iPhone 4 vs iPod Touch 4 Comparison Videos


Letemsvetemapplem.eu has posted a series of videos providing some direct comparisons between the iPhone 4 and 4th generation iPod Touch. The first one is a speed boot test between the iPad, iPhone 4, iPod Touch and iPhone 3GS. We're not sure if it shows very much, though the iPad booted the fastest of the bunch.

More interesting is the embedded (above) video showing the differences in the display angles between the iPhone 4 and the 4th generation iPod Touch. While the new iPod Touch does contain a retina display, it is not the same high quality display found in the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4 uses an IPS display which offers better viewing angles.

The site also provides a side-by-side comparison of the iPhone 4 and iPod touch taking video:

iPod Touch looks to shoot a much better video than the iPhone 4, IMO.

If you mean the darker hues and saturation, then that's your personal preference.

The iPhone 4 shoots are more accurate video of the actual light level.

A lot more jiggle in the iP4 video.

Looks like a TN screen on the Touch.

Yeah, but have you seen how shaky it is on the iPhone 4?
Since it was released, I really hated the way the videos seems to be shaking.
I'm not asking for a steadicam, but the result is pretty lame if you'd ask me.
Of course, many people will say that this camera rocks and all, but you'll see, in a few years (if not next year) when this will be fixed and that everyone will want the new "non-shaking camera" on the new iPhone.

The iPod's camera has a wider field of view (which is generally a good thing for this sort of device) and much better contrast. The iPhone's video looks a bit washed out.

I'd really like to see a low-light comparison.

I did say MY OPINION, just like your perception of the videos are YOUR OPINION. Nobody's right or wrong buddy. :p

lets all calm down and just shoot our video and not get our panties in a wad.

More MP is not better for video, since you have to do binning or pixel skipping. For example, the RED one camera, that can do 4K video, only has a ~10 MP sensor.
