Waterproof iPod Shuffle The iPod shuffle is one of the most unique in Apple’s portable devices line. Simply due to the fact that it’s the smallest and it's the only one without a screen. Even the tiny iPod Nano gets a screen. Some have argued that a la...

Just to recap, this year Apple took the buttons away from the new iPod Nano, but bought them back for the new shuffle. Last year, Apple abandoned the design of the iPod shuffle and moved from a square sized player, to a more minimalistic design where...
You cant really complain about the iPod shuffle. I mean sure, it would have been nice if there was a 4GB option, and maybe it’d be nice if the in-box headphones had inline controls. But otherwise we think Apple was pretty smart with the redesign of th...

I am not sure about the generation number of iPod Shuffle. It must be version No 4. There was a transitional variant with new colors and prices as well. So, we have generation 3.5 or something similar. It is not important anyway. I would like to s...
You can use any headphones and will not feel the difference, because the button is on its body anyway. You may like the green nature of the player as: The box is really minute and I especially enjoy tiny logos with text "Start here". As to the advant...

We remember our first iPod, the iPod Mini. At the time, it was the smallest MP3 player available, and we thought it was just about the most awesome thing ever. The fact that you could carry about 1,000 songs with you in that tiny package (...

Apple's fourth-generation iPod shuffle isn't going to elicit any "you've come a long way, baby" accolades, but adding a click wheel for navigation makes it far more user friendly. The shuffle has always been the least sexy player in the iPod line-up—a...
Lowest-priced iPod. Now has on-player controls for easier navigation. Voiceover feature speaks the name of songs, artists, and playlists.
Not a lot of storage. No screen, thus no video or photo support. Bundled with lousy earbuds.
It's hard to get excited about an iPod with no screen, but Apple's inclusion of on-player controls makes the affordable shuffle easier to navigate—and a better value. Buy it now...

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 is dead, Late spring in 2006, at the ripe old age of 14, my girlfriend slid a box across the table at a restaurant we picked for our second anniversary. I unwrapped it, and what I saw packed neatly inside a sporty, lime-green box elated m...
