iPod Touch 6G release date and specs:improved security and Apple Watch compatibility

With much of the focus on the iPhone, iPad and now the Apple Watch, it seems that one of the Apple family members has been forgotten already. This is with reference to the iPod of course.

The features of an iPod Touch can certainly be performed by Apple devices such as the iPhone or the iPad and this is seen as the reason as to why the iPod Touch has taken a backseat.

Regardless and despite the fact that the device doesn't necessarily carry an impressive customer backing, the iPod Touch 6G could very well make its way into the scene by September or the third quarter of the year.

There is no official word yet on what the iPod Touch 6G will have to offer although there have been already a lot of rumors being said on its potential features.

Among them include the iPod Touch 6G coming in two variants, a 4.7-inch and 5.7-inch version. Aside from that, the iPod Touch 6G could come with an improved security measure in the Touch ID fingerprint sensor and possibly an improve camera (8MP). Also, there are some speculations that the iPod Touch 6G could be water-resistant as well.

If it does come out in September, it is expected to run on the latest Apple 8.1.3 OS and will most likely be compatible with the Apple Watch. The reason behind this is by the time the iPod Touch 6G comes out, the Apple Watch is perceived to be already in the market.

Despite the meager hype on the iPod Touch 6G, there are some folks expected to be interested in it. But the thing is, all these features and release date are speculations for now.

All this may suffice for now until Apple formally makes an announcement on the iPod Touch 6G.
