If I can recall is few hours with Facebook, web surfing and YouTube. I think can last less than 4 hours continuous use. If you are only using it for Spotify or Apple Music should last quite a long time since iOS standby battery life is quite good.

As a music player (which is what it essentially is), the battery life is pretty good. Once you start surfing the web, social media and playing games, then it becomes like an iPhone 5 or worse...

Okay thanks, would just buy it for the sake of the point&shoot (8MP iSight Camera) only.

I would recommend getting a mirrorless camera instead. There is no flash on the ipod touch. biggrin.gif

Maybe top up a bit and get a used one...

But definitely no point spending 780 for an iPod to use it for a camera... Better get a used Lumix LX3 or something... Ha ha ha...

The Samsung NX series can be found around that range or get a 2nd hand in GS. Way better money spent than the iPod for the camera.

I'm planning to buy an iPod touch for my son. No urgency, as it was just for a reward for him (and to get him off my iPhone for playing games). Is it worth to buy it now or wait? Any sound rumors on new version of iPod?

If you look at the guide above you can see the iPod is way overdue for a refresh, but am not certain if Apple may just kill off the line entirely as sales have been poor to say the least.
I'd recommend you hunt for a good used one since it's just for your kid.

I prefer to buy a new one instead of used one, as I had bad experiences before when I purchased second hand phones. Looks like it is better to wait.

Agreed with you that it is better to wait. No urgency. No worries, his time with the gadget will strictly be monitored and timed. Btw, he already has a bicycle smile.gif
