- I bought a brand new, sealed, 4th generation iPod touch; the first Apple product I owned myself. After almost exactly 11 years I thought now would be a great time to go back in time and relive my excitement opening up my iPod touch on iOS 4 back in the day.

I'd love to see something like "The ultimate 2010 Apple ecosystem" it might as well break my heart as the iPhone 4 was my first iPhone...
Same Bro
I still love the iPhone 4 over every other iPhone
@@pubijigistudios8473 lol I know… don’t worry, if they’re gonna scam… at least put a little more effort
Same here bro/sis!!!!
iPhone 4,ipad 1,Mac book air 2010,iPod or iPod touch
@@pubijigistudios8473 lolwut
I APPRECIATE these videos so much. As the introverted kid who didn't have many friends and spent way too much time obsessing over Apple instead of doing "normal" things kids do, these videos are triggering my notalgia-campus portion of my brain so hard. Keep the dopamine coming!
Not a bad thing
Keeps your nose clean if you ask me
I love tech
same here!
This is awesome! I got my iPod 4 for my 13th birthday in 2010. This is what locked me into the Apple ecosystem. Back then I had the “Good” iPod with the camera
The iPod touch 6th generation is even better
@@stephensnell1379 yes, and the 7th gen is even better than that! Lol
And everything that the iPhone has.
I love two iPods, the iPod Classic, truly music, and the iPod Touch, truly entertainment. I really want to see them again at a new level.
Wow, I remember this. It really brings back memories. My first memory of this thing is when a classmate brought it into school and was showing it off. I was so jealous lol
Me too!
omg, that was the first iOS device I own as well, can't believe so many years have been passed.
The iPod Touch 2nd gen was my first iOS device. Iphone was too expensive, but I also wanted a device that could handle wifi and apps - so the ipod touch was the way to go. Was quite a helpful buddy while being a student - and 32gb was a lot of internal memory (which was all used for videos and apps and no music at all haha). Ah memories :D
I had the 2nd Gen 32GB as my first iOS device also and then eventually got a 4th Gen also 32gb after it
I gotten the original iPhone when I was a kid it was my first phone.i was the only kid in school with it
2nd gen touch was my first iPod and first Apple product, remember everyone back then didn't have an iPhone my age so this was definitely the cool product to have. Something about having a full touch screen the captivated me, one of the selling games out at the time was Tap Tap Revolution. Total nostalgia...
I got mine around the same time when I was in 3rd grade. It was a 32GB model, and it blew everyone’s mind that you could have more than just one game on it at a time, since this is when we all had Nintendo DS handhelds. Those were some great times. Great video Luke!
The og iPod games were amazing too
The nostalgia hits so hard! My first iPod touch was the 3rd gen, and I still remember how magical it was using it for the first time, then loading doodle jump and jelly car onto it to play with my friends on the school bus. Thanks for this happy bit of history Luke!
Seeing that you made this video makes me so incredibly happy. This was the first tech device I became completely infatuated with getting. I remember saving up for over a year and a half to be able to buy my own iPod touch 4th gen as a kid. I remember being incredibly excited to use a multi touch LCD display. It was insane technology from the future in my mind. This iPod is a legend! 😎
My first device was the iPod video 5th generation. We were really blown away by it and has changed the way we listen to music ever since. Some great playlists came out of that
Man, you just brought me memories of the first iPhone I ever used: the iPhone 4. Those glorious sounds and skeuomorphic design never goes out of style. Thank you for making this video!
I love the 4th gen!! It’s my favorite!! The only problem with these sealed is that the batteries by now don’t hold a charge anymore but I’m assuming you won’t be daily using this. Also the Griffin case that covered the entire thing works to keep scratches and fingerprints off!! I currently am adding more music to it right now!! 😍
After a rough start the battery is holding a charge pretty well now!
I bought one sealed from Spain back in February of 2020. I unboxed it on its 10th anniversary. Sadly doesn't really hold a charge and only lasts like 5 minutes.
@@MatsuJ. I recently bought several 10 year old ipods and the battery has not been an issue...
Mine has a good battery
This is so cool. I remember the first iPod touch commercials. Quality stuff
This was also my first ever Apple product in 2011. This was so cool device. I remember playing a lot of games on it
This is the one I had back in the day. It was a pretty nice time, WiFi was starting to become more accessible and the availability of Apps for communications were starting to be supported.
