iPod touch (Generation 5, space gray, 2014)

The iPod touch Generation 5 featured a new design from previous models. It was thinner, smaller, and available in space gray (dark gray back with a black glass front), and silver, pink, yellow, blue, and red (color back with a white glass front). The back of the case included a spring-loaded protruding metal circle that allowed an iPod touch loop wrist strap to be attached. The iPod touch loop shipped with the 32 and 64 GB models, but not this 16 GB model.

The iPod touch Generation 5 had a 4-inch Retina Display (1136×640 at 326 ppi). Its rear camera was a 5-megapixel iSight camera with and LED flash that could record video at 1080p. The front-facing 1.2-megapixel FaceTime HD camera could record video at 720p. Wireless connections included Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11n Wi-Fi, and it allowed AirPlay.

This iPod touch used a 1 GHz dual-core A5 processor with 512 MB of RAM. Internal storage options included 16, 32, or 64 GB. It could run iOS 9.3.5 and supported Siri.

iPod touch (Generation 5, no iSight, 16 GB, silver, 2013)

This version of the iPod touch Generation 5 was introduced without a press release as an entry-level iPod touch device. It featured a similar design as previous Generation 5 models, but lacked the rear 5-megapixel iSight camera and had no spring-loaded connector to attach an iPod touch loop wrist strap.

This entry-level model was only offered with 16 GB of internal storage and was only available with a black glass front and metallic silver back.

Like its predecessors, this version of the iPod touch Generation 5 had a 4-inch Retina Display (1136×640 at 326 ppi). The front-facing 1.2-megapixel FaceTime HD camera could record video at 720p. Wireless connections included Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11n Wi-Fi, and it allowed AirPlay.

This iPod touch used a 1 GHz dual-core A5 processor with 512 MB of RAM. Internal storage options included 16, 32, or 64 GB. It could run iOS 9.3.5 and supported Siri.

iPad mini (original, Wi-Fi, 16 GB, silver, unopened, 2012)

The original iPad mini featured a 7.9-inch screen at 1024×768 (163 ppi). Internally, it had a dual core 1 GHz Apple A5 processor; 512 MB of RAM; and 16, 32, or 64 GB of storage. It had two cameras: a rear-mounted 5 megapixel iSight camera (1080p) and a front-mounted 1.2 megapixel FaceTime HD camera (720p). The original iPad mini used a Lightning port.

I kept my original iPad mini in my daily backpack for a very long time due to its near perfect size and weight as a truly mobile device with the same 1024×768 screen as a standard iPad of the time (just with smaller pixels). I purchased this additional iPad mini as an example for my collection and never unboxed it. This version has a silver back and white front.

I found the iPad mini perfect for travel due to its small size, reduced weight, high-quality display, and 10-hour battery.
