I was 17 when the original iPod touch came out, and the iPhone was nowhere near attainable for me. Things really got good the next year when the App Store launched.

Meanwhile, the iPod touch ran the same operating system as the iPhone, featured a 3.5-inch touch screen, and included wifi for Safari, YouTube, and something called the iTunes® Wi-Fi Music Store. The iPod lineup that year also included a new iPod classic and an iPod nano that played video on a two-inch display. For context, Apple was celebrating 100 million iPods sold and 1 million iPhones sold during the same week that the iPod touch debuted. It was also the most advanced digital music player by leaps and bounds at a time when the iPod and iTunes were still revolutionizing the music experience. The first-gen iPod touch, however, was $299 for 8GB (compared to $599 with a two-year contract for the iPhone) and disconnected from the complexity of carriers. The iPhone was brand new, priced at $499 and up with a two-year contract, and limited to select carriers globally. The iPod touch was legendary when it premiered in September 2007. Who knows! Not me, but it’s fun to think about. That’s purely my hunch, however, and an 8th-gen iPod touch with a processor upgrade and not much else is totally possible! Maybe Apple would even bring its new midnight and starlight colors to the iPod touch. I would sooner bet that the iPod touch 7 languishes until it loses support for the newest iOS version than wager that a new iPod touch is coming.

All signs point to the iPod touch maintaining its status as a product that remains in Apple’s lineup, but there are no rumors of an iPod touch 8 ever existing. That’s enough time for a newborn baby to learn to walk and communicate, so that must mean the iPod touch 8 is coming this year, right?Ībsolutely not. This upcoming May will mark three years since Apple released the 7th generation iPod touch.