I appreciate your leaps and boundaries you had gone through. I ordered a refurbished IPod touch 2nd gen. Because I don’t want to go through the hassle of trying to get a unopen pristine version. But I remember the day I got mine in Tennessee for Christmas and I was just playing it on the car ride home. Just it was the most nostalgic piece I ever own
The 4th Gen iPod touch was my first Apple product too!! What a blast from the past
I had a 4th gen iPod Touch and loved it. So did my elder son. I replaced the headphone jack in his once. It wasn't too bad to work on either. Great little walk down memory lane, Luke. Thanks!
the iPod touch 4th gen was also my very first Apple product and I loved every bit of it. brings back so many good memories 🥰 back then iPhone prices were absurd - doesn’t make sense to purchase that expensive phone. but I guess people realized how valuable it became. now loving my iPhone 13 Pro 😍
I still rock my 2nd gen iPod Touch almost every day! I listen to audiobooks with it while walking to work or in the car. 😀
NO WAY this was my first apple product as well! thank you for sharing this vid, warms my heart.
I had the ipod touch 4 too when i was young (my first apple product too) and it was one of the most important tech product of my life, I'll never forget it !
This brought back so many nice memories. I got mine in August of 2011 for 260 Euros. It was my first apple device and smart device ever. I was so amazed by all the things I could do with it and by how slim it was. The screen is broken but it still works and I still have the box for it. At the moment I live in the United States, but when I go back to Greece for vacation I will bring it back with me and repair the screen. It was running iOS 4.0.1 when I got it if I recall. Good times. Great video.
The 4th generation is definitely my favorite iPod touch. I didn't own one during its prime, but I picked one up a little while back to relive the old-school iOS. It had the best jailbreak-ability, wasn't slowed to a crawl with iOS 7, and had probably the best design for stainless steel iPod touches.
Second-gen iPod touch was my first apple product and it immediately became the love of my life! I also enjoyed how apple brought back the packaging style when the iPhone 5C was released
Aww, that definitely made me feel sentimental… I had a third gen that I bought as a birthday present for myself when I turned 40 and it became my voiceover IP phone (over Wi-Fi), camera, ebook and mobile computer all in one for traveling in Spain, Morocco and France. It was so useful and small… I didn’t have an iPhone then, and it was my low budg alternative for quite a while. I finally gave it to a friend when I got an iPad Mini.
Thank you for this video! I can’t find any modern videos of old iPod touches being unboxed. Great job as always.
Same here, first Apple product was an 8gb touch 4. Absolutely love it.
the iPod Touch 4th Gen was also my FIRST EVER product! 🤩🤩 aaaagh the nostalgia 🥲 thank you Luke for this video 🙂 looking forward to your next unboxing ✨✨
I had the 3rd generation iPod touch and absolutely loved it. It actually still works perfectly (except for the battery life and software support of course). Even all the buttons are still functional. That was a great piece of quality!
It all started for me too with the iPod touch 4th gen, wow!
I remember buying the 3rd generation iPod Touch and then the 4th a couple of years later - These two being my first Apple devices. Thanks for the amazing video, as always!
I love a trip down memory lane.. good times
Had a gen2 when I was 10 and I MISSED the old icon design and UI sounds
It was my first introduction to ipods. I loved that thing
This was also my first Apple product! Such great memories and nostalgia, thank you for making this incredible content 🙏🏻
🆙Thanks for watching 🔝🔝message right away I have something for you 🆙🆙🆙
This is also my first apple device ever.
Thanks for the nostalgia trip!
Although I remember my 5th gen iPod touch the most fondly. Maybe you can find that one sealed as well sometime :)
the iPod touch 5th gen is really easy to find sealed for cheap.
I remember I got this for Christmas and was so happy. I wasn't allowed to have an iPhone at the time but I was able to do a lot of stuff on the ipod I could do on iPhone so I was happy enough.
Ahhh the nostalgia! Also got the iPod Touch 4 back when in 2010, also comes with iOS 4.2.1!! Still remembered when I took it to some shop for jailbreak.
I had one! This video really brings up the memories! Mine’s today at my dad’s house, it’s totally scratched.
I remember my first Apple product which was a iPod touch 4th gen. Lots of memories, I want another!
Oh man so many memories.
I got my Ipod touch 4th gen in 2011.
I loved it.
Then I sold it for the 5th gen ipod and later i sold that one and got the ipad mini 2 in 2015 that still works flawless today.
What’s funny is that I accidentally kept some things from those devices.
