Apple iPod Shuffle 1GB 2nd Generation MP3 Player Reviews

+ Excellent value - otherwise I wouldn't have come back for a second one.

- none

+ sound & size

- difficulty in downloading apple software on to a windows XP comp.

+ for the money its portability and ease of use

- i cant honestly say that for the money it has any superb product

+ I like being able to vary the volume and be able to fast forward to the next track or rewind.

- I wish there was an on off button on the lead to the headphones, so I don't have to open my coat to switch it on and off. The ear plugs are too big for my ears, so I can't get the full benefit of the volume and they keep dropping out of my ears.

+ Great Soud lightweight, easy to use

- None found

+ This was a Xmas present for my 8year old grandson. He can do everything himself, including putting songs on it. He loves it and as he has a little sister who loves to listen to it as well it has held up well so far. It has been easy to use, durable and easy to carry around.

- Can't think of any.

+ Small and easy to use. Good linkage to itunes which makes it very easy to download music of which there is a wide selection. Good starter MP3. My 8 year old loves his.

- Not easy to find a particular tune as you have to fast forward each song until you find the one you want.

+ Nice sleek and funky design which works just as well as it looks, I like the silver as it suitable for both sex's.

- Battery life could be a little better, did hold quite well but as good as it could be with our great technology

+ easy to download songs on to and easy to use

- headphones dont stay in your ears very well, but you can use different sort of headphones

+ I was impressed by the performance of something so little , the sound is very good and ease of portability with no weight to it especially for some one like myself of the older generation

- The only bad point was when I came to trying to download music from the site but I did manange to do it eventually

+ good sound quality, easily carried around,

- battery life not long enough

+ I use the ipod for when i go jogging; it is small, lightweight and easy to use.

+ great first ipod for kids at affordable price

- when you know what you CAN get with other ipods it seems a bit basic.

+ Excellent price and very good sound quality. Very small, light and portable.

- None as such other than due to the small size the lack of a screen makes it more difficult to find a particular tune. However, for the size and price it is still really great value.

+ about the size of your thumb, discreet to hide in your pocket,

- was abit dearer then you would have paid, should detail on catalogue size of shuffle, compared to the larger sizes.

+ I have never had an MP3 player before and got my ipod as a Christmas present. I had considered getting a player for ages but thought it would not get enough use. I take it absolutely everywhere with me now, I just love it. It is so compact, the sound quality is great and I would recommend it to anyone. It holds 1GB of music but if thats not enough just create different libraries in the itunes software for it all. I have over 200 songs on shuffle and there are still some I havent heard yet!

- The only down side is that the ipod cant forward to a point in a song, its either forward to the next song or previous.

+ The ipod shuffle is very easy to use, ideal for the gym or any form of training really. Its also very lightweight.

- Itunes can be a bit difficult sometimes,unless you`ve used it before can be a bit confusing until you`re used to it.

+ It is so easy to use. The sound quality is as good as the iPod Nano and for less than half the price.

+ Light, simple to operate. works well in conjunction with itunes. good clip for holing it to your clothes when playing sports.

- non really. you need to buy decent sports headphones at the same time though.

+ its small for people on the go.holds a lot of songs great value for money

- very hard to understand the instructions had to get a friend to do it for me

+ It does everything that i want from an ipod. Battery life is very good and the size is good too. Plenty of storage for the amount of music i want.

+ practible and small. can download 150 songs.Nice colors. Good choice of songs on I-Tunes

- at first very difficult to understand how to use it as the booklet didn't explain propely how to start. Very confusing.

+ Compact liight and easy to carry everywhere.

- You have to remeber the order you downloaded the tracks if you are looking for a particular song or album as no display. If this is an issue for you upgrade to the Nano.

+ Ideal for purpose. Small MP3 player with fantastic design, great colour, for a trendy nine year old the most grown up exciting present she has. Good value for money. No screen but thats fine, buy the ipod nano if you want a screen.

- None.

+ good sound quality, plenty of songs can go on. brill present, all good things come in small packages!!!!

Would be better if the light changed colour when the battery was fully charged.

+ easy to read and understand instructions

- you can only shuffle songs not have playlists

+ This is my second i-Pod shuffle and I still love it! Teeny, so easy to use and in pink too - what more could a gal ask for! I actually cried when my old i-Pod stopped working after years of daily use - and got a new one straight away, I can't live without it!

- I can't think of any....

+ bought for my 7 year old daughter. she loves the colour and the fact she can listen to it in her room without me knowing (or so she thinks). Enough memory for what she needs and easily recharged.

- very small and easily lost by little ones.

+ Good that it came in 3 colours as I needed 3 differenent ones for my nephews and niece (plus you had it in pink always a hit!)
