None noted for its intended use.
No display
And ALL that entails
Price isnt as competitive as it should be considering all the missing features
Unforgiving earbuds
Lacks a display
Requires dock to charge
Needs removable clip. Not usable as a flash drive. Sound not as crisp as previous model. Original earphones included. Requires a dock.
Being limited to 128-Kps AAC. Small enough to lose. Larger capacity Nano with screen is not that much more expensive and does sound better.
No screen. Doesnt work with iPod accessories that require a 30-pin dock connector. Charge/sync dock is bulky. No extra features.
Included earbuds are adequate at best
The iPod Shuffle has no screen
So theres no way to navigate easily among artists
Albums
Or playlists. And it only offers so-so sound quality. The player might be too small for some users

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

Dock-dongle required
Blah-quality previous-gen headphones included
Audio quality not as good as some other iPods
Small size makes iPod harder to use

Smallest and coolest digital music player in the world, 15g weight, 1GB capacity, 12-hour battery life, clips straight to clothing, great sound quality, supports iTunes Store
Lack of display will turn off some, requires £19 power adaptor if you charge battery away from computer
Just as people are getting used to the ability to squeeze entire music collections into ever-smaller players, the new micro-sized iPod shuffle is sure to elicit ‘wows’ from friends and family. It’s also a dead-cert for Christmas lists, a...
Serious music lovers will desire the flexibility of a higher-end player, which can hold significantly more music, let you browse for the tunes you want and tell you what youre listening to. For more casual listeners though, the Shuffle is a good balan...
Abstract: Small, stylish and simple to use, the Shuffle is another winner from Apple. The original iPod Shuffle didnt sound like a recipe for success. After all, what use is an MP3 player without a screen? You cant select a track to play, nor see whats bein...
Dead-simple user interface with satisfying tactile controls; integrated belt clip to keep track of the player; syncing cradle; available in five metallic colours
No screen, so no way to navigate; too small for some users; nonstandard USB syncing takes away from its plug-and-go appeal
If you like your music playback simple and your device nearly invisible, the second-generation iPod Shuffle will suit you well. But absentminded users should steer clear of this easy-to-misplace player ...

The iPod Shuffle evolves. The simplicity of the original is augmented with an even smaller case that feels like the remote control of a larger player. Its let down only by the need for a dock - and a unique dock at that. The Shuffles not for everyon...
Stylish and sturdy design; ergonomic; easy to use; long battery life; small and lightweight; built-in clip.
Only one capacity and colour available; a bit pricey; takes too long to charge.
One can say that the new iPod shuffle has a stylish, uncomplicated design, with simple clean lines. And its a testament to Apples skill at blending design with functionality that even the box can be regarded a work of art. Included with the shuffle a...

LiPod shuffle, roi du hasard et de la lecture aléatoire, évolue à nouveau dune manière plutôt logique. Alors que certains pronostiquaient sa mort, cest en fait une double bonne nouvelle qui accompagne cette mise à jour du plus compact des baladeurs ...
