1. It's OK because it doesn't affect me.
2. I'm happy with old screen technology. Hell, even my TV is B&W.
3. My games do lag, but I like laggy games, makes them feel more 'human'.
4. See #1
5. Even though the chrome can scratch just by breathing it, it's your fault.
6. I have big flapping hands too.

;)
I really like Number 3. Good job "translating" my opinions :D
 
A comparative study:

4G
Processor- Apple A4 (as seen in iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4)
The 3GS did not have an A4.

Highest supported iOS version (theoretical)- iOS 6 (2012)
The 4th-gen Touch will absolutely qualify for at least iOS 7 because it is a device that is still being manufactured and sold. Apple does not chop off software support before they EOL a certain model; see the iPhone 3GS.

5G
iPhone similar to- iPhone 4S (2011)
That's a hard one. I can see why you compare it to the 4S: because of the CPU. But it also has the same tall screen as the iPhone 5, which is definitely a differentiating factor. I'd have to call it a hybrid between the 4S and the 5.

Why I like the 5th gen more than the 4th gen:
  • It has a camera that's not total ass.
  • It has a screen that's not total ass.
  • It has a processor that's not total ass.
  • It has twice as much RAM and therefore not total ass.
  • It has a non-polished back that won't get scratched so easily and look like total ass.
  • I have somewhat large hands, so the fourth gen's size is too small and thus total ass.

I guess one could conclude it's all about dat ass for you.

I signed in just to give this a thumbs up.
 
I am glad I replaced my 4G with the 5G touch as the sound is simply better. It also has more volume as I was having to run my 4G at full volume when the 5G is a couple of clicks below. Do not like that it is thinner but the screen is far superior.

The person who got my 4G is a very happy camper!
 
Camera on 4G vs 5G

I saw a comparison of the photos that the 4G and 5G take. Surprisingly enough, the 4G photos looked better.
 
I still use my 4th generation iPod Touch. It sits on my bedside table on the dock. It's primary function is an alarm clock, but i have the yahoo weather app on 24/7.

I will continue to use it until it decides to power off for good.