From the 4th gen ipod, I still have the hard plastic where the ipod sat, and the og sticker that was in front.
From the 5th gen ipod I have the strap
I remember I got the iPod 4 for Christmas in 2010. First apple product and first electronic aside from my Nintendo DSi. Good days.
You just made my december, Luke. I had the same one and sold it to buy the iPhone 5, along with my 4. I was just thinking to get one again, and this was posted. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Cheers for the memories!
🆙Thanks for watching 🔝🔝message right away I have something for you 🆙🆙🆙
This is the same ipod model that I dug out of a skip bin at the tip. Works like a charm.
My parents bought me an iPod Touch 2nd Gen for my 8th birthday in November 2008, I still have it! Lots of memories on it. It was when the TH-cam app came standard on the device, with a totally different format. It locked me into Apple and I’ve only had Apple products since then.
This is so cool to see Luke. The 4 was my second Apple product ever. The first being the iPod right before this one.
I love iPods, my first contact with Apple was a second hand iPod touch 3G that a friend sold me, I love it and a few months later I bought the iPod touch 4G, one of the best Apple products I had.
This was my first ever Apple product as well and I remember I was so happy with it!
my first real apple device. Saved up for it at 6 years old and bought one apple refurbished for $129. I still have it in a drawer somewhere. I turned it on a few months ago it still works and everything.
I still use my 3rd gen iPod Touch daily. I bought the 64 Gig version in late 2008. Fantastic device.
My 30GB iPod from 2007 is still a (almost) daily driver for me. Still syncs with iTunes and great out on the motorcycle. If they still made the classic style I would buy another one now!
Love these old unboxings!
The first Apple device I ever bought myself when I was a kid was a yellow 5th Gen Touch, and I absolutely loved that thing. Until the battery started to go bad, but that's not important!
I loved the look of this ipod
I rememeber using this in elementary school. Talk about the good old times.
I used my 2nd gen iPod touch late 2008 to early 2014 until buying iPhone 5s. It was really good time. I still have memos from those days.
This really brings me back to middle school! This iPod was my first iOS device.
Man you just sparked some nostalgia in me I remember getting this on graduation day back in 2011 it was my first iOS device and I loved it hate that it only had 8 GB but I would’ve made it work I got a 7th generation now along with a iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 12 Pro
I still have mine. That was my first Apple device I ever owned too, and it still works.
Great video! just wondering, how do you check the date with the serial number?
my first trek into the iPhone world and one of my favorite Apple products; this iPod touch generation and the 5th generation iPod are untouchable
My dad used an iPod touch 4th generation and now it’s mine, and it’s pretty cool.
iPod second get was my first personal Apple product. My father had a MacBook Pro and the iPhone 3G (might have been the 3Gs). I just was so fascinated by those product at the time, they were absolutely nothing like what I was used to seeing (keep in mind that this is 2008-2010 Ukraine we are talking about, so Apple products were a rare sight indeed).
I loved that iPod so much and used it for like 4 years. This was the product that got me to appreciate how much better thought out Apple products were compared to the likes of early Samsung touchscreen feature phones. Apart from absolutely scratching the hell out of that shiny backplate, that iPod was just simply amazing to my 11-12 year old mind. Fair to say that this is want got me into tech to begin with.
Thank you Luke for covering this great product that brings so many memories for me, and I am sure that I'm not the only one who has those fun childhood memories of these iPods!
I also have my first Smart device (not smartphone) that is this 4th gen iPod Touch, have got some mad nostalgic memories when taking photos with it. Until last year, got a Note 10+ and still use it as the sidekick until it died.
Hey Luke, this is really a nostalgic video for me, because this iPod touch was my first apple product ever. And just like you I got it at my 12th birthday in October 2010. Back then this device was so amazing and opened a new world for me. I was just so much better than my Nokia running Symbian which was my phone. And I still remember how me and my best friend were talking each day about all the things this iPod can do (always looking forward to the day where it’s waiting as birthday gift) and which version we should go for…white or black…how many gigabytes and so on. It was just so exciting back then and now 11 years later buying a device became “normal” compared to the feeling back then.
Greetings from Germany
This was my first product too, wow this brings so many memories ♥️
Fun fact: Apple basically built iPods into MacOS after they got rid of iTunes with Catalina, so iPods can always be restored, added to, updated and activated.
