How Much Does an iPod touch Cost?

There are only three models of the iPod touch 7th Generation, the latest iteration of the multimedia-centric MP3 player that launched in 2007. Here’s a breakdown of the costs.

According to Apple.com, prices and configurations are current as of July 2021.

Three Models, Three Prices

The only difference between the three iPod touch devices from the seventh generation is storage space. The following is Apple’s pricing:

Model Price
32 GB iPod Touch US$199
128 GB iPod Touch $299
256 GB iPod Touch $399

The iPod touch series received its first upgrade since 2015 with this Seventh Generation device. More storage, App Store support, and other critical, modern features are included in the current edition, as well as a new A10 Fusion processor that gives the same smooth, quick performance and crisp display as the iPhone.

Does the iPod touch Ever Go On Sale?

Unfortunately, the answer is no: the iPod touch is never available for purchase.

Apple maintains tight control over its product pricing, and high demand keeps prices high. Annual Christmas and back-to-school bargains, as well as particular retailer promos, are available, although these sales are unlikely to save you more than $20.

Consider a Sixth Generation iPod Touch if you’re looking for a decent deal on an iPod Touch. Although Apple no longer produces it, you should be able to find a number of old devices online.

You should acquire the highest-memory model you can afford, just like you do with tablets and phones. The iOS with its built-in apps consume 8-11 GB, accounting for up to 35% of the 32 GB iPod touch’s storage space. The remaining space will be swiftly used by the songs, apps, games, photographs, and videos you upload. Because you can’t increase the memory, opting for a higher-capacity model will give you a gadget that you’ll be able to use for longer before being tempted to upgrade again.

Other Costs When Buying an iPod touch

The iPod touch’s price isn’t the only thing to factor into your budget. Remember to include in sales tax (if it applies in your area). In addition, you’ll almost certainly purchase a few iPod touch accessories, such as:

  • A case (expect to spend $20-$40)
  • AppleCare extended warrantyΒ ($59)
  • A second charging cable to bring to work or when traveling ($19)
  • A power adapter for a wall socket ($19)
  • Airpods ($159+) or otherΒ high-end headphones
  • Screen protectors.
