I was able to get a 64-gig Touch from the Onalaska, Wi Walmart yesterday. Before I continue, I will say I like it overall. But here is a few observations-
First thing I noticed is how bad the screen picks up fingerprints. I assume there is some unseen residue left behind from the sticker label you peel off of the screen. I mean, it left perfect fingerprint marks. I sorta freaked at first, but it breaks up after some handling and cleans easy.
When you press the power button for the first time, it still has the old iTunes logo on the screen that tells you must hook it up to sync.
Im not getting this whole "thin" thing Apple has with this device. You can practically see the whole backside of the sync connector when hooked to the Touch.
You actually get 59-gigs of memory.
If you owned previous versions of the Touch, you will quickly notice the difference in the Retina Display. Though its only been 24 hours since I owned it, my 3rd gen 32-gig Touch is slightly brighter than the 4th gen. Only slightly. But the Retina Display makes up for that.
The speaker on the 4th-gen, IMO, is ALOT better than the one found in the last two Touches. Not only is it slightly louder, it has decent clarity for such a small speaker. Background sounds stand out more, like in apps like Epic Citadel.
I synced about 30-gigs of data, and it got pretty hot. In the short time I used it, it tends to get a little warm with certain apps running.
Video cam is nice, photo quality is everything you have been hearing about it.
The home button and volume buttons are sort of difficult to press with one hand.
And finally, my Touch suffers from light leakage from the corner where the volume buttons are and down in the opposite corner. Yeah I can live with it, a case might cover it up, but it is noticeable, even in a lit room when you put your hand over it.
My concern is if it continues to get bigger, I'll have to swap it out when Wal-Mart starts to stock up on them.
