And here's another iPod touch with 2MP camera leak

iPod touch with camera prototype back

Another iPod touch with a 2 megapixel camera has been leaked, this time from Tinhte in Vietnam who also brought us the second iPhone HD/iPhone 4G leak. We saw something similar just before September 2009's iPod touch G3 announcement -- sans camera -- and again on eBay later.

Rumors persist that Apple pulled the camera from the iPod touch at the eleventh hour, perhaps due to quality or availability of parts, and if true it stands to reason a few prototypes with camera are still floating around -- it's just amazing Apple has lost control of so many of them.

And that Vietnam appears to be the latest hotspot for Apple device leaks.

More pics and video after the break!

  1. iRoynum says:

    Thats NOT an official Apple.inc new or leaked iPod, thats only a normal iPod Touch with a drilled hole for a camera and a weird NON official iPhone OS, thats another Operating System; That was made by him himself, some company or store!

  2. iSurf says:

    How does this guy get all this stuff?

  3. iSurf says:

    Oh i thought that screen was to test everything on the device hahaah oops

  4. TyKapp says:

    @ iRoynum--any proof?

    It may or may not be legit--interesting though!!

  5. Rene Ritchie says:

    iSurf: yes, that's a firmware test suite. I believe we've seen it on prototypes before?

  6. Shrike says:

    Isn't this just the same iPod touch with camera we saw last year?

  7. Björn says:

    What was that other device in between the IPod Touch and iPad?

  8. Caballera says:

    I would think if the iPhone was going to have a forward facing camera that the iPod Touch would have one also.

  9. Joel says:

    Vietnam's gov't may have to get involved. If Apple closes any operations over there (i'm assuming its leaking from a sub-contractor) that will make it pretty hard to attract other big name brands.

  10. PeterM11 says:

    I hope this was a test for the last generation that got canceled or a fake. I really hope the new iPod Touch is sporting the same new design as the new iPhone.

  11. Glenn says:

    May be Apple on the outside, but not on the inside. When he turned it on, it only took 14sec to come on, not the usual 30-40sec. Something fishy.

  12. Johan says:

    Hey guys! You should really take a look at itunes when they speed up the vid.
