For all the advancements we’ve seen in tech, batteries seem to still be one of the weakest points of our smartphones.Īnd yes, you can get a battery case or a power bank, but with a second device, you can actually have true multitasking since, you know, iPhones don’t have split-screen (yet). People who travel frequently or just spend lots of time away from desks and other convenient places to charge your device often face battery anxiety. Obviously, we’re getting down to the more niche use cases but as I said at the start, there aren’t many potential buyers of the iPod Touch to begin with. If Apple buys the right franchise, it can become a gold mine. It will probably take time to get things running, but we all know how adamant kids can be about the things they want to watch.

Apple has plenty of money to spend on self produced shows. The number of kids that want an iPhone from Santa is shockingĪnd again, let’s not forget the exclusive content. The main suspect is a video streaming service with included original content, but rumors also hint that there might be a game subscription service and one for news/articles as well.

And in just a couple of weeks, Apple is hosting a Special Event with all signs pointing that it will include the announcements of even more services. We know from multiple reports that Apple’s services are becoming more and more profitable each year while iPhone sales are somewhat stagnant. Times are changing, as they say, and soon there might be not one, but several reasons for such a device to exist. So why exactly would you get an iPod Touch then? There seems to be no apparent reason. With the popularity AirPods have now and Apple including headphones with a Lightning port in iPhone boxes for years, it’s very likely that a new iPod Touch will come without a 3.5mm jack as well. That’s something quite fundamental for an iPod. To get a better idea of how long ago it was released, it was before Apple decided to remove the headphone jack.
