New iPod Touch

The new iPod Touch has been announced which included the FaceTime video calling facility (over wi-fi) which has previously only been available on the iPhone.

The new high-resolution (960x640) screen features the new Retina display, which makes the screen look amazing. That's because the Retina display's pixel density is so high, your eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which means images in games, films and photos leap off the screen. Text in books, web pages and email is crisp at any size.

The new Pod Touch captures video with two built-in cameras. It shoots amazing HD video from the back camera. And when you’ve finished shooting, you can edit and share your movie in just a few taps.

The iPod Touch is the most popular portable game player in the world. And with tens of thousands of games and other applications in almost every category just a tap away at the App Store, the iPod Touch has more games than any other platform.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


New iPod nano

The new iPod nano has been completely redesigned with Multi-Touch - the same technology that makes the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch so amazing. And it's also half the size.

Show off your album art, photos and the colour-coordinated wallpaper on the 1.5-inch colour display with 240x240-pixel resolution.

The new built-in clip makes it easy to move to the music. Just clip the iPod nano to your sleeve, jacket or bag.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


iPod Shuffle

The iPod shuffle is incredibly small, but it comes with 2GB of memory - enough for hundreds songs.

The iPod shuffle is now crafted from a single piece of aluminium and polished to a beautiful shine, so the new iPod shuffle feels solid, sleek and durable. And the colour palette makes it the perfect fashion accessory. Choose gleaming silver, blue, green, orange or pink.

It also includes the new VoiceOver feature: Say you're listening to a song and want to know the title or the artist. With the press of a button, VoiceOver tells you as the music dips down. And when your battery needs charging, VoiceOver tells you that, too.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


iPod Classic

With 160GB of storage, iPod classic gives your music and video room to move. The new iPod classic lets you enjoy up to 40,000 songs or up to 200 hours of video wherever you go.

Now with Cover Flow. Browse through your music and video collection by flipping through album art. Select an album to turn it over and see the track list.

Beautiful, durable, and sleeker than ever, the iPod classic now features an anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel enclosure with rounded edges.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


iPad

Imagine being able to page through websites, write an email, flick through photos, or watch a film. All on a big, beautiful, multi-touch screen.

The iPad is the best way to experience the web. View whole web pages in portrait or landscape on the large Multi-Touch screen with vibrant colour and sharp text at a size that's actually readable. When you rotate the iPad to landscape, the page you’re viewing rotates too, then expands to fit the display.

You'll find thousands of apps on the App Store specifically designed for the iPad. And the iPad can run almost all the 200,000 apps for the iPhone and the iPod touch.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPad Store.

 


iPhone

The new iPhone is less than 10mm thick, and has a stainless steel case. It has a front-facing video camera which allows video calls.

The new "Retina" display is the sharpest, most vibrant, highest-resolution phone screen ever, with four times the pixel count of previous iPhone models. In fact, the pixel density is so high that the human eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which makes text amazingly crisp and images stunningly sharp.

It is now possible to shoot high-definition movies. Capture impressive video even in low-light settings, thanks to the advanced backside illumination sensor and built-in LED light. Then edit and create your own mini-masterpiece right on iPhone using the new iMovie app.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPhone Store.

A new way to nano
