When Apple revealed the 4th generation iPod Touch most people were concerned about the display, Digital camera and capacity, however one thing that went pretty much unnoticed was its impressive battery life.

The new iPod Touch's battery life is quite staggering, especially when you consider it takes just 2 hours for a fast charge (80%), and 4 hours for a full charge.

A full charge that it is said to give you 40 hours of audio playback or 7 hours of video playback, you are probably wondering what makes it possible.

Luckily the guys over at ifixit recently disassembled the iPod Touch 4G, you can see the three page teardown here, what struck me the most was the size of the battery, we have embedded a photo below showing its size.

According to ifixit the battery has a capacity of 3.44 watt hours, which combined with iOS 4 gives it superior battery life than one of its biggest competitors the Zune HD.

I do think it is getting to the point where devices such as the iPod Touch has more than enough battery life, do you?

Some one say vattery life is great. Of course, it will always, always need more! Just think what kind of battery they could have fit into it had it not been 17% thinner.

So, are you agree with this viewpoint? Or, do you have any other idea for it?  what do you think ? Say something!
