Night mode is an automatic setting which takes advantage of the new wide-angle camera that's in the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro models. It's equipped with a larger sensor that is able to let in more light, allowing for brighter photos when the light is low.

Updated iPod Touch to Carry 1136x640 Display, 32-Nanometer A5 Chip?
In addition to his disclosure that the updated iPhone and iPod touch are likely to support a panorama photo mode, developer Will Strafach has also posted several Tweets sharing hardware details on the updated iPod touch.
According to Strafach, the updated iPod touch will carry a taller 1136x640 display, the same dimensions said to be coming to the iPhone 5 and in line with leaked photos from May said to show the iPod touch's taller front panel. Strafach also says that the new iPod touch carries an internal code name of N78AP.

In a separate Tweet, Strafach says that the new iPod touch will use the S5L8942X application processor, which corresponds to the die-shrunk 32-nanometer A5 system-on-a-chip introduced in the revised iPad 2 and third-generation Apple TV earlier this year. The iPhone 5 is expected to carry a more powerful chip.

Apple has been rumored to be splitting its iPod touch line, perhaps keeping a current A4-based model with 960x640 display at the low end in order to achieve the lowest entry-level pricing possible while bringing the upgraded hardware to higher-end models.
9to5Mac has also posted a few additional details on Apple's iPod plans, noting that the new iPod nano carries a code name of N31 while the updated iPod shuffle appears to be a very minor revision with tweaked code name of N12B.

You're much worried about bragging that you own the latest gadget to others than using it?

Maybe we've only been seeing the new iPod Touch in the leaks this whole time and Tim will unveil a completely different iPhone 5????????????
*Probably not, but it is fun to dream. This is just a joke. Do not quote it to tell me how stupid that I am due to the leaks obviously showing what the iPhone 5 will be. I agree with you. We are friends. Godspeed.

Hmm...my iPhone 4S display seems better than my 4th Gen iPod touch display.
Its because its IPS not because it has more pixels.

The A5X is the same as the A5. Only difference is the A5X has a better GPU to drive the more pixels on the iPad screen.
That's not the only difference. The A5X has a different interconnect scheme to give enough bandwidth to feed the GPU and the massive display on the retina iPad.
