I have what I assume is a 5th Generation Ipod. If I compare data to Apple's release dates, model, and serial numbers it does not match. A U2 Special Edition Model 1136 was released in June 2006. The 5th Generation Ipod Model1238 was released in September 2006. What if mine is an 80GB with video Ipod dated June 2006 Model 1136 and Serial number ends V9P?
See Identify your iPod model - Apple Support. It would appear to be a 5th generation model from the end of the serial number.

I concur, just found it odd that it matches two different releases. I can clearly see it's a 5th Generation just by size alone. I was just wondering if anybody had an explanation for the differences. Really just curious. Thank you for the reply.
Any apparent discrepancies between the serial no. of your device and Apple's published advice on device identification shouldn't have any practical implications for using your iPod, which was all I was talking about when suggesting it didn't matter. I'm not dismissing your curiosity at all, just letting you know that as a fellow user I have no further insight to give you.
You can try the website https://everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/ to see if that provides you with any more information about your device's serial number

You're welcome. 🙂
I can't explain the discrepancy, but I don't think it really matters.

It does matter if I would like an explanation if possible. You obviously do not have the education to answer the question, that does not deem it of any lesser importance.
