Ipod shuffle

Advantages: Small, good sound quality, value for money, reliable, looks good
Disadvantages: easily scratched if left in pocket of keys

...I brought a blue ipod shuffle a little while back and i love it! The shuffle is good for those people who do not need a screen on their mp3 player. By not having a screen you are not constantly looking for a favourite song, the player will choose one for you and if you don't like it you are able to skip to the next one in line. 1GB capacity allows up to 240 songs to be stored and carried around with you where ever you go. Being just over 4cm long and 2.5cm thick it is small enough to put into your pocket without having to worry about it getting in the way. It can also be worn like a badge so that everyone can see your devotion to music. The controls are easy to use and self explanatory. To turn the shuffle on and off all that is needed is the little push of a switch on the top of the player. This means there is no holding down of various...

ipod shuffle

Advantages: small compact design
Disadvantages: no screen

...I was given this ipod as a present and I was very happy since my old mp3 was very unreliable and stopped working completely. However, if I had been given the choice I would not have chosen this particular one. Although it is very good value for money, the design lets it down. I like to fill my ipod with random music from downloads or friends. I can walk along the street happily listening to new songs but unfortunately I can not find out who I am listening too! Yes, I can come home and plug it into the computer and click on every single track to find out but the whole point of the ipod is for music on the go (having to plug the ipod into the computer to charge it everyday because it only lasts a few hours is also very irritating) Very clever to make extra money from everyone running out to by plug in chargers. I think overall it...

Ipod Shuffle!

Advantages: small with a cool little clip
Disadvantages: screenless - but do you need all those extras features?

...- I would suggest play.com or amazon.co.uk 2GB The Ipod shuffle was originally released with a 1GB memory capacity but this newer version now comes with double the capacity of 2GB. I personally find this a much better size and can fit around 300 to 400 songs on. Of course if you only want about 150 to 200 songs then the smaller size version would be better but at only a small increase in price the 2GB version is definitely the right choice to make and will leave you listening to all those great songs for hours on end! Other accessories: There are hundreds of different accessories you can purchase to enhance your little ipod shuffle. There are cool skins to protect it and a variety of cases and straps or armbands to hold it in. There is also a car charger and even a waterproof case for it! There are loads of nifty little things...

Ipod Shuffle

Advantages: light weight, practicle
Disadvantages: no video

...I recently received an Ipod shuffle as a gift. I am very happy with the product. It is easy to use and comes with a nice little stand charger. Also it's not bulky, so you can actually take it places without feeling hindered by the mass. What's unique about this model is that it has both a shuffle and a continuous stream button. This means that if you record lectures on it, they won't be automatically shuffled, you can always scan for the subject you are looking for and stream continuously. On a full charge the shuffle lasts over 10 hours. I personally love that i can hold it in the palm of my hands and have an assured source of entertainment on a plain or during commuting times. I strongly suggest it and I believe it is a very good value for the money. Additionally I don't seem to scene any programmed breakdown in the shuffle like...

ipod shuffle

Advantages: small, light, cute, easy to use
Disadvantages: pointy edges

...I love my ipod shuffle it is cute, small and it packs a punch and a half. This is amazing value i mean you can't go wrong paying at most £50. I mean any one who wants something easy to use, small, that plays your music as loud as ur ears can take then this is the musical device for you. I mean my grandmother can use it its that easy even tho she had a moan about how music in her day was something worth listening to but other then that she liked it in her words ooohhh thats cute what is is? after the explanation she found it quite handy. I use mine in the gym on the bus all over really. It's handy and easy to charge as all you do is plug it into your usb port on your computer using the wire of couse leave it to charge till the lillte light has turned green which only takes about 30mins at most unplug and your all charged...

