Yes, indeed, the screen resoultion are totally different.

Try to compare the retina display with the older generation then you will notice the difference.

I use matte but change to clear type afterwards.

Matte SP really lowered down the retina display quality.

I do not mind to clean my screen everyday to maintain the retina display laugh.gif

My concern was monthly bill, because currently my prepaid usage is less than RM 30 per month. I know having an iPhone would make it impossible for me to maintain the same kind of usage. Hence I chose iPod.

Other thing I notice is the battery usage. I have to charge the iPod everyday with the usual usage (songs, videos, twitter, occasional games), I imagine iPhone would need the same amount of charging or more which would be inconvenient for me because my current phone usually only need charging once every 3-4 days.

if u use iphone with the same usage of ur ipod, of course iphone battery conwumption will be higher and u need to charge everyday
if let say u use iphone juz like ur phone now, iphone battery ll be much more long lasting
and btw, iphone u need to of all the cellular data and 3g option to prevent draining money
so far im using prepaid on an iphone, not a big problem with credit issue
but soon u ll purchase data plan coz its much more convenient

ah.. but what is the use of iPhone if I can't use it to the maximum? If for only calling and texting I'd be better off with my current phone. biggrin.gif

I just bought ipod touch 4g.

My advice is take ipod , not iphone. The maxis package is too expensive with 24month contract. The digi package ....well I can't get 3G outside town area.

Unless you got a lot of money to buy iphone without any package contract from operators.

I hv ipod 4th gen. It got evrything except telephony. Here my opinion to choose between iphone or ipod. Answer this question: what purpose u want the iDevice for? If u thinking about games, internet, organizer, music, then just get an ipod. But if u need a phone, buy iphone ONLY if it meet yr budget. Dun get burdened with expensive phone, coz cheaper phone still can do the same thing: call and sms. thumbup.gif furthermore, if evrything squeze into 1 device, the battery cant last to meet all yr need. If yr ipod died, it wont gv u much trouble. But if yr phone died while u r out, u lost 1 of yr basic needs in life. whistling.gif in term of battery life, ipod is much batter. Last i charged my ipod was yesterday noon. Then i listen to music all long in the afternoon, then stop for a while before i start to play games at night for couple hours. Play games for a while again this morning, nvr turn off if not using, now the bat is still half full! it really impressed me. notworthy.gif thumbup.gif

Conclusion, it's wise to carry 2 devices..1 phone and 1 ipod. brows.gif

In case need to online at non-wifi area... Just use ur phone to create wifi hotspot and ipod to browse internet, like that can extend battery life for ur phone. smile.gif

I just wrote an article about iTouch iPhone and iPad yesterday for my Blog called Ringgit Wise Fool. Came to the conclusion, better not to get iPhone instead use a normal phone + iTouch and it want to surf while on the go, get a MiFi. Moreover, more and more fast food restaurants and kopitiam now offering free wifi.

The thing I learn from my years of gila handphones is - today's model becomes obsolete tomorrow. With a mifi, any of your gadget can be connectted to Broadband as long as it has wifi capabilities.

To read more about MiFi - click below link to my Blog
