No screen
Can only sync with one computer
Mediocre sound quality The Final Word The shuffle would serve well as a secondary music player for exercise
But too many limitations - most notably the lack of screen - make it a poor choice for everyday use.
Requires a USB sync from a PC or Mac running iTunes. There's no Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Only 2GB of storage. Navigating your music is a bit difficult without a screen. You can't download subscription Apple Music songs
So theres no way to navigate easily among artists
Albums
Or playlists
Might be too small for some users
Nonstandard USB syncing takes away from its plug-and-go appeal
Most durable portable media player ever, Cheapest iPod you can buy (new), Extremely portable, you can clip it anywhere, Impressive battery life
No display, and ALL that entails, Price isnt as competitive as it should be considering all the missing features
Due to the simplicity of the shuffles design, the most impressive features it can boast include its extremely small size, unmatched durability, and better than rated battery life. If youre the kind of person that constantly breaks or scratches the sc...
Abstract: There is a reason that Apple owns the market when it comes to portable MP3 players. Not just the fact that the iPod wrote the book, but how every new iPod continues to pave the way. The completely redesigned shuffle continues the Apple tradition of tre...
Stylish and lightweight, great software (iTunes), doubles as a Flash drive for data, choice of colors, value-priced
Included earbuds are adequate at best
Apple, the undisputed leader in portable MP3 players, has completely redesigned its diminutive iPod shuffle, combining efficiency, unique portability and high style in a very affordable and attractive unit. Less than half the size and weight of the or...
The ability to store 1 GB of music on a device this small. Above average sound quality. Easy to use with Apple's iTunes. Cool colors. Perfect for working out. Comes with Apple's earbuds. 12-hour battery life.
Being limited to 128-Kps AAC. Small enough to lose. Larger capacity Nano with screen is not that much more expensive and does sound better.
One of the coolest digital media players ever made with smart functionality and above average sound quality. Easy to charge and load with music. Inexpensive, although the better quality Nano is not that much more expensive....
Tiny, beautifully designed shell. Easy to use, with minimal buttons. Sturdy clip. Colored aluminum looks great and shiny.
Dearth of features. Sound quality is not as good as larger iPods. No WMA support, even for non-DRM files. Proprietary connector.
We have some serious beefs with the iPod Shuffle: it has no screen, the tiny LED lights are inadequate for giving you feedback about the players status, and it lacks any features beyond basic music playing. Its proprietary cable bugged us, and its ...
Abstract: Last week Apple introduced four iPod Shuffles in vibrant colors including orange, making it the first iPod to be offered in orange. There were no changes made to the Shuffle other than the color and that the Shuffles were bundled with the newer ear bud...
Abstract: Apple surprised more than a few industry pundits when it snuck out a rainbow of iPod shuffle colors at the end of January. Ever since it first hit the streets in 2005, the shuffle has been seen as the runt of the litter in Apples music player line, a...
Abstract: Apples first-generation Shuffle proved to be an enormous success. Following on its heels is the even smaller and much cooler second generation model. Does the new kid on the block hold up compared to the model before it?Read on for the full review! Pa...

The iPod Shuffle has no screen, so theres no way to navigate easily among artists, albums, or playlists. And it only offers so-so sound quality. The player might be too small for some users, and nonstandard USB syncing takes away from its plug-and-go ...
If you like your music playback simple and your device nearly invisible, the second-generation iPod Shuffle will suit you well. But absentminded users should steer clear of this easy-to-misplace player.
Abstract: After the first models of iPod nano, iPod Shuffle did not look that attractive - it had similar dimensions and the lack of a display robbed the model of all iPod nano advantages. Apple must have either given up iPod Shuffle at all (that is update nothi...
