I saw the following in top tech tidbits
New iPod Touch Released
The 7th generation Touch has a newer processor and more memory, and will be
able to receive iOS updates for some time:

For comparison, the iPod touch 6th generation has the A8 chip, the new touch
has the A10 chip. The iPhone SE has the A9 chip; so the new Touch can do all
the Augmented Reality visual stuff, etc.
It would appear to still have a home button, 3.5 MM earphone Jack, etc.
Just out of curiosity, I checked for refurbished iPod Touch 6th generation
touches and a 128 GB model is $215 while a new Touch with the same memory is
$299.
I guess it depends on what one will be doing with it whether it would be worth
it.

Sieghard or anyone else: Can someone give me a quick run-down of what makes
the new ipod touch different from the ipod touch 6? Sieghard, I agree with you.
I wouldn't expect apple to put their best chip in an ipod touch. Like you said,
people are going to complain either way.

Subject: RE: New iPod touch announced
Going from an iPod Touch 5th Gen to this newly announced model would be a
huge difference, the 5th generation iPod touch has an A5 chip which is even a
step down from the iPhone 5 which had an A6 chip which means it was far from
supporting 64 Bit.
I know people complain why Apple didn't put their latest A12 chip into the
iPod Touch, but the same people would probably complain if Apple did and it
would cost $50 or $80 more, also, I have a feeling that for what most people
use an iPod Touch for simply does not require such a powerful processor.

You will notice a definite difference from the five. Enjoy! I have a 6th gen,
which has a speed difference from my fifth.

You could possibly use it for beta testing if you're into that. Or a
streaming device. Yeah I don't know why they did the A7 instead of the A11 or
A12.
They should at least have put in the A11 chip.

I thought I would pose this question, since Apple just announced the
update of the iPod touch today. It will have the a10 processor, the same one
that is in an iPhone 7 or 7+. That makes it two years old going on three, just
like my iPhone 7 Plus. No other significant changes that I am aware of, except
the space. The cheapest one has 32 GB for $200, 128 for 300, and 256 for 400.
Earlier this year, they released the iPad mini five, with the A 12 chip. That
is the current chip. I can’t remember the prices for iPad mini, but my gut
reaction when I saw this, it was that Apple was cheeping out. They should have
given us at least the A 11 if not the 12th. I am really disappointed. I was
looking forward to perhaps purchasing an iPod touch, but now that I see that it
has the same processor as my iPhone 7 Plus, forget it.
