I want to buy a 4th Generation 8GB iPod touch.

WantToBeSE

Hey guys,

I am buying my son an iPod touch for xmas and was wondering if you could give me any advice/input on where to buy one from, if ipods are any good, what to buy with it (accessories, leads, earphones) etc?

Also, the cheapest i have seen it from, is Amazon for £141, and then Argos for £149.99.

Have a look here http://www.studentcomputers.co.uk/Products/category/iPod+Touch. I haven't used them but lots of people on this site have.

you have to use a voucher code (HUKD link), the 4th gen iPod touch is the previous version, the 5th gen is coming out in a couple of weeks time, but the cheapest 5th gen will be £249, and a 16GB 4th gen will continue to be sold for £169 for the next year, meaning the 8GB version will continue to get updates for a few more years to come (which is good)

8GB is enough for a selection of music and some games, but it may fill up quickly if you put video and download big apps on it, but I don't know if that would happen with him being only young.

I've just bought my second ipod touch from Student Computers. Daughter had hers for less than a year before losing hers on the school bus. Now she's getting another for her birthday. Don't feel quite so bad about her losing it as we didn't buy new.

I’d try eBay. I know someone who got a new 32GB one for agood price, however that was from a London seller one week after the London riots
