketed by Apple Inc. The product was launched on September 5, 2007, at an event called The Beat Goes On.[4] The iPod Touch adds the multi-touch graphical user interface to the iPod line. It is the first iPod with wireless access to the iTunes Store, and also has access to Apple's App Store, enabling content to be purchased and downloaded directly on the device. Apple Inc. has sold 20 million iPod Touch units as of September 2009.[5]



The iPod Touch is currently in its second generation (updated in 2009), which is available with 8, 16, 32, or 64 GB of flash memory. The second generation iPod Touch, featuring external volume controls, a built-in speaker, a contoured back, built-in Nike+, Bluetooth support, and the ability to connect a microphone, was unveiled on September 9, 2008, at the "Let's Rock" keynote presentation. An updated second generation iPod Touch with the new iPhone OS 3.1 was announced and subsequently released on September 9, 2009. The late 2009 version of the second generation includes faster hardware (the same microprocessors, graphics engine, and RAM as the iPhone 3GS), a slightly lower battery life, voice control, light sensor, and bundled earphones with a remote and microphone.



The iPod Touch has a slim rectangular shape with rounded edges, with a glass touchscreen display covering most of the top surface and a physical home button off the touchscreen. The display functions similarly to the multi-touch trackpad as implemented in Apple's current line of laptop computers. The touch and gesture features of the iPod Touch are based on technology originally developed by FingerWorks.[6] On February 5, 2008, a 32 GB version was added in addition to the 8 and 16 GB models. On September 9, 2009, a 64 GB version was added and the 16 GB model was removed from the line-up.





The home screen has a list of icons for the available applications. All iPod Touch models include such applications as Music, Videos, and Photos (collectively duplicating the standard functions of the iPod Classic), iTunes (providing access to the Wi-Fi Music Store), Safari, YouTube, Calendar, Contacts, Clock, Calculator, and Settings. Later models added Mail (accessing POP/IMAP/SMTP e-mail), Maps, Stocks, Notes, and Weather, which could also be added to the earlier models with the purchase of a software upgrade. The user can add direct links to Web sites, called "Web Clips", to the home screen. All iPod Touch models are equipped with Wi-Fi 802.11b/g.



On July 11, 2008, the iPhone 2.0 Software Update was released for purchase for the iPod Touch. The update allowed first generation iPod Touch devices access to the App Store to download third-party applications, in addition to a host of minor bug fixes. On June 17, 2009, the iPhone 3.0 Software Update was released for purchase for the iPod Touch. The update allowed the devices to use new apps, and unlocked the Bluetooth functionality of the second-generation iPod Touch, enabling A2DP and P2P apps, as well as file transfer to other (non Apple) devices such as bluetooth-enabled mobile phones or jailbroken iPods using software such as iBlueNova.



Comparisons to the iPhone and model comparisons

Further information: iPhone OS and iPhone OS version history

The iPod Touch and the iPhone, a smartphone by Apple, share the same hardware platform and run the same iPhone OS operating system. The iPod Touch lacks some of the iPhone's features such as access to cellular networks and a built-in camera (and microphone on older models); as a result, the iPod Touch is slimmer and lighter than the iPhone. Steve Jobs once referred to the iPod Touch as "training wheels for the iPhone".[7]



The second generation iPod Touch has an external volume switch and a built-in speaker like the iPhone. The second generation also comes with the chrome frame seen on the iPhone 3G, making the two almost identical when viewed from the front. However, there are some notable differences, as there is no speaker above the screen, no silent/ringer switch, the back is metal, and the sleep/wake button is on the other side. The second generation also supports audio input when a headphone or earphone with microphone capabilities is plugged into the audio output (headphone) jack. The iPod Touch 2.0 Software Update supports WPA2 Enterprise with 802.1X authentication.[8] The iPhone OS 3.0 update unlocked Bluetooth capability on the second generation iPod Touch, as the included Wi-Fi chip (Broadcom BCM4325) has Bluetooth support.[9][10]



Second generation iPod Touches are said to have a yellower cast/tint to the display, as compared to the iPhone or the original iPod Touch.[11] The applications processor inside the second generation iPod Touch runs slightly faster than the processor inside th
