Like a blast from the past, Apple has introduced a new, improved iPod touch with enhancements to power, capability and communication. The Apple-designed A10 Fusion chip brings improved performance in games, and for the first time on iPod, immersive augmented reality (AR) experiences.
We’re making the most affordable iOS device even better with performance that is twice as fast as before, augmented reality starting at just AED 849. The ultra-thin and lightweight design of iPod touch has always made it ideal for enjoying games, music and so much more wherever you go.
Greg Joswiak, Apple’s vice president of Product Marketing
