Teardown: 5th-gen Apple iPod Touch

“Sneaky, sneaky Apple,” said iFixit’s chief information architect, Miroslav Djuric, in an e-mail announcing iFixit’s teardown of 5th Gen iPod Touch 16 GB. “Thought you could pull a fast one on us by releasing a new, stripped-down version of the current iPod Touch without your customary fanfare? Not on our watch: It’s teardown time.”

iFixit dives into their 5th Gen iPod Touch 16 GB teardown with the usual gusto–here are excerpts.

“We used our trusty iOpener to loosen the adhesive securing the front panel to the rear case. We’re getting used to this opening method, as it melts adhesive as fast as water melts a wicked witch, without risking screen warp.”