Wooooooow
It’s true, you can do everything through finder or Apple Music now
I basically used the ipod touch 3rd and then 4th gen as my daily smart device between 2009 and 2014. Had my LG dumbphone for calls and texts and the touch did everything else. It truly was genius marketing because eventually, I did end up with an iphone and ipad.
The nostalgia is reallll 😢 I remember when I got mine for the first time it was my 8th birthday and I opened it and it didn’t work so my dad took it back to the Apple Store and it came back with a sticker on the side of the box saying happy birthday with my name 😢 the memories were brilliant
I still remember when i got it, i was 10years old, this was so much ahead of its time
So exciting when Luke uploads a video
I have two iPod touch 4s a black and a white one. The black one is obliterated, but the white one is in like great condition. Just with scratches of course, and I love it so much
For me this is a huge coincidence! I just bought one yesterday!
I remember getting an early model iPod Touch and returning it in exchange for an iPod Classic because at the time, the earphones didn't even have a remote on them, and so every time I wanted to skip or replay a track, I needed to pull the device out of my pocket, unlock it, and use the touch screen, which was super annoying. With the Classic, I could just reach into my pocket and press the buttons on the Click Wheel without looking. Eventually they added the mic and remote to the earphones, which solved that problem.
I got this exact model as a christmas gift when I was 10. Was a very decent gaming device and I had so much fun with it. Played a TON of Minecraft and Skylanders on it!
I had this one back in the day. I was 8 years old. I remember the built on TH-cam app in this. I used to watch videos on it for hours.
I had the 2nd gen iPod Touch as a kid. It was very special to me. Fun times :)
With this product, Apple actually helped create its future customer base. and she succeeded. I was in love with this iPod and spent all my money on this product. I still use my Apple ID that I opened that year. and I used ipod, iphone 4 iphone 5, iphone 5s 16gb-32gb, iphone Xr, iphone 14 pro max, macbook air 2012-2023 respectively. And it all started with just this iPod! That's incredible!
That was a fun video definitely went back in time and brought the nostalgia
Great video as always! Will you do a video with this on iOS 7 Beta?
Do you think hink is possible to update it with a better battery and some other components like a better chip or something? It could be cool!
This was awesome. I too had a 4th gen iPod touch, still have a sample test video up on one of my random TH-cam channels.
I bought a 6th gen iPod touch with my own money after Christmas. I still have it and I’m happy with it
2007 to 2010 were the golden days of applw
Ahhhh I remember my first Apple product that got me hooked. It was the 1st generation iPod Shuffle. What an iconic device…… this would be my first MP3 player and I remember just absolutely loving it. I was a kid, and this was my first tech product that wasnt a video game system. At last, a product that I could navigate and figure out and it felt so premium and intuitive. I wanted an iPod so badly but we were too broke growing up to afford one, but Apple released the budget iPod shuffle for $99 and it made for a great Christmas gift. I still have it sitting around somewhere as well as the box it came in.
years ago I was going back and forth between the iPod Classic and The iPod Touch 4th Gen. Ended up with the iPod Touch but as of 4 days ago I bought a mint condition iPod Classic 6.5 Gen (7th) off Ebay! so excited to get it lol. going to be cool
4th gen iPod touch was my first Apple product, I still have it and it still works!
This was my first Apple product ever too. I miss the good old days with this. Mine technically still works but the LCD is broken. If I got it replaced, it would be working again
this exact model is also the first apple product I ever bought with my own money back in 2010 when I was in 6th grade.
These types of videos are always fun to watch
This was my first iOS device as well. I remember the back was so prone to scratches that I had to use sandpaper on it to hide them.
Man I remember when my father first got me this exact iPod touch, so many memories, I remember all the reggaetón music we had on it lol.
I got one of these iPods (or the previous generation, it was the one without a camera), as well as a combo printer/scanner, for free with the purchase of my MacBook Pro in 2010. Apple has some of the best deals for college students.
This is actually so true this is the first apple device I had and it served me for many years and I agree this is the best iPod ever made (imo)
I really love of video, really really really the best I can see this forever. I have my iPod touch fourth generation Q, a lot of nostalgic
I still have mine.
It was my pre-introdution to smartphones, when money wasn't enough to pay a data plan.
My first Apple product was a IBM chip Power Mac G5, then i got an iPod video 5th gen. Both were awesome.
I got my white 4th gen iPod touch in the summer of 2012 from Best Buy, but later had to sell it a few years ago. Still miss that iPod, and that classic iOS 6 design.
