The Apple iPod Shuffle is affordably priced with a compact design and long-lasting battery. It's both stylish and easily wearable
Thanks to its sturdy built-in clip
The additional controls on the new iPod Shuffle mean you'll be able to pause
Skip and rewind through all your music
Without having to resort to remote control based buttons.Despite being more squat than the previous iPod Shuffle
Apple's latest wonder remains every bit as slender
And usability is better than ever. The clip is easier to use

Solid and premium in feel all round. From the front
To the back where the iPod Shuffle clips onto clothing
The iPod Shuffle feels great. It’s the smallest iPod Shuffle that has produced
Yet the buttons are larger
Making the MP3 player easier to use on-the-go or in the gym. The iPod Shuffle is also so light

The editors didn't like
No screen
Mediocre sound quality
Dreadful headphones
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
Unlike the slightly bigger iPod Nano
You won't be able to select individual songs over playlists – as there's no screen on the Shuffle. Apple has binned the earphone-mounted controls
So you'll have to pay extra if you want buttons closer to your ears. At 2GB
Capacity is also somewhat limited.
Awkward to clip on clothing
No way to lock out controls from inadvertent bumps.
No screen means you can't find your music quickly
Puny sound
Expensive for the capacity
No 4GB version
No 8GB version
Earbuds are typically bad
It's pricey
Only 2GB
No remote on the headphones included
Only 2GB of memory means you'll have to really compress your tunes
2GB capacity is only option available to you
Sound is of very good quality
But it doesn’t quite match that of the large Apple iPod Touch. Nor does it reach its highest volume levels. It means that the iPad Shuffle isn’t quite the smaller alternative to the iPod Touch that it could be. A small 2GB capacity also fills up in no time. The supplied Apple headphones are sub-par
Uncomfortable and leak a lot of sound. Purchasing a new non-Apple p

Abstract: It's not an easy thing, admitting you were wrong. But with the 2010 iPod Shuffle, Apple's owned up to the previous generation's follies in the best possible way: fixing them. Mostly.Zero buttons. That's as minimalist as it gets.This new Shuffle, this litt...

The iPod Shuffle includes a sturdy built-in clip; support for playlists, audiobooks, podcasts, Genius Mixes; and a multilingual VoiceOver feature that announces track information, battery status, and menu navigation
The 2GB capacity can't hold much; there's no headphone remote nor radio; the track controls tend to get pinched when clipping the iPod to your clothes; and the chances of you accidentally running it through the washing machine are quite high
The Apple iPod Shuffle is an adorable way to take your favorite songs on the go, but sometimes it's too small for its own good....
VoiceOver button, longer battery life, return of physical playback controls
Difficult to determine exact battery level, no hold feature, only 2GB model available, no in-line controls on headphones
Apple's fourth-generation iPod Shuffle is a sleek and easy-to-use device, largely thanks to the return of the controls offered by the first- and second-generation Shuffles. The VoiceOver feature is also a big winner...
On-device controls; voiceOver navigation; long battery life
Awkward to clip on clothing; no way to lock out controls from inadvertent bumps, $69
The controls on the device are fairly simple: a circular set of buttons allows you to move forward and backward between tracks (right and left), and increase and decrease the volume (top and bottom). Clicking the centre button toggles between playback and...
15 hrs Audio Playback, Sleek and light in weight, Good sound quality, Excellent battery life, Good onbody controls at back, Ultra compact design
Limited memory, No FM radio, Does not support all music formats
With the Apple iPod Shuffle Fourth Generation Review, we can understand that this device is sure to make us entertain. Though bit expensive, but it is worth the price. This new Shuffle features advanced engineering technologies and offers music you have n...

The new iPod Shuffle (4th Generation) made a come back with a new design and on-body physical controls which is much easier to use than the button-less third generation iPod Shuffle. While we love the ultra-portable design and physical controls, the l...
