CnBeta news website, iFixit, to just listed iPod touch 6 was disassembled, and found a little secret: Although the camera is 8 million pixels touch 6 iSight and iPhone 6, but it was equipped with is not the same, the former is smaller, and there is no sapphire lens.

The news of the sapphire screen we heard most frequently was before iPhone 6 was released. As apple and sapphire maker GT Advanced reached a cooperation agreement, almost everyone believes that iPhone 6 will be equipped with sapphire screen. Not yet, the sapphire screen is Apple Watch. And finally, apple and GT fell out, because the other side went bankrupt. According to GT, they went bankrupt because iPhone 6 did not use the sapphire glass they produced.

And Apple's argument is that, GT sapphire glass production is not up to standard. It's been a long time since the two companies ripped apart, and I wonder if Apple has found a new supplier today? This time, iPod touch 6 "accidentally" gave up sapphire lenses, do you think this is a money saving program, or is the supply too tight?
