The fifth gen iPod touch is the first iPod with the 4" screen, to match the visual and technical updates of the iphone 5.

This generation brought colours to the iPod touch, launching with a new aluminum back plate, painted black, silver, pink, yellow or blue, to match the 7th Generation iPod Nano. It also added a new accessory, the iPod touch loop, and the plastic wi-fi antenna “window” was added to the back plate again. It also has updated internals and Lightning connector.

Additionally,in 2013 this model was silently launched in a version that has a black front and a silver colored aluminum back, with no back camera and no support for the iPod touch “loop,” this model is essentially the same as the subsequently introduced 16 GB iPod touch 5th Gen.

It also got refreshed with larger capacities in 2014.
