  • Package includes a cute little syncing cradle
  • Tiny carrying weight

  • 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
  • Integrated battery
  • Odd USB charger.

  • Amazing size & sound Ultimate portability Very low $79 price
  • Dock-dongle required Blah-quality previous-gen headphones included
  • Despite my minor irritation with the shuffle’s dock-dongle, I am excited to give this new product an enthusiastic and vigorous ‘two thumbs up’. The design of the shuffle itself is fantastic. The sound quality is stunning, so long as you...

  • Very good sound quality. Extremely compact and sleek. Seamless integration with iTunes. Built-in clip. Sturdy aluminum casing. Inexpensive.
  • No screen. Doesnt work with iPod accessories that require a 30-pin dock connector. Charge/sync dock is bulky. No extra features.
  • The second-generation iPod shuffle is impressively small, and the built-in clip makes it ideal for working out, running, or just casual listening. Its lack of a screen or any extras like an FM tuner—or even support for many iPod accessories—is...

  • our top premium in-canal picks for punch and fidelity, respectively, and tested the new shuffle against the original version, a current-generation iPod nano, and the current, enhanced fifth-generation iPod. Though neither shuffle supports Apple Lossl...
  • Audio quality has dipped modestly from prior shuffle, and isn’t as clear with good earphones as a full-sized iPod or nano. Unable to recharge or sync on the go without carrying around the included dock, as no USB plug is integrated. Must turn un...
  • Back when Apple released the first iPod shuffle, the companys aggressive pricing literally rattled the entire flash memory market: you could hardly find a competing player with the same 512MB or 1GB capacities at Apples $99 and $149 price points. Tod...

  • Cute as a button; rugged finish; good battery life; plenty loud; attractive price.
  • Audio quality not as good as some other iPods; small size makes iPod harder to use; no Apple Lossless support.
  • After unveiling the world’s smallest iPod in September, Apple finally shipped the second edition of its display-less music player, the iPod shuffle ( ). Smaller than a matchbook and as thick as a AAA battery, this iPod comes in a single 1GB capacit...

  • It may not be the best value iPod around, but the Shuffle is among the ones at the front when it comes to sound quality. Its still a great player to keep in a bag or in the car for those occasions when you dont have your main music player or phone t...

  • Even cheaper than the second-gen shuffle; dead-simple user interface with satisfying tactile controls; integrated belt clip provides a handy way to keep track of the player; available in five metallic colours; package includes a cute little syncing cradle
  • No screen, so theres no way to navigate easily among artists, albums or playlists; only offers so-so sound quality; might be too small for some users; non-standard USB syncing takes away from its plug-and-go appeal
  • If you like your music playback simple and your device nearly invisible, the third-generation iPod shuffle will suit you well. But absentminded users should steer clear of this easy-to-misplace player ...

  • Its tiny! Clips on clothing Cool factor Reasonable storage
  • Needs dock to connect No screen
  • The new iPod shuffle has been completely redesigned from the ground up. Its less than half the size of the previous shuffle and comes with an aluminium case that has a special clip on the back, so that you can attach it to your clothing.In fact, it lo...
