The more I think about this the more I conclude that Apple is planning something huge for an upgraded ipod platform.
Last year the MacBook Pro added:
”
You can’t do any of this with the current discontinued ipod line up because it would require a decent built in DAC that would at least sample up 96khz and would murder the iPod’s battery fast, my take on this is that Apple will probably release do this on the iphone or iPad Pro hopefully in the Fall Apple events for both.
Funnily enough the first iPods before the nano’s had a nice built in DAC then it went downhill from there.
I’m just thinking outloud but apple wouldn’t invest into this if they did not have a bigger picture in mind to this and like I mentioned the iPod touch 7th gen is already limited, the Best way would be to sell current stock and hoping they release upgraded Hardware.
I want Distraction free listening so bad that I scorched earth on my stuff to find my ipod classic, ipod sold sell recently because it was Cheaper than buying iphones on monthly payments and corporations used them as cheaper than ipad inventory devices, I see them in the wild a lot in stores, I do not think apple would let go of this to say the least.
Anyways I always have low expectations when seeing the apple keynotes but seeing the one from last year about the MacBook Pro mention that and then this one gave me some hope.
I just think it’s funny how Apple started the trend to get rid of the 3.5mm and all of a sudden are slowly bringing it back in a big way.
