A separate mp3 player isn't a must-buy anymore for many people. Most people have smartphones with enough storage to fit lots of songs, and use that instead. However, there are some situations in which an mp3 player can still be useful, when going for a...
The iPod Shuffle in its current incarnation is probably the perfect music player for keeping you company during work, working out or traveling. It's so light and small you don't notice it's on you, the build quality is excellent, and despite its tiny si... |

The fourth generation Apple iPod Shuffle takes on a square form measuring 29.0 x 31 x 8. mm. It weighs 12.5g and houses 2GB of flash storage. The iPod Shuffle features a 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack for audio and USB charging, up to 15 hours of audio p...
As typical of Apple hardware, build quality on the iPod shuffle is very good, solid and premium in feel all round. From the front, to the back where the iPod Shuffle clips onto clothing: the iPod Shuffle feels great. It’s the smallest iPod Shuffle that has produced, yet the buttons are larger, making the MP3 player easier to use on-the-go or in the gym. The iPod Shuffle is also so light, you’ll b...
Sound is of very good quality, but it doesn’t quite match that of the large Apple iPod Touch. Nor does it reach its highest volume levels. It means that the iPad Shuffle isn’t quite the smaller alternative to the iPod Touch that it could be. A small 2GB capacity also fills up in no time. The supplied Apple headphones are sub-par, uncomfortable and leak a lot of sound. Purchasing a new non-Apple p...
The iPod Shuffle might not be able to store as many songs as the rest of the iPod range but for £40 you’re getting one of the best, smallest and well-built MP3 players around perfect for when hitting the gym or on the move. So long as the awful headpho... |
