Known as the clip and go iPod, Apple iPod Shuffle 2 GB (4th Generation) is the simplest form of mp3 player produced by apple. It has simple buttons that is very easy to use. It is an easier way to play music on the go. It could hold hundreds of songs, multiple playlist and has Genius mixes that automatically creates playlist of songs that go well together.

Outstanding Features:

Sleek designs – the iPod shuffle is made from a single piece of aluminum and is polished to give it an amazing shine. It is sleek and durable. You can choose from different color designs like silver, blue, green, orange, or pink.

Hundred of songs to go – with 2 GB of storage capacity, the iPod shuffle can hold hundreds of songs. That’s enough for an average person isn’t it? You’ll have enough songs that you can listen to whenever you go on exercise or when you commute or just to pass your spare time.

The iPod shuffle is currently on the 5th place in Amazon’s best seller list for mp3 players. It also has the second lowest price tag next to Coby’s MP620 player.

The pros:

First of all, it is small you can easily cover it with your clothes. It has a nice, firm clip that makes it easy to attach to anything. With just simple buttons, it is very easy to use and navigate. It also has a switch that lets you choose whether to shuffle the songs, play it in order, or turn shuffle off. It is also very easy to sync with your iTunes. Battery life is also good with up to 15 hours of audio playback. It’s different color designs and the material used in the body makes it good looking.

The cons:

I can only see very little cons with this iPod. And that is compared to other mp3 players like the Coby MP620 player, the price is just too high for a 2 GB storage capacity music player. Having the buttons occupy most of the front part makes it difficult to use the clip. You’ll need to lock the buttons before using the clip so that you won’t mess with the volume or skip the next or previous song.

Bottom line:

The iPod shuffle is only good for those who wants to just listen to music just to pass their time. I do not recommend this for exercise since sweat could jam the device. I recommend using this for travels or simply just to fill your mood when you’ve got nothing to do.

Rating:

**** 4/5

I would give this iPod a rating of 4 out of 5 stars because there are only limited cons that go with it. It is excellent if you purely just want to listen to music.
