  9 out of 10

Short extract: Apple 's iPod touch has had a radical makeover, with the fourth-generation Touch coming in the wake of the widely praised iPhone 4 and offering some of the same features. It is Apple's best iPod to date and can be considered a triple threat: a gaming console, multimedia player and internet device.

Short extract: Apple’s iPod Touch is essentially an iPhone with all the phone functions ripped out. You would be forgiven for wondering exactly what the point of such a gadget might be, but in practice it’s an extremely impressive and handy device.

Short extract: For its latest iPod Touch, Apple has closed the gap between what its portable media player and iPhone 4 are capable of. In fact, it's pretty much fair to say that this time around the iPod touch is an iPhone without the phone capability.

Conclusion: The latest iPod touch is an improvement all-round. With its incredible screen, built-in camera and amazing user interface, this is the best media player around.