I-POD SHUFFLE

Advantages: Small and easy to use
Disadvantages: Can easily be lost

...The I-pod shuffle is the easiest I-pod to use. It is small, so it is easier to take with you where ever you go. It comes in a variety of different colours like green, blue and silver etc. There is an on / off button, a shuffle button (which enables you to turn the shuffle mode off, and always have it starting from the beginning of the play list) and play, pause, forward and back buttons. It is very handy and you can also buy accessories for it including a speaker (which projects the sound very loudly), different styles of head phones, covers in a variety of colours and a small carry case to store it when it's not in use. The I-pod itself comes with a USB cable so you can charge it and add more music. I would recommend this to people who want an easy I-pod to use and doesn't require much technological knowledge....

Ipod shuffle - small and light

Advantages: Very small, lightweight, holds quite a lot of music
Disadvantages: No screen

...I've only started to use my Ipod shuffle in the last few weeks, despite having it since Xmas 2007, as it took me ages to get round to installing Itunes. It's a 2nd generation silver 1GB shuffle, and I've been so impressed that I've just ordered a nano. The selling point is how amazingly light it is - 16g. I think the headphones probably double the weight! Although it comes packaged with the standard white Apple headphones, I've tended not to use them as they stand out so much. Once it's installed, it's fairly easy setting up the Ipod with Itunes. I've used it purely to listen to music I already owned on CD, so can't comment on the download function, but transferring music to the Ipod is pretty quick and painless. Using it is intuitive - there's only a couple of functions - play, pause, back and forward, plus the volume. You have...

Dance To The Ipod Shuffle

Advantages: Small, Lightweight, Easy To Use
Disadvantages: Feels Breakable, not a lot for your money, limited use

...What if five years ago you told somebody that they could ditch their portable cd player and have over 100 tracks in something the size of a chewing gum packet. They probably would have laughed at you and carried on ruining their hearing whilst annoying the other passengers on the bus. Well portable MP3 players are now all the range and at the top of the pile is the iPod from apple. Backed by some funky advertising it's safe to say that this is one of the in gadgets to have at your disposal. But for those on the go and liking to be discrete they may favour something more inconspicuous. For those spy's among us Apple has brought out the 'Shuffle'. A small portable MP3 player that you can fit into your pocket or sling around your neck, either it won't trouble you, you probably won't even know it's there. The shuffle comes in 512mb...

iPod Shuffle - A Small Bite Of The Apple

Advantages: Battery life is strong; appearance; small and light
Disadvantages: No screen; lacks a hold switch; 1GB memory is small

... APPLE iPOD 1GB REVIEW INTRO I absolutely adore iPods, and I'm a HUGE fan of Apple and their products. I have several iPods myself (check out my other reviews on the iPod Classic and iPod Nano 4G), but don't always get round to reviewing them all. When the iPod Shuffle first arrived on the scene, it was tall and white, and I remember it cost around £40. I owned one of these and thoroughly enjoyed owning one, but loathed the fact it didn't have a screen to look at. So, when this version of the iPod Shuffle hit the shelves some years ago now, I was hesitant to make a purchase, because this iPod Shuffle too does not boast a screen. But, being an iPod fan, I went along to my local Argos store and bought one for myself. Right now, a couple of years later, they're still selling on Argos for around the £30 mark (£31 to be...

Ipod shuffle 1GB

Advantages: Easy to use with simple menus
Disadvantages: Perhaps not eneough storage for some

...I was brought one of these ipod shuffle, 1 gb for Christmas. Ｉhave previously owned an ipod nano and have to say that I much prefer the shuffle, I have found it much more easy to use and more easy to attach to my clothing whilst using it in the gym. The battery life lasts ages, at least 7 hours and can be charged up by a wide variety of methods so its very easy to do so whatever the circumstances. It holds approximately 240 songs which is adequate for my needs, and itunes makes it very easy to chop and change the tracks I want on there quickly by connecting to the computer by a usb cable. All in all I would very highly recommend the ipod shuffle, there is the added bonus of being able to choose the colour you want. Ｈｏｗｅｖｅｒ　ｔ 5352...
