User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Happy to shuffle
I had an older iPod for years and have a library of 100′S songs. It’s fun to be able to pick out my current favs and put just those on the shuffle. My shuffle reflects my “music mood” now and I just change the shuffles library to reflect what type of workout I want to do.
5 Stars Bulk-less music on the go.
This iPod Shuffle is my second iPod so there were no surprises in the box.
With my massive 160GB iPod Classic I bring all my music with me everywhere I go. I listen to it all day everyday at work. Yesterday I was grooving to Reggae while snowblowing the driveway. Sometimes the iPod Classic is too big and kind of in the way. The iPod Shuffle is the perfect answer to this “little” problem. Though limited by the 1GB size, I can fill it and empty and refill it at will. I find the small size ideal for the Gym. Low profile and light weight design makes it ideal to clip to my tshirt for lifting or cardio. Never in the way but always present – this thing rocks (and reggae’s too).
I picked the green color and was happy to find the color depicted on Amazon.com to be right on the money. Speaking of money, I found this Shuffle cheaper here online than advertised at my local bigbox exectronics stores. For those of you who seek instant gratification; My Shuffle showed up at my house so quickly, it’s hardly worth the trip to the mall. 2 days.
5 Stars Perfect for those who like it simple
All I wanted was an iPod that I could listen to while taking a walk or riding the subway to and from work. I didn’t need a screen that would list the songs I downloaded. I didn’t need video; I’ve never needed images to enjoy music. I certainly didn’t need more than this Shuffle’s capacity. And I wasn’t looking to impress anyone by pulling something super-expensive and eye-catching out of my pocket. So…the tiny iPod Shuffle is perfect for me. It easy to use, has good sound, and the controls are so easy and manageable that I don’t have to pull it out of my pocket to use them. Of course, not everyone is going to feel that no-frills is the way to go. But if you do like it simple, prefer Apple products, and either don’t want to or can’t spend a lot of money, I believe you’ll be happy with the Shuffle.
5 Stars I love my Shuffle!
What is there to say about the iPod shuffle that hasn’t already been said in the other 300+ reviews?
So here are the five things *I* like best about it:
It’s small and lightweight and goes right into my shirt pocket.
It’s inexpensive so if i lose or break it or if it is stolen no big deal.
I can use the controls without looking at it.
It holds just the right amount of music.
Sand doesn’t mess it up at the beach.
The charge lasts a long time.
Okay, so that’s six.
Anyway, I’ve had my shuffle for 2 1/2 years and I still love it.
5 Stars Best Gift Ever
I got this for my grandaughter as a Christmas present. She loves it. She even slept with it. Thank you for helping me with the perfect gift.
